Sustained Courage Spotlight: Dolly Parton

from Sustained Courage · host Rachel Caruso-Novack

What would Dolly do? In this Sustained Courage Spotlight, we celebrate the extraordinary life and legacy of Dolly Parton—and the lessons she left behind about authenticity, reinvention, boundaries, generosity, and knowing exactly who you are. From the little girl in the Smoky Mountains who dreamed of something bigger to the woman who built an unmistakable brand, protected her work, embraced being underestimated, and created some of her most lasting contributions after 40, Dolly showed us that getting older doesn't mean becoming less relevant. Sometimes it means becoming even more yourself. So grab your rhinestones. We're talking midlife Dolly, big hair, brilliant business decisions, and the Ten Commandments of Dolly Parton. WWDD? Add the rhinestones.
