How did I get here?

Published on 14 November 2024 at 10:11

Imagine sitting in a seat near a soccer pitch that overlooks St. Peter's Basilica, watching your incredibly talented son playing "football" in Rome. He's doing his thing...slaying the game as a very talented 17-year-old attacking midfielder. Then imagine having a though that must be straight from God himself -- "You could do this, too."

You look around you...and think..."I don't think God is speaking to me about my athletic prowess -- perhaps He is telling me to finally get my Master's...in Rome! Amazing! But how and where?

After MUCH research, I formulated my diabolical, life changing plan that would kickstart my Act II. I found Rome Business School...the perfect fit for a professional who has already been married, raised three boys, taken continuing ed. classes from Wharton while running and selling the family business (more on this later), and who needs a new challenge. 
I immediately applied thinking there wasn't a chance in hell that I would be accepted...until I was. I got a seat in the International Business and Corporate Law Program -- my ultimate professional dreams were coming true! All I had to do was to convince my amazing husband and thoughtful children how they would benefit from my leaving them in Indiana for a year, to go to school in Rome.
