The Feminine Touch is in conversation with Mr Nhlanhla Mabuza who just released his book and he is also a coach.

On the surface, Diné author Daniel Vandever's picture books might appear to be straightforward stories, but the messages about the power of imagination and adventure in his books are imbued with layers of meaning. In his book Fall in Line, Holden!, a little boy breaks free from the constraints of rules and discipline by using his imagination. On a deeper level, the book speaks to the history of Indian Boarding Schools in pushing cultural assimilation. Likewise, in his wordless picture book Herizon, a girl goes on a magic scarf ride to find her lost sheep. This book is imbued with symbolism about the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) epidemic, as well as cultural references to the Navajo Nation. Herizon was nominated to represent New Mexico at the 2024 National Book Festival.

Most educational material for kids ends up being either too dry or too confusing, leaving both children and parents feeling stuck. It's frustrating when a topic feels important, but every attempt to explain it just leads to glazed-over eyes. The magic happens when a story can turn something dense into something fun—when kids are laughing, asking questions, and actually remembering what they learned. A good children's book doesn't just teach—it creates a shared moment between adult and child that sticks far beyond the last page. Lisa M. Bell blends creativity with clarity, turning complex ideas into stories kids actually enjoy. From solar energy to school adventures, her books simplify big topics without talking down to young readers. After leaving a sales job behind, she found her stride as a full-time author, proving it's never too late to rewrite your own story. Today, she shares how she crafts engaging narratives, markets her work, and navigates the publishing world. Her mission is to make learning fun—and help kids see the world through curious, confident eyes. Stay tuned! Resources: Lisa Bell | Check out my children's books & health & travel articles.

