Accountant to Artist: Being Brave in a Whole New Life

Send us a text

Lise Spence-Parsons is an accountant turned artist who moved to the United States from Great Britain in her mid 30's. She had been working in the corporate world-she calls it "corporate madness"-for almost 20 years and realized how exciting it would be to get out of that "rat race" when the opportunity presented itself. 

Listen in as she talks to Kim about the challenges and benefits of moving to a whole new country:

• The culture shock of a trip to the grocery store 
• Being promised a white Christmas and the cold of Minnesota
• How her love of creating was rekindled when she came to America and the stories of her melted crayon projects as a child
• Her philosophy of life being full of chapters and her belief that she has a few more left in hers
• Her dream of writing books and making that come true

Lise Spence-Parsons creates beaded jewelry and watercolor artwork which she offers on her website: www.lottiestrinkets.com. You can email Lise at [email protected] for more information. Watch for her book "The Remains of Men" to be published later this year and her current book  The Shorts, a collection of short stories available in paperback and e-format.
