Have you ever wondered how a childhood dream can shape your entire life's journey? Today, I take you on an incredible adventure through a day plagued by a massive Microsoft computer outage leading to widespread flight disruptions, all while sharing my own transformative journey into the world of aviation. From an unforgettable childhood flight that planted the seed of a dream, to the societal pressures and personal challenges that followed, including early marriage, motherhood, and years supporting my ex-husband's photography business, you'll hear how I rediscovered my passion for becoming a flight attendant. Despite a challenging post-divorce period filled with odd jobs and eventual stability at Pottery Barn for Kids, my story is a testament to resilience and the undying human spirit.
In a quieter moment, we'll revisit a poignant experience from my early days at a jewelry store, where an act of kindness led to a surprising $18,000 sale. This chapter transitions into a significant January encounter with Leigh, a colleague whose dream about me reignited my childhood aspiration. Discover how Leigh's vision motivated me to explore opportunities at the local unemployment office, leading me to an accredited flight attendant program that set me on a new, life-changing career path in just days. As we wrap up, the episode underscores the importance of spreading kindness and positivity, inviting you to appreciate and support flight attendants everywhere. Let's create a ripple effect of positive change, one small act at a time. Be blessed, be kind, be safe, and don’t forget to hug a flight attendant today!
