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.

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.

"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.Diane Lang Social media & Website:(11) Diane Lang | LinkedIn(6) FacebookWEBSITE:www.dianelang.org "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

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.   INSTAGRAM:@emmas_postcard_album and @hoodoo_medicine LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/faith-mitchell-0646b313 OTHER: YouTube - https://youtu.be/YeEWX6beGAQ. WEBSITE: https://www.drfaithmitchell.com/  Emma's Postcard Album, Black Lives in the Early Twentieth Century is now available from the University Press of Mississippi, hashtag#Amazon, and hashtag#barnesandnoble!

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.

Working with high-profile guests in such a demanding environment taught me the art of providing unwavering support to clients navigating through highly-stressful situations.Yet, what truly defines me is my personal triumph over alcoholism. My path to recovery was filled with ups and downs as I explored various treatment options, from inpatient and outpatient programs to counseling, AA meetings, and rehab.

Jeremiah joined me to share stories of his mother, who in his mind was "a straight shooter," she told you exactly how and what she felt. She was a huge inspiration in his life and had hoped to take her on a special trip to Israel for her sixtieth birthday. He did eventually get to bring her with him but not exactly as they had imagined.At the same time that his mother was ill, his father had a stroke. Just a tough time for the family, but Adrienne insisted that Jeremiah carry on and continue on his journeys however different they may be.Adrienne was the main money maker in the family. She was the first female technician at Sears, initially repairing smaller appliances and eventually washers and dryers in customers homes. When she'd had enough of that, she moved onto repairs for  Sears -in store cashiers, computer systems and video surveillance. Yes, she had to put up with sexism and discrimination in the workforce, but staying true to herself, she put her head down and just kept on working-never looking for any accolades or special treatment.  Even if she did win an award, Jeremiah says, "she'd put any certificates or awards from work in a drawer.  She didn't need to be celebrated."Jeremiah was there at the Oncologist appointment when Adrienne got the diagnosis and he was there when she died 6 years later. She knew he had his trip planned to go to Egypt and she insisted he go. It made him very sad to know she wasn't going to be there when he returned.It was an absolute pleasure speaking with Jeremiah and I thank him for sharing his very personal stories of his mom Adrienne.There's so much more to hear in our conversation and I've listed more information below about Jeremiah.Jeremiah is a poet in addition to his other talents. The question below is an excerpt from an interview which originally appeared in Inspired Eye, Issue 71, July 2019. It gives you another perspective of my guest."What purpose does photography serve for you?The essayist Joan Didion once wrote that “We forget all too soon the things we thought we could never forget. We forget what we whispered and what we dreamed. We forget who we were.” For me photography is both a way to remember and a way to share my experiences. Here is where I went and here is what I saw, and hopefully I saw something in a way others had not."Below is an excerpt from Jeremiah's website about his most recent award winner book released in 2023, "On to Plan C: A Return to Travel"-On to Plan C:A Return to TravelLiterary Titan Gold Book Award winner! After more than two years of trip cancellations and travel credits, the world finally started to open again in 2022. Part travelogue and part photo essay, On to Plan C finds its author vaccinated, masked, and eager to get back on the road, assessing the realities of a post-COVID world. Includes nearly two hundred color and black & white photos. “These are some of the most storytelling, poignant, and gorgeous photographs I've ever seen” – Indies Today.

My guest is a licensed professional clinical counselor in the state of Ohio.  She has over 30 years experience working with children and parents. Friedman passionately emphasizes, "I love struggling moms, they're trying to heal generational trauma through their own parenting."Ms. Friedman also provides services through  a membership program called childanxietysupport.com, for parents who are parenting anxious kids. We all know the number of anxious kids in the world today is overwhelming, especially because of the past year and a half and COVID."Mom is a survivor of an extremely abusive childhood.  As an abusive survivor, intimate relationships are more complicated," suggests Friedman. She continues, "mom did a lot of good things in her life and she doesn't have any more good to give."Dawn's mother Joyce, never got to go to college and yet she always implied that she wanted Dawn to have more than she did. "She wanted me to have it better than her and she raised be to believe  that I deserved that, but at a certain point, she wanted me to stop growing perhaps because she felt left behind," Friedman sadly admits.The family moved around quite a bit for her dad's job when Dawn was young-at least 6 times until Dawn's mom refused to move again. Within a few years, her parents divorced and Joyce negotiated a settlement for her divorce-instead of alimony, Joyce requested a certificate for a tech school-in place of alimony, Dawn's mom went to a computer school for programming.Once school was completely and Joyce got a job, her life really turned around. She was happy again.Links:Child Anxiety Supportchildanxietysupport.comInstagraminstagram.com/dawnfriedmanmsedFacebookfacebook.com/childanxietysupportLinkedInlinkedin.com/in/dawnfriedman  "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

