Author, teacher, and friend Nikki Shannon Smith shares how she was pulled away from teaching by realizing her dream in writing.  The spark that led her to be an award-winning author of more than 20 children’s and y/a reader books was when she saw the example of other women who made “changes to their lives that allowed them to be themselves, pursue their dreams, and seek their truth.”  Yes, Nikki understands what it is to Re-tire! 

Be sure to read her new book, Stranded, hitting bookstores September 17th!
