Love your inspirational story 🩷My daughter just started her teaching career & I keep telling her on tough days that she is going to change lives.

Enjoy the 80s movies! SO many great ones - don’t forget St. Elmo’s Fire, Ferris Bueller, Breakfast Club & all the John Hughes masterpieces 💕

That's so sweet about your daughter. I still remember so many of my teachers and they really did transform me. Besides parenting, it's probably the most important job in the world. Also, yassss to John Hughes!!!

I love that you inspired someone to follow their dreams! So great that your research takes you back to the 80s. Those movies will be fun to watch and discuss. Sign me up if you want to watch and chat about one of them!

I absolutely believe this about you inspiring your friend's husband! You are very inspirational - and I admire your work ethic. (Still so amazed at how much you got done on Nantucket...) Cheers

I found you inspirational! I think we don't realize the positive impact we have on people since so little of it is quantifiable. xo
