Joanie Applefield is a Senior in high school planning to continue her education at Duke University in the Fall of 2025. She is also a graduate of the Temple Israel High School and a prayer leader in our Teen Tefillah Team.
In this episode, Joanie and I discuss the origins of her commitment to Judaism. Through a series of life changing moments, she returned to her roots and found a home in Jewish life and peoplehood. Her self-discovery is a fascinating and inspiring story of growth. Her passion for being happy is something that can teach us all how to better live our lives. I am excited to share her story with all of you.
