Debbie Gilbert chats with The Graphic Designer Who Won a Carer Award with Marie Louise O'Neill, Canva expert and graphic designer. In this episode, Marie Louise talks about how small business owners can show up more professionally online without needing to be a design expert.

Consequently, she shares how she went self-employed ten years ago after struggling to find flexible working options to be around for her young child. Listen to discover the biggest design mistakes people make, and how to overcome them. Plus Marie Louise's practical tips for keeping your brand consistent across everything you put out. There's also an honest conversation about balancing business with real life, including caring for a toddler, a husband with rheumatoid arthritis, and more recently her dad recovering from a broken hip. As always, we also talk about her award wins, including a very touching Digital Women Carer Award.

Kathryn was born in the Himalayas. However, both her parents were English and had the same desire of "going out to India, spreading the Gospel message and serving the poor," explains my guest. Living in Vienna as a young girl, Kathryn remembers her parents taking in refugees who were seeking political asylum and it was normal to have refugees sleeping on their floor regularly. These memories had a profound effect on Kathryn and she was certain that this is how her interests in helping the less fortunate  came to be.  Kathryn shares that her mother was not warm and fuzzy but she was from the generation of tough and strong women. Kathryn always felt very loved. Ruby was a teacher and taught her daughter and other children from the Embassy. Ruby was determined that Kathryn would not be spoiled. Kathryn was soon sent to boarding school because her parents were working and traveling regularly. "A little pencil in God's hand" is how Mother Teresa would refer to herself. She never wanted credit  or accolades for her work. "She could be a tough cookie," Spink reflects however, "she was difficult to deal with sometimes, because God was so definitely on her side and that could make things tough. Mother Teresa was so determined, nothing could get in her way." "Poverty saddened Mother Teresa the most according to Kathryn,  "I don't think it angered her not in relation to God. Waste most likely angered her the most but never with God." Mother Teresa was always seeing the presence of God in the poor and it helped her persevere.  "Tolerance was deeply ingrained in Mother Theresa" explains Ms. Spink. "Mother Teresa believed that God was at work in every soul, so it wasn't up to her to try and convince others of the 'correct/best religion." My guest remarks "Mother Teresa used to say "come to Calcutta and I'll put you to work".  This is what this demure but mighty  woman believed with her whole body, mind and spirit. Kathryn even shared stories of the similarities between Mother Teresa, whose birth name was Agnes, and her mother Drana. "The family that prays together, stays together" was one of Drana's favorite expressions according to Spink. Caring for the sick was a common thread for the two woman.  "It's not always about the physical suffering, but the whole process of being abandoned by people" was one of the toughest things for Mother Teresa to comes to terms with, comments Spink. Mother Teresa founded the order, "The Missionaries of Charities." She wanted to give shelter to  abandoned babies and to help the poorest of the poor. In 1979 she received the Nobel Peace Prize and after her death was canonized as Saint Teresa.  I could have listened for hours to my guest share her stories of all of these selfless women. Mother Teresa was known as 'Mother' because when a nun/sister is appointed to a superior position within  the church, they are known as 'Mother.' INFORMATION: Kathryn Spink is the author of several books on the work of Mother Teresa and her coworkers, as well as other inspiring contemporary figures, including Brother Roger of Taize, Beede Griffiths, Dominique LaPierre, Prince Charles' and Lady Diana Spencer and more.  My guest is also the chronicler of the “South African Women's Human Rights Organization.”  https://www.kathrynspink.com/ https://www.harpercollins.com/blogs/authors/kathryn-spink-20167212026170   "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Christen Horne refers to herself as a nerd, geek and gamer. She's a big fan of reading and loves Star Wars. As an accomplished singer, she received her Masters in Opera Performance. In addition to the entire family being singers and musicians, archery became a big part of their lives as well.  When Karla, Christen's mother, was in high school she became the California State Champion Archer and the family still enjoys the sport today.  Having a mom that worked wasn't that unusual for Christen. Her mom had been a paralegal for years after completing her associates degree.  As the three children were growing up, Karla was  leading worship at the local church.  They spent a lot of time at the church. But my guest says she enjoyed it because they were always singing. Ms. Horne fondly remembers her mom embracing whatever fun activities the kids would be involved in, including  going to water parks and going down the water slides together, playing board games and spending quality time involved with the family. Years ago, Christen was actively involved in her community theatre programs.  She fondly retells the story of  the production of  "Fiddler On The Roof," when her mom and aunt  were  "volun-told' that they  had to play village fathers.  There were no other boys/male actors to play the part.  They still laugh about it today. Christen considered her mother as being firm yet compassionate when it came to disciplining the three kids.  Homework definitely took the priority especially over video games. Homework wasn't done, no one got  to play. Christen says  "mom was always really good about helping us find the balance in things. Making sure we had time to play  and making sure we got our homework done."   It wasn't until Christen started to realize  that she often hid her emotions, that she started to recall other instances from her childhood that were clearly  unhappy. She had suffered from depression at a young age that was left undiagnosed. She felt that her mother was embarrassed when Christen showed her true emotions. Horne shared with me that "through my mental health journey, I've gotten more comfortable being more myself around my mom."  Often feeling "this is my fault," Christen often blamed herself and felt that if her mother rejected her, it would be devastating.  It's scary to be a young child and not understand complicated emotional situation. Working with coaches on a regular basis has helped Christen tremendously. "You pick one hurt, then move on to another," reflects Horne. Through working with her coaches she says her relationship with her mom is so much better and she's very grateful for all the support. Christen is now working on her fantasy book which features her main character 'Alkara' who's named after mother and who also is an archer.

 Erik has always loved music, performing, dance and laughter. He didn't like school. Erik's mother, Gerri, was very clear from the beginning  on how exactly he was to get through high school. As an english teacher, she knew the benefits of a great education and wasn't about to let him slip through her fingers. Nor was she going to take any part in his decision to not get out of bed, which meant, she wasn't going to be responsible for him not graduating. She was very specific when she said she wouldn't be attending any parent teacher conferences or discussions when Erik had issues at school. It was his responsibility. If he had to repeat a grade, "he'd have no one to blame but himself." That said, Erik and his mother were extremely close. She was a devoted  and committed mother.  She found the joy and humor if life. Having a role model like his mom has helped him raising his two daughters.  Erik says one important lesson he learned from his mom is  "she was present. She was not 'unavailable' when she was physically present." With all the distractions that we have in life now, this one memory of his mother really helps him with his girls. They are his priority when they're together. Looking back, Erik recalls how his parents fostered self reliance and individuality. His mother taught english at night to help others who wanted to empower themselves.   She often worked with bartenders, cashiers and workers who hoped to get a business degree and  change their lives.

