Margie Smith Holt, Author, “Not On Any Map”
Manage episode 358826353 series 2977425
Please welcome to our show, Margie Smith Holt, who did something almost imaginable. She sailed across the Atlantic - twice - in a hand-made, 30-foot boat, only just having learned to sail, with one crew member. Talk about your mid-life regroup! Margie is my long-time friend, an Emmy-winning journalist whose first book, Not On Any Map, One Virgin Island, Two Catastrophic Hurricanes, And The True Meaning Of Paradise, is a MUST read! Margie was working as a reporter in Philadelphia when her life came crashing down at the age of 40. The man of her dreams decided to leave to seek the “glamour” of being a war correspondent, and suddenly she looked around and didn’t see a future where she was. A vacation to St. John changed all of that, turning what was supposed to be a few weeks into something life changing for Margie. In between, she also battled cancer, and recovered. And I thought Margie was the quiet, demure type when we worked together. You will NOT want to miss our interview, on ALL platforms of #DeborahKobyltLIVE today beginning at 10amPST/1pmEST. Please invite your friends, too! #DeborahZaraKobylt
