Sometimes we may think we know someone who we’ve witnessed in our life, yet find out it isn’t all it appears to be to the outside world. Today I sat down with another retired English teacher, Gwen Parker. Gwen has been an inspiration to me over the years, specifically when it comes to her involvement in One-Act Plays, her students and consistently overcoming her own fears and chronic shyness. Listen in as we chat about:
Going outside the comfort zone and following the curves in the road. Pushing ourselves to what we thought was never possible.
Trusting God has a plan and when faced with retirement how important it is to find purpose and fulfilment.
Healthy competition, a weight loss adventure and striving for greatness.
Finding community and friends who are like family and hardly able to express their significance in your life.
Viewing retirement as a possibility, not as an ending.
This was such a delightful conversation and definitely creates an everlasting memory in my heart. I encourage you to connect further with Gwen via Instagram @gwenjohnsonparker her website and facebook to connect.
