Wisdom From The Coop
Who am I? Why am I here? Why is suffering a part of life? Wisdom from the Coop is a compilation of creative conversations about many of life’s questions.The host, Betsy Charles is a hip-hop dancing, Adidas wearing, veterinary radiologist who wants to change the world. She has a unique perspective on how to live, due to having walked through the valley of the shadow of death with her beloved late husband. The co-host, Clay Maranville, is a college kid who has benefited from having Betsy as a boss and mentor. He wants other young people to jump into the conversation, so they can consider what it means to live into who they are. Along the way, we will invite many others to share their perspectives on the questions we will ask. Everyone is welcome here! Bring your whole self into this space. We hope to create a community of connected people interested in exploring what it means to thrive.

How often do we respond to the question, how was your week with busy? We feel that it is more often than not and today we get into why that is the case. It comes down to our identity in that we do not want to disappoint others by saying no to their requests. Betsy gets us to realize that saying no is needed and there should not be any hard feelings toward those who may not have the time or energy for us in the moment. She also shows a side of her that we never saw coming.
