Life Lessons:
Royale Watkins

Well, looky here.  GEM Nation is doing it big in 2013.  For those of you who will be in New York City on January 20th (and without a TV, cough-cough, Sweet Retreats, cough-cough) you’ll definitely want to check out Royale Watkins’s show.  Royale and his wife, April, have been so kind to share their Life Lessons with us before his big day.  If you have a major event you’d like to highlight (or even if you don’t) send us an email and we will get the questions to you.  Now take it away, Royale!
