Episode 323 Welcome back to the To 50 and Beyond Podcast! I've missed being here with you. Coming your way are brand new episodes for the summer, starting with today's episode, which is all about staying alcohol-free on the "patio" this summer.  Your "patio" is any challenge, including a literal patio, that you are concerned may come between you and your alcohol-free lifestyle.  What you'll hear: I'll help you identify what your specific summer triggers are instead of feeling overwhelmed by "not drinking all summer.” The reason why trying to live the same summer as when you were drinking can leave you feeling let down. I share my own experience with patios, summer wines, and how I had to change things up. Practical ways to transform your challenging spaces—whether that means skipping your Aunt Sally's barbecue or making your patio an alcohol-free friendly zone with new plants and glassware. I'll share how I went from avoiding my couch to creating new rituals, and how you can decide what works for you (and change your mind anytime). We get one summer of 2025 - let's make it the one you want, not the one you've lived in the past.  I'm with you!  Thank you for listening!    Join the Team!  Team Alcohol-Free (TAF) is an online community created exclusively for midlife women who have chosen to live alcohol-free.

Dr. Justine Weber joins Susan Guthrie to share what it really looks like to navigate a relationship with someone who exhibits narcissistic or high-conflict behavior - from the moment someone starts questioning things to the long road of healing on the other side. Together, Susan and Justine walk through the five stages of divorcing a narcissist, from the first signs of doubt to post-divorce healing. Whether a listener is thinking about leaving, stuck in the thick of it, or still reeling years after the divorce, Justine offers insights for every stage. As both a therapist and coach, she's helped countless individuals move from confusion and survival mode to clarity and stability. Susan and Justine explore what it means to leave strategically, how to stay safe and grounded, and why documenting behavior, no matter how small, can be one of the most important steps a person can take. Justine also shares guidance on supporting children through the chaos and what it takes to rebuild life after abuse. This episode is a reminder that no one has to do it alone, and they shouldn't. Justine's tips, contact information, and downloadable resource are all linked in the show notes. What You'll Discover in This Episode: Document everything - privately and securely - to stay grounded and protect yourself. Don't leave impulsively. Build a plan, gather support, and consult professionals first. Ask attorneys about handling manipulation, not labels like “narcissist.” Be the calm, safe parent your kids can count on—listen, don't gaslight. Healing is possible, but you can't do it alone. Support and strategy make all the difference. More About Our Special Guest, Justine Weber:  Justine Weber is a licensed clinical psychologist, author, and coach.

Season 3, Episode 47Title: “Your direction is more important than your speed.”Subtitle: From Surviving to Serving: Reclaiming Purpose Through Pain In this deeply moving episode of the Resilient Voices & Beyond Podcast, host Michael D. Davis-Thomas (MDDTSpeaks) sits down with Andrea Atkins—a single mother of four, foster care alumni, and child welfare specialist—for an unfiltered, soul-stirring conversation about survival, motherhood, healing, and the audacity to rewrite your own narrative. With raw vulnerability and unwavering strength, Andrea shares her journey through the foster care system—beginning with removal at age four, adoption at ten, and ultimately a disrupted adoption that led her to find family in unexpected places. But this isn't just a story about trauma. It's a testimony of intentional healing, of learning to embrace authenticity after years of masking pain, and of turning personal wounds into a mission of service. Now a child welfare professional, Andrea doesn't just occupy space in the system—she's reshaping it. Fueled by lived experience and maternal wisdom, she advocates for youth who feel voiceless and unseen, helping to create trauma-informed spaces rooted in dignity, empathy, and care. This episode unpacks the messy, miraculous in-between: the tension of healing while serving, the weight of single motherhood, and the power in moving forward—not fast, but faithfully. Key Themes Covered:Growing up in and aging out of the foster care systemNavigating disrupted adoption, identity loss, and cultural disconnectionBreaking cycles and reclaiming voice through motherhoodThe unspoken pressures of “beating the statistics”From performance to purpose: why healing is the real workSystemic gaps in child welfare and the role of lived experience expertsSelf-forgiveness, therapy, and the slow walk toward wholenessThe power of proximity in advocacy and why small actions matterWhether you're a parent, professional, survivor, or simply someone navigating life's unpredictable terrain—this episode will meet you right where you are. Andrea's story is proof that your pain is not pointless, your pace is not your identity, and your past doesn't disqualify your purpose.Guest: Andrea AtkinsFoster Care Alumni | Child Welfare Specialist | Advocate | Boy Mom of 4

In this must-listen archived episode Susan Guthrie, Esq. is joined by Professor Stephanie Tang to unpack one of the most talked-about, and misunderstood, topics in family court: the “best interests of the child” standard. Listeners often ask what this phrase actually means when it comes to custody decisions, and as Susan and Professor Tang explore, it's far more nuanced than most realize.  From the wide-ranging factors judges consider to the pivotal role of judicial discretion, Professor Tang explains why this seemingly simple concept is actually one of the most complex aspects of family law. Whether you're a parent navigating custody, a legal professional, or just curious about how the courts operate, this episode offers a thoughtful, eye-opening perspective you won't want to miss. What You'll Discover in This Episode: Where the “best interests of the child” standard originated Family court considerations of factors related to custody hearings What judges look at when it comes to a child's professed wishes  Stephanie answers, “Can a parent request a change to custodial orders over time if they don't agree with the best interests of children's determination?”  Does the bearing of what a parent wants come into play?

Episode Title: "Live life to the fullest, excel despite challenges, and never let those who wish you harm dictate your path."Season 3, Episode 43In this raw and transformative episode of Resilient Voices & Beyond Podcast, host Michael D. Davis-Thomas is joined by Maegan “Mae” Mason, a resilient advocate, mentor, and lived experience expert who shares her powerful story of survival, self-discovery, and growth.Mae opens up about her early life—navigating a turbulent home environment that led her into the juvenile justice system by the age of 13. Through 12 years of personal turmoil, system involvement, and institutionalization, she encountered abuse, neglect, and the emotional weight of being misunderstood. Her story reflects the harsh realities many youth face when systems fail to meet their needs with compassion and care.But Mae didn't let that become her final chapter. She speaks openly about the turning points in her journey—missing key family moments while incarcerated, the comfort of institutionalization, and how writing, therapy, and mentorship helped her begin healing. Mae found her voice through poetry and began giving back, mentoring girls in similar situations, and building genuine relationships with youth at her job site.In this episode, Michael and Mae discuss:The emotional impact of growing up in the systemThe importance of having even just one supportive adultThe healing power of writing, poetry, and creative expressionHow mentorship and lived experience shape better youth servicesReintegration challenges after incarceration and aging outThe urgency of community-based alternatives to institutional settingsSelf-care and coping strategies for those working within youth-serving systemsMae's message is one of radical truth, vulnerability, and empowerment.