For most creatives, the voice in their head guiding their hesitations, fears, and decisions has actually been created by a 9-5 job.That's how they end up saying "I want a successful design business" for 5 years with little to no progress... because every decision is still being filtered through fear, safety, approval, and the need for a guaranteed outcome.At some point, the only way things change is by being willing to bet on yourself, take calculated risks, and slowly let go of the safety net that's been keeping you mentally stuck in the same place. In this episode, I dive into the six most common ways 9-5 jobs create limiting beliefs in your mind that hold you back from pursuing your goals.Follow FrancescaFollow PriscillaFREE Six Figure Designer Community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join Social Butterfly Club (Marketing Membership For Designers)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Brief Collective Design Biz Academy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Unlock Secret Podcast Episodes⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Share Your Unapologetic Opinion⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Podcast Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠

Pat, my guest's mom, grew up in Washington state. Because her parents had divorced wen Pat was a little girl, Pat spent the school year with her mother on the coast of Washington and summers with her father in the eastern part of the state. Pat learned independence starting at the early age of five years old as her parents  put her on a train by herself, back and forth across the state.  This part of Shannon's journey begins with her mom's Sock Monkey and it's opened up a world of learning and inspiration. Incase you're not familiar with what a sock monkey is, it's a  toy for young and old.  Stuffed Sock Monkeys were very popular in the 1930 and 40's, especially during The Great Depression to help uplift the spirits of children and adults. After Shannon's mother died, she came across a Stuffed Sock Monkey in her mother's possessions. She took it home with her and it's created a life of its own, a significance that Shannon is still surprised by today. In regard to her mother Shannon says "she was a teacher by nature and a teacher by trade. In fact, Pat was a  6th grade teacher for a while in addition to a Special Education teacher. Everything was a teaching /learning experience."  Shannon, her twin sister, Cheryl, and their mother had a very close relationship. All three women have intuitive capabilities and Pat allowed Shannon to make her own mistakes.  Shannon  in her late 20's,  started to develop her own psychic abilities. And as a twin, Shannon and her sister Cheryl, have psychic abilities that they work on together from near and afar.   Shannon shares stories of all the music in their home growing up. "Mom, she was brilliant. She could play any instrument by ear you gave her. Her main instrument in our home was the piano." With an infectious laugh that Shannon most likely inherited from her mom,  my guest fills us in on how funny  her mother was. She just lit up the whole family with her witty sense of humor. Shannon Grissom is an award winning artist, author and illustrator of the book "Monkey Made of Sockies" and most recently the creator of 'Sock Monkey Oracle Cards."   - Each card is a unique painting of a sock monkey which correlates to a specific Oracle Card. What are Oracle cards? Shannon Grissom will explain all of this and share more stories of her mom  Pat. https://twitter.com/ShannonGrissom  FB Page 1.4K FB Personal 2.1K https://www.facebook.com/ShannonGrissomCreations/ YouTube 410 https://www.youtube.com/shannongrissom LinkedIn 1.1K (CENTRAL VALLEY TALK SHOW-APRIL 2022 WITH AUSTIN REED. https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannongrissom/ TikTok 95 https://www.tiktok.com/@shannongrissom IG 1.1 https://www.instagram.com/shannongrissom/   *WEBSITE https://sockmonkeyoracle.com/ "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Clare was born in New York City yet her parents were originally from Ukraine. Rich is a very warm and caring son. Looking back, Rich would like to have asked his mom "what she was so worried about all the time." Looking back, my guest also has regrets for his mom's lack of happiness and wellbeing. As a teen he was more concerned with himself than the welfare of his mom. In hindsight,  he wishes she had taken better care of herself- had more friends, etc. As a young girl, Clare's mother, Rich's maternal grandmother, put a lot of pressure on Clare to practice her music. Clare was a phenomenal concert pianist.  She studied piano from a young age and within a few years she suddenly quit playing the piano, defiant to her mother's constant nagging. Rich's mom was overprotected and as he says "kind of spoiled." Interestingly enough, Clare was overprotected by her own mother and then did something similar to her only son. Rich refers to it as a "constant hovering."  As a result, Rich created his own  internal world  or a world of imagination which he found at the library and through books.    A college professor recognized that Rich  showed some true talent in his poetry and encouraged him to pursue it. Today, Rich is a poet and has almost one hundred poems published in the Monmouth Review (Monmouth University) and two in the International Journal of Poetry Therapy and several in other literary publications. Twenty years since his mom's death, he looks back fondly on his memories of his mom . His memories don't rattle him as much now. He's embracing the whole picture of her life and not just the last five years that she endured Alzheimer's.  Poem#1  The Science of Medicine Poem #2  Bringing In The Tide https://www.amazon.com/Writing-Away-Demons-Creative-Transformative/dp/0878393293 Richard's forthcoming book of poetry "Constellations" due to be published late 2022.  "Constellations are our attempt to make sense of the universe. We create patterns in the sky, trying to understand what God might mean, and write our stories as if we knew. These poems are my constellations. The words are stars. May their light be a guide to find your way home." - Richard Fireman "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives. Jackie's guests are open and honest and answer the question, are you who you are today because of, or in spite of, your mother and so much more.

