Please remember that this is the month of Movember, a time to help raise funds for organizations that are fighting health issues that are not often discussed – prostate and testicular cancer. Please honor the men in your life. If you have ever wondered how you can say thank you for the information and value that you receive as an Atomic Insights community member, one answer is that you can support a cause that’s important to me by visiting my Movember page and making a small gift.

Thank you in advance for you generosity.
