Alana says "we ate a mix of Chinese food and Australian mix of food which consisted mainly of meat and potatoes, however, mom never enjoyed cooking.
Alana's mom is warm and fuzzy yet she and her mom didn't talk openly of intimate topics regarding female issues.
Alana has one brother, Adam, three years older, they will always be there for one another. Alana describe's their relationship as "chalk and cheese."
Lesley had studied bio chemical science and worked in hospital labs.
"As a teenager mom was quite studious but also very very social. She has an ability to retain so much information about the people she's met. She inquisitive and interested when she meets someone and can retain all of this information. Lesley is very creative and logical. Lesley enjoyed calligraphy and making things, "it's a nice balance" according to Alana.
Alana explains that her parents were at university with the same group of friends. "Mom was the bad-cop with strict rules, dad was fun to be with," according to my guest. " Lani" is Alana's nickname. Dad went to chiropractic school as an adult. Alana's dad had to get psychiatric help for a while when she was a child, so mom was on her own for a while taking care of the kids. "Dad was ahead of his time in that he openly searched out help on his own. Personal health is very important to him and he wanted professional help and not just to rely on being medicated", recalls Alana.
"My mother is very empathic and very loyal," and being on her own was tough. my grandparents helped a lot but my mother rose to the occasion. Mom says family comes first. I'm sure this was a very tough time for my mother. Both or our parents gave us a very happy and healthy childhood, even with these ups and downs," reflect Bonnemann.
Lesley's the oldest of three children. Lesley and her mother have a very close relationship.
I asked my guest, "If you're having a bad day and just need someone to talk to, is your mom the first one you call? Alana responds, "I would always go to my mom but my mom always gives me the same advice "you'll be alright, you'll be ok, it'll be what it'll be . Before Alana calls her mom, she already knows what her mother's response will be. "There's always that assurance there," continues Alana. Mom can you just validate my feelings. She's always there. She's open to it as well. She doesn't block me out.
I love how Alana responded to my next question regarding her mother.... "This is the story of a woman.....? And this is her response which I love." "This is the story of a woman who loves her family. She is like a mother duck who will put her wings over the people that she cares about and keeps them close to her heart. "Alana lives in Germany and her mother is in Australia and she's always, even from afar, always encouraging that we have a strong bond with all of our family members."
Alana has chosen the emoji of the flamenco/tango dancer to describe her mom-"she's a bit spicy, she got a flare, she's got energy, she got jazz about her." Lesley is very active. She dragon boat peddles and plays Pickleball. "She's quite short but just a lot of energy. She keeps track of all of Alana's friends back in Australia," reflects Alana.
When asked about her career and how is her philosophy of helping women is different from others, Alana says "it all comes down to purpose, perhaps. She believes that if someone is healthy and feels mentally, emotionally and physically sound we have that much more to offer others. "By elevating women to be able to feel well, then they get to impact their life and that impacts other people's lives . There's a wave of change and in perhaps in my own way, changing the world, for the better."
I learned a lot from Alana. Our mind is a powerful thing and we can get pulled off track very easily. You can either go for that chocolate or sugar treat that's calling out to you or perhaps trade that in for a few minutes of meditation. Neither is bad but meditation may be more frustrating, but consider which will bring you more happiness and what are the long term benefits that we can get from doing things that benefit our health?

Henry Woodman, a really interesting entrepreneur and father was wonderful explaining the complexities of his mother's behavior. He and his two siblings had to juggle so many crazy situations that would never have happen in a "normal" family. Henry shares stories of his mother that are truly shocking and unfortunate for any children to have to had to experience. And again, when you take into account what Margo experienced as a child, perhaps one can be more forgiving.
All of that said, Henry loved his mother, yet was her affection genuine? "It's hard to say because regardless of the things she set her children up to do. He says that his mother was very loving and affectionate in spite of asking her children to steal things from stores and then act shocked and surprised when confronted by the store manager, etc. if they got caught.
"As a kid you donāt really realize what was going on-that was kind of messed up", reflects Woodman. " When mom was growing up, the sense of having missed out or being robbed and the victimization thing came through her whole life. She would do whatever she needed to do in order to have the appearance of somebody successful or wealthy. It manifested itself in us looking at the world saying thereās more to it than the superficial part of it. We had horseback riding , tennis, speak multiple languages, it was challenging but also thankful for it all (languages, etc) plus other things that she felt the kids have to have this facade."
Lessons learned by Henry were many including first and foremost, he could have continued on the path of "I need more," I deserve more," etc. But he chose a different path, one not superficially charged, one of morals and doing what's right. What he did learn from his mother is tolerance and resilience. And Henry is so thankful for these gifts.

