I ALWAYS give a reference whether it is locally or from out of state. I also recommend ladies in my area to clients who ask when I am not around or traveling (which is alot LOL) I believe and was taught that caring is sharing LOL. And we are just one big family who should support one another afterall we are all here for the same reason. In my eyes it's bad karma not to share. Just my opinion and what I believe. I also think its nice to get to know who the refernece friendly gals are (they are the ones I DONOT HESITATE to refer). Hugs Aways JoJo
