Paying It Back (Vannoy's Story)
In this episode of the Stories That Sparkle Podcast, Vannoy shares her experience, strength and hope in going from a Zero to a 12 plus. She felt like she was shame. Today, she lives a life of paying back all that she has been given of the past fifty-six years. She has an beautiful message of hope, love and service to share with all of us.
This is the sixth recording session of the Discoball Tour. And for this one, I got the added benefit of spending a few hours with Vannoy at her house on my way to Amarillo. It was a long, wonderful day that reminded me how grateful I am for the wisdom of so many others in my life. And the reminder: it’s only [fill in the day of the week you’re in].
So, I invite you to get comfortable, sit back, and listen in.
