Stories: Once an Orphan, Now a Nurse and Proud Mother

In this episode, Garrett and Bink bring on special guest Marina who has been a family friend of the Baxter’s and has worked for Dr. Baxter as a nurse for 17 years. They start by talking about their favorite memory of Dr. Baxter, Bink’s past obsession with local honey, and what their morning routine is like. They transition into Marina’s story where she shares how she ended up in an orphanage in Mexico, was adopted by a family in Nashville, and the heartbreak of losing her adoptive dad at 18. She began to feel lost when she became pregnant at 20, but ended up finding some stability with the father’s parents by living with them. She shares the struggles and trials of being a single mother trying to provide for her son and how she worked three jobs. She eventually became a nurse and was finally able to have some stability after being hired by Bink’s dad, Dr. Baxter. This newfound job led to intentional conversations with Dr. Baxter that ended up leading her to a relationship with Jesus. She finishes by sharing how God was always watching out for her and speaking to her through the little things in her life, also pushing her forward toward life with Him.
