Donna Fisher author of People Power.
In her book I.e. Chapter 3 Ms. Fisher emphasizes the importance of "connections to count on".  She tells of her favorite cartoon where Ziggy climbs the mountain & speaks to the Sage as to the meaning of Life?

The Sage says to Ziggy, "Life?  Why life is just one darn thing after another.  I thought everyone knew that!"

Well, when that next "darn thing" happens, contacting one of these referrals might be the best thing you can count on.
