Be Like Dolly — A Tribute to a Truly Remarkable Woman
Three years ago, I shared the second episode of the Wishing You Well Podcast, called Be Like Dolly. It was an episode about Dolly Parton - her incredible life, her resilience, her generosity, her wisdom, her work ethic, her talent and the many lessons we can draw from the way she has lived her life.
Today, I am sharing that episode again, but with a very different feeling in my heart.
Following the heartbreaking news of Dolly’s passing, Be Like Dolly has become a tribute to a woman who inspired generations - not simply through her music, but through her kindness, authenticity, hard work, humor, courage, and unwavering commitment to helping others.
Dolly showed us that you can dream big without forgetting where you came from. You can be successful without losing your humility. You can overcome adversity and still choose kindness. And perhaps most importantly, you can use your gifts to make the world a little better for someone else.
So today, I invite you to revisit this special episode and reflect on one simple question:
What does it mean to Be Like Dolly?
May her legacy remind us all to work hard, love generously, laugh often, stay true to ourselves—and always leave a little more kindness behind than we found.
💗 Rest in peace, Dolly. Thank you for the music, the memories, and the inspiration.
