March 08, 2024 Re-tired Ep004 International Women's Day
Happy International Women's Day!
Sue & Tina welcome their first guest, retired teacher Kate Bowen. Kate and Sue taught together before they each re-tired, so sharing another version of finding new tread that was relatable was easy. Kate continues to educate, wanting to "make sure history happens". All three discuss their amazement about not having received much Women's history in their upbringings, understanding that is called his-story for a reason. Tina reminds us that, "evolution takes time."
