This week Leslie sits down with Millie Keller, the 103-year-old bookkeeper of Zola Keller Bridal Shop in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. She walks Leslie through her century-long journey and recalls the ups, downs, smiles and tears that she's had along the way. Millie’s story is one of self-sufficiency and determination, which is something that can be hard to continue when you've lived for more than 100 years. But with Millie’s story, we see that living with a truly optimistic outlook can bring you a peaceful, healthy and long life. 00:00 - Intro 03:10 - Interview with Millie Keller Follow Us on Social Media: Leslie Gold (@twitter) A Life’s Story (@twitter) (@instagram) (@facebook) Jam Street Media (@twitter) (@instagram) (@facebook) Learn more about your ad choices.
