After consecutive years of challenges; blended families, a house fire that took 2 years to settle with the insurance company, a neck surgery & then a debilitating back (nerve) injury for Ken and an Invasive Lobular Carcinoma (breast cancer) diagnosis for Tami, we found ourselves left with only each other. Yes, at the end of each day, that is all we really needed, BUT all the years we put in, all the long hours away from our children & each other to afford “The American Dream” which really wasn’t looking anything like a dream. It made us think, wonder and realize that was in no way a real American Dream. This is where Wander For Purpose was born! When we started the 2nd chapter of our story, we were living in our 5th wheel, always near our families in Wisconsin during the Summer & Fall and various warmer states or Mexico in the colder months. We knew we needed to travel the country, helping others see there is so much more to life than that damn time clock, trading our precious time for $$. We knew we wanted to help others seek FREEDOM! Time freedom, geographical freedom & financial freedom!
**Now we enter the 3rd chapter, and again make adjustments to live our best life! We have 3 beautiful Grandchildren that we found difficult to be away from for several months of the year, so we have made the decision to place our feet in Spooner, Wisconsin! We have grown to love the area and are starting to get involved in the small community. Ken is the new 'fun chef' at the Spooner Golf Club and Tami is the receptionist at Masterjohn Realty, as well as a Customer Service Representative at a locally owned, non-corporate bank! This is where Wander With Purpose has evolved into Wander OR BE STILL With Purpose! Whether we are on the road, or being 'still' within the community, we support FREEDOM, enjoying life, family & friends, along with sharing & showing KINDNESS! We are excited to share our adventures locally and our opportunities to .
