"Dorothy" was the name that the institution assigned to this new born baby girl that had been dropped off at this facility by the unmarried biological mother. At this time, there was unprecedented prejudice against illegitimate children and unwed mothers. This facility was government run and theoretically a highly regarded home for foundlings from the ages of 5 to 12 years old. At which point they were to have trained the children who were not returned to their families, with skills in order for them to be placed in homes as house maids, servants, etc. The environment that shaped Dorothy was brutal. Justine shares stories of her mom's experience of being pushed in the pool and held under the water before she even knew how to swim. Often her mother and other children were locked up in cupboards or closets, in the dark with no food or water for days on end. Physical, emotional and psychological abuse certainly took a toll on this young girls life. One that she never was fully able to recover from.
Justine, shares the stories of her experience growing up in California with her mother and father. Dorothy presented as sophisticated, upper class, a well educated woman. All that Justine knew was that her mother was of British Royalty. My guest grew up taking lessons for this and that, and yet never once met any of her so called "English Royalty" relatives. Her home was absolutely beautiful, the finest of everything imaginable, except perhaps, happiness.
On Justine's journey to retrace her mother's steps and visiting the institution, which now exists as a museum, she was able to see all the letters that her maternal grandmother had been writing on a regular basis, to the institution inquiring about her beautiful baby girl. In response, the administration would respond with a non committal letter with very little information.
Dorothy suffered tremendously from the abuse she had endured all those years. It's so unfortunate that it was kept a secret until after her death.
"The Secret Life of Dorothy Soames" is a brilliant memoir, one of which should help us use this experience in order to help others struggling with emotional and mental illness.
Justine had to distance herself from her mom and all the years of living with someone with mental illness, before she could read her mother's life story. "By reading my grandmother's letters, I realized that there was a trait that my mother had, my mother had and that I have and that's tenacity, " says Cowan proudly. "Plowing through difficulties and not giving up."

Letting go of the busyness, was a gift Jennifer gave to herself.
Her grandmother was always keeping busy as was her mom, but Jennifer wasn't happy just doing things that she didn't really want to do.
My guest wanted to satisfy her interests of both the right and left sides of her brain. Becoming an engineer seemed like a logical career choice because her father was an engineer. Twenty years later, she realized she was bored and needed more. She retired and completed her Masters degree in Industrial Design. When Jennifer mentioned to her mom that she may pursue an architecture degree, her mother said "don't waste your time."
Jennifer's grandfather started having heart complications when her mom was just 9 years old. Jennifer is certain this is where and when the anxiety issues started for her mother. Jennifer's grandmother was also anxious and worried about her husband's health. Both women were always ready for the next emergency. Waiting for the other shoe to drop. Anxiety and stress can easily be passed down from generation to generation. In understanding her family's serious circumstances at the time, Jennifer felt it was now time to stop the cycle of anxiety and being busy just for the sake of being busy.
When intuition suggests something has to change, it's a good idea to listen to that silent voice. Jennifer took advantage of her downtime during the pandemic to reflect, plan, try new ways, analyze, stop, evaluate and try again.
Her result is her book Natural Reflectors.
Natural Reflectors: Moving From Burnout to Engagement by Phasing Reflection into Actions (Natural Reflectors Series Book 1)
Amazon Link: Natural Reflectors
https://www.amazon.com/Natural-Reflectors-Burnout-Engagement-Reflection-ebook/dp/B09DFNLLDW
The World Health Organization names stress as the health epidemic of the 21st Century. Slowing down not only reduces stress, but produces outcomes with a greater impact.
Bill Burnett from Stanford’s Design Your Life Lab explaining how we can only make good decisions when listening to both our mind and bodyStacy Levy, an environmental artist revealing the stories in nature that surround each of us, allowing us to see them, appreciate them, consider them, and maybe even learn from themCarl Honore describing how our behavior is heavily influenced by our definition of time
Natural Reflectors explores the idea of instilling, within our actions, a mindset of intentional reflection taken from the power of nature’s cycles. You will learn how a healthy process of managing one’s life has both elements of reflection and action. Find within these pages stories such as:If you have ever thought that there must be a better way to find meaning and purpose in your everyday life, read

