Claire here. You’re on my blog, ClaireDiazOrtiz.com, where I write things. Good things, bad things, things in the middle between bad and good. Today, I’m writing to ask you a kinda weird thing. Here goes. What do you need? Yup. Is there a way that I can help you? I’m not being weird. I’m genuinely [...]
One day last week, I had a bit of a field day learning about unverified (or “unconfirmed”) email newsletter subscribers.

The other day, I told you about one particular book. It’s called Platform, and I love it. It’s all about how to create a dedicated network to help support your aims and you can read more about what I thought of the book here. Today, I’m doing an interview with Michael Hyatt about the book. However, since life [...]

The worst thing to blog about is why you’re not blogging and/or why you haven’t blogged. {I bet you can guess what happens now.} Five (Great!) Reasons I Haven’t Blogged Much of Late I traveled to too many places in too short of time. On such travels I had mere moments to myself in between [...]
