I grew up in East Tennessee. "My people" are Dolly's people. And yet, in this current dilemma we face, we are struggling to overcome so many polarizing (mostly false, IMHO) stories.

I guess, if you are like me, you just didn't see the loss of the world's most beloved human being on your "Bingo Card" right now. What is clear to me, after having done all this research, is that SHE knew her time was almost up... and, wow, it's so inspiring to see how intentional she was about getting things in place to benefit so many. From books, to healthcare, to job opportunities, to recovery from events like hurricanes, covid, and fires... She "Tried" to be the first one up that hill, always with a smile and a spring in her step. Just, phenomenal. I am so proud to be of her cultural heritage.

Here I am with my two grown kids in Iceland. It was a once-in-a-lifetime trip for us. So beautiful.

Y'all, if we are not taking care of and planning for the upcoming generations, we are missing something in our calling.

Join in on this webinar and then let me know your thoughts. Dolly's "place in history" will definitely have something to do with love, inspiration, and values-driven purpose. That stuff takes real courage.
