What keeps you busy during the week?
In 2015, I retired from fundraising. Previously, I was the VP of Advancement at FIU. I left there and opened a company teaching business etiquette and protocol. I sold that business and went to work for one of my clients, The National Young Arts Foundation. I was their Vice President of Development for five years. And then, I retired from all that, got a real estate license, sold my house and bought another house to redo.

Sandra
What keeps you busy during the week?
My husband and I both work from home. He works in utilities and I work in tech. We actually just sent the kids back to school last Monday. Prior to that, our weeks were virtual school here. Both of my boys are neuro-diverse. One of them is ADHD and the other one is on the autism spectrum. The younger one, who's on the spectrum, was starting to regress, and it had been 337 days that they had been home. We said, 'now that your grandparents are vaccinated and there are safety protocols, it's time for you guys to go back to school.'
Alina
What keeps you busy during the week?
I get up at 6:20am, make my coffee, work out from 7-8, hit the shower, while hair is being blow dried I answer emails. I arrive at office between 9:30-10. I am crazy busy with my design team, finding inspiration for new collections. After I work I try to spend time with the people that I love. I try to make the most of every day. It is a gift knowing that it’s always a beautiful day to be alive.
Stephen
What keeps you busy during the week?
I'm an attorney. I love South Florida. I'm an avid sports fan and a weekend warrior. We help homeowners get underpaid or denied claims honored by people's own insurance companies. Basically, we help the little guy. It could be homeowners, car insurance, life insurance, disability - anytime an insured person has a contract with their own insurance company, that's when we step in to keep the insurance company honest. Most of the time it's homeowner's stuff like hurricane claims or a pipe breaks in your house and the insurance company tries to give you like a thousand bucks for all the damage.

I am the Dean of the School of Education and Human Development at Florida International University. So, I spend a lot of my time at work.
Maria
What keeps you busy during the week?
I'm usually producing a lot of yogurt, cooking, and shopping for ingredients. I spend a lot of time, mostly in my head, creating and imagining how to combine flavors. Then I'm running around, giving the yogurt away between Broward and Miami. I drive around all day going from my house in Weston, dropping off my son at school or picking him up, then I go to the factory where it's just me, my friend Beth, and my husband Ricardo. We always make dinner at home, and if everybody's home, then we sit down and have a dinner. Sometimes, I get home around 2:00 AM, depending on how busy we are. Yeah, it's a lot of work.

Each day is different, and our orchard projects are often prioritized based on timely inputs needed and also where the fruit trees are blooming and fruit is developing. Kiki is a certified teacher of the Transcendental Meditation Program and the full-time director of the Miami TM Program.
