Leslie Jackson is the author of her book titled “Change Course; One Lady’s Race from Acceptance to Adventure”. She has professionally raced cars on a WISSOTA dirt track for 7 years and is the co-founder, president & CFO of a top 5 Minnesota commercial roofing company for the past 14 years.
Leslie and I have a great conversation and you’ll hear us discuss how she was teased for a rare skin condition which gave her red spots all over her body and what she did to minimize this teasing. You’ll also hear about how the death of her sixteen-year-old brother, when she was only fourteen, affected her and her family. She shares with us her addiction and attraction to men with addictive personalities affected her and how and why she ultimately “changed course” to find a life of love and joy.
Leslie believes God has given everyone unique gifts and encourages you to dig deep, grab hold of your potential, and live life to its fullest. She also invites you to live with love and meaning, act with purpose, and aim to make a positive difference in the world.
