"Grenada is very traditional" says my guest, Moksha, who was born and raised on the island and now lives in the US. "A large portion of Grenadians still believe that 'little girls should be seen and not heard' and girls should concentrate on domestics and house keeping," continues my guest. Coincidentally, that 'saying' about little girls is an English proverb. Grenada was colonized by the English from 1763 to 1974 and then by the French from 1979 to 1983 so they still have a residual effect of these different ruling cultures. "House, car, land," those were the presupposed priorities for a young married woman.
I love that Moksha say "mothers are the culture keepers," and it's so very true. What would we do without our mom's telling us stories about the generations before us. There was definitely some conflict between Moksha and her mom because my guest often questioned things from a very young age. In particular, she had questions about spirituality and religion which she explained was way too complicated to cover in one episode of SHLTMM.
An overprotective mother believes she's doing what's best for her daughter, but not so in Moksha's case. It created more conflict around the house and that wasn't beneficial to anyone. What seemed to be the hardest part was her lack of freedom. She was never a daughter to sneak out at night, instead she just told her parents that she was going out. She just knew who she was and what she needed out of life from a young age. And when it came to Moksha dating or meeting new male friends, that was definitely NOT going to happen based on her parents beliefs.
Cecelia's mom always believed in the benefits of higher education, so she continues to study to learn and improve her opportunities with her own business, "Celebration Cakes." With a high school education she began different jobs but keep in mind "girls were supposed to stay home with domestic work,"Moksha says. It was the boys, who continued with school and were able to take jobs.
Moksha is dialed into nutrition/diet and wellbeing and it all began with her mother's knowledge and love for native foods in Grenada. Food is an important part of the culture and family in Grenada and traditions are handed down generation to generation. Moksha's business "Sovereign Eats," is all about food and it's healing properties. It's unfortunate, but Moksha feels that so much of the cultural ideas of her home land have been left behind. She's hoping to keep those traditions alive by sharing her knowledge through Sovereign Eats.
When asked if Moksha thought her mom had regrets about her limitations as a young girl, she said "yes, absolutely, most likely based on her mom's past and boundaries put on her when she was a young girl."

Today, Kevin Jerome is the proud owner of four companies, a far cry from what he thought his future would be when he was a teen. " A kid who grew up in a 2 bedroom apartment, living with 14 people, evicted twice as a teen," says Jerome, " I'm a true example of how you can turn your life around."
At a young age, Kevin taught himself to read and eventually how to drive out of necessity. He realized that no one else was going to help him, so he better learn on his own. It's that kind of determination and foresight that helped him become who he is today.
My guest is curious as to why "so many of us allow our past to hold us down?" Experiencing anxiety and insecurity because of changing schools and moving repeatedly as a teen, Kevin would now tell his younger self that "it's better to try, take chances and possibly fail, than not trying at all. But again, don't let your past define you. That was a very trying time for the young Jerome but he was determined to not have it define him.
Kevin and his mother, Marie, have a loving relationship. However, Kevin understands that there were certain circumstances that got in the way when he was growing up- she was preoccupied with other family matters when Kevin needed her most.
One thing that Kevin has be certain about "I've always wanted to be rich in mind-emotionally, spiritually and financially." He says his religious background played a part in his life philosophies, but it's his spiritual path that grounded him most.

Costas Schuler is a Graphic Designer/Marketing and Branding Specialist. He lives in the Fort Lauderdale area of Florida.
You'll find links below to catch up on the latest from Costas.
The thought of his mother finding out about the crazy stuff Costas was up to as a teen, kept him on the straight and narrow. He says, "she was the bad cop, dad was the good cop." Costas and his mom are very close. There is seven years between he and his younger brother, so Costas and his mom had many years together and developed a wonderful relationship.
In this episode, Costas shares stories of Lemon's childhood up in the hills of Ikaria during WWII where they suffered through regular bombings from the Italian troops and had little food. We can all imagine what it takes to feed seven children. Yet, Costas has a lifetime of wonderful memories from his visits to the Greek island-all of which he shares with his children.
Costas talks about a tremendous work ethic that he feels he got from both his mother and father, yet he truly respects why it was so important for his mother to instill the significance of resilience and self-reliance in her children. Those lessons are the same that he has chosen to instill in his own children today.
Enjoy the episode and thanks for listening,
Jackie