Gerry Strain is a former Football player in Scotland. He played Football ( known as Soccer in America) for many many years and eventually he had to come to the understanding that he wasn't going to rise to the professional level that he aspired to for many reasons. He feels it had a lot to do with not being from the proper socio-economic class. Eventually, Gerry became an agent and now he's the Director of Hamilton Academical Football Club.
When Gerry first contacted me, he sent me a list of women that have impacted his life. First and foremost, his mum and nana. Then he went on to mention his wife, Jennifer, his aunt Marie, his daughter, Grace and several co-workers and employers. Gerry is such a gracious Scott. Considering his experience growing up, Gerry shares stories of how his relationship with his mom was stained. He missed having a father that was a main stay in his life. That said, Catherine was on her own and was trying to do her best. Strain offered this as a description of his mother, " mom's biggest strengths were also her biggest weaknesses." Gerry says he has this same instinct, "the generosity and giving aspect."
Gerry says that his mother taught him to watch out for not only his brother, but for his friends, family and neighbors. Though Gerry didn't have much, there was always someone in their neighborhood that was lonely and in need, if not food, at least companionship. Loyalty is one of the many gifts his mum taught him. "I have the same circle of people around me as I've had all my life. They're in that circle because I know they love me and care about me," continues Gerry. "But my own personal aspirations are to be as financially secure as I possibly can and earn as much as I can. I like to do a lot of positive things. I don't want to be wealthy to be the wealthiest guy in the room. I want to be wealthy so I can make a difference to someone." One of Gerry's favorite sayings is "your network is your networth."
Nana, whose name was Josephine, played a different role in Gerry's life than his mum did. "She played a mothering role and I could tell her anything," according to Gerry. "I could have robbed a bank and committed fifteen murders and my Nana would have said I was innocent." My guest describes his Nana as a great woman, very strong, vary staunch in her beliefs and convictions. She taught both boys about loyalty, and what you should expect back and where you draw the lines.

In time, Tina became "the fixer" in the household. The fights and yelling was too much for Tina and she also took on the role of being her younger sister's protector. She felt that she needed to calm everyone down most importantly for herself to feel safe.
Feeling abandoned and neglected early on in her life, my guest's mother, was a highly sensitive child and she didn't get as much attention as she needed as a child. The family deemed her "the neurotic child." It seemed as though the only thing that Leilani's family seemed to valued was her beauty. Leilani became a swimsuit model as a young teen and was basically on her own. This took place between, 1953-54 and she experienced many advances from men as one would imagine and a reminder that this was way before the "Me Too" movement.
Tina had to put up some of her own boundaries between she, her sister and her mom. The triggers of infighting in the family was not where Tina wanted to keep her heart.
Later on in life, as Leilani was starting to suffer from dementia, Tina was able to spend three weeks with her mother, visiting her and helping take care of her. Tina says their common love that they so embraced when Tina was a baby, was so present during those visits. None of the terrible threatening or fearful tendencies showed their face and Tina is so grateful for that special time to rekindle their relationship as though nothing had ever gotten between them.
Tina made reference to a poem by Dorothy Lae Nolte in our conversation. Please find it below. It's still stands strong today regarding principles we try and teach our children and the principles that we hope many children never have to experience.
Children Learn What They Live
By Dorothy Law NolteIf children live with criticism, they learn to condemn. If children live with hostility, they learn to fight.
If children live with ridicule, they learn to be shy. If children live with shame, they learn to feel guilty.
If children live with encouragement, they learn confidence. If children live with tolerance, they learn to be patient.
If children live with praise, they learn to appreciate. If children live with acceptance, they learn to love.
If children live with approval, they learn to like themselves. If children live with honesty, they learn truthfulness.
If children live with security, they learn to have faith in themselves and others.
If children live with friendliness, they learn the world is a nice place in which to live.

