Fumbling And Soaring

What does a wife, mother, and nurse do when she yearns to pursue her dream job while her husband is unemployed and has not worked in a year? She gathers her family closer under her wings, and she jumps. Fumbling and Soaring is about how Gina Miller-Meinema mostly hit the snooze button on her internal alarms, ignored the signs, and disregarded her life-teachers until she was thirty-six years old. It is a compilation of stories about how Gina snapped awake and stayed awake long enough to listen, be alert, and do what needed to be done despite her fears, or even her comfort, which urged Gina to stay put. Be practical. Be responsible. Live life the same. Don't ever change. Well no more! Each chapter is an anecdote on its own, but weaves into one narrative about how Gina finally quit nursing to be a writer during a time when she was the only source of income for her family. They tell the tale of lovely and amazing people, coincidences, butterflies, and birds that led Gina to this life-altering decision where she decided to take a chance on herself for her own happiness, and for her family's happiness too. It is one story, in one person's life, about fumbling towards flight and learning to soar.
