“From Toastmaster to Yoga Instructor to Blogger, oh my!” with Jackie Hunt

Many things in our lives come together to shape our personalities. The older we get, the more “shaped” we become. Toastmasters is a speaking club. Toastmasters has helped me shape ideas and get them across verbally. One day, my Toastmasters club challenged me to write a blog. What started as a single blog post to fulfill a Toastmasters project has blossomed into a full-scale writer’s website. As for yoga, it’s really just a “speech” set to movement!
Jackie Hunt is a retired chemist who spent 30 years working for the Dow Chemical Company along the Gulf Coast. Five years ago, she moved to Georgetown to, as she puts it, “get away from the hurricanes and mosquitoes.” Her passions include health, nutrition, and yoga. Jackie’s interest in nutrition began after she was diagnosed with Celiac disease, which led her to take a closer look at food labels and ingredients. Drawing on her background in chemistry, she enjoys exploring and explaining the complexities of diet and nutrition. This led her to begin writing a health blog, which she has maintained for several years. Jackie leads a nutrition club in Sun City and has been an active member of Toastmasters International for about 10 years, where she has developed her public speaking skills and helped others do the same. In retirement, Jackie has also devoted time to becoming a yoga instructor, combining her interests in health and wellness with a desire to serve her community.