Beth was raised in Worcester, MA and she was the youngest of three children. Unfortunately, she was born seventeen years after her second oldest sister. She was basically raised as an only child and unfortunately didn't get much attention from her parents. Alan's grandparents felt that she was a pretty blond haired, blue eyed young lady and that she'd get married and start a family. They never instilled any ideals about higher education and basically left her to fend for herself.
Well, she and her husband did fall in love and started a loving family but then her dreams were crushed when she suddenly lost the love of her life and the father of her two children in the car accident.
Beth did her best to encourage her children to shoot for the stars, aim high and big, go to college, many more doors will open for you. Alan says he's so grateful to his mom for "teaching him to aim high. She'd say you'll have choices. She taught me to care about school." My guest completed his Engineering degree at WPI, Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Though very successful, he felt as though he wasn't satisfied.
At this crossroads of his life, Alan felt as though he wasn't "as focused on the inside-out, I was focused on the outside-in and I didn't realize it." Loosing his father at 2 1/2-3 years old was crushing for the entire family and says "loosing a father very young, it takes a lot of humility to admit that you need hope. Hope inspires others to better their best."
One thing that Alan struggled with is that he didn't feel that his mother's advice matched her actions. "No one ever really led by example. So I've invested the last ten years, time and effort, on my own self improvement." Alan is now the CEO and Podcast Co-host of Next Level University as well as the Co Host of The Conscious Couples Podcast. Alan is a business and life coach. He'll help you stay focused, track your progress and achieve your best life.

Throughout my conversation with Jordan, she spoke of what a loving family she's a part of. So much open conversation, a vast view of politics and current events going on in the world. Jordan is quick to point out that "my entire life I was raised in such an unapologetically feminist household. Both parents are/were feminists and both parents believed in female leadership." So it's no real surprise that Jordan is now helping women get elected in the House and/or Senate, that have never elected a female candidate before.
Jordan describes her mother as strong and loving, very protective and supportive. "Both of my parents were so generous with their time. They made it to everything, (school activities, etc.) and they were so generous with how much they shared with us about their lives."
Now that Jordan is a mother, it has unlocked a new understanding of her mom's amazing role of keeping she and her sisters safe. "Mom was so gently, gracious, poised, the classiest person I know. Very put together, calm presence, very natural, always made us feel very loved," shares Zaslow.
There's so much more to Jordan's past and future. Hope you enjoy the listen. Find out more about Jordan Zaslow with the links below.

At 50, Julie's mom got divorced, became a real estate agent and started a new life.
Julie Campbell says, " we are more than our fears." And she knows first hand that it's possible to move on from your past and move on from your limiting beliefs. Julie is a New York actor and founder of Center Stage Connections, where she uses her acting background and tools to help others "move beyond limiting beliefs, communicate with authenticity and presence , speak with courage and clarity and make connections with colleagues and clients that build relationships, grow your business and create the work and life that you imagine."
Julie has a wonderful role model in her mother. In her youth, Liz was an avid athlete with a passion for basketball. Liz, as a youth, was a softball and basketball coach. She was a proof reader and typist long before computers, designer and seamstress, loved to cook and dance and a self taught handyman. My guest learned from her mother to not let anyone get in your way and never give anyone the ability to control or demoralize you. Liz did attempt to leave her husband in order to protect her children, yet realized that she wouldn't be able to offer her children a financially stable future and higher education because she was a stay at home mom at the time. Early on in her career, Liz had been a well loved nurse that became very involved in her children's lives.
According to Julie, the basis of Center Stage Connections is " building a business that is deeply rooted in supporting others to step into their story-at work at home and in life." Because of her experience growing up in a volatile environment, Julie has so much to offer others struggling to find their truth, helping them work through their own origin stories and create their own future.

Sarah is a writer and this is the first time her work has been published in the New York Times. the link is below.
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/23/style/modern-love-looking-for-my-mother.html
This is an unusual love story where a Pakistani woman proposed to her lover which was culturally not the norm. They were both young and very much in love. Unfortunately, Kaukab, translated from Arabic, means "star" or "constellation" was diagnosed with Leukemia a few years after their daughter's were born. Sarah's parents went to London for a bone marrow transplant.
This was the beginning of tearing the family apart. The girls moved in with family members in Saudi Arabia, while their dad stayed in London.
Her father was distraught and couldn't even tell the girls that their mother had passed away until days later. They did not attend their mother's funeral, though they were close by. The family members blamed Sarah's father for Kaukab's death.
This and more lead to Sarah blaming herself for her mother's death. She believes that her mom was trying to teach her to let go, but either way Sarah has spent a good part of her life blaming herself for her mother's death.
Sarah has very few personal possessions to remember her mother by. She has a card that her mother wrote her when in the hospital, that she still has today. Her mother had hopes of seeing her girls again but fate had a different plan. And not too long ago, Sarah was able to bring home two embroideries that her mother had made, many years ago and they hang in Sarah's home today.
Sarah's relatives have told her, that her mother handled her illness very eloquently, she didn't give into despair and she accepted her illness and her death with grace.
My guest has plans for writing fiction, short stories, kids books and more.