"She had a really, really good life," says Stephanie about her mother. That said, it was a good life, yet complicated.
As a young girl, Joanie had many friends, and so many were drawn in by her joyful energy, big heart and infectious laugh. Joanie's father owned a women's clothing store and she got to ware the newest designs of dresses and outfits from the shop on a regular basis. She love her father and she love all the beautiful clothes. Unfortunately, Joanie's father died suddenly when she was pregnant with Stephanie. Stephanie believes that her mother never fully recovered from this loss.
In time, Joanie taught her daughter how to nurture female relationships and Stephanie is so thankful for that. Joanie would spend time on the phone speaking with her girlfriends and she was a wonderful letter writer. She often wrote letters and sent care packages to Stephanie when away at camp, etc.
Later on in life, unfortunately Joanie had been misdiagnosed by her doctors, before they started treating her for dementia. Communication eventually became challenging for mother and daughter and Stephanie wanted to figure out a way for both women to be able to communicate. Stephanie started engaging more with the right side or "intuitive" side of her brain in hopes of opening up their connection through mind, body and spirit.
After a long journey, Stephanie was relieved when her mother passed away. Stephanie insists that if she had do it all over again, she wouldn't change a thing. Though it was tough growing up with a mom with mental illness, there was so much love and appreciation between them. Stephanie is also grateful to her father who never wavered with his support, compassion and attention and was always by his wife's side, giving and getting her the best care possible.
It's been many years since Joanie passed and yet Stephanie is in conversation, visual and spiritual connection with her mother on a regular basis. Including the signs that her mother sends via the red cardinal outside the window.
Stephanie is so thankful for her journey with her mother because my guest feels "a really sharp ability to read energy." Stephanie shares "that's part of the lesson of this walk in life. We con't have control of the things we presume to have control over." My guest is so grateful for the "nudges" that she started getting years ago. And even more thankful that she started recognizing and acknowledging these intuitive messages.
She's built a career helping others because of her mother's experience and she's so happy her mother is still a huge part of her life. Stephanie shares "through my channeling gifts, I reconnect people to their soulās wisdom and innate intuition to create a life of their wildest imagining."
Stephanie is asked regularly "how do I know if I have intuitive gives like you"? "My answer is this: we ALL have powerful intuitive gifts. All of us. But we donāt all use these gifts because somewhere along the journey we were taught to mistrust ourselves or fear our gifts. Thatās the bad news. The good news is: you can reclaim your gifts at any time! Your intuition never goes away.
Speaking with Stephanie was so uplifting and a reminder to not ignore the signal or "nudges" as Stephanie refers to the signals or messages we gets from a loved one and/or a higher power.
If you're looking to contact Stephanie regarding sessions, all the correct information is below.

