THE ART OF CONVERSATION AND SENTIMENTS

Vanady believes in the art of conversation, being personable and expressing sentiments. All of which are a part of human nature and building healthy relationships. She states, "In today's world, we are losing interpersonal skills due to technology. As a result, we send 'thank you' notes through e-cards, or no thank you notes at all. We send e-cards for special occasions and holidays, or we don't send cards at all. While e-cards are nice, they don't replace the personal sentiment that is shared by sending a hand-written note or card with personal sentiments of celebration, sympathy, appreciation, etc." For that reason, she started her own company, Positive Stationery & Gifts, LLC, to rekindle the art of conversation and human sentiments.