This is a story of a woman who didn't realize she had neurological conditions that were perhaps altering her abilities until she was in her forties. You ask how is that possible? Well, Sadie thought that everyone was just like her. She assumed everyone else's brain worked just like hers. Her biggest cheerleader was her grandmother, who since Sadie was a little girl, has catalogued everything her granddaughter has written or drawn. Adele says of her grandmother "she is perfect and just brimming with fantastic folksy wisdom."
"Do I Know You, A Faceblind Reporter's Journey into the Science of Sight, Memory, and Imagination," is Sadie's recently released book and there's a wealth of information for anyone who thinks perhaps they are alone in the discovery of being neurodivergent. Scientists believe that these types of conditions may actually give you an edge as an artist.
One of the many gifts of having a poor memory, Sadie mentioned, is that she lives in the moment. Her grandmother "felt comforted by her self expression and it helped her make meaning out of the chaos of life," according to my guest.
Sadie has a condition call SDAM, which stands for-SEVERELY DEFFICIENT AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL MEMORY.
Sadie's videos on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=sadie+Dingfelder
4 RARE NEUROLOGICAL CONDITIONS.
FACEBLIND (prosopagnosia-(pur·suh·pag·now·zhuh, is a condition that makes it difficult to recognize faces, even though vision is normal,
STEREOBLINDNESS- The inability to see in 3D,
APHANTASIA- (AYE-FAN-TA-SHUH). The inability to form mental images of real or imaginary people and places, the inability to actually conjure up a mental image — or “picture” something — in one's mind.
* AMBLYOPIA- (AM-BLEE-O PIA) (also called lazy eye) is a type of poor vision that usually happens in just 1 eye but less commonly in both eyes.
STRABISMUS-(struh·biz·muhs) Abnormal alignment of the eyes; the condition of having a squint.

My guest grew up in Chicopee, MA, a mill town, textiles/paper, with hard working moms and dads just trying to provide for their families. The large immigrant community was trying to develop new skills while developing new ties with their new neighbors. Ken's father's family was from Quebec, Canada and his mom, Cindy, her family immigrated from Scotland.
There's quite a bit to this story that Ken shared with me and I'm not going to reveal all of it other than saying it was at times very difficult to navigate. When things are left better off not spoken about, that leaves lots of unanswered questions.
Ken was often made to feel that he was the special son, the baby of the family, the youngest boy. His 2 older sisters were always there to help out but Ken definitely got his fair share of attention. However, there were 2 other brothers that Ken tells us about in our interview. It's heartbreaking, yet at times maybe one can understand why the decision was made so many years ago.
One of the hardest challenges for Ken as a young boy, was that he "didn't want to be the cause of any more pain for my parents. I grew up trying to do all the right things. My parents were so forgiving." Yet there was always the underlying feeling that "he and his sisters were born to fill the void left by his brothers."
I thought that this was overwhelming and exhausting for a little boy but Ken "thinks that this gave him a real purpose in life. "I turned myself into a person who always did my best, not a perfectionist. Mom just wanted us to do our best." Ken never cut a class, didn't drink till he was of legal age and never got into trouble because he hoped he was helping his parents.
When Ken started working as a producer for the NBA (National Basketball Association), he basically walked through those doors as a lucky, young ambitious kid. Twenty nine years passed and he walked out as a talented, resolute adult with so many questions to answer. He was determined to write about his life and his family and it's all captured in "You're Gonna Miss Me Some Day."
Robert and David were the answer to lots of those questions. He couldn't turn back time but he has them to thank for giving him clarity and peace.
Hope you enjoy our conversation.

