Benefits of Accountability Groups from Shalyce Tyson @shalycetyson -

“When I gather with my accountability group, I get the fuel, the ideas and the motivation to keep going - personally and professionally. We laugh. We hype each other up. We share tips. We are transparent. We congratulate one another. And we hold each other accountable to achieving the goals we share within the group. It's support in action and we all need and desire support. So the biggest benefit for me is knowing I have people in my corner who I can reach out to, and then being able to be a source of support and accountability for them, too. - Shalyce Tyson @shalycetyson