Montes De Oca translated from Spanish means "mountains of Oca or bird similar to a goose" -from an area in the Basque region of Spain in the north central mountains, and that is where Carlyn's family originally emigrated from. Carlyn is a first generation Mexican American who was raised in California. It wasn't until she took a DNA test in her 50's, just to see what her more specific lineage was, that she found out some shocking news. There was a discrepancy in one of the results that caught Carlyn's eye, but being busy, she let it go. She had noticed that all of her siblings seemed to be very quiet and distant once she started asking questions. Had she spent more time on fully reading the results, she would have seen that there was a woman's name listed as a potential relative. "Ancestry DNA doesn't lie" is what Carlyn was told by this stranger's husband. Carlyn's mother and father made a life changing decision based on love and compassion . They didn't hesitate or dwell on the possible difficult road ahead. They did what they felt was the right thing to do. a sister and two brothers that live nearby plus 2 other siblings in  Mexico  that were a lot older. As teens, Carlyn's older siblings suddenly had an adopted baby sister and were told by their parents, not to tell anyone, including their baby sister that she was adopted for fear of someone trying to take her away.  You will never tell her she's adopted because if you do, there are  people out there that may try and hurt her. " Children born out of wedlock where not looked at fondly and Carlyn's parents didn't want that stigma to follow her. When I asked my guest how she's been handling all this upheaval, she says "it's a paradox. Life works in mysterious ways and it gives you the information that you need at exactly at the right time. The first year was really  hard and this is tough stuff."  Her parents  were both strong people and they raised their children to be tough. "It's hard to have the rug pulled out from under you and to loose your identity in the snap of the fingers." I guess you never know what you'll find in your results  when you do a DNA test. It especially is difficult when you get conflicting results as an adult vs a baby or child. Carlyn mentioned LDA or Late Discovery Adoptees. I've attached the link if you'd like further information.        https://www.latediscoveryadoptees.com/ It's been a journey for Carlyn since she got this startling news of being adopted. In the subsequent years, she's done a lot of soul searching and research. She's interviewed many people and family members, found her biological mother and adopted her dog, Grace. November  2022, Carlyn released her most recent book "Junkyard Girl: a Memoir of Ancestry, Family Secrets and Second Chances."  Mary was known for being  very over protective of her daughter and it in fact it caused a lot of contention between the two ladies. She loved her daughter and felt that because she was adopted, she needed to keep an eye on her for her safety. The only regret that Carlyn really has is that her siblings didn't tell her the truth before her parents passed away. Carlyn's older sister thought she was protecting her adopted sibling, just as Carlyn's mother, Mary, thought being over protective would serve her well. Carlyn's Books: "Dog As My Doctor, Cat As My Nurse" "Paws For The Good Stuff-A dog lover's journal" "Paws For The Good Stuff-A cat lover's journal" Discover More https://animalhumanhealth.com/ http://animalhumanhealth.com/media-press/ https://animalhumanhealth.com/book/ https://animalhumanhealth.com/junkyardgirl/ https://animalhumanhealth.com/blog/ https://animalhumanhealth.com/press-kit/carlyns-bio/ https://www.facebook.com/carlynmontesdeoca/ https://www.facebook.com/CarlynMDO https://www.instagram.com/carlynmontesdeoca/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tq8EpIit7Lw         "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Sondra was a elementary school teacher and loved by her students but, at home she and her second husband loved to argue.   When asked how, at such a young age, did Jonathan have this wisdom and where-with-all about alternative therapies for healing his depression and suicidal tendencies,  he mentioned "seeing my very shy sister being hypnotized by my uncle, who was a hypnotist,  into thinking she was Mick Jagger."  That gave Jonathan great hope for alternative therapies and treatment.  "If I could control my mind, I might be able to reduce my suffering and eventually kind of create my own reality, in fact that has happened," continues Robinson. "If people had the right tools, they could be resilient and survive anything" says Robinson. Jonathan shares  stories of when he was on the Oprah Winfrey show in the 1990's.  My guest often reflex back to the significance of his tough years as an adolescent and how crucial those years were to his healing transformation. But he credits Oprah for her intuition and her ability to overcome the horrors of her childhood where "she was gang rapped  multiply time by the age of fourteen and had a still born child by 15. " She was able to maintain such a good focus, while being so famous is that the roots go  deep, that she really had to find something within herself, that helped guide her for the rest of her life," shares Jonathan.   Jonathan has a very funny story that he shares about his mother and how she eventually came around to appreciating his quest for inner peace and his passion for meditation. Jonathan says he got his curiosity for learning from his mother.  And he cherishes his memories of his mom teaching him how to read at three or four years old. Jonathan's podcast is called "Awareness Explorers"  https://www.awarenessexplorers.com/ where you can find many 10 minute best guided meditations from the Dali Lama and more respected healers. Go to the 'meditation' page. His first book "The Experience Of God" and now with the release of his fourteenth book, "The Enlightenment Project," Jonathan's advice is to "try anything and everything and see what you like and what brings you great peace, then use it. Another great piece of advise is  "what you resist persists," be in the moment and relax. Embrace the moment that you're in and embrace that peace." Jonathan's website: "EnlightenmentProject.net, https://www.theenlightenmentproject.net/ "Humility was a key ingredient to growth and if I ever did not feel that way or grateful for all the help I 'd been  given, then I knew I was going off track," is one more parting message from Jonathan.   https://findinghappiness.com/get-to-know-me/   "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Samara  was born in in Baltimore, MD and lived in Jacksonville, Fla. till she was  25. At that point, Samara moved to Northwest North Carolina. At a young age, Samara envisioned her life quite differently, especially in the kitchen. This is where the story begins.... "Marilyn didn't talk about her childhood very much because she doesn't have much that's positive to share, continues Samara. "When she was being raised, she was the product of what would be considered an illegitimate relationship. She was treated very much like the black sheep and the role that they found for her in the family was basically as  something of a servant. She was always cooking and cleaning up after everybody. And over the years, she says she started making food for the family when she was seven. Over the years, she developed her kraft and honed her techniques and  developed an actual love of her process." My guest says that her mother was a rebellious teenager in the early 1940's. Marilyn's mother, Samara's grandmother, did not have a true  presence in her daughter's life. "To say that she was emotionally unavailable is pretty accurate," reflects Samara about her mom.  "Why are you crying, it's not going to bring them back" is what Marilyn would say to her daughter if she was sad and crying about loosing someone." Samara was drawn to her mom's passion of cooking. At the drop of a hat there'd be anywhere from 10 or more guests for dinner. Unfortunately, Samara would serve as the dish washer and cleaner and not an assistant to the chef.  Samara remembers distinctly her mom prepping food for the holidays. "Her Passover Seders, were the meals that stand out to this day. It was because they were never less than an elaborate affair. She'd start cooking days in advance to make the chopped liver and stick it in the fridge and make the Gefilte fish  from scratch, you know,  it was an ordeal, every year."  Today, the relationship is strained between mother and daughter.  Marilyn was a stay at home mom and  critically ill throughout Marilyn's life.  Mom has been bedridden for five years. Both parents are medical professionals but as Marilyn says, "they both hold their cards very close." Samara loves her mom. She says "my mom would give you the shirt off her back, she's was always very generous and a bit of a philanthropist." Despite their differences, Samara truly cares about her mom. Samara's mother is very generous and giving and really a philanthropist with hopes and desires to help others succeed. Despite their differences and challenges in their relationship, Samara truly loves her mother. Samara's current business -"Brew Naturals."  It's all about Elderberries and introducing the local community and retail  and online sales to the variety of snacks, honey, beer, treats, etc that she's created. Plus she loves collaborating with local businesses including breweries to a chocolatier, local creamery, etc. Hearing Samara talk about her Elderberry Apple Butter just makes my mouth water.

