Guest Bio: After a harrowing riches-to-rags detour in life, Jennifer DiVita clung to her faith and rebuilt herself as a solo mom and professional career woman. Because of God’s goodness, she found her way out of poverty and climbed the career ladder carrying her kids on her back to become Associate State Director of AARP. She’s also an on-air personality with WOOD TV and ABC 4 who provides positive advice on aging well, despite initially being kicked out of TV for being “too seasoned.” She published her novel, Not Your Shoe Size, a witty story about growing older and finding the silver lining after becoming silver. Jennifer offers hope that it’s possible to overcome roadblocks and pave a successful life after surrendering to God’s plan.
