On the Cover
I walked into the room starry eyed. You could
call it celebrity geeking. I was a bit nervous
about meeting someone with such a high
profile. Maybe even a little intimidated. I had a
good talk with my associate Christina Crews,
who told me about Rosetta’s compelling
experience and set up the interview. I knew
when I confirmed, that this was going to be
different. I knew that there would something
about this story that would change lives.
Rosetta is a down-to-earth, striving to
balance the high demands of work and family,
just like the rest of us.
Rosetta’s life dramatically changed when her
health began to decline in 2012, but she would
say that the experience has made her
stronger.
Heavily impacted by her ordeal,
Rosetta has a few simple
goals, and we sat down
together to talk about
her story, her passion
and her new beginning.
By the end of it, my initial
thought had been
confirmed…I was changed.
I came away encouraged, and I
was inspired to be more
appreciative of life, of my health,
and of others. I hope that learning
more of Rosetta’s story will do the
same for you.