My initial thought was to find information about William Shakespeare's mother, Mary Arden. I was curious as to the role she played or didn't play in her son's life. That search led me to Shakespearian expert and Columbia University English Professor, James Shapiro. His initial responses was, "your podcast will last about 30 seconds because we don't know much about her." That said, he mentioned that he and his brother Michael, also a professor at Columbia University (Graduate School of Journalism), would be interested in sharing stories about their mother who had also been a teacher. Both brothers agree that their mother "was the greatest teacher ever."
Unfortunately Lorraine had a very unhappy childhood. She was her father's daughter. The youngest of three children with two older brothers, Lorraine and her mom didn't see eye to eye. Therefore Lorraine lacked self confidence when at home, confronted by her mother. Out of this fractured relationship, Lorraine found a world full of fantasy and boundless imagination with her students. James says " mom was a pathological fantasist. She believed that every child should have a dream." "Because of her unhappy childhood, continues Michael, she decided to recreate the world by sheer force of imagination and will."
Mrs. Shapiro devoted her life to her family- her husband, Herb, of 65 years, her children and her students. She always told her children that they were accomplished and that they were going to succeed. That didn't mean that she didn't push them to work harder and do better- perhaps as Michael says "she sent mixed signals sometimes."
During our conversation, James and Michael share what a brilliant baker their mother was and how hard she worked to have fresh baked individual goodies ready for them each morning before running out the door to teach. However, when it came to main meals/dinner entrees, let's just say that wasn't her strong point.
Lorraine was a teacher before she met her future husband. Once married, Lorraine's mother pressured her to quit while she was starting a family, insisting that is was completely unacceptable for her to work and raise a family at the same time. It was 11 years before Lorraine got back to the classroom. Something that her son's know was very hard for their mother, not because she didn't love her family, it was overwhelmingly clear that their mother needed to be in the classroom with her first graders. "It wasn't accidental that she was happiest with little kids, first graders especially. They know how to dream, they know how to play and they are perfectly happy to buy into her fantasy world," says James."
Both sons love teaching and confess that they are the same kind of teacher that their mother was. They both take her into the classroom with them each day. They adore their mother, her passion and her spark and speak regularly of her magic, wisdom and charm. "What she represented was strength" continues Michael emphatically. Lorraine may have been petite, but her dreams were big.
James Shapiro-his work has made it to the NY Times Top 10 Books of 2020 list. He's a professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University, distinguished authority on William Shakespeare, Former Board Member, now Govenor of Royal Shakespeare Company and he is the Shakespeare Scholar in Residence at the Public Theatre in New York.
Michael Shapiro-Professor at Columbia Univ Graduate School of Journalism, He's written for newspapers in New Jersey and Chicago as well as magazine publications, such as Sports Illustrated, The New Yorker, The NY Times Magazine and more. the author of Bottom of the Ninth and The Last Good Season: Brooklyn, the Dodgers, and Their Final Pennant Race Together plus author of 5 previous books.
"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. You'll be amazed at what the responses are.

Jackie Dubrovich and I had a wonderful conversation about her families historical journey to to America. We also took a few minutes to share our similarities. Interestingly enough, both of us have stories to share of an Olympic experience, but from different perspectives. It was fun to reminisce about my experience at the 1980, XIII Olympic Winter Games in Lake Placid, New York. These particular winter games are remembered for the U.S. Men's Ice Hockey Team's "Miracle on Ice" gold-medal run plus Eric Hieiden's five gold medals in speed skating and so much more. I was a college student at the time and was hired to work in the transportation Dept and drive the athletes and country representatives to and from the Olympic Village into downtown Lake Placid for events and medal ceremonies. Lake Placid is a beautiful town nestled in the middle of the New York Adirondack Mountains. Go for a visit if you ever have an opportunity. It's absolutely beautiful.
Ms. Dubrovich couldn't have been more gracious and happy to share stories of her mother and her mom's experience traveling by herself to America from Belarus, to marry the love of her life and become an American Citizen. Just think of the bravery it took for a young woman to board a flight and head into the unknown. She didn't speak english. She had one suitcase with her possessions and fifty dollars in her pocket.
Valentina, according to her daughter is one of the hardest working moms she knows. Valentina worked in a Russian food store before coming to the United States. To this day she still works regularly and even on her days off, according to her daughter, "she still works hard." Jackie recalls her mother studying, from books she took out from the local library, for her test to become an American Citizen. Jackie and her parents spoke Russian to one another at home and with other family members. Jackie even continued her Russian studies at Columbia University in New York City . As a first generations American , she completed her undergraduate degree in Psychology, Human Rights and Russian Literature and Culture in 2016.
Valentina could never have imagined in her wildest dreams that her daughter would become and Olympic Athlete, let alone a Gold Medalist in Fencing. Jackie and her parents had big dreams and expectations for their daughter, eldest of two children. At times, Jackie definitely felt the pressure to be the best of the best. She regularly recognized her parents high expectations for both she and her younger brother, also a professional athlete. But Jackie got to the point where she had to be able to handle her experiences and career as a professional on her own terms. As a family, they all learned how to communicate better and Jackie's parents learned to step back a little bit to let her handle her trajectory.
Jackie and her partner, Brian Kaneshige, have opened a new fencing facility in Orange, New jersey called "Polaris Fencing Center." Both Jackie and Brian wanted to be able to give back to the next generation of kids who may not be able to afford years of training and expenses, yet are passionate about a career in Fencing.
Valentina couldn't be more proud of her daughter and her accomplishments. After the pandemic and the 2020 Olympics, Jackie had a tough time. Not really sure if she was interested in training for another four years for the next Olympics. "In Eastern European culture, it's not very common to talk about your feelings, but my parents did a really good job, to know what to say when I was low." Both parents supported her then as well as now.

