Ep8: Courage to Thrive — On today’s show, Rev. Dr. Robert Flanagan interviews storyteller and humanitarian Kip Azzoni Doyle
Bob asks Kip:
- We’ve known each other since our high school years. Let’s start with a background question. You’re a mom with two adult children. When so many people our age are thinking of retirement and slowing down. What made you decide to do even more?
- How did you get so deeply and personally involved with helping military veterans?
- What has that work involved?
- From your work experience and what you’ve witnessed, how would you describe courage?

- If there were a younger version of you listening to or watching this podcast, what would you recommend they do?