Sharon, Shaun's mom had 2 kids and  was living in subsidized housing when she  started her janitorial  business in the CD, central district of Seattle, WA.  People laughed and were critical of her because she was 'cleaning houses' but mother knew best.  Lots of drugs and crime hit their neighborhood in the 1980's and she knew she had to make a living to get her kids out of that neighborhood.Mom's dream was greater than her pride" says her son.  "Mom had a dream and she didn't want my  sister and I living in this neighborhood," Shaun says with such high esteem for his mother.The 'drugs in the neighborhood' conversation was a regular occurrence.   Shaun and his sister regularly had the 'safety' conversation with their mother.

The fruit doesn't fall far from the tree. Because of Sharon's education background, she was an ideal partner for Shaun to start up this wonderful camp."Honeybee" is Shaun's nickname for his mother.  "She reminds me of a bee-always buzzing around."  Shaun lovingly brags "the kitchen at camp is called "Honeybee's Kitchen."*CAMP WARRIOR KING-Youth development program  to expose kids to things they'd never experience throughout the year *THE I AM DEFENSE INSTITUTE*TEAM HOTT SAWCE*THE YOUTH CONFERENCEAll of the above motivational programs are in the Atlanta, Georgia area.https://linktr.ee/Sfdreamsbig?utm_source=linktree_profile_shareShaun is the author of the book: "Persevere Overcome Win: SuperPOWers That Will Give Your Child The EDGE In Life"   "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

Donna Burke explains that her mum gave birth to seven children of which there are two sets of  twins. Donna is the first born twin to a boy and the second set of twins was also boy/girl. She basically in the middle of the seven children.To add to Donna's many talents, she is also the long time English announcer on the Shinkansen bullet train, from Tokyo to Osaka.  She refers to herself as an entrepreneur, which she says she inherited from her dad. In addition to lending her voice to many genres, she also has a business called "Royal Flush" Japan Toilet Sound Maker.  There's a Japanese cultural love affair with sound effects that mask any noises one may make while busy on the toilet!The video games that she's featured on, including  her singing songs and character roles in video games are  Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill 2 and 3.My guest's mum had a very rough childhood. Marg's mother, Donna's maternal grandmother, was an alcoholic. Her second husband was a pedophile. Marg and her older sister were in and out of orphanages, treated horribly while they were there. So the two sisters figured out that they could pretend that their life was better than it actually was. The two sisters felt so much shame about their broken family, parent's divorced, etc so they decided it was a good idea to dream up a different past. This was a coping mechanism which seemed to help. When Marg was 14-15 years old, her biological father eventually let Marg live with him once he saw the horrific conditions she had been living in.  Donna loved to sing and really tried very hard to get every opportunity to perform when she was a teen. Unfortunately her mom, busy with all the kids, didn't really realize how passionate Donna was and how committed she was to fulfilling her dreams of being a performer. Come 1996, Donna realized it was time to get away from Australia and ventured on to live in Japan. She is still there today with a budding career -using her voice for singing monster hits from legendary video games  and doing voice overs, including the job as the english announcer on  one of Japan's bullet trains.Marg has been to Tokyo to visit her daughter and loves spending time in Tokyo. Marg also was thrown into the spotlight because of the notoriety of her daughter's voice as the announcer on the Shinkansen bullet train. The video interview went viral  and that was Marg's first experience with real fame.Though Donna's mom had a dark childhood for many, many years, she still instilled in her children that it okay and important                 "to be kind to yourself and it's okay to love yourself "Donna Burke has a wonderful sense of humor, though at times her childhood may have been a bit chaotic, her sense of humor staid intact. I so enjoyed speaking with her about her mom Marg.   One of Marg's favorite songs  that Donna sings is "Sins of the Father.""Sins of the Father" is a song from the game Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. It was first featured in the E3 2013 trailer.The lyrics were written by Ludvig Forssell, performed by Donna Burke and composed by Akihiro Honda.Donna also sings:"Metal Gear V:The Phantom Painhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNvD-oNNQso#:~:text=Metal%20Gear%20V%3A%20The%20Phantom,the%20Father%20%2D%20Donna%20Burke%20%2D%20YouTube Donna Burke, the voice of Angela in "Silent Hill 2" wrote a song about her character.

