Sendy Mom Elise Freeman on fitness, parenting kids with special needs, and starting a business from nothing
I had so much fun talking with my neighbor and friend, Elise Freeman. We got to talk through her journey growing up in tough circumstances in the deep south as the daughter of a hard-working single mother. Elise’s journey has not been straight, but she has learned along the way receiving divine guidance and acting on the inspiration she receives. This has made her life fulfilling and meaningful. She talks about her struggles with discovering her young son’s diabetes and having to deal with that. Her entrepreneurial success with her husband has given them opportunities they never thought possible, leading to humanitarian work in South America. Learn how to make something from nothing and to support your children as they grow physically, emotionally, creatively, spiritually, and mentally. Elise’s story is inspiring and motivating. She is one of the Sendiest Mom’s I know!
