Typeset in Minion Pro by codeMantra To my wife, best friend, and emotional rock, Denise. The concept of Blendification was born when we took our vows and it took flight with our daughters. The unity within our family sparked this concept that connects all aspects of life to realize our individual and collective potential. You, Brittany, and Brooke are the inspiration for Blendification even though I am not sure any of you quite buy into the “iFication” of the English language. The three of you are my energy and motivation, and without you I would never grasp or pursue my personal potential. I love you!
