Brand New Me Episode # 24 Carole Lewis - "Travel Light".

Published: Dec. 14, 2017, 11:18 p.m.

"Travel Light". That's what Carole Lewis told Pam and me. She ought to know! She's had to let go of a lot of precious things including her home and some of her family, but she presses on and doesn't give up!

In January of 2014, Carole became the Director Emeritus. Carole led First Place 4 Health as the National Director since 1987. A member of the original First Place group that began in 1981, she watched the program grow from 12 groups in one church to thousands of members at more than 12,000 churches throughout the nation and in many foreign countries.

When Carole attended the First Place orientation in March 1981, she was unsure of where God was leading but knew she needed to make some lifestyle changes. A chance meeting with a friend from her past gave Carole the impetus to determine she did not want to be "fat and 40." She joined a First Place group and soon lost 20 pounds. Learning how to bring balance to her life motivated her to become a First Place leader to encourage others to achieve their goals.

Carole has authored fifteen books and led conferences, Christian spas, workshops and seminars with an emphasis on personal and spiritual balance, fitness, encouragement and temperament analysis. Her audiences know her as warm, transparent, honest and humorous.

Carole and her late husband, Johnny, have three children (one deceased) eight grandchildren and one great grandchild. Carole lives in Houston, Texas.