As a licensed Marriage and Family Counselor, author and public speaker, Roya Dedeaux hears lots of 'mom' stories. The one she's most proud of is the story of her own mother, Pam. Pam and her siblings as well as her mother, Roya's grandmother, were all educators. Education and learning was always a topic of concern whenever they got together. So when Roya's mom said she wanted to 'unschool' Roya and her sisters, the girls were all very confused.
Roya was just finishing up 4th grade and mom said "I'm not sending you back to school next year." Well you can imagine the confusion amongst the siblings, especially Roya who was going to be starting 5th grade.
Mom was determined to make this work and pleaded, " just trust me for 3 months, if you don't like it, you can go back to school."
I am not an expert by any means, but what I do know is that 'Unschooling' is all about encouraging your child or children to pursue their passions and follow their dreams, whatever they may be. For example, if your child loves animals or marine life, study animals and marine life-take them to zoos and aquariums, do projects-indulge them in their interests. And the same is true for any interest or field of study. "Supporting your children's interests, helps promote better mental health and fulfilled relationships," believes Ms. Dedeaux.
This project of unschooling worked extremely well for my guest. Roya started taking college classes at the age of 13-always taking classes that she was interested in and she had full support from both her father and her mother. She says this was " a celebration of doing things differently, always keeping an open mind about possibilities."
This process encourages and engages kids because these are topics of interest not mandatory subjects of study where tests are required.
The bottom line is that it requires full attention from the parent and your children are happy. Make every adventure and trip a hands on learning experience-as though learning through osmosis.
Roya had no interest in going back to school after a short time and says "my mom gave me to myself forever with her decision to unschool us."
With many many years of higher education, Roya and her sisters are all very happy with the lessons their mom taught them. Roya refers to her mom as "a pioneer," and is so grateful to her mom for the tough decisions that she made when the girls were young.
"Connect With Courage-Practical Ways to Release Fear and Find Joy In The Places Your Kids Take You," is Ms. Dedeaux's most recent book.
I hope you enjoy this episode of SHLTMM.

As a teen, Sam neglected to really connect with his mother. Unfortunately, Eleanor passed away at a very young. In time, as a journalist, Sam realized he had the skills to research his mom's past and get to know her from the beginning. In "Who She Was, My Search For My Mother's Life," you'll find the story of a beautiful young woman who had so many hopes and dreams and life, WWII, the Holocaust and more just got in the way.
Eleanor had everything going for her. She was smart, beautiful, creative and she had many friends. She graduated high school at 16 as the valedictorian of her class. The skies the limit for Eleanor. But life didn't really turn out the way she had hoped or planned.
Her parent's had immigrated from Poland and settled in the Bronx, NY. When the Great Depression, WWII and The Holocaust turned her family's life upside down, Eleanor had to put her dreams aside and get a job which where hard to come by. Her father hadn't been very good at holding down steady work, so Eleanor was the most likely to fill those shoes as the main bread winner for the family.
There's so much more to this story, so I hope you enjoy hearing it through Sam's words and his voice.

Did your mother ever suggest you take a 'SeaMester'-a semester off from college to sail to the caribbean and keep a journal? Or maybe your mom convinced your dad to quit his job and jump in the car for a once in a lifetime family vacation to Alaska? Or how about, forgo Christmas in order to participate in an anti Vietnam war protest in DC?
Most likely not, but Tim Wacker's mother did . Ronnie Wacker, a woman of unfailing generosity and love for her family, lived life by example. Tim has many remarkable stories to share about his mother and all that she had to give. Sometimes we look back with regrets but Ronnie loved life and always grabbed for the gold ring.
"Both my parents showed astonishing poise in the days before they died. It was the last and possibly most important lesson I learned from them", says their son.
Pulitzer Prize Journalist, Tim Wacker, a has made his parents proud.

Rachel's father was a prominent doctor and pastor in Brazil. Unfortunately, Rachel's dad passed away when she was only 9 months old. After a few short years, Theresa, Rachel's mother, finds herself moving to the US on behalf of a sponsorship from a Christian church mainly because of her diseased husband's reputation.
The two women relied heavily on the church community for support, including everything from meals, clothing, babysitting, etc.
While mom was trying to continue her education and hold down three jobs, Rachel often was being cared for by neighbors and fellow church members. However, Rachel had a tough time growing up in a community that had held her father at such high esteem. She felt that they only loved her/Rachel, because she was her father's daughter. Rachel rebelled against the church quite a bit because she didn't really know where she fit in.
As Rachel says, "my mother was the queen of tough love," so when Rachel was rebellious, her mom held stead fast and tried to be patient.
In time, Rachel came to understand the true meaning of faith and found it extremely useful in time of crisis. Her mother was her rock and during this horrific experience, she never once saw her faith falter.
As you listen to this unimaginable story, one that no family should ever experience, you'll hear Rachel say over and over again how faith and hope were an integral part of how she and her family endured this experience.
Rachel has become an Advocate/Ambassador for families victimized by Family Court.
Rachel has a bachelor's degree in communication and an MBA from Pepperdine University, Malibu, CA. Rachel's book "Fractured Hope: A Mother's Fight For Justice," will be released in 2022.

