Show Notes

Betty Martinez Lowery is an icon in her community. She has had a very impressive career, holding numerous leadership roles, serving on several non-profit boards and receiving various awards for her achievements and community involvement.

She is going through a major transition in her life as she was recently laid off from a job she loved due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Betty was the Senior Manager of Corporate Citizenship with Walt Disney World where she led a team that developed community outreach and contribution strategies that made the greatest impact. 

She says however, that her most important role is that of wife, mother and grandmother. She has been married to her middle school sweetheart for 45 years. She is also the proud mother of four grown children and grandmother to 7 grandchildren ranging from 24 to 6 years in age.

Join us as we discuss her transition into retirement, her thoughts on family and how social media helped her overcome grief. We also discussed her newest award, the Don Quijote Lifetime Achievement Award and what that means for her.
