Are you on the lookout for a biz bestie, or maybe just want to improve your relationship with a coworker or friend? This episode is for you!
Joining me today is Aubrey Edwards, the person I’ve worked with the closest every day of my life since we started working together over 20 years ago! Aubrey was there when I founded Bright Beginning Children’s Learning Center and also helps behind the scenes with Leading Lady and the Annapolis Collective. Needless to say, we know each other very well by now!
In today’s episode, we share eight key factors that have helped us develop and maintain a close relationship in our 20 years of working together.
Aubrey Edwards is the CEO of Bright Beginning Children’s Learning Center. She is consistently completing professional development hours and is currently taking online courses at Anne Arundel Community College to further her education. Aubrey has earned her Teacher Certification, Positive Education Certification, Coaching & Mentoring Certification, and Directors of Operations Certification.
She started with BBCLC when they first opened their doors in September of 2004 and has a total of 24 years of experience working in Early Education. Aubrey has always been passionate about working with children and making a difference in every child’s life that walks through BBCLC’s doors. Her mission has always been to create a safe, nurturing and fun environment for all children to learn and grow.
Aubrey currently resides in Glen Burnie, Maryland, with her two boys, Cruz (age 9) and Enzo (age 3). They love trying new experiences, spending as much time outside, and going out to eat.
In Today’s Episode We Discuss:
- How Aubrey and I started working together over 20 years ago
