Many people over 40 are restlessly fuming, knowing they are sitting on marketable skills, ideas, and experience, yet those attributes are not being profitably applied. Often they feel stuck by circumstances, fear, unproductive mindsets, and limiting corporate structures. Stop Circling is for companies and individuals who need both inspiration and updated business plan designs to escape personal and professional roundabouts and instead to pursue "What's next?" Stop Circling provides both the inspirational perspective and solid tools to design an individual or professional future path and to get individuals there successfully. Johnson has the ability to inspire and entertain while she shares practical and proven principles that are simplistic in their approach, yet extremely powerful in application. She has created a system that can be replicated again and again to free oneself from life's roundabouts.
