Eat the Cake and Turn Left with Andi Overton

My guest this week is Andi Overton. In this episode, we touch on the importance of eating cake, returning shopping carts and not honking the car horn as soon as the light turns green. We talk about how culture shock opens your eyes and the uncomfortableness of it forces you out of your bubble to see the world in a new way - and contribute to it in a bigger and better way.
Andi’s early career experience as a police officer had her thinking everyone was a dirtbag drug runner. But the intervention and persistence of her good friend Lynette helped her see she was on a dangerous path and gave her a lifeline out. We talk stress, personal responsibility and finding and maintaining healthfulness.
Andi Overton is a higher education professional who likes researching fun topics like virtual reality and the assessment of learning. It's the only way she can work video games into her Doctor of Education dissertation from Frostburg State University. A dedicated advocate for women's empowerment, she most enjoys calling out the bs against disenfranchised people of all walks of life and making friends with the new kid sitting alone. A lover of life, she has rescued many pups and kitties and with the help of her fiancé, Stacey, can now add "fish" to her list of rescues. Because why not; we all deserve a safe spot to call home.
Andi’s hype song is Closer To Fine--The Indigo Girls. Hear it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUgwM1Ky228 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUgwM1Ky228)
