MEET ALLIA LANIUS:Aalia Lanius is the Founder and President of Unsugarcoated Media, a 501(c)(3) media organization. Dedicated to helping survivors of trauma lead mentally healthier lives, Aalia’s focus is creating media and events that empower, educate, heal, and inspire others the way it has for her.  A multiple award-winning American novelist, social entrepreneur, and advocate with over 20 years of sharing her personal experiences with audiences of all age groups and diverse backgrounds. Executive Producer and host of the award-nominated seasonal podcast show, “Unsugarcoated with Aalia”; a visual and audio experience that features conversations intended to bring value and amplify voices that create more empathy and understanding of one another. Having been homeless and abandoned by her parents at 14 years old, it comes as a surprise to most that Aalia launched her first company by 25 years old, built a million-dollar generating business before graduating university with Honors, obtaining a BA in International Business, Managerial Leadership and Entrepreneurship, followed by attending Concord Law School. During that time, she also experienced personal and health challenges such as battling cancer three times, an unhealthy marriage that eventually ended but not before enduring domestic violence and emotional abuse. As a novelist, she launched her debut novel, "Tough Love", in 2018, beginning a journey of writing fiction that strikes at social issues. With a more proficient storytelling skill and a more tempted wish to empower the under-represented groups in society, Aalia released "Jugend" in 2019 to directly challenge hateful rhetoric. "Jugend", has been named the Top Multicultural Fiction Novel of 2019 by Dan Poytner’s Global EBook Awards, Book Excellence Award Winner for Multicultural Fiction, and awarded the 2019 Bronze Medal in the Readers’ Favorite Fiction-Cultural category. 2020 Book Excellence Award Winner for Multicultural Fiction. In 2019, she produced and spearheaded EmpowerCon, an inaugural 1-day empowerment event, at the Los Angeles Convention Center for survivors of trauma with a focus on connection, healing, and growth. She continues to look for opportunities to support and collaborate with other like-minded organizations and individuals. Aalia resides in Los Angeles with her husband, Hollywood Film Attorney and Executive Producer, Joseph Lanius, and is the mother of four, and grandmother—but Aalia is definitely NOT your average grandma!

Join host Carla Marie Manly, PhD (author of Joy From Fear and Aging Joyfully) and Richard Hill for a conversation about Richard's book Finding Family. https://www.familius.com/book/finding-family/ ABOUT THE BOOK: Finding Family: My Search for Roots and the Secrets in My DNA is the highly suspenseful account of an adoptee trying to reclaim the biological family denied him by sealed birth records. This fascinating quest, including the author's landmark use of DNA testing, takes readers on an exhilarating roller-coaster ride and concludes with a twist that rivals anything Hollywood has to offer. In the vein of a classic mystery, Hill gathers the seemingly scant evidence surrounding the circumstances of his birth. As his resolve shores up, the author also avails of new friends, genealogists, the Internet, and the latest DNA tests in the new field of genetic genealogy. As he closes in on the truth of his ancestry, he is able to construct a living, breathing portrait of the young woman who was faced with the decision to forsake her rights to her child, and ultimately the man whose identity had remained hidden for decades. Finding Family offers guidance, insight, and motivation for anyone engaged in a similar mission, from ways to obtain information to the many networks that can facilitate adoption searches. The book includes a detailed guide to DNA and genetic genealogy and how they can produce irrefutable results in determining genetic connections and help adoptees bypass sealed records and similar stumbling blocks ABOUT RICHARD: At 18 years old, Richard Hill accidentally discovered a deeply hidden family secret: he was adopted. Assuming he would never know any details, he was startled to learn many years later that he had a brother out there somewhere. What then began as a search for his mother and brother turned into a decades long search for the identity of his biological father. Thwarted for years by sealed records, lies, and cover-ups, Richard eventually turned to a series of new DNA tests designed for genealogists. His groundbreaking use of this new science to uncover the name of his birth father was reported on the front page of The Wall Street Journal. Subsequently, newer DNA tests would lead him to an even more startling conclusion. Richard has made it his personal mission to share what he learns with other adoptees and genealogists. He does that through his web site, DNA-Testing-Adviser.com, social media, presentations, and now his books. His memoir, Finding Family: My Search for Roots and the Secrets in My DNA, was named a Finalist in the Next Generation Indie Book Awards. The electronic version was awarded a gold medal in the Global Ebook Awards. His "Guide to DNA Testing" eBook provides an easy-to-understand overview of genetic genealogy. Readers quickly learn how to identify ancestors, confirm relationships, and measure their ethnic ancestry.

In the first episode after the holiday break, Jessica introduces Aalia Lanius to the LTN podcast community!

For over 20 years, she has been sharing her personal experiences with audiences of all age groups and diverse backgrounds, across the globe, sharing tragedies and triumphs, both positive and negative, allowing others to realize that there is always hope in the dark. Lanius’ most recent literary work, a historical fiction novel, Jugend, which released in March 2019, has been awarded the 2019 Bronze Medal in the Readers’ Favorite Fiction-Cultural category and named the Top Multicultural Fiction Novel of 2019 by the Global EBook Awards. In her present stage of life, she is unapologetically interested in living life on her terms. People are often impressed with her energy, optimism and determination to defy the odds as a survivor of cancer, currently living life with two autoimmune diseases and a recent diagnosis of fibromyalgia. Here to shatter stereotypes, she warns people to not “judge this book by its cover”. As founder of Unsugarcoated Media, a 501(c)(3) organization, she spearheads EmpowerCon, an inaugural empowerment event to bring value to communities around the world. Aalia continues writing books, as well as produces and hosts the podcast "Unsugarcoated with Aalia and Alex".
