Ep. 191 Women’s History Month offers a unique opportunity to reflect on the often-overlooked impact that women have on our journey through life. Today, I’m sharing a deeply personal chapter of my life and the profound impact of Anita Nunley, the woman who saw my potential when I couldn’t see it myself. 💬 “Acknowledge those individuals that have impacted your life—it makes a big difference.” At 16, I made a choice that led me down a difficult path—dropping out of high school and facing the juvenile detention system. But Anita’s honest and compassionate guidance shifted my trajectory, leading me from a troubled teen to an honorary doctorate recipient. Her words not only saved me but inspired me to be a guiding light for others. 🎧 Tune in as I discuss: ✅ How one mentor can change your life’s direction ✅ The importance of acknowledging those who uplift us ✅ Why sharing our struggles can empower others ✅ How resilience and growth lead to unexpected success Connect with Maryann Website: https://www.maryannriveradannert.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryannriveradannert/ This episode is a thank you to Anita Nunley and a reminder to all of us: express gratitude to those who have shaped your journey. Who has made an impact in your life? I’d love to hear your story.  #FearlessFridays #MentorshipMatters #Gratitude #Resilience #WomensHistoryMonth  Learn more about your ad choices.
