How Rotarians Can Help Others Reach Their Potential
Dr Ann Taylor, a new Rotarian, is a writer and former psychotherapist who helps people maximize their potential-with an amazing tool she calls “Your PEP Chart”.
She strongly believes that it’s never too late to move ahead, in spite of any pain or difficulties we may be experiencing in our lives, our careers or our relationships.
Her Wed., July 18th talk between 7:30- 8:30 AM at the Millersville Oak Leaf Manor location at 2101 Wabank Rd., will be tailored to “How Rotarians Can Help Others Reach Their Potential.”
Dr Taylor grew up Amish and is writing about “The Benefits Of Being Amish”. While completing 8th grade, her family left the church after Uncle Dan, the Bishop, excommunicated her father and grandfather for supporting Amish factory owners who refused to sell their manufacturing business. She went on to earn three degrees including a Doctorate from Temple. Her background can be viewed on her website WWW.DrAnnTaylor.com.
