There are questions I ask that take them a minute to think about and answer, like: "What's something you've learned about yourself recently?" "What's something you're proud of yourself for since the last time we talked?" "Who has supported you lately?"

When I think of “Vegas,” what comes to mind are lots of lights, slot machines, noise, people, and of course, big, bountiful buffets.
