Double 7 President, Pete Chatmon and Creative Director, Candice Sanchez McFarlane…

Last night Team Epiphany threw an intimate launch party for the We Resist Simple Lifestyle Community. They chose the Library Room at the Soho House — an appropriate spot for something like this.

Mirror with Tanqueray on it + some clean glasses…

Be sure to visit my WE RESIST SIMPLE page to check out some more images. And thanks to everyone that’s been joining the conversation. Keep on rating and commenting on my posts … I’m trying to deliver an entrepreneurs handbook with every blog. My latest is on how to control that first impression, since you never get a second chance!

This Thursday, July 30th, swing on out to Brooklyn Bridge Parl and check out our friend Jesse Ash’s great short documentary called ICEBOX BLUES. The short goes on around 8pm but for good seats they recommend getting there between 6pm and 8pm. The films opening for Hitchcock’s “To Catch A Thief”

ICEBOX BLUES SYNOPSIS:
Major crises don’t usually come from broken appliances, but when his mom’s fridge died, a seemingly small event leads the filmmaker to some big questions about energy consumption.
