You might be bored this summer, but Jess Ronne is not! You will not be bored listening to her share her story. 

She is a mom who had a problem; her son didn't fit very well into the world. She realized though, that she is a problem solver and would some day name a non-profit in her son, Lucas' honor. Her child had disabilities and going through that process with caring for her son, her late husband passed from cancer and her current spouse's health starts to take a toll. What could she do? Having 8 children and wanting to solve this problem, started a non-profit providing respite care for caregivers.

Who provides care for the caregivers? This is where Jess comes in! She is a true change maker, inspiration, and incredible mother, who goes rogue beyond measure for her family.
