Summary

A deeply personal, humorous and enlightening story about a woman's journey from a high-level executive career in corporate America into the quiet, humbling world of caring for aging parents. Shannon Ingram left her thriving career in marketing communications for what she initially thought would be a brief time-out to care for her parents. When nothing went according to her plan, she chose to ride the wave of learning a new way of living outside of the corporate world and the results are humorous, authentic and inspiring. In addition to the story of her journey, Shannon shares the eight "footprints" or qualities that served her on the path - qualities that anyone can use when faced with similar challenges integrating business and family issues.
