Podcast appearances and mentions of Rebecca Eckler

The conversation with Gail Treasure was a good down to earth conversation. Gail is a remarkable writer, author, and retired teacher. We had a very interesting conversation about her career and journey in life. Gail Treasure is a retired school teacher who still teaches occasionally. Gail attended York University, where she majored in French and Italian. Gail has always loved to write, has taken countless writing courses, and attended numerous writing workshops. She is currently writing a novel for pre-teens, and she can not wait to release it. Gail is happily married and has two scientist daughters who Gail loves very much. Gail grew up in Toronto but now resides in the beautiful town of Uxbridge, Ontario. Gail wrote a novel called "Wife by the Hour" which was inspired by her many trips to France, her fascination with peeling back layers of the institution of marriage, and her desire to shed some light on the issue of the rights of sex workers in modern society in a fictional way. Gail is in a women group of kicka$$ writers. RE:BOOKS, a prominent independent publishing house in Toronto, was established by renowned 10x bestselling author, Rebecca Eckler. With a mission to champion the idea that "what's good is read and what's read is good," RE:BOOKS is dedicated to delivering captivating stories that even Eckler herself would love to devour. No book snobs allowed! RE:BOOKS helps women to get their books published—from the big idea to the bestsellers' list. No excuses. No sugarcoating. By curating the most exciting titles in Canadian publishing, they continue to inspire readers, offering a wide variety of fiction and non-fiction titles. Therefore, Gail's novel "Wife by the Hour" is about a woman named Julia - Meet Julia, a confident and empowered middle-aged single mother gracefully balancing her professional life as the sought-after escort, “Just Julia”, a nod to Pretty Woman. She enjoys the lucrative work; however, faced with the shifting sands of parenthood, she has decided to exit her “under the covers” business and turn to a full-time teaching career, stepping away from the escort business for good. On her final day, Julia finds herself more than enjoying the company of her last client—a handsome man named Alex, who she soon recognizes as the husband of a friend with whom she had spent a turbulent summer au pairing in the South of France 25 years earlier. Julia is bewildered as she realizes that she has undeniably strong feelings for a man for the first time in her life. As Julia falls deeper in love (and lust) with Alex, she can't help but dream that maybe—just maybe—he will reciprocate her feelings. When Alex asks (and pays) for Julia and her daughter to go to France, where he'll be vacationing with his family, including his wife, Julia can't say no, no matter how risky it is for everyone. Mostly, Julia wonders if and how it's possible she can get Alex to leave his marriage for her. Alternating between past and present day, Julia reflects on her escorting experiences and explores the seven reasons why many men are reluctant to leave their marriages and choose to pay for intimacy instead.

In this charming, meditative memoir, Jennifer recounts that first fateful year they spent at sea, moving back and forth through the waves of her life. On their first voyage, the couple sailed Watchfire to Baja's Sea of Cortez, where they spent a year before sailing south along Mexico and Central America and through the Panama Canal.

Danielle and I had a deep conversation about her husband who is a thrill-seeker. We spoke about her mental and emotional feelings about her husband who does extremely dangerous things and a risk taker. Danielle Kaplan is a speech-language pathologist and movement specialist. She grew up in Johannesburg, South Africa and holds a master's degree in Speech Pathology. She and her husband Steve emigrated to Canada, where she spent twenty years working in acute teaching hospitals, in Neurology, Neurosurgery, and spinal injury. Danielle gained a certification in Pilates and then went on to train further in movement while achieving her Personal Training certification (CanfitPro), Ballet Barre for fitness training and then received her Rehab Exercise Specialization Certification. The mother of two, she lives with her husband Steve and their two fur babies in Toronto, Ontario. I Married A Thrill-Seeker is her first book. When Danielle Kaplan's husband Steve decides to take one last road trip on his BMW R1200GS Enduro, from Toronto, Ontario to near Fairbanks, Alaska, his life changes in an instant. The treacherous stretch of road between Carmacks and Watson Lake in the Yukon called the Campbell Highway was incredibly dangerous in the rain. Steve hit a pothole and crashed-and what follows is a true testament of luck, love, and incredible fortitude as his injuries leave him with a less than one percent survival rate. In this honest, open memoir Danielle Kaplan explores the toll Steve's trip took on her family, his accident and her husband's incredibly long recovery took on her family. As a former speech pathologist, Danielle becomes her husband's greatest ally-fighting by his side the entire time, through every step forward and step back, as Steve regains his health after the tragic accident. From the moment Steve leaves the driveway until the night of the fateful call, Danielle has mixed feelings about the trip. And from the months they spend in the hospital to her husband's eventual recovery, she reveals her truthful, mixed emotions about everything from the life saving measures used to keep him alive to the unbearable decisions she had to make about their family. This heartfelt, raw story contains the essence of the human spirit, and is filled with both determination and love.

This week we sit down with Rebecca Eckler and talk about her latest book and how she manages to be so bold in her work. Anyone in a blended family or thinking about attempting to bring two families together will benefit from this book. Rebecca Eckler’s newest book chronicles the hard truth of what it’s really like to make a blended family. Blissfully Blended Bullshit is a witty, engaging, refreshingly candid chronicle of a modern family’s journey as they blend households.

Lighthearted and intimate, this is an indispensable story about a family determined to make blended splendid, and the juicy truth of what it’s really like behind closed doors in what is rapidly becoming a typical family makeup.