Lynda Huffman left the corporate world after decades of working in medical sales. At this point in her life she wanted to concentrate on what made her happy -interior design. For over 30 years, she'd been designing and decorating on the side and now she's created the "Let's Decorate App" to help anyone and everyone have an easier time at what can be an overwhelming task-fixing up their own home.  Lynda will help you every step of the way. Lynda said that her story was complicated and in fact it truly is. I'll do my best in filling in the details.   Lynda's parents were in their teens when they met and realized that Carolyn, Lynda's biological mother, was pregnant. They married, then shortly before the baby was born, her father was sent to Vietnam.  Subsequently, once dad was oversees, Carolyn was considered an unfit mother and lost custody of her two year old daughter.  At that point, Lynda's grandmother was granted custody.  Within a year Lynda was kidnapped from her grandmother's home by her mom and brought her daughter to Louisiana.  One night, Lynda was left under the care of an underage babysitter while her mother went to work. Unfortunately, Lynda had a terrible fever and the babysitter and her family brought her to the hospital. The doctors told them that Lynda had 103 fever and Rubella. A missing child report was filed and they brought Lynda back to her grandmother's care.   Lynda's father was summoned back to the US from Vietnam in order to handle the divorce and make sure his daughter was  safe and sound and then sent  back to fight in the war.  Two years passed and he eventually married Lynda's 'step mother'. The couple was married for 40 years. Lynda prefers to not give a name to her step mother and I'm sure you'll understand as you hear more of the story.    Lynda knows now that her step mother was extremely jealous of her.  Lynda also knows that her step-mother came from a very dysfunctional family and had a very abusive childhood.  "She was a constant source of real torment for me. All of my friends called me Cinderella" explains Lynda. I was her slave around the house. I was constantly told I was ugly and fat and I was never going to have a man take care of me" shares Lynda. This abuse started when Lynda was seven years old and lasted until she moved out at 18. Step-mom would lie to Lynda's father about things she never did in order to keep Lynda on restriction and not be able to leave the house.  "She kept me under thumb and she made sure that my dad was always mad at me for something," reflects my guest. For the most part, Lynda says "she was a good kid, though she did get caught sneaking out of the house one time but six weeks on restriction for not folding the clothes, was a bit much." My guest says she was just a good kid, a wall flower."  Lynda graduated hight school at seventeen, "but her dad wouldn't let her go away to college. My step mom was in my dad's ear, she didn't want me to leave the house." At 18, finally Lynda was able to move out of the house and got a job and was never going to go back to that house again. Lynda wanted to go to college whether she paid for it herself or not. She paid for college herself and she was never going to have to depend on them for anything. Lynda was going to prove to her step mother that "she did not need a man to take care of her!" Carolyn, Lynda's biological mom eventually  wanted to spend more time visiting her daughter. It wasn't until my guest was eighteen years old that she was able to go out with her mother alone.  At this point, Lynda had her mother on a pedestal. Lynda had envisioned her mom as 'a dream.' Anyone would be better than her step mother. Well, it turns out Carolyn had gotten remarried, but had  gotten pregnant just prior to  marrying her future second husband  and never told the truth about who's baby she was carrying. Lynda reflects on  the incredible take away of this story "it's made me who I am- good, bad or indifferent. I think that we make choices in life. I could have spent  the rest of my life feeling that anger that my mom had let me be raised by this wicked step mother." In my mind, when I grew up that's what all my friends called her." We make a decision, we can say, ok, i'm going to let this be the excuse for why I 'm behaving the way, ... but because my step mom was like that I chose to take a different approach with my step children and we are very close, I am very close with my stepchildren and they've been my step children since they were eight years old." Lynda chose forgiveness over anger after the birth of her second child. She realized that holding onto the anger and resentment toward her biological mother would only hurt her. She didn't want to continue this negative  tradition. Plus her children would benefit from having a grandmother in their life. Lynda is the first to admit that "her mother was a far better grandmother than a mother." Lynda proudly explains "my grandmother, Margaret,  was the one  I got my design eye from." As young as seven years old, Lynda knew  that she wanted to be an Interior Designer, especially after years of dusting and rearranging everything in her step mother's house every week. One of Lynda's favorite things to do was rearrange and decorate her room as a young girl. It brought her so much joy. In time,  Lynda  began sewing and became a seamstress, making beautiful curtains and pillows and was hoping to work in this field one day. Lynda can help you from your home on her new App - the "Let's Decorate App."  Everything from choosing paint colors to artwork, rugs, furniture and it's based on a variety of different rate packages based how many consultations you think you'd like, etc. You can ask Lynda  questions, send her room dimension, etc. It's all within the App so you'll have everything there as a reference.  https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lets-decorate/id1618796307 Link to the app in the app store.   https://www.facebook.com/LetsDecorate https://www.instagram.com/letsdecoratenow/https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lets-decorate/id1618796307?itsct=apps_box_promote_link&itscg=30200 WEBSITE:      https://www.letsdecorate.net/   "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Therapy Twins Joan and Jane were raised in Connecticut. Both of the sisters are former nurses and their background and life experiences are varied and complex. Just to set up the relationships-Jane is two minutes older than he twin Joan. For most of their lives, they've always  been referred to as  as 'Jane and Joan', so now they like to refer to themselves as Joan and Jane.  Lori, their older sister by three years, is considered the twins 'second mama.'   My guests explain why they believe their mother was not overwhelmingly affectionate and loving.  They believe it began when  their  maternal grandmother abandoned all of  her five children, including the twin's mom, Evelyn. However, Evelyn's father insisted on keeping all of his children and raising them himself.  At that point in  time the twins mom's life changed  drastically.   Evelyn and her twin sister, Rita,  had to go work and take care of injured soldiers and the local elderly and live at a nearby facility. It was not a pleasant environment to say the least. Joan and Jane's  parents met while roller skating and it was love at first sight. Evelyn worked at the local elementary school in the cafeteria for years. She wasn't necessarily a good cook but every night there was a full meal on the table.  From an early age the family was very close. Dinner, conversations, fresh cut fruit every night. "Our mom was a doll" always dressed up and presentable. Joan explains "I think she sacrificed a lot of herself so we could have more. I couldn't even imagine somebody better than she was." Jane on the other hand has a different perspective. " As the 'other' twin, I was born with a glass half empty and I was a depressed child.  I understand now that a mother glows when a child glows. I grew up with a big chip on my shoulder that my mother preferred Joan. Recently I came to the conclusion that when I got my depression treated, and I was bright and airy, I got the look, the smile from my mother and I'm so grateful.  The fact that she didn't leave us was good enough and that's all you need is a good enough mother." Because of miscommunication they lost many years of a loving relationship. Fortunately Jane and her mom both admitted the miscommunication before Evelyn passed in saying to each another "Oh I'm sorry I thought you didn't like me" and vice a versa. Jane insists that "when you change your perception in life and view things a little bit differently, you'd be amazed at the lovely memories you could have."  All Jane can remember now is the good. My guest's mom said "being an identical twin forces you to be comfortable being seen through a  microscope.  Joan and Jane are therapists for anyone and everyone, not just twins.  Between the  two women, they've had some terrifying life experiences including PTSD, a  mugging, sexual assault, near airplane crash and more. They believe  that they experienced early childhood trauma beginning in the 1960's, when they spent 30 days in separate incubators  before they allowed mom and dad to touch the girls.  It wasn't till they got home after one month that they experienced physical and emotional touch. The twins feel that this trauma helps them with working with their clients suffering from similar experiences. You can hear endless stories of the twins sharing symbiotic experiences,  emotionally and physically. And yes, they both have criminal records so don't be surprised if their arrest records  show up when you google them.