"Dorothy" was the name that the institution assigned to this new born baby girl that had been dropped off at this facility by the unmarried biological mother. At this time, there was unprecedented prejudice against illegitimate children and unwed mothers. This facility was government run and theoretically a highly regarded home for foundlings from the ages of 5 to 12 years old. At which point they were to have trained the children who were not returned to their families, with skills in order for them to be placed in homes as house maids, servants, etc. The environment that shaped Dorothy was brutal. Justine shares stories of her mom's experience of being pushed in the pool and held under the water before she even knew how to swim. Often her mother and other children were locked up in cupboards or closets, in the dark with no food or water for days on end. Physical, emotional and psychological abuse certainly took a toll on this young girls life. One that she never was fully able to recover from.
Justine, shares the stories of her experience growing up in California with her mother and father. Dorothy presented as sophisticated, upper class, a well educated woman. All that Justine knew was that her mother was of British Royalty. My guest grew up taking lessons for this and that, and yet never once met any of her so called "English Royalty" relatives. Her home was absolutely beautiful, the finest of everything imaginable, except perhaps, happiness.
On Justine's journey to retrace her mother's steps and visiting the institution, which now exists as a museum, she was able to see all the letters that her maternal grandmother had been writing on a regular basis, to the institution inquiring about her beautiful baby girl. In response, the administration would respond with a non committal letter with very little information.
Dorothy suffered tremendously from the abuse she had endured all those years. It's so unfortunate that it was kept a secret until after her death.
"The Secret Life of Dorothy Soames" is a brilliant memoir, one of which should help us use this experience in order to help others struggling with emotional and mental illness.
Justine had to distance herself from her mom and all the years of living with someone with mental illness, before she could read her mother's life story. "By reading my grandmother's letters, I realized that there was a trait that my mother had, my mother had and that I have and that's tenacity, " says Cowan proudly. "Plowing through difficulties and not giving up."

Letting go of the busyness, was a gift Jennifer gave to herself.
Her grandmother was always keeping busy as was her mom, but Jennifer wasn't happy just doing things that she didn't really want to do.
My guest wanted to satisfy her interests of both the right and left sides of her brain. Becoming an engineer seemed like a logical career choice because her father was an engineer. Twenty years later, she realized she was bored and needed more. She retired and completed her Masters degree in Industrial Design. When Jennifer mentioned to her mom that she may pursue an architecture degree, her mother said "don't waste your time."
Jennifer's grandfather started having heart complications when her mom was just 9 years old. Jennifer is certain this is where and when the anxiety issues started for her mother. Jennifer's grandmother was also anxious and worried about her husband's health. Both women were always ready for the next emergency. Waiting for the other shoe to drop. Anxiety and stress can easily be passed down from generation to generation. In understanding her family's serious circumstances at the time, Jennifer felt it was now time to stop the cycle of anxiety and being busy just for the sake of being busy.
When intuition suggests something has to change, it's a good idea to listen to that silent voice. Jennifer took advantage of her downtime during the pandemic to reflect, plan, try new ways, analyze, stop, evaluate and try again.
Her result is her book Natural Reflectors.
Natural Reflectors: Moving From Burnout to Engagement by Phasing Reflection into Actions (Natural Reflectors Series Book 1)

