Between EY and Aon
A True Story of Faith, Survival, and Travelling on a ShoestringBy Cristina Bro
Length1h 42m
About this audiobook
This is a deeply personal account of the years between my corporate life at EY and at Aon. It explores who I am under financial pressure and external challenges, and how I travelled on less than a hundred dollars a month while volunteering in missions across Peru, Ecuador, France, and the UK. It is a story of identity exploration, and of faith.
From the heartrending realities of abandoned and neglected children in Latin America, to moments of awe in the biodiversity of the Galápagos and the Amazon Forest, and the profound beauty of Andean terraced mountainsides rich with archaeology, this is not a memoir about adventure, but about survival and service. It reflects on origins, class, gender, and the lived experience of serving as a nun, providing childcare, and teaching across early years, grade school, and beyond.
If you’re looking for an antihero narrative, hopepunk, or the dark side of human behaviour, you won’t find it here. This is simply a candid story of choices and survival.
