What happens when a story refuses to be forgotten?In this Spark Short, we talk about a book that took decades to become real — not because it was being written, but because it was being lived.What started as cassette tapes mailed back and forth between a father and daughter slowly became a memoir spanning war, reinvention, service, and legacy. From fighter pilot missions in Vietnam to starting a brand-new business at 56 — and publishing a book at nearly 90 — this is a reminder that reinvention doesn’t belong to the young.We talk about:Why so many people carry a “book inside them” but never release itHow technology (and AI) made preserving this story possibleWhy some projects are meant to be labors of love — not profitThe power of finishing something meaningfulAnd what it looks like to keep creating sparks, no matter your ageThis conversation is about memory, courage, service, and honoring the stories that shaped us — before they disappear.✨ If you’ve ever thought “one day, I’ll write it” — this one’s for you.Check out the book "One Of The Few: A True Account of Courage and Stepping into the Fight" On Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/One-Few-Account-Courage-Stepping/dp/B0DWYRT8YRKeep SparkingIf this conversation resonated with you:Follow Spark Me wherever you listen to podcasts so you never miss a Spark ShortShare this episode with a friend navigating loss, caregiving, or a changing family dynamicLeave a rating or review — it helps other women in their second act discover the show