SHLTMM CAN NOW BE HEARD ON YOUTUBE:YOUTUBE CHANNEL LINK: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoUWxgQECqrMqI1ylVH9DpwAs I mention in the introduction of my show, Gramps Jeffrey, I believe is the first grandfather I've interviewed on SHLTMM, so that's pretty great. I was so happy to hear how engaged he is with his grandchildren.Gramps' mother's name was Faye  and she really left quite an impression on him and his brother.  Faye was the youngest of 3 children, with two older brothers. Growing up during the Depression and  WWII, known as The Greatest Generation, was a very challenging time, "and my mother lived up to every expectation", continues Gramps.  While raising her two boys, she  insisted they turn off the tv and read-no if, ands or buts. "We loved our mother," says Gramps, referring to him and his brother. They grew up in a small town in Ohio, about 50 miles outside Columbus,  where they were free to play outside and knew when to come home in time for dinner. He had relatives nearby as well, including  lots of love and support from his grandmother and uncle.Gramps brags, "mom always had a positive attitude.  Her glass was always half full  and she was always looking at the 'bright side of life."  That philosophy  and her passion of reading certainly influenced Gramps and his interest in writing.  It's clearly stayed with him even today because he continues to write and read to  his 6 grandchildren."Mom would remind us regularly that we were very fortunate and had a good life, but that we can't forget other people. This world is hard and she knew it," remarks Gramps.  Faye had learned many life lessons from her paternal grandmother who lost her husband suddenly when he was only 49. She was left  to raise her  children  on her own, including Fay's dad. She also raised her nephew who had also lost his parents. But her grandmother was always smiling regardless of her hardships.Gramps Jeffrey is very concerned about the different parenting styles  today. Most concerns him most and feels is most important for every child is 'one on one attention' from the parent. Gramps feels so blessed to have had such a devoted mother, and hopes that parents still take the time to put the phone down, turn the computer off and just sit and read or spend that precious time with your children. Gramps' mom gave him such a sense of security. "We could always go home and feel secure, you felt love, you felt protected," remarks Gramps about his mom. One of his mom's favorite quotes was "when you love, you will teach others how to love."Gramps Jeffrey is truly committed to sharing this message. He's got every little child on his mind in hopes that they get all the loving that they truly deserve.Gramps Jeffrey is his pen name. His real name is Marc Joseph. Here is a link to his LinkedIn profile:https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcjoseph/Reviews of I Don't Want to Turn 3Here are links to the site, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and the book on Amazon and Barnes & Noble:https://grampsjeffrey.com/https://www.facebook.com/Author-Gramps-Jeffrey-102652905388092/https://www.linkedin.com/in/gramps-jeffrey-3b022b214/https://twitter.com/AuthorGrampshttps://www.instagram.com/authorgrampsjeffrey/https://www.pinterest.com/hellogrampsjeffrey/_created/ Firebird Book Award WinnerMom's Choice Award Winner   "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Discover Lafayette is thrilled to welcome Kiki Frayard, founder of Kiki, a boutique store known for its exquisite selection of fine jewelry, fragrances, handbags, and other carefully curated items from designers across the world. While Kiki is known for offering unique designs, Kiki says, "Anybody can walk in to buy fun or lower price point jewelry at $75 to $250. We also offer jewelry up to $65,000." In addition to her successful retail business, Kiki recently ventured into children's literature with her book Lila Says No, cleverly illustrated by Aileen Bennett. Her passion for beauty and creativity extends beyond retail, as seen on her vibrant Instagram page, where she shares colorful and inspirational table settings for various events. Kiki, an Opelousas native, has strong ties to the Lafayette community. She is the sister of Marilyn Castle, retired 15th JDC judge, and Joan Dubuisson of Cox Business. She graduated from UL-Lafayette with degrees in Art History and English, initially intending to become an art teacher before discovering her passion for advertising and retail. Her career has been a fascinating journey, including stints as a nightclub singer in New Orleans, a radio advertising executive, and an ad agency owner. Working alongside advertising legend George Graham, Kiki honed her skills in creative writing and marketing, ultimately paving the way for her entrepreneurial success. Kiki opened her boutique in River Ranch after gaining invaluable retail experience from Molly Flanagan, owner of Molly's. She and her daughter, Katie, built the business together, expanding to Baton Rouge and establishing Kiki as a premier shopping destination. A life-changing car accident in 2007 prompted Kiki to embrace retail fully, leaving advertising to focus on her boutique. She and Katie meticulously designed the store, ensuring an elevated shopping experience comparable to high-end retailers in New York and beyond. Kiki says, "We knew we wanted to do something nice. We didn't want it to be a hodgepodge of display cases and just thrown together. We really wanted it to be the nicest store in Lafayette. "We had a vision of doing jewelry with designers in mind so that every case was dedicated to a designer. The handbags were displayed one on a shelf to make it seem really special so that everything seemed a little elevated. That worked when people walked in the store. Also, with most merchandise, if you don't turn it, you got to put it on sale, you've got to get rid of it, you got to turn. But jewelry isn't like that. We could have an expensive piece of jewelry and it could be there for two years, and then someone comes in and and buys it. So you don't have to discount quite as much. The same thing with perfume." Beyond retail, Kiki has made a mark in the Lafayette community. She played a crucial role in the development of Lafayette's downtown playground, recognizing its value in revitalizing the area. Her passion for community enrichment continues to shape her contributions to the city's cultural and economic landscape. Kiki's love for creativity extends to her personal life, where she enjoys setting stunning tablescapes for family gatherings. Her collections of fine china and linens reflect her impeccable taste and appreciation for beauty. Her foray into children's literature has been met with great enthusiasm. Lila Says No is resonating with parents and educators, with notable endorsements from child psychologist Carolyn Helm. The book received a glowing review rom Kirkus as "quirky and entertaining, with a kid and parent-savvy message." Kiki's deep admiration for children's literature and her collection of over 500 books inspired her to finally write her own story, with more books potentially on the horizon. Though retired from store ownership, Kiki remains an integral part of Kiki, still attending market trips and influencing the store's aesthetic.

