Adventurer: Allie Reynolds
Location: Los Angeles, CA and Bolivia
Description: “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” – Mahatma Gandhi. In this episode, the wonderful Allie Reynolds and I dive into her dedication to service and the adventures that coincided over the past two years. Allie began volunteering for the Good Shepherd Volunteers after college and spent her time and effort over the past two years changing the lives of domestic violence victims in Los Angeles and Bolivia. In Episode 3, we explore Allie’s role in mentoring those she worked with, travelling in South America, venturing to the mountains of Peru and other nearby regions and living in a mountainous third world country. This is the story of how selflessness and serving others leads to awesome gratitude. Allie thought that she would find the greatest gratitude in serving others, but she found that she has just as much gratitude in realizing her own accomplishments of service, travel, and impacting others. Learn about the importance of travel and immersion in other, less fortunate cultures.
