Today's riff is Our Personal Pathways: A Talk With Michele Green.

Welcome to Episode 122 of the Roll With Peace, In Mind podcast!

"...you notice this weakness in this person, and you take advantage of them..." This is in referral to an observation from interviewing the suspects...

Talking with my buddy from high school was so inspiring and informative. She has created a life with freedom, abundance and adventure.

Her goals: To Live a Life creating new ways where she can combine her love and expertise in the area of Medicine as well Dance and Exercise and to be able to share this with the public in that they are keeping active, monitoring their health in a way that is fun and sustainable.

Michele has been a Physician Assistant for 30 + years. A career that allowed for Autonomy, Freedom to explore and work in various Health care settings for a great salary but free of the responsibility or setting up her own practice or joining a practice which consumed 90+ percent of her time and energy.

She has worked in inpatient and private outpatient settings in the area of OB/GYN, Geriatrics, Adolescents, Substance Abuse treatment, and is currently working in Correctional Medicine and Per Diem in a Holistic GYN Office and as a Sexual Assault Forensic Examiner.

Michele has also danced most of her life and is heavily involved in “Steppin” a dance form originating out of Chicago, Illinois. To date, she is still in the medical field full time as well as offering events and activities with her Steppin company which includes workshops in Ghana, Africa.
