Connie Smith

Connie Smith

Connie Smith grew up in Nashville, Tennessee. She graduated from the University of Tennessee in 1994 with a degree in Marketing and has spent most of her career in Nashville in the healthcare and publishing industries. After resigning from her executive role in 2009 to pursue a business venture that did not unfold as she had hoped, she suddenly found herself in a desolate place. In part, this began a quest to connect with God in a deeper way and, ultimately, to find her purpose. Little did she know the journey itself would produce the elements for a project she would later discover to be her sought-after passion. Along with her new-found love of writing, she enjoys spending time with family and friends, leading Bible study discussion groups at her home, cooking and entertaining, hiking, art, nature, and being outdoors.

    Great Gobs of Goose Grease: An Account of A Stroke Happening and the Trial and Struggles to Comeback

    A book like this would have given our family some much needed hope during Connie’s most critical weeks in the hospital. It should be mandatory reading for stroke family members.

    – Bonnie Ferrin, twin sister

    Watching my mother suffer through the pain and frustration of a stroke has been a horrible experience. However, her determination towards survival and recovery has taught me invaluable life lessons, and with each hurdle crossed, I have learned the powers of faith, hope, and believing in yourself. My mom is my hero.

    – Angela Bailey, daughter

    A stroke is two things:

    1. The easy part, the short life or death emergency where everyone exists on fear and adrenaline.

    2. The hard part, everything else! I wish I had an idea of what that was going to be like!

    – Amber Livsey, daughter

    Will a devastating stroke change your life forever? Yes. Will if rule your life forever? At times if feels that way, but time heals all wounds, and in time you will find a way to rule your own life again. Jenny Hughes, daughter. This book gave great insight into the trials of a stroke victim. Had my family only known beforehand that this is how it felt, we could have provided a much better support system.

    – Summer Gordon, daughter

    This is a book that shows how a person’s life can change in an instant.

    This book shows how ordinary people who are confronted with overwhelming obstacles can triumph with a positive attitude and hard work, then become an inspiration to everyone around them.

    – Steven Smith, husband