Kaye and her family traveled from to the Pacific Northwest and eventually settled in White Salmon, WA. In order for them to have food on the table and a roof over their head, they had to work hard. With all those mouths to feed and though at times there wasn't much to go around, they felt blessed because they had each other.
Nothing could get in Kay's way. Nothing stopped her from doing what she wanted to do or what ever she had to do. That said, the had to back up her decisions with a supporting argument. She thought things out very carefully and weighed her pros and cons, and then set her mind to it.
She loved her son and was never afraid to show it. Bob shares many wonderful stories that exemplify his mother's love. And "she got knocked down a number of times in life, but she always got back up," according to Bob. Kay was married twice, was excommunicated from the Catholic church after her divorce, got her pilots license while being the only woman in class and became a legal secretary in her 50's.
Bob refers to his mom as "a trailblazer."
There are many more wonderful stories of Kay, that Bob shares with me, on this episode of SHLTMM. More information below regarding Bob Norris.

He's not a professional comic but laughter comes easy for David Thomas. It's actually one field that he hasn't tried professionally, but would love to some day. Thomas is a Global Professional Speaker and a CEO Presentation Skills Coach. In case you haven't heard about his crazy memory abilities, he's also an International Grandmaster of Memory, broken Guinness record for reciting Pi to 22,500 digits, became US Memory Champion and so much more.
From the age of 4, David recalls the nightly sexual abuse he suffered from his alcoholic mother, Gillian and then the years of physical abuse from his step-father. David had a younger brother to protect, so he kept this secret to himself to be certain that his younger brother would not be exposed to any of it.
Unfortunately, David's mother died in her early 50's, almost 21 years since the time of this recording. She died at a young age due to an alcohol induced heart attack. David was happy that he had put his neglect behind him in order to move forward prior to his mother's death. They had rekindled their relationship.
As if the abuse wasn't enough, David also attempted suicide twice, but was not successful. When asked if this was life changing or a sign that he was meant to live a long life, his response was, "no, not at all, it meant that I was just terrible at trying to kill myself." Again, gallows humor, but it's easy for him to make light looking back so many years later.
David wanted to help others who had suffered abuse under the hand of loved ones, so he wrote what turned out to be a #1 bestselling book in the UK, "Tell Me Why Mummy"- An inspirational true story of one man overcoming enormous odds including sexual abuse from his alcoholic mother to choose his own path in life and become and become a truly exceptional human being.
Thomas says "you only have 3 choices in life as far as moving on after an abusive, challenging upbringing-
You carry on living with your problems, but it will eventually take you down.You remove itOr you manage it"Therapy and researching and writing his book help free himself from the horrors of his childhood.

