What fuels you? I'm Carli Jeen, the host of OYIEL (pronounced “oil”). I'm fascinated by this instrumental question and tired of scrolling through social media highlights, never getting to the root of it — so I’m opening up the convo. Because our struggles are just as much a part of our journey, this…
Our next guest is former Miss Michigan and flight attendant of 30+ years, Cherie Brenner. Cherie happens to be my Aunt, but because of our strong free spirited bond and love for life, she’s become a friend. In this revealing conversation, Cherie’s bravery and vulnerability about being cheated on in her 25-year long marriage reveals wisdom that everyone can learn from. We also begin the podcast talking about my mother's struggle with infertility and how Cherie’s prayers made a difference (obviously, cause well… I’m here). Her heart-aching yet redeeming story brings tears to the eyes but hope to the soul.

Lindsay Russo (Founder of Angel House, married to Dominic Russo, Founder of Missions.Me and Mom of Three) could not be more fun and down to earth. With a husband that travels the world speaking to 1,000’s, Lindsay knows who she is enough to know that speaking to the masses is not for her, though through other means, her impact and voice is far from small. At the age of 23, Lindsay founded Angel House, a focused rescue initiative for abandoned orphans and trafficking victims throughout India and Southeast Asia. Through her efforts, more than 4,000 orphaned children who would otherwise be reduced to a life of begging and homelessness are enrolled in school and flourishing in over 150 safe and loving homes. In 2018, Angel House opened it’s first Freedom Campus in Nepal which rescues, rehabilitates and empowers young girls from the atrocity of human trafficking. The vision of Angel House was dramatically accelerated in 2011 when Lindsay participated on the NBC game show "Minute To Win It" where Angel House was featured to more than 8.5 million household viewers. Since that point, Angel House has appeared in numerous other global media platforms as well as ABC’s popular television show “Shark Tank.” The vision of Angel House is to rescue 100,000 children and trafficking victims.