Gerry Strain is a former Football player in Scotland. He played Football ( known as Soccer in America) for many many years and eventually he had to come to the understanding that he wasn't going to rise to the professional level that he aspired to for many reasons. He feels it had a lot to do with not being from the proper socio-economic class. Eventually, Gerry became an agent and now he's the Director of Hamilton Academical Football Club.
When Gerry first contacted me, he sent me a list of women that have impacted his life. First and foremost, his mum and nana. Then he went on to mention his wife, Jennifer, his aunt Marie, his daughter, Grace and several co-workers and employers. Gerry is such a gracious Scott. Considering his experience growing up, Gerry shares stories of how his relationship with his mom was stained. He missed having a father that was a main stay in his life. That said, Catherine was on her own and was trying to do her best. Strain offered this as a description of his mother, " mom's biggest strengths were also her biggest weaknesses." Gerry says he has this same instinct, "the generosity and giving aspect."
Gerry says that his mother taught him to watch out for not only his brother, but for his friends, family and neighbors. Though Gerry didn't have much, there was always someone in their neighborhood that was lonely and in need, if not food, at least companionship. Loyalty is one of the many gifts his mum taught him. "I have the same circle of people around me as I've had all my life. They're in that circle because I know they love me and care about me," continues Gerry. "But my own personal aspirations are to be as financially secure as I possibly can and earn as much as I can. I like to do a lot of positive things. I don't want to be wealthy to be the wealthiest guy in the room. I want to be wealthy so I can make a difference to someone." One of Gerry's favorite sayings is "your network is your networth."
Nana, whose name was Josephine, played a different role in Gerry's life than his mum did. "She played a mothering role and I could tell her anything," according to Gerry. "I could have robbed a bank and committed fifteen murders and my Nana would have said I was innocent." My guest describes his Nana as a great woman, very strong, vary staunch in her beliefs and convictions. She taught both boys about loyalty, and what you should expect back and where you draw the lines.

In time, Tina became "the fixer" in the household. The fights and yelling was too much for Tina and she also took on the role of being her younger sister's protector. She felt that she needed to calm everyone down most importantly for herself to feel safe.
Feeling abandoned and neglected early on in her life, my guest's mother, was a highly sensitive child and she didn't get as much attention as she needed as a child. The family deemed her "the neurotic child." It seemed as though the only thing that Leilani's family seemed to valued was her beauty. Leilani became a swimsuit model as a young teen and was basically on her own. This took place between, 1953-54 and she experienced many advances from men as one would imagine and a reminder that this was way before the "Me Too" movement.
Tina had to put up some of her own boundaries between she, her sister and her mom. The triggers of infighting in the family was not where Tina wanted to keep her heart.
Later on in life, as Leilani was starting to suffer from dementia, Tina was able to spend three weeks with her mother, visiting her and helping take care of her. Tina says their common love that they so embraced when Tina was a baby, was so present during those visits. None of the terrible threatening or fearful tendencies showed their face and Tina is so grateful for that special time to rekindle their relationship as though nothing had ever gotten between them.
Tina made reference to a poem by Dorothy Lae Nolte in our conversation. Please find it below. It's still stands strong today regarding principles we try and teach our children and the principles that we hope many children never have to experience.
Children Learn What They Live
By Dorothy Law NolteIf children live with criticism, they learn to condemn. If children live with hostility, they learn to fight.
If children live with ridicule, they learn to be shy. If children live with shame, they learn to feel guilty.
If children live with encouragement, they learn confidence. If children live with tolerance, they learn to be patient.
If children live with praise, they learn to appreciate. If children live with acceptance, they learn to love.
If children live with approval, they learn to like themselves. If children live with honesty, they learn truthfulness.
If children live with security, they learn to have faith in themselves and others.
If children live with friendliness, they learn the world is a nice place in which to live.