Amy is a former non fiction writer, journalist, speechwriter who's now concentrating on fiction, including mystery, romance and young adult works. Her most recent books are "The Potrero Complex" and "The NIghthawkers." (Please check on Amazon and/or Bookshop.org to  find her books). Gloria Felice, Amy's mom,  was a perfectionist layered with chronic anxiety and perhaps a lack of self confidence. So in turn, Gloria perhaps overcompensated by running an extremely orderly household.  So there were a lot of rules. ie "the kitchen was closed," Amy explains so her mom could keep the kitchen clean and organized for a certain amount of time. Gloria was very domestically focused and an exceptional cook. One of Amy's favorite meals was her mom's fried chicken. Amy's mother was born in 1933 and was hoping to attend a free thinking college but her parent's refused so she settled for one year at Colby College in Maine and shortly married her husband at 18-19 years old. Amy says, "she didn't have a strong enough ego to be defiant.  She would have had such a different life. She wanted to write and didn't have the confidence to do that." Felice had five children in seven and a half years and as the eldest, Amy took on the responsibilities of helping take care of her younger siblings. Amy explains that she was "an extremely obedient, good girl who never got into any trouble , which I now look back on and regret. I wish that I had acted out. I think I saved my acting out for my 60's." When it was time to leave home for college, because Amy's mom hadn't gone out into the world, worked outside the home and hadn't had her own life experiences, Amy  didn't really have that close a relationship with her mother. Amy felt she didn't need her. Amy felt her mom couldn't give her what she needed because her mom hadn't experienced any of these things that Amy was searching for. My guest made a conscious decision to have a completely different relationship with her own daughter compared to what Amy experienced from her mother. Amy always  felt safe and loved by her mother however Amy's tried "to have more of an adult friendship with her own daughter-to let her see me as a  true person with emotions and flaws."  Amy's still grappling with what kind of relationship she actually had with her mother. She knows that she was loved and taken care of and has similar characteristics, but "she made very conscious choices to be very different." Amy realized "that's not who I wanted to be."

My guest was born in Spain, in the Canary Islands. His father was from Austria and his mom from Chicago. The two met in art school in Vienna. Wenzly speaks English, German and Portuguese. As Wenzl explains , his earliest childhood memories are of him being wrapped/strapped to his mom's back while she  painted for hours on end. "She a very dedicated artist," shares McGowan. "Her work ethic, her love for art, and also her commitment to being her authentic self has totally made me who I am. I owe a lot to this wonderful woman." Spending time outdoors and exploring nature was a big part of Wenzl's childhood. He loved building tree houses and exploring the ancient art of building structures with stone among other things.  One of the main gifts that Wenzl believes his mom gave him when he was a child was "she would never punish me for being my authentic self." Wenzl was very driven and his mom knew not to ever push him in a specific direction. "I think my mom wanted me to have the freedom to decide for myself what I think is good and how I want to spend my time. And she had this respect for me that I think not many people have for their kids."  According to Wenzl he's "now moving more in the direction of meditation teacher, author and conscientious  explorer, philosopher that kind of thing excites me a lot. "Mom was a great singer and flautist but it came too easy to her so she stuck with her art because she didn't feel that she was an artist at all. We both like to challenge ourselves. "Perhaps I don't have my stuff together myself. If I want to change the world, or hope for a better future, then I need to change myself," continues McGowen.  Phenomenal mother, person and artist. Her art is really starting to get noticed. Brooke's philosophy on painting is similar to how she raised Wenzyl. "When she paints, she respects that the paint has their own will. She doesn't use brushes but pours paint on the canvas. And So yes, the paint really does do a lot of things that the artist doesn't expect, because she's not using it in a very controlled way but she is playing with that boundary of loosing control over the paint, but also respecting the paint's freedom to add to the painting in a spontaneous way.  Latest projects Board game- it's available on Amazon and it's about conscience relating-that you can play with family and/or friends- and  it's an opportunity to have more honest conversations or more difficult conversations.

Most graphic designers believe the same thing about their graphic design career. Get better at the craft. Design better logos, build stronger portfolios, eventually the money will follow. Sounds like good career advice. Except it rarely works that way.There is a quiet ceiling in your career success that the graphic design industry never talks about. And most designers slam into it without even realizing it.The shocking part? It has nothing to do with talent, AI, or the tools you use. It has everything to do with how designers think.In this episode of The Angry Designer Podcast, we dig into a conversation that started inside a group of highly skilled designers who all had the same fear. AI is coming for their craft. But the real problem was hiding somewhere else entirely.Something most graphic designers never question, design schools never teach and clients quietly notice long before designers do.If you are building a graphic design career right now, this conversation is what you need to hear!Because if you chase the wrong thing in your design career, no amount of skill, tools, or templates will save you.And the designers who figure this out first? They play a completely different game.- - - - - -The Angry Designer is a no-BS Graphic Design podcast created for frustrated creatives who are ready to ditch the fluff, destroy outdated advice, and start building a real, badass design career. Whether you're a freelancer, agency owner, or in-house designer, this podcast gives you the tools, mindset, and strategies to evolve in an industry that's changing fast, especially with AI shaking everything up.Stay Angry our Friends –––––––––––Join Anger Management for Designers Newsletter at https://tinyurl.com/mr4bb4j3Want to see more?  See uncut episodes on our YouTube channel at youtube.com/theangrydesigner Read our blog posts on our website TheAngryDesigner.comJoin in the conversation on our Instagram Instagram.com/TheAngryDesignerPodcast

Tammy Haddad  most recently finished teaching 5th and 6th grade and she likes to think that she knows what kids are into these days.  My guest is also the host of the "Cozy Rainbow" podcast which is geared for kids 10 years and up. As the  oldest of four siblings, Tammy says "I definitely get my drive from my mother. My father says "all my good qualities are from my mom."Though Tammy grew up in Las Vega, NV, she still has family that live on the reservation in Monument Valley, UT where her mother was raised. And it was through her tribe that both Shirlene and Tammy were able to get funds for their education.  Tammy's family was able to receive funding for college through various organizations, including the 'Native American Scholarship' (NAS) and 'Indian Health Services' (IHS) programs, just to name a few. Tammy explained "if you receive funding from IHS for college as Tammy's mother did, your first job in the healthcare field, you must work for two years on a reservation-part of a give back program." "My mother insisted that I apply for scholarships. I know lots of kids who didn't apply. I even worked at the scholarship office in college. I was dedicated to getting funding because of my mother. "Mom said, just get up and do it."  In turn, Tammy then was there to heIp her younger siblings apply as well.  And today, Tammy does not have tremendous outstanding loans.Tammy also shared her experience of coming out to her parents when she was then 16. She says "it was no big deal." She told her dad first, then her mom and her mom basically said "ok , cool no big deal." Tammy was very happy that her parents where understanding and that it wasn't a big to do.  She also doesn't understand why her sexual preference is anyone else's  business.  Tammy's advice to parents is, "tell your kids you love them no matter what, you'll never kick them out, and you'll always have a place to live here. Coming out doesn't have to be such a big deal," according to Tammy."Mom did all that she did-moved away, moved off the reservation and got her degree because she wanted me to have all the opportunities that she didn't have. My mom calls me her reincarnation" giggles Tammy. Not only do mother and daughter have similar personality traits, they do look very much alike.SOCIAL MEDIATWITTER: Tammy Haddad (@Had2Tammy) / TwitterFacebook: Cozy Rainbow Learning Co. - Home | FacebookInstagram: http://instagram.com/cozyrainbownvYoutube:  Cozy Rainbow - YouTube  "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Most graphic designers are terrified that AI will steal their creativity, their craft, and the soul of their work. But what if that fear is based on a completely broken idea of authenticity?For years, designers have defended the process. Handmade sketches. Craft. The belief that the tools and techniques define the value of the work. Now AI enters the conversation and suddenly everyone is convinced design is losing its soul.But here is the reality; authenticity was never about the tools or the craft. And if designers keep protecting those things like they are sacred, they are missing the one thing that actually makes them valuable.In this episode of The Angry Designer podcast, we break down the authenticity myth that has designers fighting the wrong battle. This is not a conversation about replacing designers. It is a reality check about what actually makes a designer irreplaceable.In this episode, you'll discover: - why the industry keeps confusing craft with value- why AI is exposing a much deeper problem in graphic design- why the future of design will belong to creatives who understand something far more powerful than tools.If you are worried about the future of graphic design, AI in design, or the changing role of designers in the industry, this episode will challenge how you think about creativity, authenticity, and what truly makes design valuable.Because the future of graphic design does not belong to the designers who cling to old tools. It belongs to the ones who understand what actually matters.Stay Angry our Friends –––––––––––Join Anger Management for Designers Newsletter at https://tinyurl.com/mr4bb4j3Want to see more?