My Guest says he "has absolutely no fear of rejection." and he wants you to understand that "you only have one life, don't let fear hold you back from living your life's potential." Sean Kelly has this magic of making you feel that anything is possible . He loves helping people achieve their dreams. That said, he's launched "Do the Big Dream." You can find more information about his 15 step formula for achieving any dream and his foundation pillar skills. More info at http://dothebigdream.com/.
In this episode you're going to hear some eye opening stories of adventures of Sean and his mom, including driving 618 miles from Nevada to California when Sean was a young boy. Linda trusted her son and they relied on each other for many years. Sean will be the first to say that he generally speaks of lessons learned from his father-both good and bad. Sharing his story on SHLTMM was a great opportunity for him to share all the attributes of his mother, Linda.
With Sean's dad already living in Germany, Linda had to work full time to support she and her son. By the age of nine, Sean's parent's divorced, yet thought it a good idea for all to move to Germany together. Living check by check was risking but allowed the trio to have wonderful get-aways, taking Sean out of school and traveling all over Europe. His mom's feeling was that her son was going to learn way more by traveling country to country and seeing all of Europe rather than sitting in a classroom.
Linda was an artist. She was passionate about photography and painting, painting flowers in particular. Unfortunately, she wasn't comfortable sharing her works, possibly because of fear of criticism or judgement. Or perhaps she painted to make herself happy and didn't need to have anyone else see it . Linda was diligent about her craft. She traveled to Paris and visited all the finest museums and studied what interested her most, then went home and painted. Unfortunately, Sean shares details of a tragic end to his mother's treasures.
Linda and Sean's dad met when Linda was a senior in high school and his father, a photographer for a local newspaper after returning from serving in Vietnam. The young couple had a terrible time trying to conceive a child yet while at a revival retreat in Mexico, the minister told Linda that she was in fact pregnant and pregnant with "a very special child." And that "God has great plans for this child." So imagine Sean's mom sharing this story with her son on a regular basis, so Sean clearly felt that he was destined to accomplish great things. Sean shares stories of doubt while engaged in combat in Iraq where he felt he was going to die, yet felt deep down that "I don't think I've fulfilled what God has for me yet," and carried on through combat.
Sean thanks his mother for constantly reinforcing that he's capable of doing anything he wants in life, if he sets his mind to it. Linda also made sure that Sean understood that God had special plans for him.
Sean Kelly is the creator and founder of the very successful tv series here in the US and England, "Storage Hunters."
You can hear more about Sean and his experience of being abandoned by his parents in Italy as a teen on the podcast "Do It Now" with host Sara Moses. He finished high school on his own then moved to Italy, again on his own.
One of Sean's philosophies is "if you want to do something, just go do it." And he's learned from a number of hard knocks in his life as a learning experience.
And please listen through to the end to hear stories of Sean's grandmother who grew up on a farm in North Dakota and was raised by her older brothers and was a business owner when not many women were.

"My parents pushed me to do my best," say Gina. "They had high expectations all the way." It didn't help Gina's cause that one of her teachers told her mother that "you could be an outstanding student if you tried." But in time the message paid off.
Now a proud mother of three and a Childbirth Attorney, Gina works full time as did her mother. It's that balance of working all day and time to spend with kids after school on the field, cheering them on from the sidelines.
Susan or Sue, "was the brains behind the operation" says my guest about her mother working full time as the VP of "Champion Screw Machine Engineering" in Michigan. Sue was also passionate about playing her guitar. She performed regularly at the Contemporary Services at their local church in addition to being a Sunday School Teacher.
One of the most significant messages Gina has learned from her mom is to be non-judgmental. "She always told me, the easiest thing you can do is talk behind someone's back," continues Mundy, "If you can't say it to their face, don't say it. My mother is by far, one of the most positive people I have ever met."
Gina's was also very close with her maternal grandmother, Sue's mom. Grandmother and daughter had similar personalities and when ever the three grandkids went to spend time with their grandmother, she was sure to drop everything and loved spending every minute with them. Gina was so proud to have been asked to deliver the eulogy at her grandmother's funeral service.
My guest's message comes from the heart and as a Childbirth Attorney, she wants couples to be prepared and aware of the nuances of a delivery room and the benefits of choosing the best doctors possible to help ensure the delivery of a healthy baby and a happy mother.
Gina's recent book is titled "A PARENT’S GUIDE TO A SAFER CHILDBIRTH- EXPECTING THE BEST:USING THE POWER OF KNOWLEDGE TO HELP YOU DELIVER A HEALTHY BABY.”
A childbirth attorney for over 20 years, Gina wants to give her readers the tools to prevent any accidents that may possible take place in the delivery room.
She delves into what happens during birth and trying to figure out from the delivery team what exactly happened. Her goal is to help parents prepare for child birth to make sure these mistakes and complications don't happen during the birth, so they can have a healthy baby and mother. She suggests that getting involved before birth can help save lives.
Mundy insists " the book isn't about about what can go wrong but making sure it all goes right."

