Today we're exploring how financial literacy changed a person's life. Our guest is Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin — former Wall Street lawyer, leadership consultant, single mom, and founder of The Gaia Leadership Project. From the outside, her life looked picture-perfect: elite career, national media appearances, a thriving business. But behind the scenes, Elizabeth was battling deep financial insecurity, credit card debt, and the emotional weight of divorce and single motherhood — all while running a nearly 7-figure company.In this deeply personal and powerful conversation, Elizabeth opens up about hitting financial rock bottom during the pandemic and the mindset shift that pulled her out. She shares how investing in financial education helped her pay off $50,000 in debt in six months, build emergency savings, and teach her children what she was never taught: how to talk about — and take control of — their money.To learn more about BudgetDog, click here and say you were referred by Elizabeth!

Thousands of children are believed to be born to Catholic priests, yet their stories have been buried under decades of secrecy and shame. On this episode of the Your Radical Truth Podcast, I sat down with Linda Kelly Lawless, an Australian genealogist who discovered through DNA testing that her biological father was a Catholic priest. What followed was a six-year uphill battle to have the Church simply acknowledge the truth. Her story is one of courage, perseverance, and the deep trauma caused by institutional denial. Linda is now the first person in Australia to have her birth certificate legally corrected in such a case. This episode isn't just about her, it's about a silenced population finally being heard.  www.yourradicaltruth.com/038-Linda-Kelly-Lawless #CatholicChurch #DNAJustice #YourRadicalTruthPodcast

Have you ever caught yourself saying, “I'm so bad at negotiating”? You're not alone. Many professionals—especially women—find negotiations intimidating, often citing discomfort, lack of information, or fear of backlash as reasons to avoid them altogether. Negotiation isn't something you're born knowing how to do. It's a skill that, like any other, can be learned and refined.In this episode, we hear from Mya, a government professional based in Los Angeles, who once shared those same fears.

Lorraine also shares her personal journey, building an inclusive rental to meet her family's needs, and the lightbulb moment that sparked the idea for a global platform.

Episode 540 - Lisa C Taylor - The Shape of What Remains, Choices one woman makes to heal from intractable griefI think about imagination and creativity and its place in our fast-paced world. For me, writing is a way of slowing down. The cadence and layers in both fiction and poetry are something to savor—and I do—rereading books by my favorite authors and new authors I discover again and again. The words stay with me long after I've turned the last page. These poems and stories bring a deeper meaning to my daily life.I can't remember a time when I didn't use writing to make sense of the world. The best writing reveals an emotional truth--different from the literal truth. As I tell my students, you owe nothing to reality. The best writing feels authentic even if it takes us to imaginary towns or leaps into a future we cannot know.I am the author of the novel, The Shape of What Remains (Between the Lines Publishing/Liminal Press, 2025), two collections of short fiction, Impossibly Small Spaces (Arlen House/Syracuse University Press, 2018) and Growing a New Tail (Arlen House/Syracuse University Press, 2015). I also have five published collections of poetry including Interrogation of Morning (Arlen House/Syracuse University Press, 2022) and the collaborative collection with Irish poet and writer Geraldine Mills, The Other Side of Longing (Arlen House/Syracuse University Press, 2011).Check my schedule on the Events page for a reading near you or contact me if you'd like to bring me to your hometown. Buy books (particularly from independent booksellers) and bring them as gifts next time you're invited to dine at someone's house. They last longer than a bottle of wine and you'll be one of the many heroes supporting small presses that often struggle to survive. You'll also be introducing writers to your friends.Cover reveal for Lisa's new novel The Shape of What Remains, a story about the choices one woman makes as she begins to heal from intractable grief.Pre-order is available now at Maria's Bookshop - Durango CO and Amazon.com.

Send us a textWhat happens when the world seems to move on after a devastating loss, but you're left picking up the pieces while simultaneously caring for grieving children? In this heartfelt conversation, we explore the critical work of Widowed Parent Relief Project (WPRP) and how they're transforming support for families experiencing profound loss.Kelly, WPRP's founder, reveals the science-backed approach behind their services, explaining that the number one predictor of how well children adjust to losing a parent is directly tied to the functioning level of the surviving parent. This crucial insight drives their mission to alleviate everyday stressors through practical services like home cleaning and organizing, while simultaneously building enduring support systems that prevent the isolation so many widowed parents experience.The discussion takes us deep into the rarely discussed "secondary losses" that accompany the death of a spouse – the 20-50 additional losses that cascade through a family's life, from social connections to practical skills the deceased partner handled. We learn how simple things like maintaining a yard, organizing paperwork, or even operating electronic devices can become painful reminders of absence and sources of overwhelming stress. As Kelly notes, "When you have this big grief, the things that ordinarily are life's burdens feel like the weight of the world on your shoulders."Beyond exploring these challenges, the conversation offers hope through WPRP's innovative two-pronged approach: providing paid services to reduce practical burdens while assigning family friend volunteers who serve as liaisons between widowed parents and communities that want to help but don't know how. These compassionate strategies create breathing room for grief while ensuring families don't face their journey alone.Whether you're personally touched by loss, know someone who is, or simply believe in the power of community support during life's most challenging moments, this episode will transform how you think about grief, parenting, and what it truly means to help when help is needed most.

