Dawn Pounell discusses her transition from a 30-year teaching career to retirement, emphasizing her identity as a child of Christ rather than her role as a teacher. Despite initial reluctance, she felt a divine appointment to return to teaching after staying home with her children. Over five years, she wrestled with the decision, ultimately finding peace in retiring. A pivotal moment came during a Bible study on John, which reinforced her faith to believe without seeing. Dawn now focuses on trusting God's leadership, embracing new opportunities, and redefining her identity beyond her professional role.
