Throughout December 2024, several of us are taking part in the 30-Day PPT Coach4aday Challenge. PPT is an acronym for People Places or Things. Each day we share our insights, thoughts, or memories about a person (living or dead), a place (we have visited or learned about) or a thing that intrigues us. Today I’m featuring a cancer survivor named SULEIKA.
If you’re like me, you may have never met anyone named Suleika. Her name is unique, but it’s her life story that truly left an impression on me. Suleika Jaouad, born in New York City, is the daughter of a Muslim father from Tunisia, who was a college professor, and a Catholic mother from Switzerland.
Her story is a reminder of how fast a seismic shift can take place in our lives. The summer after graduating from college, Suleika Jaouad had begun to pursue her dream of moving to France and becoming a war correspondent.
Nagging fatigue had her go see a doctor and before her 23rd birthday she had been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia.
People, Places, & Things 30-Day Challenge Guidelines
Like previous challenges there are no hard and fast rules to participate. There are a few suggested guidelines
- Each day in December 2024 write about a Person, Place or Thing-PPT
- Share at least one fact, memory, or quality about your subject choice.
- If so inclined use the hash tag #Coach4adayChallenge on social media platforms
