Do you have your “dangerous amount of coffee” ready for another episode of Coffee and Grit?!? New this week, Jason Tracey sits down with Christel Meyer, a Difference Maker who transitioned from physical therapy to publishing Stroll magazine for the Oak Pointe community in Brighton Michigan. Christel shares her inspiring journey of overcoming self-doubt, embracing change, and building meaningful connections through her work. From planning successful events like a trunk-or-treat with 150 kids to fostering relationships with residents and sponsors, Christel exemplifies resilience and intentionality.
Christel also reveals her heart warming vision to and plans to launch Your Pet's Best Friend. This will be a nonprofit supporting families with pets and will provide her the opportunity to give purpose to her son Charlie, on the autism spectrum. It will also help food-insecure households, through dog-walking services and financial aid. Jason and Christel dive into the power of community, the value of stepping out of comfort zones, and the personal growth that comes from pursuing dreams. Along the way, they uncover unexpected family connections and reflect on life’s serendipitous moments.
This conversation is packed with lessons on authenticity, perseverance, and the importance of giving back. Tune in to hear how Christel is lighting up her community, one connection at a time!