Chris's mom, Yun Cha, and dad met at the grocery shop that she and her sister owned nearby to the US military base. After years of  moving base to base in the US and Europe, Yun Cha still in her twenties, moved  back to the United States with her family where she was trying to immerse herself into the American culture.After time,  trying to hold onto both cultures simultaneously, speaking Korean at home and English outside the home,  inevitably proved impossible. Yun Cha selflessly gave up speaking her native tongue to her children to help them assimilate back into their American culture.Chris says "my mom was a great dreamer and she dreamed of such wonderful things.   If you do what you want, you'll never work a day in your life." Chris says that was great until he wanted to work in the theatre industry. Suddenly mom was championing for her son to be a doctor or lawyer and not the theatre rat that Chris wanted to be.While living overseas, Chris and his older sister were immersed in the local culture regardless of what country they were living. That was one of many benefits of the American schools on the base. All the children were introduced to the history, arts and  entertainment of the surrounding area. They were exposed to so much more than their school books.Eventually Chris's mother did go back to visit her remaining family in Korea. It was then that Yun Cha was able to get a recovered photograph of her mom, something that she longed for for many years. It brought her great comfort to finally see the photo of her mom again.Chris's theatrical work, slightly on pause because of the pandemic: "Odd Lot "Improv Company and "Savannah Shakers" Shakespeare Theatre Company Podcast: "The Most Haunted City on Earth" -the telling of ghosts stories around Savannah.

Have you ever watched someone burn down their whole career while convincing themselves they're a genius? You can see the disaster coming from a mile away but they're so wrapped up in their own BS they think the smoke is a spotlight.Graphic Designers do this every day. They cling to the tools they know, defend the style they hide behind, refuse anything that feels beneath them… and then wonder why they're stuck, frustrated, or quietly irrelevant.The saddest part? It never feels like ego. It feels like confidence… right up until the moment it blows up in their face.This week on the Angry Designer podcast, we break down the pride habits that wreck designer careers without them noticing. If any of these feel familiar, your blind spot is already costing you.In this episode you'll confront:• Why pride convinces graphic designers they're “evolving” when they're stuck• How ego kills credibility with clients faster than bad design ever will• The silent damage pride causes inside agencies, teams, and your own brandingIf you think the real threat to your graphic design career is AI or juniors or the industry you're already looking in the wrong direction. Miss this, and the only thing standing between you and failure will be you.Stay Angry our Friends –––––––––––Join Anger Management for Designers Newsletter at https://tinyurl.com/mr4bb4j3Want to see more?

I truly enjoyed my conversation with Naveen.Even with  all of his accomplishments, he's very humble and unassuming. When speaking about his mother, he fondly recalls stories of how his mother ran their household. Don't forget, at this time in India, women did not work. Their role was to make sure the home was well kept  with generations of family members all living under one roof. Naveen's father was a Senior Officer in the Royal Service and it was an arranged marriage that brought the couple together. Jayalakshmi  was an exceptionally talented writer of short stories and novels. Her first priority was at home taking care of the family. She never sat around. She carried a clip board around with her and wrote down her most cherished thoughts. On a daily basis, she kept all the financial records/household accounts of how much money was spent each day. She stayed up late every night to write in two different India languages.   Naveen learned from his maternal grandmother that his mother, the first of eight children dropped out of school after sixth grade because she wanted to get married and settled down. Culturally that was accepted and the norm for the most part.My guest, the youngest  of four children, had two sisters and one brother. As he says now, "I'm the last man standing." He grew up among elders including his aunt and uncle and his cousin all together in one household. Naveen shares three very touching stories about his mother including how and when she started her writing, her professional connections and her public recognition as a highly revered author.  Again, in India, this is unheard of and she did this without fanfare or calling attention to herself.Naveen's mom, didn't have much of a sense of humor according to her son. She was very practical and a no nonsense kind of woman yet happy with her life.To find out more about my guest you can use the link below. This event is scheduled for August 28, 2022.  https://thewashingtonmail.com/win-free-books/Books Naveen has written:A Hittite and a Shaman: At Queen Nefertari's Secret ServiceStarlight in the Dawn: The Poetic Priestess who chose to fightCandlelight in a Storm: Born to Be a Berliner"Candlelight In A Storm-Born To Be A Berliner" a biography of Naveen's wife who fled from WWII's violence, escaped from Communist regimes and traveled around the world. He is the recipient of the 2018 DaVinci Eye Finalist-The Eric Hoffer Award.  “Courageous and resilient women in history: Women are under-represented in history. A closer look and even fantasy in fiction may help," say Sradhir.My guest has written several books about women who have overcome difficulties, oppression and more. Mr. Sridhar continues " women ,famous or not,  who show their grit by way of resilience, adamance and courage, these women are quiet and not talked about, their stories untold. Instead of HIS-tory maybe it should be HER-story."Naveen Sridhar's website:   https://www.naveensridhar.com/Languages Naveen Speaks: English, German, Hindi, French, Kannada, Spanish, Tamil, Urdu   "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Most graphic designers think ageism in graphic design is the problem. They think once you hit 40, the industry starts phasing you out. That younger designers with faster tools and bigger social followings are taking over.If you're a graphic designer over 40, you've probably asked yourself: am I too old for this industry?But what if age isn't the threat at all?What if the real issue is how graphic designers have confused speed with value and bought into a narrative that keeps them insecure, divided, and easy to replace?In this episode of The Angry Designer Podcast, we break down the truth about ageism in graphic design, the myth that graphic design is a “young person's game,” and what actually determines whether a graphic design career after 40 thrives or fades.You'll learn:– Why “design is a young person's game” is one of the biggest myths in the graphic design industry – How corporate culture benefits when graphic designers over 40 compete with younger designers – What experienced designers bring to branding, logo design, and creative leadership that tools and trends never will – The real reason some graphic designers become irrelevant long before 40This isn't about defending older designers. It's about understanding what makes a graphic designer indispensable in branding, strategy, and creative direction.Because if you think this is just about age, you're missing the bigger shift happening in graphic design right now. And that mistake will cost you.Stay Angry our Friends –––––––––––Join Anger Management for Designers Newsletter at https://tinyurl.com/mr4bb4j3Want to see more?

