Weeds are one of the biggest hassles in Arizona. The constant headache of the ever-popping weeds will become a thing of the past when you choose POPPY to spray your property.

Creating a sterile soil where weeds will not grow is the goal. We use a pre-emergent product that prevents weeds from growing. A pre-emergent application twice a year will keep your yard pristine and weed-free all year long. We also provide an application that eliminates existing weeds.

In addition to preventing and eliminating weeds, we offer a variety of landscaping services. Here are just a few:

  • Yard Maintenance
  • Tree Trimming
  • Brush Removal
  • Irrigation (new/repairs on existing)
  • Planting
  • Sod/Turf
  • Overseeding
  • Rocks/Gravel (all sizes)
  • Pavers

We’ll keep your property perfectly manicured with a maintenance program designed just for you. We’ll beautify your yard monthly, quarterly, or whatever suits your needs.

POPPY pays special attention to the details of every project to ensure the complete satisfaction of each customer. Our goal is to enhance the appearance of your home or business, so you can keep your weekends.

ABOUT 1 MILLION CUPS
Based on the notion that entrepreneurs discover solutions and engage with their communities over a million cups of coffee, the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation developed 1 Million Cups in 2012—a free program designed to educate, engage and inspire entrepreneurs around the country. Through the power of volunteers, 1 Million Cups has grown to more than 180 communities.

As a program of the Kauffman Foundation, 1 Million Cups works with entrepreneurs, empowering them with the tools and resources to break down barriers that stand in the way of starting and growing their businesses. Mr. Kauffman believed it was a fundamental right for anyone who had a big idea to be able to bring it to life—and we’re here to fulfill that mission.

OUR CULTURE
Diversity, equity and inclusion are key to the success of our programs. Nationwide, 1 Million Cups communities aim to present an inclusive and supportive front door to their local entrepreneurial ecosystems. These qualities are essential for 1MC to fulfill its mission to educate, engage and connect entrepreneurs with their communities. And they are too essential to leave to chance as the number of 1MC communities continues to grow.

ABOUT THE KAUFFMAN FOUNDATION
Founded by Ewing Marion Kauffman, the Foundation is driven to provide uncommon ways to create opportunities and connect people to the tools they need to achieve success, change their futures and give back to their communities. We believe that if you have an idea, you have a fundamental right to start a business to make it a reality.

We also believe that opportunity lies in the fields of education and entrepreneurship. Our team is based in Kansas City and made up of connectors and doers who dream big, solve problems with the communities we serve and take calculated risks to drive results.

Kelly Reeser

Kelly Reeser serves as the Director of Entrepreneurial Development for FloridaWest Economic Development Alliance.    In this role, Kelly is tasked with supporting our region’s high-growth entrepreneurs with both startup and growth strategies.  She accomplishes this goal by managing the Gulf Coast Center for Innovation & Entrepreneurship- an innovation and technology-based incubator, partnering with local entrepreneurs to host Startup Weekend Pensacola, ITEN Wired and by coordinating entrepreneurial efforts with community partners.

Kelly currently serves on the Board of Directors for Junior Achievement and The Global Corner, and is a member of the International Business Innovation Association.  She was a member of the Leadership Pensacola Class of 2013 and also serves as a volunteer with middle school students at Olive Baptist Church.

Kelly holds a Master of Arts degree in Development Management & Public Policy from Georgetown University and bachelor degrees in Spanish & Latin American Studies from Southern Methodist University.  She is a native of Pensacola, an avid traveler and loves being a mom—she enjoys spending time with her husband, Chris, daughter, Evangelina, and baby boy, Elliot.

Jim Rhodes

Jim has actively participated in the planning of the annual ITEN Wired Summit since 2012 and is in his 5th year serving as its director.

He is a native of Pensacola and a graduate of Tate High School and the University of West Florida, where he received his degree in finance. He moved to Charlotte, NC in 1997 with a goal of furthering his career in banking, but later developed a passion for information technology. Upon graduating ECPI College of Technology, he officially entered into the world of IT in 2001. After working several years as a network engineer, he and his family relocated back to Pensacola in 2007.

Jim has been employed by AppRiver since 2008 and currently manages the mobile solutions team which provides mobile device support for a global customer base of almost 300,000 users. He also serves as an advisor to the board of directors for IT Gulf Coast and as a board member for Innovation Coast.

The HAVEN Place LLC

Having relationship problems? Can’t relax, your mind always races, memories keep intruding and affect your work, family, or social life? Tried a variety of ways to fix it but nothing really worked? These are problems I can help you with.

I focus on what’s happened to you vs. what’s wrong with you in two primary areas – relationships and couples as well as trauma. In the process I also work with individuals and children. I’ve helped several thousand people regain their lives, just like this woman, and I can help you as well.

Couples I work with are often struggling with a lack of emotional and physical intimacy, they’ve lost respect and trust for each other, and have little companionship or communication. And they often have frequent arguments about finances, sex, children, social media, etc.

