Manage episode 367387665 series 2951280
Episode #62. "Monday is Nan. Tuesday is Maryanne. Wednesday is Leslie. Thursday is Lisa. And Friday is Susan. It was an act of love, an act of friendship. . . "
Many of us enjoy walking with friends. But the power of walking and friendship is extra inspiring in today's episode. Leslie Hooton, author of three novels and a true inspiration, had to learn to walk multiple times throughout her life because of a stroke she had when she was born and numerous surgeries she's endured since. In this heartwarming episode, Leslie shares how friends each took an assigned day in spring 2020 when her beloved gym closed so that Leslie's muscles would get the essential movement necessary to keep her on her feet and healthy. She still has each walking partner three years later.
This conversation is a beautiful testament to the power of human connection and the resilience of the human spirit.
Meet Leslie Hooton
Leslie is the author of three novels. Her most recent book, After Everyone Else, was the winner of an Indie Book Award. Leslie says her best quality is her village of friends. Her second book is dedicated to them. Leslie often remarks that some people have a stroke of luck, she had a stroke at birth. The limited use of her right side and numerous surgeries have allowed Leslie a unique perspective, which she brings to her writing. Leslie uses dictation for her writing and often jokes “I haven’t typed a single word."
