Writing New Chapters with Jeanie Shaw

“She always wanted to do something to change the world, and she considered for a minute that going into politics might be the way. But she changed and she grew through challenges, travels, and her pursuit of faith. She spent 45 years leading in the ministry. Now, only a short time after the loss of the love of her life, she sat down with me to chat about it all. I am so grateful for her strength and her willingness to open her heart to all of us. Stay tuned for this chat with a woman who is over 60 and in pursuit of her PhD. Filled with grace, and faith, and wisdom, Jeanie Shaw is coming up next. Just another amazing F50Woman.”