Dropping out of college at 21 to marry her high school sweetheart, getting divorced with 4 children, having to get a job in the 70's, -that's a lot for anyone, let alone a single woman. Marilyn, Suzy's mom, was an only child born in Jefferson City, MO in 1929. She was raised by her doting parents making sure their beautiful daughter had everything she needed or wanted. My guest recalls  "my mom was beautiful as a child . She tap danced, was a ballerina and a cheerleader, everything her parents wanted in a child."Though things got tough for Suzy at a young age, the youngest of four children, Marilyn proved herself more than capable of handling most everything on her own. In time, Suzy started to bear the brunt of coming to mom's aid.  An older brother's mental illness started taking its toll on the family and Suzy was there to stand by her mother and help her through these crises. Suzy's message to my listeners is "my mom was the worst."  I'm fine, my life is great.

Feeling conflicted about wanting more money, growth, or freedom as a graphic designer? This episode breaks down the hidden guilt that keeps creative careers stuck.Most graphic designers think guilt is a good thing. That it keeps them humble. Grateful. Grounded.Designer guilt is quietly limiting careers. It shows up when you enjoy your work, when you want more money, when you like your office, your lifestyle, or your success. And instead of owning that progress, many designers apologize for it.They play small. They stop pushing. They convince themselves that wanting more somehow makes them selfish.In this episode of The Angry Designer Podcast, we talk about the designer guilt nobody really talks about. Not guilt from doing bad work, but guilt from having a great job, a creative career, and the ambition to want more from it.This isn't about ego. And it's definitely not about hustle culture.It's about recognizing how guilt, comfort, and fear quietly cap your growth as a graphic designer.In this episode, you'll discover:Why graphic designers feel guilty about success, stability, and enjoying their workHow designer guilt quietly limits income, growth, and long-term career opportunitiesWhat it takes to stop apologizing for ambition and start owning the career you have earnedThis episode is a reality check for graphic designers who feel conflicted about success, uncomfortable wanting more, or stuck between gratitude and growth. If you want a sustainable graphic design career without guilt, self-sabotage, or playing small, this conversation will hit close to home.Stay Angry our Friends –––––––––––Join Anger Management for Designers Newsletter at https://tinyurl.com/mr4bb4j3Want to see more?

Graphic designers are sabotaging their own design careers every single day and most of them don't even realize it.“I'm passionate about design.”“I love feedback.”“You know your brand best.”“It's still in progress.”These sound professional. They sound polite. They sound safe. And they're quietly destroying your authority with clients, your credibility as a graphic designer, and your ability to charge higher design fees.What most graphic designers don't want to admit is this: we've trained our design clients to disrespect us.We hide behind buzzwords.We avoid hard conversations.We beg for approval instead of leading.And then we wonder why clients question every design decision, ignore our branding advice, and treat us like order-takers instead of experts.Most designers stay stuck here because it feels comfortable.A few learn how to change how they communicate and start getting real respect.In this episode of The Angry Designer Podcast, we break down the most common phrases graphic designers say to clients and what they actually mean. We expose how “nice” language, fake confidence, and vague design talk sabotage client trust, weaken your authority, and hurt your design business.In This Episode, You'll Learn:Why “I'm passionate about design” and “I love feedback” weaken your authorityHow poor client communication turns graphic designers into doormatsThe exact mistakes that cause clients to doubt your design and branding decisionsThis isn't about being mean. It's about being honest. It's about learning how to talk to clients like a professional, not like someone hoping to be liked.Because if you keep hiding behind buzzwords and fake professionalism, you'll stay stuck doing endless revisions, undercharging for your work, and wondering why clients never see you as an expert.Your clients aren't the problem.Your language is.Stay Angry our Friends –––––––––––Join Anger Management for Designers Newsletter at https://tinyurl.com/mr4bb4j3Want to see more?

Musicians and songwriters are storytellers. And Jackson has been writing songs since he was about 12 years old. His debut single, "I Love you Mom" is a belated birthday gift to his mom. He wasn't going to record it in his next studio session but his coworkers insisted, and here we are.Over the years and decades of working in the radio industry, I've interviewed hundreds of musicians. Jackson is up there at the top of the list as far as being polite, honest, humble and open about his strengths and weaknesses. I imagine a lot of that comes from his childhood and the fact that his family played a huge role in his life. Family is very important to my guest, not only because they keep you grounded, but he realized at a young age exactly how fortunate he truly was to have a mom , dad and brother that  truly supported each other. He was taught to show respect and appreciation for all that he has and he really is all that!  Jackson talks about "his solid foundation" and how it helps him stayed focused.'Norman's Rare Guitars' in Los Angeles, CA recorded a few videos with Jackson featured playing the guitar with special guest musicians. You should check these videos out on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uf89aB_bWXY "Prove You Right"Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fL2SRhQf1tI  "Different Kind Of Beautiful" with special guest Tim Pierce on guitarHe's known for being at the right place at the right time but Jackson works hard at his craft because he's so passionate about his music.  Jackson has a great story to share about one of his early performances at the legendary Puckett's in Leipers Fort, TN. For such a young performer, he got some crazy memorable stories to share about all the celebrated artists he's come into contact with.I wish you all the best Jackson!

You THINK you're an expert. Yet clients redesign your work. Question every decision. Run your projects. And somehow… you're surprised?While the industry HAS been slowly devaluing the term 'design', let's stop pretending this “just happened.” Most graphic designers trained clients to treat them like order-takers. You rushed. You skipped strategy. You agreed with everything clients said. You focused on tools instead of thinking. You made yourself easy. Now you're paying for it.In this episode of The Angry Designer Podcast, we break down why graphic designers are losing authority with clients and why graphic design is no longer being treated as expert problem-solving. We talk about branding, design careers, client relationships, and what it actually takes to earn trust and respect again.In this episode, you'll learn:• Why “fast and flexible” is killing your credibility and design career • How templates and AI changed how clients see graphic designers • What respected branding and graphic design leaders do differentlyThis isn't about bad clients. It's about bad positioning. If you don't lead, you get managed. If you don't think, you get replaced.