I  wanted to give you an update on Lorraine's mom, since our original publication of the episode was in November, 2021.  Lorraine's mom, Angelina, passed away in March 2023, at 100 years old. And Lorraine let me know that it was taking some time to adjust to not having her mom with her by her side. Lorraine  took care of her mother for many, many years.I'm also attaching a copy of Lorraine's NY Times "Tiny Love Story," writing submission which was published in   September 2021.NY TIMES "TINY LOVE STORY" : 9.19.21                "Our First Days"In some pre-fall cleaning, I waded through more than 2,500 family photos. Only one made me cry. It wasn't the image of me in my parochial school jumper but my mother's note on the back of that picture: “Oct. 1964. Lorraine first grade. My first day of work.” She became a single mother when I was 2. After years out of the work force, she returned as a telephone company operator. Many of the employees were younger. My mother must have been scared. But she did it for us, and in 1984, she retired as an executive at the same company. — Lorraine Duffy Merkl Once Lorraine and I agreed on a date and time to record the interview, I started doing more research on her background and experience.  On her website, http://lorraineduffymerkl.com/, I found one of her demo reels from way back when she was writing and producing promos for a number of different tv networks. As I'm listening to one of her promo reels, I thought I heard something that sounded vaguely familiar.  On her promo reel for Lifetime Television  was my voice over  featured on at least 3 of her promos.  It turns out we had worked together back in the early to mid to late 90's and neither of us recalled meeting, let alone working together.  I was in the recording booth and she in the master control room. We were both in awe and thanking the universe for bringing us back together. This time I was interviewing Lorraine and asking her the questions.Now on to the the real story of Lorraine and her mother Angelina. Angelina raised her only daughter, Lorraine, as a single mom after her husband left when Lorraine was only two years old. Yes, she had the help of her mother, Lorraine's grandmother, but it wasn't easy.  We all know that it's tough being a single parent.  But after seven years of being out of the work force, scared and nervous, mom went back to work taking an entry level position as an operator at a phone company at the age of 42.  Angelina had never gone to college yet retired decades later as an executive from that same company."My mom was a member of the Greatest Generation, she experienced the  Depression and poverty, went back to work though frightened and did all of this so my life would be easier," says Merkl. "Together we can fight over anything or standup to anyone," reflects Lorraine. In time, Angelina would reveal things to her daughter saying "I was holding on by a thread."  In order for Angelina to keep things organized at home,  she felt that she had to be tough and discipline her daughter.  Lorraine feels that her mom was "operating off of fear all the time." Again, it's understandable when your husband walks away and leaves you to raise your daughter .Lorraine so admires her mother, "being apart brought us closer together," reflects Merkl. At 24 years old, after having moved out  on her own, she and her mother became friends and so enjoyed each other's company. "She was a giver, not a taker, helpful and kind.At the time of this interview, Angelina is living with and being cared for by her daughter. She is 98 years old and suffering from dementia.  My guest has so many wonderful memories of her mother, including  advice for her to "stick up for yourself," "mom  always wanted me to be somebody who could stick up for themselves," says Lorraine.Don't let anyone fool you. Angelina is one of 13 children of an Italian family and raised  in the Bronx, NY. She was very smart as well as being very street smart.   "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