In his 20's, Kevin took a job unexpectedly and stuck with it for a while. He made great money, had a car and beautiful girlfriend, but he realized he still wasn't happy on the inside. He was caught up and looking for happiness in the wrong places.
Now he's motivated and confident and he's helping others get to that "next lever in life"-one that matters. Kevin explains that "it's where each of us can make things happen by embracing the positive messages and intentions that work for us." Kevin and his podcast co-host Alan Lazaros, are helping people "level up their life, their love, their health and wealth-physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health."
Kevin's journey had some ups and downs, as we all do, but "Next Level University" Podcast is helping people all over the world.
It was such a delight to speak with Kevin. I love what he's doing and I'm looking forward to having a conversation with his co-host Alan in the future.
These stories that he shared about Beth and Meema, are heartwarming, encouraging and just a so eye opening. It's not always easy raising our children but it seems that these two women did an amazing job helping Kevin along.
"Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives. Jackie's guests were open and honest and answer the question, are you who you are today because of, or in spite of, your mother and so much more. You'll be amazed at what the responses are.

"It was all just about her," Lang explains. Her mom, Ann, was never going to change. A mother who stuck to her routine whether it was taking a long bath, bike ride, going to the gym , it was all about he needs and wants and not her daughter's. Ann had a tough childhood, grew up in a strict household, so she was going to raise Diane the same way.
There are so many layers to this story, including Diane saying "she has no fond memories of her mother and no other female role models in life." Diane even mentioned that she's blocked out many of her teen years because the family relationship was so bad.
Diane Lang is the author of 3 books: “Creating Balance & Finding Happiness”, “Baby Steps: The Path from Motherhood to Career” and “Mindfully Happy- waking up to life.”
Diane is such an inspiration. She's redirected her own future. She has a loving relationship with her husband and daughter-nothing of which she ever experience as a child living alone in a house with parents who didn't lover her or didn't know how to express their love.
Many wonderful lessons learned from this conversation. You control your destiny, don't blame everyone else if life doesn't turn out the way you expected and it's important to let go of the anger, hate or resentment. There are many upsides to Diane's journey and her years of studying. "I wouldn't be the person that I am today. I'm completely grateful for that and I can see how far I've come and grown. I can be the person who's empathetic and compassionate because of my childhood or despite my childhood," reflects Lang.
People are on this planet to teach us for better or worse.

Once Faith and I had a confirmed our record date and time, Dr. Mitchell wrote saying "coincidentally this is Juneteenth. What interesting alignment and a good opportunity to honor the ancestors who paved the way for so many of us today." And I couldn't have agreed more.
Ophelia, My guest's mother and one of twelve children, was born in Chester County, Pennsylvania. Faith shares stories of her mother and how enthusiastic and encouraging she was. She wanted Faith to experience anything and anywhere, including a love for a robust education, traveling with her mom and dad and Faith loved spending time with her grandmother and mother and listening to stories about the family from past generations.
Faith also loved spending time outdoors in nature exploring. When she was a young girl she lived in rural Michigan mainly because her mother insisted her daughter go to an excellent school. They found a farmer who was desperate to sell his home and though it was an all white, restricted community, he sold it to the Mitchell's.
Her mom used to say, "Faith, make something of yourself," and because the country was still segregated her mom used to speak to her and say "Black people have to progress and education is the way to progress." Another reflection Faith shared with me is another favorite saying of her mom's which is "the parent opens the door and the child walks through."
There's so much more to this conversation. I hope you enjoy the listen. Faith is fascinating. She's passionate about this country and the journey of her forefathers and all that they fought for in order to become the best that they could be.
My guest was sure to point out that "Ophelia was smart, inquisitive and open to learning anything and everything.She studied to be a teacher."
"Both women are ancestors who have been inspirations to me because of their sense of agency--which comes across in the photos--and their courage against the odds.
Captured in the photo of Faith and her mother Ophelia - "it captures my mother and me in 1963 in the Painted Desert and reflects the fact that my parents valued exploration even in the pre-Civil Rights period when most Black people didn't have an opportunity to travel--and it could be dangerous to do so. My mother tried to open doors for me whenever she could and that's the terminology she used," Faith recalled.
The word grio translates to one who is an oral historian and storyteller originally from West Africa.

