Learning all about astrology was the intended focus of this week’s Conversation with Cheryl Fair, but it turned into so much more. Cheryl shared much of her life story including how she overcame a very tough childhood and met many challenges in her search for meaning and happiness. Her curiosity and creativity motivated her to become accomplished in so many ways. Though not making it past 10th grade, Cheryl became a clothing designer for musical artists, a photographer, an award winning filmmaker, a painter, a published author, an astrologer and even a lawyer.
One of the students remarked, “I really learned a lot about life. She went through so many struggles and came out as a positive creative woman and she really inspires me.”
We are very thankful for the time that Cheryl shared with us.

With a focus on the wonders and ways of travel, TCS Trustee Fleesie Hubbard shared a “Conversation with…” the students. Fleesie talked about her many travels to over 30 countries that began when she was 12 years old on a class trip to Egypt. In addition to her regular travels, Fleesie works as a medical researcher at the University of Maryland and formed a nonprofit with her colleagues that does an annual trip to medically underserved countries to perform cleft palate surgeries and to teach local doctors this procedure.
Encouraging the students to expand their travel experiences, Fleesie shared her private mantra of “Be Curious, Be Brave and Breathe.” The students talked about places they’ve been and where they look forward to going. It was an enjoyable and engaging conversation.
Thank you Fleesie!