All we need is one special person in our life to change our destiny. When Irina mentioned that her grandmother had taught her to sew, I knew there was something very telling about her maternal role models in her life.  Irina introduces us to her mother, Etya and Grandmother Beyla, who was a seamstress. Unfortunately, Etya's father died when she was a young teen in Russia.Etya was born and lived in Russia till the age of 25. She was one of three children, came from a poor family at a time when it was difficult to be successful in Russia. Etya was the kind of child that "always wanted more than what was available," says my guest about her mom.My guest, Irina was born in Russia  and came to America as a Jewish refugee when 2 1/12 years old.  What is it like to grow up with a mother who always thought of herself first?  "She told me I  that I was worthless and stupid all the time" says Lester of her mother.  "I was always in her way and she was always exhausted by me." Irina says she developed survival skills at a very young age.It wasn't until Beyla, Irina's grandmother, insisted on taking her granddaughter to her place of work as a seamstress or to her home, "where she felt safe, loved and cared for and allowed to be a kid," continues Lester. This is when and how Irina's life started to turn around.  I know that there are many children that never get this lifeline through out their life. Irina got lucky but there certainly are many scars that she wears with frustration, hurt  and humility.Previously divorced and a single mom, Irina struggled to care for her young daughter, so she's familiar with what her mother experienced, but it doesn't mean that you have the right to mistreat and/or abuse your child because you are a narcissist. "The local Yarn Store",  in  large part, is due to the influence her grandmother had on my guest's life. Beyla introduced  Irina  to embroidering and hand stitching and so much more.  Irina says, "my grandmother taught me to appreciate the beauty and the creative process and the functionality of the basics of clothing."  Luckily, Irina inherited her grandmother's sewing machine and is now an avid knitter.Hear the full story when you listen to this episode of SHLTMM. https://thelocalyarnstore.com/https://www.facebook.com/The-Local-Yarn-Store-324924261265048     "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Graphic designers are walking into client meetings confident…and walking out confused, frustrated, and second-guessed. Not because they're bad designers. But because what they were taught has almost nothing to do with what clients actually want. This isn't a design problem. It's a brutal expectation gap that nobody warned you about.Graphic designers hate hearing this, but it needs to be said. Most of us were taught to focus on making things look good, not on making decisions that actually move a business forward. So when clients push back, question everything, or lose confidence, designers assume the client is the problem. They're not. The knowledge gap is.This week on The Angry Designer Podcast, we're calling out the massive disconnect between graphic design education and real-world client expectations. We break down the skills both schools or online videos gloss over, the ones experienced designers learn the hard way, and why clients assume you already know this stuff the moment money is on the table.In this episode you'll discover- Why “good design” isn't enough anymore and never was- The skills experienced designers use to earn trust that schools never teach- How clients judge designers in the first five minutes of a conversationThis episode isn't about school. It's about whether you evolve or get stuck. Because clients aren't looking for more design. They're looking for someone who can think, decide, and lead. And if you can't do that, they'll find someone who can.Stay Angry our Friends –––––––––––Join Anger Management for Designers Newsletter at https://tinyurl.com/mr4bb4j3Want to see more?

'The Freedom Flights' from Cuba to the United States took place between 1965 and 1973. The Cuban Government agreed to allow America to transport fleeing Cuban families, with relatives in the US,  to Miami. In 1967, Maria, her brother  and her parents were among  the hundreds of thousands that fled to start a new life in America. Because the family was sponsored by a New Jersey business man, they settled there to begin their new life. Maria was 16-17 years old when she came to the United States and according to her son, "considers herself an American." Joe insists "my mother is old school and worked very hard through out her life.  She went to school for as long as her family could pay for it and then went on to work in factories where she was treated terribly as an immigrant."Both of Joe's parent's family's are originally from Spain, even though his mother had been living in Cuba.  Joe's father, a ship mechanic and hard worker came to the US and met Maria.   They married when Maria was 19 years old and started a family.Joe repeatedly mentions through out the interview that as a child and even today,  "I never wanted to disappoint my mother." Both of his parents worked very hard to give Joe and his brother everything they wanted. All Maria asked of her boys was to treat others they way you  want to be treated. "Mom encouraged us to do what ever made us happy" says Pardavila. "I'm very grateful for all those little life lessons that were taught to me, whether through osmosis or verbal. It king of stuck to me and it's a part of my life for life."Joe is the Director  of Podcasts for Advantage Forbes Books as well as the host of the podcast "Uncertain Times, Survive And Thrive In Business." He's also written the book "Good Listen," where he shares his experience and background as a producer/talent for the 'Scott and Todd Morning Show' on WPLJ FM, one of New York City iconic radio shows for 2 decades. He came to understand that he had many "soft skills" he could share and apply with others regarding great communication tools, regardless of what medium you choose to apply them.The Freedom Flights were an unusual instance of cooperation between the US and Cuban governments. During the Camarioca boatlift in 1965, Castro opened up the Cuban port of Camarioca for the departure of Cubans with relatives in the US (excluding men of military age). The number of boats and fleeing Cubans was so great that the boatlift overwhelmed the US Coast Guard. In an effort to support refugees and quell chaos, the US agreed with Cuba to finance the Freedom Flights, which transported Cuban refugees with US relatives to Miami twice daily, five times per week between 1965 and 1973. The Freedom Flights would bring about 300,000 Cubans to the US and cost approximately twelve million dollars. Although Castro initially agreed to the program, Cubans who signed up faced harassment and humiliation before their departure and property confiscation after.

Graphic Designer burnout is killing careers. And the industry is lying about why!Designers are crying burnout, quitting jobs, questioning their talent, and walking away from design entirely. Not because they hate graphic design. But because they've been told the wrong story about  designer burnout and they keep treating the wrong problem.Here's the part most Graphic Designers don't realize: burnout advice trains you to blame yourself instead of the industry. It convinces designers they're lazy. Weak. Undisciplined. Bad at boundaries. So they journal. Meditate. Take breaks. Then they walk right back into the same broken systems that burned them out in the first place.This week, in this solo episode of The Angry Designer Podcast, Massimo breaks down why Graphic Designer burnout is being completely misdiagnosed and why most burnout advice actually makes things worse. This is not about motivation. It is not about passion. And it is definitely not about grinding harder. It is about identifying the real causes of design burnout and calling out the industry problems nobody wants to touch.In this episode, you'll learn:- Why graphic designer burnout is not a personal failure and never was- The three types of burnout designers confuse and why that confusion keeps them stuck- How the design industry protects broken systems by pushing useless burnout adviceThis episode is not here to make you feel better. It is here to make you see clearer. Because if you keep calling this graphic designer burnout without questioning the industry behind it, you will either resent design or leave it entirely. And neither one is necessary.Stay Angry our Friends –––––––––––Join Anger Management for Designers Newsletter at https://tinyurl.com/mr4bb4j3Want to see more?