Dr. Brenna Brown has been working with and running laboratories for a decade. While working as a business development rep for an environmental lab, she would often get asked the same question repeatedly. "They'd ask, can you test my animal samples? And I couldn't because I was environmental. So, that was me learning about this animal health diagnostic laboratory shortage."  Seeing how farmers were grappling with the scarcity of rapid animal testing diagnostics and local veterinarians, Dr. Brown and friends Dr. Adina Bujold and Bridget Brown created Cohlab, focusing on improving animal health testing for farmers, producers, and ranchers.  Cohlab's goal is to bridge the gap between traditional lab testing and real-time, on-site diagnostics for animal health. Bujold, a pathobiologist and animal microbiology expert, developed Potentio, a device that makes it easy for farmers to test the health of their herds or flocks in real time.

Speaking with Stephen was just such a delight. He's easy going, insightful, entertaining and talented.  He clearly loves his kraft. He's an accomplished                                                                                                                              pianist, drummer, guitarist and vocalist. My guest studied jazz, pop and classical music genres. When Stephen was a young boy, he saw the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show, and that was the beginning ofhis musical adventures. He couldn't get enough.  He not only credits his mother for guiding him on his musical journey, but it was also his grandmother's music box that intrigued him to no end, then and still today.And here he is today, over 60 years  working in the music industry. He's recorded eleven albums and his most recent, release in 2023 titled, "Songs, Dreams, Circumstance."There's so much more to  Stephen's story. I hope you enjoy getting to know Stephen's mom and all that she instilled in her son, including being aware and caring for others. She's also remembered for using the phrase, "play the ball where it lands," and "make a plan and work a plan." Both of these expressions helped Stephen stay the course when perhaps his Tourette Syndrome got in his way.An absolute pleasure spending time getting to know Stephen and he says he's "a dedicated Neurodiversity advocate." website for Tourette:https://tourette.org/resource/understanding-coprolalia/ DictionaryDefinitions from Oxford Languages · Learn morecop·ro·la·li·a/ˌkäprəˈlālēə/nounPSYCHIATRYthe involuntary and repetitive use of obscene language, as a symptom of mental illness or organic brain disease.  TOURETTE SYNDROME-MAYO CLINIC:https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/tourette-syndrome/symptoms-causes/syc-20350465NOURON UP WEBSITE:https://neuronup.us/cognitive-stimulation-news/neurodevelopmental-disorders/tourette-syndrome/12-ways-to-support-your-friend-with-tourettes/  NIH-NATIONAL INSTITUE OF NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS & STROKEhttps://www.ninds.nih.gov/health-information/disorders/tourette-syndrome FORM NIH WEBSITE:What is Tourette syndrome?Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neurological disorder that may cause sudden unwanted and uncontrolled rapid and repeated movements or vocal sounds called tics. TS is one of a group of disorders of the developing nervous system called tic disorders.The motor (involving body movement) or vocal (involving sounds you make) tics of TS come and go over time, varying in type, frequency, location, and severity. If you have tics, you cannot stop your body from having them. The first symptoms usually occur between the ages of 5 and 10 years, generally in the head and neck area. These may progress to include the muscles in your torso, arms, and legs. Motor tics generally occur before the development of vocal tics. Tourette syndrome affects more boys than girls. Most people with TS experience their worst tic symptoms in their early teens, but tics typically lessen and become controlled by the late teens to early 20s. For some people, TS can be a chronic condition with symptoms that last into adulthood. In some cases, tics may worsen in adulthood. TS is not a degenerative condition (one that continues to get worse) and individuals with TS have a normal life expectancy.RALPH & BUDDY BOND: YOUTUBE:https://www.google.com/search?q=RALPH+BOND+ORGANIST+PHILIDELOHIA%2C+PA&oq=RALPH+BOND+ORGANIST+PHILIDELOHIA%2C+PA&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIJCAEQIRgKGKABMgkIAhAhGAoYoAEyCQgDECEYChigATIJCAQQIRgKGKABMgcIBRAhGI8CMgcIBhAhGI8C0gEJMTU3NzJqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:564aef9c,vid:lBSt-QxOat8,st:0 LARRY FERRARI-ORGANISThttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrqSnGuiHVA MONK THOMAS MERTON:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Merton STEPHEN DiJOSEPH'S WEBSITE: https://www.stephendijoseph.com/INSTAGRAM: www.instagram.com/stephendijosephFACEBOOK:www.facebook.com/dijosephmusicandfilm  "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

