Un-con-trol-la-ble definitionā€¦ Christine HerbertšŸ˜Š

As Christine and I talked, it became clear that she and I are very different. I like being in control, Christine, yeah; not so much.

Because of her personality, Christine has had quite a few extraordinary experiences, like spending twenty-seven months as a Peace Corps volunteer in Zambia. Or managing a non-profit in Nepal. After thinking about it, maybe weā€™re not that different. I did deliver Amazon for awhile.

Christineā€™s interview was fun and thereā€™s a number of ā€œlife eventsā€ that we shared a laugh over. Her college experience was, well different. Great education, but no dancing. She got a degree in biology, but her career was mostly spent as a massage therapist. She talks about that too.

But a big part of her story was her Peace Corps experience. She recalls her Zambia time in her new book, ā€œThe Color of the Elephantā€. She explains the title and it does not have anything to do with an elephant encounter.
