Our latest Breakfast with the Boss event took place yesterday at The Westin Copley Place, Boston. This was the second time we've been able to host one of these events, and it was an excellent opportunity to meet our Gold Club members and hear their Six Star stories. It is so entertaining and inspiring to hear directly from our community and we're already excited for next week's event in London.