Lyvita Brooks says her mission in life is "to help people get the clutter out of their lives so they can go and do what God calls them to do." Lyvita is an author, bible teacher, founder of "The Me Project" and host of the podcast "Hanging Out With Jesus."
Lyvita credits her mother for inspiring her to write and love books. The book that my guest recently published, "Nugget's for Thought-A Mother and Daughter's Collection of Poems, Reflections and Flash Fiction About the Life They See," was published after her mother's death but it was something that the two women had talked about many years earlier. Verdell was often reading and writing and it truely inspired Lyvita.
Verdell had this special magic that made each of her students and family members feel as though they were the most important and only person in the world, at that very moment. And her daughter was some what jealous of others taking time away from her being with her mother, including fellow family members.
As a Physical Education teacher in the same school that Lyvita attended in Elementary School made it a little tough for my guest. There were more people competing for Lyvita's mom's attention and that was sometimes tough on Lyvita.
"She inspired me to be me, to be Lyvita" says Ms. Brooks. That was a huge gift to her daughter.
Currently, Lyvita is the host of Hanging Out With Jesus Podcast, founder of The Me Project Academy, and Owner of LRW Publication, LLC, but God is the CEO of them all.

In addition to film and tv acting, Russell is passionate about theatre and stage acting. With over thirty years of experience, he's now written his first book titled, "Shoes," and it is a significant story because it mirrors his youth and his relationship with his mother.
As one of the founding members and producing artistic director of "Stagewalkers Productions", based in Los Angeles, CA, it gave the younger generation with creative, artistic and acting backgrounds to have a home base to sharpen their acting tools. It was a safe place for those who were interested in developing their craft of acting or any theatre related topic.
Speaking with Russell was so easy. His rich stories of his childhood with his family are so intriguing. Born and raised in Huntsville, TX, then his family moved to Houston. You'll hear stories of Blanche Williamson who hired Russell's grandmother as a domestic and then Ms. Williamson hired Dorothy. "Blanche was a friend of the family, beyond being an employer," Russell recalls. "The Williamson family was so loving and generous they were like family." Working with this lovely family allowed Dorothy to make her way through Nursing school at Alvin Community College and so much more. Russell says "that she, (meaning his mother), changed the trajectory of what was know in my family."
All of the wonderful memories and lessons of his mother that Russell recalls have been passed onto his two children. To this day, he recalls how his mother could laugh at herself, tackle anything without fear, and how she was full of hope and optimism.
Don't miss a minute of this conversation.
And thanks so much for listening.

Dr. Landers' mother completed her master's degree in library science and worked full time as a school librarian in the 1950's and 60's long before that was the norm for women/mothers. "My mother grew up on a farm, lived through the Great Depression and met my dad, a WWII veteran after the war," says Landers. "She was a natural born giver, always looking after the needs of others," say the doctor.
One family tradition that Susan embraced while growing up, was the daily family dinners. She continued the tradition with her own family as she saw the true benefits of taking the time to share each other's day.
The second oldest of four children, Susan had a sense of independence from a young age. She new she wanted to study and work hard and no one was going to talk her out of relocating for an opportunity to train for her medical career.
Susan and her mother didn't always see eye to eye and her father had a volatile personality. Susan often wondered why her mother stayed with their dad and her response was "because I loved him."
After many years of not truly understanding why Dr. Landers worked so hard, her mother volunteered in the NICU at a Florida hospital, helping and holding babies. She finally understood why her daughter was so passionate about her career. Susan's mother died at the age of 97 but it took the death of Susan's younger sister for their relationship to be rekindled.

Jeannine's biological mother got pregnant In her early 20's and was unwed. Her family sent her away for months to a facility in Evanston, IL, for single mothers until her baby was born, never to speak of the incident again. Though it was a closed adoption, eventually my guest was able to track down her biological mother.
The unfortunate part of the story was the unsettling abuse that Jeannine suffered at home from a young age. Jeannine was never good enough, she looked different than her adoptive parents and two younger, not biological siblings, she was fat, etc.
"The mental abuse was so tricky"shares Jeannine. A phrase she heard and felt on a regular basis was "you're only good enough if you......... Fill in the blank with 'are pretty, skinny, look like us, etc. Carol would repeatedly say, "girls are so bad, you are so fake, you don't know how to love anybody" continues Jeannine.
Very driven, my guest was on a journey to find herself and her real mother. Jeannine says there was something inside her that was silently directing her to things otherworldly and intangible. She left a successful business career to dive into a more Eastern philosophy of life and spiritual knowing.
Ms. Kim says " she always felt different and was looking for appreciation and acceptance on a regular basis."
For 24 years, Jeannine has been offering healing wisdom and guidance to clients worldwide as an Intuitive Reader, 5D Astrologer, Medium, H.H.P., Yogi, Teacher and Author.
In listening to our conversation, Jeannine will explain, "mother is mantra." She explains further, "I love saying Mother IS Mantra, as the way that all she is (inside and out) or does or says ..it stays with us, it repeats ...all of it (for better or worse)... just like we do with Mantra."
My guest continues, "this is not my story anymore."