Send us a textLife can change in an instant. Kelly Orrico knows this firsthand. After surviving a catastrophic stroke at age 38 that nearly took her life, Kelly found herself questioning her purpose and why she had been spared when doctors had no explanation for what caused her stroke in the first place.The story Kelly shares is nothing short of extraordinary. From the stranger who mysteriously appeared with her dog and entered her home to help, to the paramedic who broke protocol by taking her to the one hospital in Atlanta with the technology to save her, to the supernatural experience of feeling her late mother's presence during the ambulance ride – every moment seems divinely orchestrated. But the heart of Kelly's journey comes after survival. Battling post-stroke depression and constantly questioning her purpose, Kelly describes years of seeking direction through prayer and Bible study. The answer finally came when she recognized a critical gap in support for widowed parents after the initial wave of sympathy fades. Drawing from personal experience helping others and the biblical call to care for widows and orphans, Kelly founded the Widowed Parent Relief Project (WPRP), a nonprofit providing tangible, ongoing support when everyone else has moved on.What makes this conversation particularly powerful is Kelly's insight into grief support. She explains why the common "let me know if you need anything" approach fails grieving people who are overwhelmed by decision-making and often don't know what they need. Her organization addresses this by providing specific, concrete assistance rather than vague offers of help.The final confirmation of Kelly's mission came in discovering that National Widows Day falls on May 3rd – the very day that had haunted her questions about the timing of her stroke. In that moment, her entire journey clicked into place, revealing how her struggles had prepared her to serve others in their darkest moments.Has Kelly's story stirred something in you? Consider how you might better support those grieving in your community, or reflect on whether you're living with the kind of purpose that acknowledges the preciousness of each day.

“If you can't fix 'em, don't feed 'em. You may think you're being kind, but make sure you do the responsible thing and spay and neuter.” This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund. What started as a COVID-era effort to help feed pets in need has transformed into a full-fledged nonprofit tackling the staggering population of community cats in Orlando, Florida. In this powerful conversation, Wednesday Hugus shares how her organization evolved from a pet food pantry into a multifaceted rescue operation focused on TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return), medical advocacy, and grassroots community support. Wednesday, founder of Wednesday's Community Cats and Kittens, pulls back the curtain on what it takes to coordinate a network of trappers, feeders, and fosters — all while navigating limited resources, volunteer burnout, and systemic challenges. With a sharp eye for strategy and deep compassion, she's proving that a small-but-mighty group can make a real dent in a county with an estimated 90,000 community cats. From leveraging Nextdoor for real-time outreach to raising over $375,000 for medical cases, Wednesday shows what's possible when you combine hustle, heart, and hyper-local focus.

The Revolutionary Journey of Nature Care: How One Woman Susie Hewson Changed Feminine Hygiene Forever

Send us a textWhen Susie Hewson watched a TV program about chlorine bleaching in paper products in 1989, she never imagined it would launch a 35-year journey revolutionizing feminine hygiene. As founder of Nature Care, Susie transformed an industry by creating certified organic, compostable period products free from toxins and plastics at a time when women entrepreneurs faced extraordinary barriers.The environmental impact is striking—Nature Care customers prevent plastic equivalent to a blue whale from entering marine environments annually just by choosing sustainable products. But Susie's fight extended beyond creating alternatives; she faced corporate lawyers attempting to silence her advocacy and banks refusing loans to women entrepreneurs. Through persistence and unwavering integrity, she built a company embodying her personal values while educating consumers about hidden dangers in conventional products.Particularly alarming is Susie's revelation about regulatory oversight—agencies like the FDA don't conduct independent research but rely on industry-provided data to determine product safety. This explains why harmful ingredients remain on shelves for decades before being recognized as dangerous. She urges consumers to look beyond marketing claims for legitimate certifications like the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), warning specifically about "bamboo" products that undergo toxic processing despite eco-friendly marketing.At 72, Susie embodies the benefits of conscious living with "the cardiovascular system of a 35-year-old." Her journey demonstrates how one person's determination can create lasting change, not just in an industry but in how we approach our health and environmental impact. Through Nature Care's "Be Kind" project and commitment to donating 1% of turnover to environmental causes, she reminds us that meaningful impact often starts with simple, thoughtful choices.Ready to make healthier choices for yourself and the planet?