AJ is the youngest of three children. The eldest, Gary was born in Belarus and about three years old when the family emigrated to the United States.
Tamara didn't have your typical childhood. She was born in the former Soviet Union. During turbulent times, when Tamara was a young girl, she lost many family members, including her mother at the age of five. Though very young when her mom died, she can recall many vivid memories of her and refers to her mom as a "ray of sunshine." It's this positivity that AJ loves and appreciates and hopes to raise his three children in that same kind of environment with similar philosophies.
It's a tough transition, coming to the US, barely speaking english, looking for work and having a family. Sacha, AJ's dad worked non-stop, so Tamara could stay home and be with the children. She eventually worked part-time in the family business in New Jersey, "The Wine Library, which is one of the most highly regarded wine and gourmet food
Aj confesses, " the worst thing I could do is disappoint my mom and dad." Both parents expected a lot from their kids academically though Gary the eldest struggled, Liz their sister did well, but AJ says "it came naturally to me. If I listened in class and did my homework, I got good grades."
In hearing AJ share stories of his mom and dad, he so appreciates how they worked to shield him from a lot of their childhood trauma and sadness. As the youngest, they felt it was important to offer AJ only the good stories of their past. They were setting aside their stories from long ago, to instill happiness, peace and positivity in their children." There's nothing but appreciation and respect for all the hard work his parents did for the family. As first generation Americans, the doors are open wide for any and all opportunities.
AJ and his brother Gary are both major business entrepreneurs and huge sports fans, in particular-huge Jets and Nick's fans! You may be familiar with Vayner Media, a legendary media agency, VaynerX where AJ was the former founder and COO and VaynerSports which Gary and AJ started in 2016. AJ is the Cofounder and CO-CEO. VaynerSports is a sports agency that represents athletes and provides brand consulting services.
Crohn's Disease has unfortunately played a role in AJ's life for many years and he has been active in the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation trying to raise awareness for many years. Crohn's Disease is an inflammatory disease that causes chronic inflammation of the GI tract.

Elinor is definitely driven professionally and personally. She's been studying, exploring and researching how or why she feels as though she had lost her true self, and now she's doing something about it. She's written several books, won many awards for her approach and understanding of bringing "the best of you" forward and getting the best payoff possible. This approach has helped many personally, which in turn has helped them professionally.
There's no doubt about it, Elinor and her mother, have lots of issues, as do many sons and daughters. Elinor explained how her mother's love came with "strings attached and/or waiting for the other shoe to drop." It started when Elinor was very young, four years old, and she realized that she was unable to speak her truth. She became the martyr always trying to save her mother.
Through hypnosis, and an analysis of her female lineage from her mother's side of the family, she came to understand that "they had forgave their desires and they had all forgone their dreams and my guest didn't want to continue down this spiral. She wanted to break this chain and be a spirited, wise and inspirational voice for others.
Lots more to this story and you're able to learn more from Elinor on her podcast, Deconstructing YOU.
In 2025, "Powerhouse In Prison" Elinor's next book will be published and she goes into details about "the mental shackling that diminishes the experience of yourself and how that plays out. When you break the ceiling, the walls come caving in." She admits, "she had to break down to break out."
Hope you enjoy this conversation. Please like and leave a review on Apple podcasts, YOUTUBE or where ever you listen.

His childhood and childhood memories lends itself to his creations today. He has gone back to Cuba a number of times to see his remaining family members and truly understands all that his parents gave up for he and his older sister in order for them to have a more fulfilling life.
Edel is passionate not only about his art but about his family and to hear him share these stories of his mother and the other women in his life including his aunt, Caridad, who arranged for the fishing boat upon which they fled Cuba, his aunt Nancy, grandmother a number of female art teachers, including Mary Nichols, just to name a few, is very touching. They were all very supportive of his interest in art and drawing from a very young age.
June 2024, Edel's most recent children's book "The Mango Tree" was published.
This is truly a remarkable story. Hope you enjoy it.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives. Jackie's guests were open and honest and answer the question, are you who you are today because of, or in spite of, your mother and so much more. You'll be amazed at what the responses are.
