Ever tried picking out a book for a child to read? Marilyn and Rhea can confirm: it's not easy, nor is it easy to get the child to actually read the book and enjoy it. In this episode, Marilyn and Rhea sit down with the founder of Oh The Books Deema Al Alami to understand how we can get children to love reading outside the classroom. They share tips for picking out new books and rotating the books on your child's bookshelf, as well as recommend bookstores for caregivers to check out in Dubai. Finally, Deema talks about her new book, “48 Stories of Exile from Palestine,” and how children can fall in love with Palestine and its culture through reading. Deema Al Alami is a Dubai-based educator and author. Her career started over 15 years ago as a teacher, before shifting her focus to working on education-focused capacity building programs in both the private and public sector across the region. She's the co-founder of Al Alami Book Club and the founder of Oh the Books, an Instagram account where she recommends the best children's books and offers caregivers the best literacy tips and tricks to nurture lifelong readers. She also launched “From Mother to Author,” a coaching program empowering parents and caregivers to author their own children's books that celebrate Arab culture and values. Deema is a renowned author, having co-written the children's book “Min Balad Esmo Falastin” (“From A Country Called Palestine”) and the new book, “48 Stories of Exile from Palestine,” out later this year.Deema's recommendations for Dubai bookstores:The Old LibraryKinokuniyaMagrudyBookwormBook Hero Deema's author recommendations:Mo WillemsJulia DonaldsonRod CampbellHervé TulletYou can follow Deema and her work on Instagram:Deema's Account (@deema_al_alami)Oh The Books (@oh.thebooks)From Mother to Author (@mother_to_author)Who Run the World is a production of Reyzin Media.

Note to Parents: This episode contains graphic descriptions of the procedures and medical facts concerning abortion. We strongly advise using discretion in sharing this with young children. For decades, the abortion debate has been a flashpoint of passion and division in our society -  precisely because it is so much more than words and arguments. It strikes at the very heart of what it means to build a family. Here at The Family Business with The Alessis, we believe strongly in empowering families with the truth so they can build a generational legacy, so we have prepared a 2-part series on this topic to give you the best foundation and information as things stand now, especially after the overturning of Roe. V. Wade in 2022. To help navigate this complex topic, we are blessed to welcome a family friend and expert on the laws, history and ideological concepts around the abortion industry - Cristina M. Squiers.  Cristina has a long, deep friendship with the Alessi family, and has risen to the top of her field as a ligitator and counsel in cases involving pro-life causes and the abortion industry. Today, she sits down with several of the young ladies in the Alessi family to dig deeper into how this issue affects women and families beyond the soundbites and political chatter. Cristina Squiers graduated from Princeton University and was a recipient of the University's ReachOut Fellowship.  During her fellowship year, Cristina worked at the nation's largest adoption agency and started a mentoring program for youth leaving foster care.  She received her J.D. from Southern Methodist University Dedman School of Law where she served as Editor-in-Chief of the SMU Law Review and interned for Catharina Haynes of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. She now practices law in Dallas, TX and is married to her husband Dr. Jack Squiers. Together they have 3 children and are expecting their fourth. . If this helped you, you should also listen to: From Mother to Daughter: Honest Questions about Marriage, Motherhood and Changing Seasons | S3 E17Twin Talk: Why Wise Women Need To Share Their Stories w/ Mary Alessi and Martha Munizzi | S5 E19 JOIN THE FAMILY BUSINESS!

Anger still percolates through the community around Bridgewater, fifteen years after the murder of 12-year-old Karissa Boudreau. Sherri Aikenhead was working in the Nova Scotia Department of Justice when Penny Boudreau pleaded guilty to the second-degree murder of her daughter. She vowed to someday tell that story and she has in her new true crime book called Mommy Don't: From Mother to Murderer / The True Story of Penny and Karissa Boudreau. This week marks the fifteenth anniversary of the charge being laid. It also gives Penny the opportunity to apply for early parole under the so-called Faint Hope Clause. That is a since released statutory provision that allowed prisoners who have been sentenced to life imprisonment with a parole eligibility period of greater than 15 years to apply for early parole once they have served 15 years. Aikenhead reflects on the writing of the book, the chance for parole and her thoughts on the impacts felt on the community a decade and a half later.