Father Jim can hardly contain himself when asked about his mother. "She was my biggest supporter, she's one of the main reasons I became a priest." Renea loved all her children equally, so she said on a regular basis, but Father Jim is convinced he was her favorite.
The only sibling to attend college, Father Jim completed his undergraduate and 2 graduate degrees from Seton Hall University, South Orange, NJ and currently is an adjunct professor at said school. He was loved by his doting mother who often protected him from his older brother's rough housing as you can imagine.
Nana, his maternal grandmother, lived with the family many years and was also an integral part of Father Jim's cherished childhood. The two often listened to music together which is one of the many reasons my guest has such a love for music of the 40's, 50's and more.
Often referred to as the Brady Bunch, Alice, their grandmother, mom and dad and the kids, boy girl/boy girl birth order, etc often spent evenings together watching tv and listening to music after enjoying a big family meal together. Those are the memories that Father Jim reflects upon the most with a sense of humor that abounds. "It wasn't always perfect, but I wouldn't change anything for the world.
An avid piano player and singer, Father Jim performs regularly for his congregation and his community. Music is a huge part of his life and so much of that passion stems from his childhood, his nana and his mother, Renea.
Just a few years prior to this interview, Father Jim had a massive heart attack while driving on the highway. And yet some how he miraculously survived the "widow maker"-he needed quintuple bypass surgery-five arteries were completely blocked. He professes that his faith had something to do with saving his life, giving him another chance to help those in need.
Father Jim shares many wonderful stories of his priesthood and how proud his mother was of his vocation.

Before her children were born, Betty was a teacher. Later in life, when the kids were older, she began working at the Tennessee Aquarium and worked there for more than twenty five years, some of the happiest years of her life.
John is the oldest of three children, two boys and one girl. His parents raised him from a young age, with the understanding that children had to learn how to do things on their own, to figure things out and learn how to be self sufficient. John continues "they provided the essentials for us, but if there were things we wanted above and beyond that, they needed to be earned." HIs parents were good parents who taught their children to help others, be active in the community, volunteer for others, etc. "They had very high expectations for the person they wanted me to become in life".
John had a tragic accident when he was a young boy. It was his mother's reassuring attitude and encouragement that helped John heal and gain back his sense of self confidence. Betty was determined and resolute in helping her son believe in himself again.
When listening to "Passionstruck," John's podcast, you'll come to understand the challenges he still has today from that accident, but his perspective is that it happened for a reason and does not let it get in his way. His guests are insightful and well versed in successes and failures and all that's entangled with each of these experiences.
After listening to this episode, be sure to give "Passionstruck" a listen. So many inspirational lessons to learn.

Thierry mentions a number of times how his mom never complains, no matter what she's up against. He says she's really remarkable.
When he was a young boy, he told his mom that he was going to be the president of France one day and his mom was so proud and excited. She still to this day shows her support for her son and her daughter.
Leila has always been an inspiration to her son, including helping him complete his dream to come and live in the US, she's his "Culinary Inspiration," helped shape his life with the "Fusion of Cultures," and a dreamer.
"Mom was always open to the world," as she still is today says Thierry.
And while Thierry isn't grilling, he's a special needs teacher in CA. As a child he struggled in school. His teacher repeatedly wrote home saying, "Thierry is a smart child but lazy and often distracted." He's certain that he would have been diagnosed with ADD had those labels been in use back then. He has many fortunate students now.
And don't forget to check out his website for GrillCulture.com, link below, for all his grilling tips and goodies on his website!
Hope you enjoy the conversation.