I help couples open up to each other, rebuild mutual respect, trust, and honesty, understand what’s not working in their relationship and why, help them come up with mutual solutions for their problems, and re-experience friendship and simple joy in just being with each other.

Past trauma, accompanied by grief,  is all too often an underlying and untreated cause of relationship, work, and health problems. Many have ongoing struggles with mental health and substance use. They feel guilty, ashamed, stressed out, damaged, alone, confused, emotionally numb, can’t sleep or concentrate, have racing thoughts, have mood swings and anger issues, worry constantly. Alcohol or other substances may have helped to a point, but also caused other difficulties. They ‘ve tried psych meds, therapy, substance rehab but nothing has really worked. They want their lives back but feel lost and out of control.

I provide outpatient therapy to help my clients identify and address those underlying causes, work with them on eight aspects of wellness, help them restore emotional and physical balance, and in the process help people regain their lives and experience a renewed sense of joy, inner peace, calmness, self-control, purpose, and meaning.

What do I do differently than others? First, I don’t focus on mental disorders. I focus on what’s happened to people, not what’s wrong with them. I also consider and help my clients explore other possible causes. I get feedback each session from my clients about how they’ve done over the past week, as well as how they think I’m helping them in each session and we track and work those results. The therapy I do is structured and we stay focused on clients’ initial problems. While we work together on new problems as they arise we also stay focused on those primary problem areas.

The majority of those I’ve worked with over the years have had significant improvement, many 30-points or more compared to their pre-therapy scores in as little as 10 sessions.

Thank you for all you are doing for me, on and off the table. It means a lot to me. Kelly S. [former client]

Thank you Ray for everything. You have helped me so much. Billie G. [former client]

Have some questions or want some help? Send me an email asking for a free consultation. Include your availability in the coming week and I’ll respond within 24-hours with a day and time that works for both of us.

Move Your AE

I help you take command of your career by showing you how to document and promote your full career value.

The “Æ” (pronounced “ash”) is the symbol that now represents the sum of your skills, talents, education, experiences, credentials and so much more about you. It represents your entire career value, not just a set of skills.

To get ahead in your job, or to get another job, you need to Know, Grow, and Show your career value, not just what is on a resume or your LinkedIn profile. Competition is tough out there, and without this knowledge, you will be left behind.

Buy “Move Your Æ (ash)” now on Amazon (paperback or Kindle):

http://bit.ly/MoveYourAshBook

Once you have started reading it (at least through Chapter 7), let’s connect and discuss. You will have a new view on your career at that point.

 

Bri Snellgrove

Kolleen Edwards Chesley has 25 years of experience in the financial services industry and spent the majority of her career as a financial advisor. In that role, Kolleen was responsible for finding her own clients and quickly learned the value of networking, networking, and even more networking. It was in 2004 and during her sales career that she, along with two other professional business women met for lunch with the purpose of helping to motivate each other after Hurricane Ivan had blown through our area and changed not only the physical landscape of the area, but also impacted the business landscape as well. Out of that lunch was born what is now a thriving not-for-profit organization for business women.

Kolleen currently serves full-time as the Founding Director of what was originally called Women’s Business Lunch and is now known as Powerful Women of the Gulf Coast. The organization advocates a culture of confidence building, lifelong learning, collaboration, empowering others and a spirit of charitable giving.

The mission of Powerful Women of the Gulf Coast is to promote, advance and improve women in business and the organization accomplishes these in a number of different ways.

–          Monthly networking meetings in Pensacola and Gulf Breeze. These are open to all women and are free to attend. We run a structured meeting with open networking, an educational segment, a sponsor presentation, an opportunity to hear about the businesses of all attendees, and a whole lot of fun. We frequently hear from attendees that these meeting are chock full of value and a great way to build new relationships to help support their businesses. The Pensacola meetings include lunch paid for by our sponsors.

–          Powerful Women of the Gulf Coast Magazine. We have produced 4 editions of this print magazine. Each edition features interviewees of local successful leaders in business who share their honest thoughts on leadership, success, obstacles, and inspiration as it relates to women in business. We also include other articles on leadership, networking, and other skill development. It is geared for anyone in business or looking for business motivation and tips. Our goal is for this to be a quarterly publication, however the magazine is currently on hold as we explore graphic designers. Our latest edition can still be found on our website.

–          Annual Pursue Your Passion Women’s conference. To help celebrate National Business Women’s Week, we hold a full day conference during the third week of October along with several other events leading up to the conference. We feature a national keynote speaker, several local successful leaders in business, along with Speed Networking, an Experience Hall, structured and unstructured networking exercises and plenty of laughter, relationship building and excitement. Our attendees are not only motivated by the conference but they leave with tangible tips they can take back and implement in their businesses to lead them to success.

Classes focused around four main areas of business: Networking, Marketing, Business Efficiency, and Sales Skills.

Our Mission

We help local business leaders get the word out about the important work they’re doing to serve their market, their community, and their profession.

We support and celebrate business by sharing positive business stories that traditional media ignores. Some media leans left. Some media leans right. We lean business.
