In this first episode of the newly rebranded Fortunate Events Podcast, I’m joined by Carey Donnelly, the Executive Director of Adria Women’s Health, and her husband, Sean Donnelly (one of my clients at IMS with Web Grass). Carey shares powerful stories about overcoming challenges and the strength of community support, offering valuable wisdom on how rejection can actually be a redirection in our lives. Sean, speaking from his experience as a business owner, reminds us that rushing decisions in haste can lead to waste, while taking time to be thoughtful ultimately pays off in the long run. Tune in to hear how Carey and Sean first met, and now, happily married, they share an inspiring testimony. It’s an episode full of great insights and life lessons. Stay tuned!