It was an absolute pleasure to have this open conversation with Anthony about where his journey started as a young boy full of sadness, frustration resentment and despair and the miraculous transformation he has made as a young man.  He had to learn some really tough lessons but to his credit, he feels that he had to go through everything that  he did to become the person that he is today. Sometimes life has an unexpected way of teaching us lessons and the life of Anthony McDuffie Jr, perhaps took him on a more  circuitous and difficult route to finding his true self.At a young age, he experienced the loss of a loved one and was subject to inner city crime and violence.  He went looking for support in the wrong places and eventually got mixed up in crime which led to incarceration. Yet what followed, through studying, hard work and spirituality, was redemption, resilience and forgiveness.  After 15 years behind bars, he was released a new man.While in prison, I know there were tough years for Anthony, wondering "why me" or all the "what -ifs" or "wrong place, wrong time," scenarios OR maybe "I should have listened to my mother" conversations he had with himself.Today Anthony has written two books, "Grit, Grind & Glory" and "My Life In Poetry."  He's written about lessons learned, finding a mentor, igniting the seed of change as well as how to encourage and inspire youth to succeed.  He's a motivational speaker and certified  mental health First Aider.  HIs transformative journey includes graduating form "Give a Beat's"-"On A New Track"             Re-entry Mentoring Program in 2021, where he became a performing artist.Shottie, Anthony's mom, wrote to her son regularly while he was incarcerated. While incarcerated, Anthony desperately longed to see his mother, hold his mother and talk to his mother.  Where do you think  he went directly upon release?Thank you  again Anthony. There are many unfortunate kids out there that now will benefit from your experience and your example. WEBSITE: https://www.gritgrindandglory.com/INSTAGRAM:https://www.instagram.com/gritgrind_glory/FACEBOOK: ANTHONY MARSHAWN McDUFFIE JR:https://www.facebook.com/Bomani05  "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

"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."Check out Moksha's Sovereign Eats website at 'sovereigneats.com.'  "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

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.Upcoming podcast-In Living ColorsBusinesses: R & K Wealth Development & Atlanta Mobile Detailing ProsShoutout Atlanta  December 2021https://shoutoutatlanta.com/meet-kevin-jerome-kevin-jerome-ceo/Shoutour Atlanta October 2021https://shoutoutatlanta.com/meet-kevin-jerome-world-travel-serial-entrepreneur/ "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

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.Website: https://www.themotivationspeaker.com/david-thomasWebsite: https://www.creatingpresentationrockstars.com/ppl-homepage "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

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. Sean Kelly Social Media:EMAIL:DoTheBigDream@gmail.comMy social media links & Websiteswww.DoTheBigDream.comwww.TheCharityAuctioneer.comFacebook.com/groups/dothebigdream/Twitter @SeanKellyComedyFacebook.comhttps://www.facebook.com/SeanKellyComedianInstagram@Auctioneer_Sean_Kelly LinkedInwww.linkedin./in/thecharityauctioneer "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

"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."https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s490W_1u5Vchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xz_SlIJ-Qo8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4Y7EbXocJohttps://www.championscrew.com/TANOURY, NAUTS, McKINNEY & DWAIHY, PLLC: WEBSITE-https://tnmdlaw.com/*INSTAGRAM:GINA MUNDYFB: GINA MUNDY, AUTHOR LINKEDIN: GINA MUNDY "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

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.  WEBSITE:lyvitabrooks.comTHE ME PROJECT: https://lyvitabrooks.com/DisplayMe/new-the-me-projecthttps://lyvitabrooks.com/press WEBSITE: lyvitabrooks.com*Host of Hanging Out With Jesus" Podcast• Lyvita's Books: “Nuggets for Thought -A Mother and Daughter's Collection of Poems, Reflections and Flash Fiction About the Life They See”--- result of a young daughter keeping her promise to someday publish her mother's writings.

