Jean Peelen's story is one of defiance, transformation and self-discovery. An 82 year old lawyer, model, actress, author and activist, she's a true trailblazer, who's spent her life breaking the mold and challenging societal norms.
Jean delves into her fascinating journey, starting with her roots in a world where traditional roles like motherhood were considered the pinnacle of a woman's existence. She shares candidly about feeling like an outsider and how this propelled her into a career in law, focusing on civil rights issues.

But Jean's story doesn't stop there. After retiring, she reinvented herself as a model and actress, finding new joy and purpose. The pinnacle of her self-discovery came with writing her memoir, "Feisty," a transformative experience that helped her understand the arc of her life.
