Kim Frank is an adventurer, writer, and storyteller. She is constantly terrified of almost everything but never lets her fear stop her from going any less than all the way.
Today, she shares her story. She talks about her parents’ first attempt to buy a house and the struggle to realize that she was intelligent. She shares how her experience working in a daycare led her to study the policy of early childhood education. She muses on the experience of adopting a baby and explains why she doesn’t regret leaving her career to raise her child. She talks about the process of learning to write and shares the story of when she met Anthony Doerr, author of All the Light We Cannot See. She shares her experience with the elephants in India and the urgency of their situation.
“FOR ME, EXPLORATION IS JUST NEATER AND SWEETER WHEN I CAN WRITE ABOUT IT.”

SPACESHIP NOT REQUIRED
I’m Kathy Sullivan, the only person to have walked in space and gone to the deepest point in the ocean.
I’m an explorer, and that doesn’t always have to involve going to some remote or exotic place. It simply requires a commitment to put curiosity into action.
In this podcast, you can explore, reflecting on lessons learned from life so far and from my brilliant and ever-inquisitive guests. We explore together in this very moment from right where you are… spaceship not required.
Welcome to Kathy Sullivan Explores.