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.website:https://www.arussellandrews.com/IMDb:https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0028551/INSTAGRAM:https://www.instagram.com/a.russellandrews/?hl=enFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/stagewalkersStagewalker Productions:http://www.stagewalkersproductions.com/StageWalkerGrouphomepage.htmFor more information regarding Russell Andrews, please contact:La'Chris Robinson JordanPublicist & Brand Specialisthttps://www.lachrisjordan.com/bio(213) 321-3001Elevating the brands of Emmy® and Academy Award®-Winning creatives with dynamic storytelling.➤ Connect:LinkedIn➤ Website:Latest Projects  "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

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.     "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

 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."THE CRADLE-   Adoption agency in Evanston, Illinois                                                                                                                                                                      https://cradle.org/BIO Her main passion is supporting othersin their evolutionary journey withsustainable, deep, whole Self-transformationand Intuitive becoming.intuitive | astrologer | medium | teacher | h.h.p. | yogi | writer                                                                                                                                                     santa fe, new mexicoMystic, Psychic Medium or Intuitive Holistic HealerSITEwww.jeanninekim.com LINKEDIN:themystic.jeanninekimFACEBOOK:THEMYSTIC.JEANNINEKIMhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090257629290 YOUTUBE: Jeannine Kimhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7RJ5S18kj_e4XQhKuGXFSQ SPOTIFY:https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jeannine-kim✨www.jeanninekim.com "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

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. Facebook: James AnthonyInstagram: #frjimworthLinkedIn: James Anthony   "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives.

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.

I always think it's a good idea to stop what we're doing and take a look back from time to time and see if maybe we missed something.   You never know,  you may walk away with a whole new perspective.   My first guest has a bit of a puzzle to try and solve regarding her mom.  Feature film Production Supervisor, Peggy Robinson's mom was a New York City foundling but Peg didn't find out till much later in life. So, do you try and piece things together or do you 'pull yourself up by your bootstraps' and move on? Very wise words that sure came in handy later on. Having your Doctoral degree and then writing a book about Aliens, what?  It's a journey that my next guest, Dr. Bridget Brown shares with us. Her mom never attended college but her daughter sure did -receiving her doctorate in American Studies.  "Loved spending time with her children",  her mother's favorite thing to do and such an important one at that.

There is a common thread in all of the Storytelling Playlist episodes in this series, and that is that storytelling creates connection. And this episode with guest Bridget Brown helps make it even clearer. Bridget talks about the how the power of story manifests when you tell on yourself. Telling on yourself does a number of things: it can help others identify with you and help place them closer to the story. It can break barriers for learners that might ordinarily feel isolated. And it creates connections when you're sharing a personal story; people like being in on the story, especially if the way you're communicating it is authentic. And once you've set the stage to make that connection, you'll find success ahead. Take a listen to Bridget Brown, how she finds the stories that help grow organizations, and "tells" them to make a positive impact.

This guy Christy Brown is the physical manifestation of “Never Stop.” I found out about Christy Brown from an assignment I had to do for a Psychology class at Montgomery County Community College. From then on I’ve been amazed by this man. He was born with Cerebral Palsy resulting in him only able to use his left foot. This troubled him heavily as one could only imagine. But this did not kill his spirit. He still found ways to express himself by becoming a writer. This far from reading his autobiography I’ve learned the importance of having a support system. This man’s mother, Bridget Brown, is undoubtably a world class mother. She was more than a mother. This man family supported him and loved him and I believe that made a big difference in Browns life. I’ve also learned the built in need humans have to channel their energy towards something. Brown recounts how he felt like a prisoner in his own body, it was writing that gave him the opportunity to express himself full heartedly. Lastly I’ve also learn to cherish my independence! Just being a able to get up and go where I want is a gift. It is a gift that unfortunately some are not granted. Brown was bound to his wheel chair and had to be fed and washed. Be able bodied permits independence and that is a blessing.
