In this episode, I interview Jill Geysen whose bio says it all.
Jillian Geysen's Bio:
Jillian Geysen's journey from a small town in Connecticut, where she grew up in a lower-class family supported by her grandparents, is a testament to her resilience and determination. As the eldest of three sisters, she learned the value of hard work and perseverance from a young age.
In the late summer of 2014, just over a year after graduating from Hofstra University in New York, where she studied and played Division 1 field hockey, Jillian faced a life-changing moment when she received a cancer diagnosis at the age of 22. While concurrently pursuing prerequisite courses for PA school in New Haven, CT, she worked at a restaurant and lived temporarily on a friend's basement couch to maintain some degree of independence from her parents.
Enduring four months of chemotherapy (twice a week) that resulted in hair loss and a month-long radiation treatment concluding in February, Jillian faced significant medical expenses. Nevertheless, her determination never wavered.
In March of 2015, Jillian embarked on a new chapter by relocating to Boston to work at Massachusetts General Hospital, aiming to fulfill pre-requisites for entry into a PA program. Over the course of five years in the healthcare industry, she gained insights from both clinical and administrative roles, ultimately realizing that it wasn't her true calling, scarred by her frequent personal visits to a multitude of healthcare centers.
In early 2020, just before the COVID-19 pandemic, Jillian relocated to Tampa, driven by her commitment to her girlfriend, whom she met at Pensacola Pride in 2019. In June 2020, she took a position in exterior home remodeling sales, meticulously saving every penny and making astute financial investments.
By October 2023, Jillian had made the bold decision to quit her job, now comfortably sustaining herself through her well-managed investments. Her journey is a story of perseverance, adaptability, and a commitment to shaping her own path in life, living authentically as a proud lesbian. If you'd like to learn more about Jillian, feel free to reach out, as she's always open to sharing her experiences and insights.