My guest, Ritzy Periwinkle, host of the podcast "Word To Your Mama," survived her mother's abusive partner but at a very young age, she believed she was powerful enough to harm him in order to save her mother.

Ritzy says, "because of all of our limitations, my mom and I were always the underdog." Because of this philosophy, Ritzy says she's a supporter of culture, justice and diversity, a topic she often discusses on her podcast. She always speaks up for those less fortunate and don't have a voice.
Because of the choices her mom made, Periwinkle is thriving in part because of therapy and wants everyone to know that there is help out there. "If we share our stories, we can help each other and make some real change,"says the WTYM podcast host.
"My mother was sweet, loving and a caring person who suffered a lot," says Periwinkle. She thinks that her mother would be very proud of her and all that she's accomplished.
Periwinkle says "she is her mother's vengeance."
Marisa Estrada, also known as Ritzy P, is a creative professional, change-maker, and connector who thrives at the intersection of creative innovation, tech, and community impact.

Cormac is quite the accomplished teenage singer known all over the world.
His new release includes new and old songs and is titled "A Borrowed Gift."
During our conversation, Cormac shares how his mom would refer to herself as the "worry monster" so he could tell her all his troubles and then they'd go away. Mom would take over all his troubles like a good mom can.

As an only child, Kristina got lots and lots of love. Many of the life lessons Kristina learned from her mom as a child, she's able to use with her own children, and that makes her happy. Judy, Kristina's mom, was always very giving and she never expected anything in return. Her mother's advice was "do what you love." So at 6 years old, Kristina began to write books and stories and she's still writing today.
Looking back, Kristina respects and appreciates her mother's kindness, patience and calming voice. Kristina also cherishes her grandmother's passion for reading. To this day, Kristina recalls seeing her grandmother's bookshelves lined with books. "My grandmother would read an entire book in one day," says Cappetta. That love of literature, certainly came from her grandmother and she's passed that passion down to her own children.
Kristina seems to connect more easily with people who have close relationship's with their mother. She says, "the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree." Still having her mom close by geographically and emotionally is so important and she loves that her children have a strong relationship with their grandmother.
The more love the better.

Set in the 1940s, as America emerged from the Great Depression and went to war, Ed's memoir, The Gift Best Given, recounts the search for his family and tells the story of a young woman's courage as she overcame obstacles to achieve her dreams. Ed's biological mother's name was Genevieve Knorowski and she was an aspiring professional ice skater. She left home at the age of 17 and traveled by train to Vancouver, Canada to begin her career,
Unexpectedly, Genevieve found herself pregnant at 23 with no significant partner by her side. She, along with her older sister and brother in law, kept this personal secret from the rest of the family, including her parents. At the time, Genevieve was a celebrity performer in the ice skating spectaculars of the 1940's and 50's.
The story unfolds so nicely in Ed's book, but he's sure it wasn't as easy as that for Genevieve. As we were having our conversation, Ed mentioned that he's already started writing a sequel.
I must make note that, Nina Di Gangi, Ed's adoptive mom, was very loving and caring and went to great lengths to follow through with Genevieve's wishes and desires for the best outcome for her son. And to this day, he still calls his adoptive mom, "mom." And it's astonishing, the similarities between the two mothers. The coincidences/similarities in their likes and characteristics is profound.
It's truly a remarkable story, that I'm sure you'll enjoy.
The Gift Best Given , a memoir, is now available online as well as on Ed's website. All information is below.

Mark is a wonderful award winning writer, director and designer. While living in Hollywood, CA, he appeared in dozens of films, television and stage productions. He has scripted jokes, screenplays, greeting cards and more. Now he's celebrating the release of his book "A Cup of Tea on the Commode," his journey of ups and downs and learning the details of caring 24/7 for his adoring mother.
The book is full of hysterical stories of the six siblings growing up on a cult-de-sac in the suburban town of Ridgewood, NJ.
Becoming a first time parent as his mother's caregiver, Mark had many ups and downs but he knew that the most important thing was that his mother was taken care of with respect and love. He had to make sure that his mother trusted him and that she understood that he would always be respectful and have her best interests at heart.
