In this episode, I share from a Wikipedia article, the ups and the major downs of the life of Joanne Rowling… better known as J.K. Rowling, the author of the 7 book Harry Potter Series! In her own words she said, “She was as poor as one could be and not be homeless,” about the time she lived in a flat she described as mouse infested. How can a woman go from being in the ‘poor house’ to being the highest paid author of all time? It only took a bit of imagination!  I am your host, Marci Nettles. I have had a lifetime of opportunities where I had the choice to Breakdown or Breakthrough. It is my hope this Podcast may become your light in the darkness, as you listen to the stories of people I consider “heroes.” Each one had a point where they too had to choose to either Breakdown or Breakthrough! Thank you for listening! For a copy of the article shared in this episode, go to   Find Marci at marcinettles(.)com
