episode 32: Raped by her father an incest survivor who was in foster care, in and out of her home and abused even after she was married, checking herself into an acute psychiatric hospital - with Nancy Allen
Nancy Allen, from Georgia by way of Massachusetts, is a father-daughter incest survivor. Her story moved me literally to tears in this interview.
Physically and emotionally abused from early childhood, Nancy was briefly mandated into a kinship foster care placement by social services at age 14, a year after the abuse turned sexual. This removal and related court ordered “punishment” of therapy made Nancy feel that she was as equally at fault as her father...

Kellye and I discuss navigating parenting, divorce, and having a business. Pregnant right out of high school, Kellye remained in a dysfunctional marriage because she didn't know any different. Until she did. Her story is remarkable and she openly discusses being with a narcissist, raising powerful women and how she moved on...
episode 33: Playboy model 7 times who went through domestic violence, explains the stigma behind Playboy models, talks therapy and not getting breast implants - with Jasmin Shojai
Jasmin is an internationally published model and upcoming actress. I am so proud she shares her story of domestic violence and loved learning about her modeling career and discuss Playboy and the stigma vs her experience. She told me "after you fold a piece of paper and flatten it out, it may still be a piece of paper but it will never be the same" and that's what it's like with abuse. She hated feeling weak or anyone else feeling that way...
episode 34: 9 minutes, 3 times a day to manifest after a trauma-induced illness and getting through Hashimoto's Disease - with Maria Aparis
Maria was so great about discussing mind, body, spirit, that it takes 40 days to stop a habit, how she takes 9 minutes, 3 times a day to manifest and her trauma-induced illness. She is in the infant stages of creating non-profit rescuing victims of being sex-trafficked. After struggling with symptoms for several years, she was near death, broke but not broken and discovered she had Hashimoto's Disease. Now, she is living her most amazing, thriving life...

I had so much fun with Lisa! We discussed not feeling good enough as a child, although she tried to be more "perfect". Later in life, that feeling rose it's head again when she had the first lawsuit against her, and more so with the second lawsuit of 100 million dollars that involved 11 people on her team she cared about like family...

episode 37: Married and desperate to leave to starting a new life and teaching her way through grief, pain, isolation of single parenting to helping others navigate divorce - with Sacheen Mobley
I adored this interview! From married and desperate to get from Washington State to living on Long Island, NY with her son to start a new life, she started writing, vlogging, and teaching her way through grief, pain, the isolation of single motherhood, and every other bag that wants to pack itself on the trip from married to divorced...
episode 38: Coming out as a lesbian in high school made it easier to find strength when she was diagnosed with a progressive neuromuscular disease she watched her Mom die from - with Leslie Krongold
Leslie and I discussed how she "came out" in high school, which set the stage for her being a strong woman who could handle what life dished out. Her Mom was diagnosed with a genetic condition in 1990 and passed away in 1992 at the age of 55, with brain and lung cancer, so there was never clear information for Leslie to fully understand the genetic condition. This genetic disease is a progressive neuromuscular disease and Leslie was diagnosed in her mid-30's...

episode 41: A financial planner with ease of working with money, so she learned how to help others with money behaviors and launched her business - with Christine Teh
When it comes to finances, Christine doesn't think she has really struggled. Some people have gifts in certain things and she's just naturally great with money. That's how she became a finance coach since there are not a lot of people in her area who want to teach people about money. They care most about people who already have investable assets. Christine wanted to learn about money and manage it herself...
