Welcome to Tea Toast and Trivia.
Thank you for listening in.
I’m your host, Rebecca Budd, and I look forward to sharing this moment with you.
Today, we have the pleasure of speaking with Marian Beaman, an award-winning teacher who has transitioned into a compelling storyteller. In her memoir, “Mennonite Daughter: The Story of a Plain Girl,” Marian shares her journey growing up in mid-twentieth century Pennsylvania, revealing both the charms and challenges of her upbringing. She reflects on her transformation from a sheltered provincial girl to a woman who embraces her authentic self, all while navigating the complexities of childhood abuse and the importance of forgiveness.
Listeners – you can connect with Marian on her website, MarianBeaman.com, Amazon, and Goodreads. You are only an internet click away from a journey that will enrich your soul.
Until next time we meet, safe travels, wherever your adventures lead you.