In speaking with my two guests, they shared stories of the three generations of writers in the family including, Irene's mother, Wilma, followed by my guest, Irene and her son Brendan. Brendan is an award winning graphic novel/picture book author and acquiring editor at Blackstone Publishing where he also runs the TV and Film Division even made notice of having his maternal grandmothers published books on his desk. Brendan shares that he was always supported and encouraged by his family with his passion for comic books which he started writing and drawing caricatures at a young age.In time, Irene expressed "that the family was moving in a different direction and the divorce was almost inevitable." Irene continues, "I'm highly emotionally intelligent and I finally found my tribe. I found people who spoke my language." This all occurred once she went back to school for her Masters Degree in Counseling, and later on became a social worker. Brendan raves about his childhood as a latch key kid. He loved growing up in Connecticut. And now as a father, he appreciates even more what it takes for parents to raise their children. And now he's learned even more about what his mother was going through raising the four Deneen children.Both Irene and Brendan claim to be emotionally intelligent-they are very good at listening to others, which Brendan feels that "not many people listen to one another these days." Brendan has always been there for his mom as a sounding board. Irene says " Brendan was my listening post." When she needed to talk, she call Brendan.They have a special bond for sure. They respect one another.Irene Deneen Murray: Irene Deneen Murray grew up in the 50's, an era when a woman could be a nurse, teacher or secretary. She chose teacher because it pleased her mother. In truth the first half of her life was devoted to taking care of or pleasing her mother. At age 50 having raised 4 kids in a Hollywood -worthy suburb, Irene became a divorcee and learned to love being more adventurous than she had previously ever imagined. By then she was working as a social worker having recently earned a Master's Degree in Counseling. Irene loves the natural world and has been a devoted hiker and later a biker, paddler and pretty consistently a practitioner of yoga. She continues these pastimes presently sometimes to the chagrin of her children since they may picture her falling off a cliff, rolling over in her kayak or some other catastrophe. Her children and grandchildren are her greatest achievement. She is a good observer and has insight galore but is sometimes amazed at how each of her children has developed so uniquely. Brendan Deneen is the author of the novelsThe Ninth Circle andThe Chrysalis, as well as the bestselling four-volume Night Night, Groot picture book series for Marvel/Disney. He's also the author of the middle-grade graphic novelGreen Arrow: Stranded for DC Comics; the novels Morbius: Blood Ties and Guardians of the Galaxy: Annihilation:Conquest from Marvel/Titan, and Alien: Uncivil War from 20th Century Studios/Titan. His other graphic novel work includes multiple volumes of Flash Gordon, an original Island of Misfit Toys book, and the original graphic novel Scatterbrain. In addition to his writing, Brendan has been working in the publishing and film/TV industries for twenty-five years, including development jobs with Scott Rudin Productions and Miramax, as well as editorial and book-to-film jobs with St. Martin's Press and Tor Books. He currently works at Blackstone Publishing, where he's an acquiring editor in addition to running the company's film/TV division, which he created, and where he has dozens of literary projects set up at movie studios, streamers, and networks. His short stories and essays have been published by St. Martin's Press, Reader's Digest Books, 13Thirty Press, and Necro Publications.  Brendan Deneen's Written Works:NOVELS                                                                    The Ninth CircleThe ChrysalisMorbius: Blood TiesGuardians of the Galaxy: Annihilation--ConquestAlien: Uncivil WarTracer GRAPHIC NOVELSScatterbrainFlash Gordon: The Mercy WarsFlash Gordon: Invasion of the Red Sword Flash Gordon: The Vengeance of MingThe Island of Misfit Toys Green Arrow: Stranded PICTURE BOOKSNight Night, Groot First Day of Groot!Snow Day for Groot!Summer Adventure for Groot!

In this episode, I unpack religious trauma with Shelley Olm.  Shelley is a certified Usui Holy Fire III Reiki Master, Sound Bath Facilitator, Master Vibrational Sound Healer, Yoga RYT 500, Advanced Buti Yoga Instructor, AFAA Group fitness instructor and Children's Book Author. As a lifelong student, there is always more to learn, and she continually strives for more knowledge and experience. Because each situation and every person are different, Shelley likes to combine different healing modalities together depending on what type of healing is needed. This could be anything from placing singing bowls directly on the body in combination with energy work, to breathwork, sound bath, meditation, drumming, and vocal toning. Rooted in her love for Christ and for people, Shelley leads intuitive, Bible-based, spirit-led sound baths designed to nurture the soul and release trauma. Her sound baths are a unique blend of spiritual guidance and healing sound, aiming to uplift and restore every participant. Whether through the resonance of sound or the wisdom of scripture, Shelley is committed to helping others find their inner fire with peace, joy, and deep inner healing. We are vibrational beings; therefore, our body responds to the vibrational quality of sound as it enters the body in waves, balancing the Chakras, removing stuck energy, and opening the body to receive healing energy from the source of all things.  In her spare time, Shelley enjoys spending time with family, writing, and trail running.

Our featured interview on tonight's show is with Ben Rapaport. Ben has been known internationally as an avid pipe smoker, antique pipe collector, and book author. His first book on pipes was published in 1972, and his latest book - his 10th - is out now in very limited quantities. The distribution has already sold out, but you can still get a copy of "The Wide World of Wood Tobacco Pipes. Two Centuries of Craftsmanship and Creativity" by contacting him directly at ben70gray@gmail.com. At the top of the show we'll be turning the tables on our recurring Ask the Pipemaker segment. This time, Jeff Gracik will ask the questions, which Brian will answer as a pipe collector, and you can give your answers too.
