In this interview with Melissa Hunter, we discuss how this story, a fictional quasi-memoir of her grandmother's experiences as a teenager in a concentration camp in Nazi Germany, was one Melissa felt compelled to write but couldn't fully embrace until she became a mother herself. Through the years, she wrote it as a series of joined short stories and even a screenplay until finally settling on women's historical fiction as the ideal structure. We discuss working with a small specialty publisher, using the novel as an educational tool to educate young people about the Holocaust, and how a Facebook group resulted in a filmmaker using the book in an upcoming documentary. Melissa W. Hunter is a writer and blogger from Cincinnati, Ohio, with a passion for telling stories about her family and her own life experiences. Her articles have been published on Kveller.com, LiteraryMama.com, Booksbywomen.org, and her short stories have appeared in the Jewish Literary Journal. She is a contributing blogger to the Today Show parenting community, and her novella Through a Mirror Clear was published as a serial installment on TheSame.blog, an online literary journal written for women by women (now available in its entirety on Amazon.com). Her debut novel What She Lost is inspired by her grandmother's life as a Holocaust survivor and is the subject of an upcoming episode of the documentary Generation to Generation (Fall, 2021). When not at her computer, Melissa loves spending family time with her husband and two beautiful daughters. To learn more about Melissa, click here.

YouTubers Are Lobbying FTC to Fight Child Privacy Law ExpansionBy Mark Bergen, Lucas Shaw, and Ben BrodyNovember 5, 2019, 5:00 AM EST Service agreed not to run ‘personalized’ ads on kids’ videos Move ‘will cause more harm than good,’ according to petitionLISTEN TO ARTICLE 4:06SHARE THIS ARTICLEShareTweetPostEmailIn this articleGOOGLALPHABET INC-A1,301.86USD-10.73-0.82%A group of online video creators is protesting the Federal Trade Commission’s plan to regulate kids’ videos on YouTube, claiming new rules will hurt them financially and reduce the quality of programs on the world’s largest video site.On Tuesday, producers of prominent children’s YouTube channels will appeal to the FTC to change its recent settlement with the video service and will circulate a new petition online urging certain changes.In September, the FTC fined YouTube and its parent, Alphabet Inc.’s Google, $170 million for violating privacy laws by tracking children online. With the settlement, YouTube also agreed not to run “personalized” advertisements -- which rely on web browsing behavior and other targeting data -- on videos it decided are aimed at kids.“Shutting off personalized ads on creators’ content will cause more harm than good, especially for children,” reads the Change.org petition. “Quality family-friendly content will shrink, while more mature content will grow -- yet kids will still be watching.”The petition was started by Jeremy Johnston, a creator whose channel, J House Vlogs, has nearly 2 million subscribers. Johnston said he has met with multiple FTC commissioners about the issue. “I was surprised about how little they knew about the YouTube creator perspective,” he said. Johnston described his meetings with the agency as “really productive.”Videos for kids are among the most-watched on YouTube. Cocomelon, a channel of nursery rhymes, is the third-most-popular channel on the site, according to SocialBlade. Like Nastya, a child video blogger, ranks fifth.Tough SpotThe popularity of kids’ programming has put YouTube in an uncomfortable position. The company has maintained that the site isn’t for children, and doesn’t allow viewers under the age of 13. It created a separate app for kids, but its audience is about 1% the size of YouTube’s total reach.The internet obliterated many of the safeguards on children’s media. While television networks have strict regulations about what material they can and can’t show -- and some kids’ TV networks don’t accept advertising -- there are no such rules online.The FTC is in the process of reviewing how technology companies collect data on minors, a practice regulated under the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, or COPPA. The agency fined ByteDance Inc., which owns the video app TikTok, $5.7 million earlier this year. The law was also used in the case against YouTube. The FTC now is weighing updates to COPPA.Many video creators are anxious about those updates and the new restrictions on YouTube, which go into effect in January. The rules place the onus on the creator to identify if their programming is for kids, rather than YouTube. And the creators could face significant fines for not complying.When the restrictions on personalized ads go into effect, some YouTubers may see a decline in their revenue from the video service. Those rule punish creators unfairly, Johnston said.”The truth of the matter is that parents aren’t as concerned about personalized ads as the FTC makes it out to be,” he said.Spokeswomen for YouTube and the FTC declined to comment.The creators behind the petition want the FTC to delay enforcement of any new laws and keep them from applying to a wider swath of videos. Of particular concern is the way the agency defines a video for children. During an FTC public meeting last month, agency staff discussed a shift in the definition from online media “directed to kids” and those that attract minors.“‘Child-attractive’ could be anything on YouTube,” said Melissa Hunter from Family Video Network, another organizer behind the petition. “We feel that’s way too broad. And that shows a lack of understanding about YouTube.”YouTube has said it will comply with the new rules, but it has also encouraged creators to express their views. The company sent a notice to creators over the summer informing them of a workshop with the FTC. “It is important they hear from creators and small businesses that could be deeply impacted by potential changes,” a YouTube representative wrote, according to an email viewed by Bloomberg News.

Shut and be grateful if you want to live a sane life. As a person who has lived her entire life with depression and anxiety, I know a thing or two about the power of gratitude. It is my number one strongest weapon against the darkness that lurks around just waiting for an opening to steal my life. Warning, it will make you annoying perky and some grumps around you might stop being your friend.  Yay!   Sounds extreme, but that is the reality of a brain hardwired for depression and anxiety. Gratitude keeps me going. It keeps me on the side of light and it is also the secret to all of my successes.   My fave gratitude app (it's free!):  Gratitude Journal https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/grateful-a-gratitude-journal/id1197512462?mt=8 Never Miss an Episode of Just Go For It!  Head over to my website and sign up for the newsletter at Melissa Hunter.com   And follow me on all these fun places for behind the scenes fun and inspiration!

Prioritizing has become a joke.  Everyone talks about how important it is to set priorities, but the reality is that you can't have more than one priority. By definition a priority is "a thing that is regarded as more important than another."  It's a singular thing. The thing that is the most important. Meanwhile here we are prioritizing our lives to the point where the very concept of a priority is a joke. You can't have 8 priorities, or 10 or even 5!  It is not sustainable. In this week's podcast I share my own aha moment when I realized that I had made too many things a priority and that I needed to get real.  Focus is the key to success and peace of mind.  So let's get focused together!

For over 30 years I have told myself that manifesting money was total BS.  I believed in so many other things in life could be manifested, but not money. That was just so stupid.  Actually it was stupid....a stupid story I had been telling myself for 40 years.  I have some seriously deep limiting beliefs around money that kept me from being able to accept the reality that money and prosperity could be mine.