Beth was raised in Worcester, MA and she was the youngest of three children. Unfortunately, she was born seventeen years after her second oldest sister. She was basically raised as an only child and unfortunately didn't get much attention from her parents. Alan's grandparents felt that she was a pretty blond haired, blue eyed young lady and that she'd get married and start a family. They never instilled any ideals about higher education and basically left her to fend for herself.
Well, she and her husband did fall in love and started a loving family but then her dreams were crushed when she suddenly lost the love of her life and the father of her two children in the car accident.
Beth did her best to encourage her children to shoot for the stars, aim high and big, go to college, many more doors will open for you. Alan says he's so grateful to his mom for "teaching him to aim high. She'd say you'll have choices. She taught me to care about school." My guest completed his Engineering degree at WPI, Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Though very successful, he felt as though he wasn't satisfied.
At this crossroads of his life, Alan felt as though he wasn't "as focused on the inside-out, I was focused on the outside-in and I didn't realize it." Loosing his father at 2 1/2-3 years old was crushing for the entire family and says "loosing a father very young, it takes a lot of humility to admit that you need hope. Hope inspires others to better their best."
One thing that Alan struggled with is that he didn't feel that his mother's advice matched her actions. "No one ever really led by example. So I've invested the last ten years, time and effort, on my own self improvement." Alan is now the CEO and Podcast Co-host of Next Level University as well as the Co Host of The Conscious Couples Podcast. Alan is a business and life coach. He'll help you stay focused, track your progress and achieve your best life.

Throughout my conversation with Jordan, she spoke of what a loving family she's a part of. So much open conversation, a vast view of politics and current events going on in the world. Jordan is quick to point out that "my entire life I was raised in such an unapologetically feminist household. Both parents are/were feminists and both parents believed in female leadership." So it's no real surprise that Jordan is now helping women get elected in the House and/or Senate, that have never elected a female candidate before.
Jordan describes her mother as strong and loving, very protective and supportive. "Both of my parents were so generous with their time. They made it to everything, (school activities, etc.) and they were so generous with how much they shared with us about their lives."
Now that Jordan is a mother, it has unlocked a new understanding of her mom's amazing role of keeping she and her sisters safe. "Mom was so gently, gracious, poised, the classiest person I know. Very put together, calm presence, very natural, always made us feel very loved," shares Zaslow.
There's so much more to Jordan's past and future. Hope you enjoy the listen. Find out more about Jordan Zaslow with the links below.

At 50, Julie's mom got divorced, became a real estate agent and started a new life.
Julie Campbell says, " we are more than our fears." And she knows first hand that it's possible to move on from your past and move on from your limiting beliefs. Julie is a New York actor and founder of Center Stage Connections, where she uses her acting background and tools to help others "move beyond limiting beliefs, communicate with authenticity and presence , speak with courage and clarity and make connections with colleagues and clients that build relationships, grow your business and create the work and life that you imagine."
Julie has a wonderful role model in her mother. In her youth, Liz was an avid athlete with a passion for basketball. Liz, as a youth, was a softball and basketball coach. She was a proof reader and typist long before computers, designer and seamstress, loved to cook and dance and a self taught handyman. My guest learned from her mother to not let anyone get in your way and never give anyone the ability to control or demoralize you. Liz did attempt to leave her husband in order to protect her children, yet realized that she wouldn't be able to offer her children a financially stable future and higher education because she was a stay at home mom at the time. Early on in her career, Liz had been a well loved nurse that became very involved in her children's lives.
According to Julie, the basis of Center Stage Connections is " building a business that is deeply rooted in supporting others to step into their story-at work at home and in life." Because of her experience growing up in a volatile environment, Julie has so much to offer others struggling to find their truth, helping them work through their own origin stories and create their own future.