Can simply telling your story impact and influence the world? And how do women who know the Truth speak up, in a world that even questions the definition of a woman and the sanctity of life? These are questions that can only be answered by people with Godly wisdom and sound judgment - and in this case, by wise women who have seen it all and have a story to tell. In this special episode, host Mary Alessi is joined by her twin sister, award-winning songwriter, pastor and author Martha Munizzi, as they share their authentic stories about parenting, culture, faith and ministry. You'll discover why you must hold fast to the principles that stand the test of time - even in painful and tough conversations regarding gender, life in the womb, and embracing the season of life you are in.  Martha Munizzi is a Grammy nominated, Dove and Stellar Award-winning singer-songwriter, pastor, and recording artist. Her passion is to help build the church worldwide, see people reach their full potential, and develop and strengthen leaders. Martha, along with her husband, Dan and their three children, reside in Orlando, Florida, and are the founders and co-pastors of EpicLife Church.  She recently released her new book, Because of Who You Are: The Stories Behind My Music which tells the never-before-shared inspirations behind some of her most beloved worship songs.  Tap here to purchase a copy of "Because of Who You Are: The Stories Behind My Music"If you liked this episode, you'll really enjoy: From Mother to Daughter: Honest Questions about Marriage, Motherhood and Changing Seasons | S3 E17Mom Friends: How Strong Friendships Build Strong Families | S3 E16Rainbows and Recovery: Can Strong Women Help Each Other Heal After Tragedy Strikes? | S5 E9Steve Alessi's powerful new book "FORTY-TWO" is Now Available!

Also, interviews with Caleb. “Caleb Ryan Martin has, according to one reviewer, ‘a lonesome voice and rhythm that can at times invoke a lonesome ramblin' man sound, a voice that will haunt you with some type of mysterious mountain holler sound, like a banshee singing in the nether woods.' Caleb Ryan Martin, an acoustic bluegrass, folk and roots musician hailing from the hills of Fayetteville, AR. Looking like a man from leaner and meaner times, Caleb has traveled and played music all across the Midwest and Gulf Coast region, singing with expressive vocals, playing guitar, and picking the banjo providing people with melodic medicine. Caleb currently averages between 150 - 200 shows a year, with no sign of slowing down.” https://www.reverbnation.com/calebryanmartin1 In this week's “From the Vault” segment, musician, educator, and country music legacy Mark Jones offers a 1975 archival recording of Ozark original Dave Leatherman performing the Louvin Brothers classic “From Mother's Arms to Korea,” from the Ozark Folk Center State Park archives.

Cheers to this episode of Happy Hour! Happy Mother’s Day! I lived in this fantasy world that after giving birth, I would look as good as Meghan Markle. That didn’t happen. We give a BIG shoutout Amy Schumer for keeping it real! Thanks, girl. I like to call this time of year the flower season. From Mother’s Day to Teacher Appreciation to Weddings finding the perfect flowers is priceless, mainly personally grown. But is it ever okay to cut flowers from your neighbor's yard? And the pressure of social media is so real; families are faking it.

Fashioning Fun for Austin’s Pediatric Patients Aysa Province has a longstanding love for fashion, event planning and giving back to those in need. And yet she confessed to wondering how her three passions would one day fit together. Then, the vision for “Beautifully Loved” firmly took hold of her heart. It started with the idea of a fashion show, to support and spotlight young patients of the Blood and Cancer Center at Dell Children’s Hospital. And with one night’s worth of runway sashay, Province caught a glimpse of her life’s calling. “I played with the idea for months,” she said. “I had questions of — is this enough and will this actually make a difference? Finally I just took the leap of faith and everything kind of fell into place. In my head I just thought I’d rather try and know than always wonder what if.” The impact that Beautifully Loved has made in a short time, is beyond measure. From Mother’s and Father’s Day pamper events to holiday initiatives and fundraisers like the Fashion Show, Province and Beautifully Loved are showing the community that there is a lot of power in a little lipstick. In this episode of Voices of Impact, Aysa and I discuss how to be a voice of love and rest for children and families in need. We talk about unwavering conviction, rallying support for a grass-roots charity and learning to be ‘enough.’ And Aysa shares the important lesson of how to walk into fear and come out a stronger leader, on the other side.