Despite overcoming many challenges as well as mental and physical hurdles during her voyage, Zara highlights the importance of resilience, self-belief, and the power of support from loved ones.About Zara LachlanZara Lachlan is a 21-year-old physics student at Loughborough University who is joining the army in September 2025 as a technical officer. She has competed internationally in cycling and rowing which she started at 16 at Welbeck, the Army's 6th Form College. Zara heard about ocean rowing when she was much younger but only decided to take on this challenge last summer, and the first time she ever saw an ocean rowing boat was in August.Two and a half months of intensive training later, she was fully prepared to row across the Atlantic solo.Zara faced extreme weather leading to a capsize, orcas and sharks, and a near miss with a large ship, yet still describes her expedition as the most enjoyable and rewarding experience she has come across so far. Zara set out to encourage others to find a fun way to keep fit and healthy and gain the confidence needed to try something new. None of her crossing would have been possible without the support she got from the charity Team Forces and all her sponsors.Connect with Zara Lachlan via Instagram Key Quotes"I didn't have a big reason to row across an ocean, I just thought it would be fun.""Some days, I rowed for 21 hours, and it still wasn't enough. That was a hard lesson in learning to accept what's out of my control.""For almost 60 days, I had no music, no distractions, just the ocean, the wildlife, and my own thoughts.""The hardest part wasn't the physical challenge. It was waking up every day knowing I had 3,000 miles left to go.""Nine times out of ten, you're stronger than you think you are.

Hey Fearless Friends - Send me a text and let me know what you are fearlessly facing as you age. You might get a shoutout on the show.And the F WORD IS: FASHIONFearlessly Facing Fashion as we age with Fashion designer, Karla Murguia, Founder of the Montsera Collective. Karla's story is a masterclass in following your soul's calling, no matter how daunting the journey might seem. From her comfortable position as a digital editor at Elle magazine in Mexico to the bold decision to start over in New York City, Karla demonstrates what happens when we choose courage over comfort.The conversation unfolds like a vivid tapestry, revealing how Karla's fearless spirit led her from prestigious fashion houses in Manhattan to remote villages in Chiapas, Mexico. There, she formed profound connections with indigenous women artisans who create magnificent textiles using backstrap looms—a technique they've learned since childhood. These artisans don't simply create fabric; they weave their cultural identity, community markers, and ancestral symbolism into every piece.What strikes you most about Karla's journey is her unwavering commitment to authentic collaboration. When taxi drivers refused to take her to villages protected by armed guards, she walked alone toward uncertainty. When communication barriers arose with artisans who speak Mayan dialects, she learned key phrases to honor their culture. Rather than imposing her designs, she invites the weavers' creative wisdom into every piece, establishing relationships built on mutual respect rather than exploitation.The Montsera Collective represents something far more significant than beautiful clothing—it's a bridge between worlds, a preservation of heritage, and a model for ethical fashion. As Karla's father wisely advised her, "Burn your boats"—commit fully to your path without the safety net of retreat. Through periods of doubt and tears, she persevered, understanding that meaningful success is "a marathon, not a sprint."Ready to be inspired by courage in action?

Is It Neurodivergence… or Abuse? One Woman's Journey to Truth and Freedom What do you do when the man you married is beloved by everyone, but you're falling apart behind closed doors? When he's neurodivergent—and you want to be compassionate—but you're the one carrying the entire weight of the marriage, ministry, and motherhood? In this deeply moving episode of Relationship Truth: Unfiltered, Leslie sits down with life coach, neurodiversity advocate, and former missionary Jenilee Goodwin. Jenilee courageously shares her story of being in a 23-year emotionally destructive marriage while also navigating the challenges of ministry, chronic illness, and parenting neurodivergent children. Her journey—from burnout and confusion to clarity and empowerment—will resonate with every woman who's ever asked: Is it really that bad… or am I just not trying hard enough? With honesty, wisdom, and deep spiritual insight, Jenilee walks us through the complexities of differentiating neurodivergent limitations from emotionally abusive behavior, and how she found the strength to obey God—even when it meant letting go of everything she'd built. Key Takeaways 1. Neurodivergence vs. Destructive Behavior: How to Discern the Difference Jenilee explains how difficult it was to separate her husband's ADHD and possible autism from his emotionally abusive behaviors. The turning point? Realizing that neurodivergence doesn't excuse a lack of empathy, unwillingness to change, or repeated disregard for her well-being. Diagnosis is not a license for disrespect. 2. When Ministry Expectations Keep You Stuck As a pastor's wife and missionary, Jenilee felt enormous pressure to keep up appearances. But when her health began to deteriorate and her husband refused to share the load, she had to make a painful decision: obey the institutional church… or obey God's whisper to “stop.” 3. You Are Not His Body and Brain Jenilee describes the crushing emotional and mental labor she carried for her husband—being his memory, his planner, his spiritual leader—until she said no more. When she stopped overfunctioning, things crumbled… but clarity and healing finally began. 4. Obedience to God Sometimes Looks Like Letting Go The lie that godly women must sacrifice themselves no matter what is one that keeps many stuck in harmful marriages. Jenilee shares how stepping into obedience—choosing truth over appearances—led to both heartbreak and unexpected joy. 5. Your Body Keeps the Score—But God Holds the Pen From MS and fibromyalgia to chronic fatigue, Jenilee's body bore the cost of the emotional toll she carried for years. But after she stopped rescuing her husband and started caring for herself, healing began—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Closing Encouragement Sister, you are not selfish for needing rest. You are not ungodly for drawing boundaries. You are not breaking your marriage—you are breaking free from patterns that are breaking you. Obedience to God may feel like a fire, but on the other side is freedom, clarity, and healing. Don't wait until your body forces you to stop. Listen to that still, small voice. God is calling you into truth—and into life. You can do this. We're walking with you.