Sarah is a writer and this is the first time her work has been published in the New York Times. the link is below.
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/23/style/modern-love-looking-for-my-mother.html
This is an unusual love story where a Pakistani woman proposed to her lover which was culturally not the norm. They were both young and very much in love. Unfortunately, Kaukab, translated from Arabic, means "star" or "constellation" was diagnosed with Leukemia a few years after their daughter's were born. Sarah's parents went to London for a bone marrow transplant.
This was the beginning of tearing the family apart. The girls moved in with family members in Saudi Arabia, while their dad stayed in London.
Her father was distraught and couldn't even tell the girls that their mother had passed away until days later. They did not attend their mother's funeral, though they were close by. The family members blamed Sarah's father for Kaukab's death.
This and more lead to Sarah blaming herself for her mother's death. She believes that her mom was trying to teach her to let go, but either way Sarah has spent a good part of her life blaming herself for her mother's death.
Sarah has very few personal possessions to remember her mother by. She has a card that her mother wrote her when in the hospital, that she still has today. Her mother had hopes of seeing her girls again but fate had a different plan. And not too long ago, Sarah was able to bring home two embroideries that her mother had made, many years ago and they hang in Sarah's home today.
Sarah's relatives have told her, that her mother handled her illness very eloquently, she didn't give into despair and she accepted her illness and her death with grace.
My guest has plans for writing fiction, short stories, kids books and more.

This is a story of a woman who didn't realize she had neurological conditions that were perhaps altering her abilities until she was in her forties. You ask how is that possible? Well, Sadie thought that everyone was just like her. She assumed everyone else's brain worked just like hers. Her biggest cheerleader was her grandmother, who since Sadie was a little girl, has catalogued everything her granddaughter has written or drawn. Adele says of her grandmother "she is perfect and just brimming with fantastic folksy wisdom."
"Do I Know You, A Faceblind Reporter's Journey into the Science of Sight, Memory, and Imagination," is Sadie's recently released book and there's a wealth of information for anyone who thinks perhaps they are alone in the discovery of being neurodivergent. Scientists believe that these types of conditions may actually give you an edge as an artist.
One of the many gifts of having a poor memory, Sadie mentioned, is that she lives in the moment. Her grandmother "felt comforted by her self expression and it helped her make meaning out of the chaos of life," according to my guest.
Sadie has a condition call SDAM, which stands for-SEVERELY DEFFICIENT AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL MEMORY.
Sadie's videos on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=sadie+Dingfelder
4 RARE NEUROLOGICAL CONDITIONS.
FACEBLIND (prosopagnosia-(purĀ·suhĀ·pagĀ·nowĀ·zhuh, is a condition that makes it difficult to recognize faces, even though vision is normal,
STEREOBLINDNESS- The inability to see in 3D,
APHANTASIA- (AYE-FAN-TA-SHUH). The inability to form mental images of real or imaginary people and places, the inability to actually conjure up a mental image ā or āpictureā something ā in one's mind.
* AMBLYOPIA- (AM-BLEE-O PIA) (also called lazy eye) is a type of poor vision that usually happens in just 1 eye but less commonly in both eyes.
STRABISMUS-(struhĀ·bizĀ·muhs) Abnormal alignment of the eyes; the condition of having a squint.

My guest grew up in Chicopee, MA, a mill town, textiles/paper, with hard working moms and dads just trying to provide for their families. The large immigrant community was trying to develop new skills while developing new ties with their new neighbors. Ken's father's family was from Quebec, Canada and his mom, Cindy, her family immigrated from Scotland.
There's quite a bit to this story that Ken shared with me and I'm not going to reveal all of it other than saying it was at times very difficult to navigate. When things are left better off not spoken about, that leaves lots of unanswered questions.
Ken was often made to feel that he was the special son, the baby of the family, the youngest boy. His 2 older sisters were always there to help out but Ken definitely got his fair share of attention. However, there were 2 other brothers that Ken tells us about in our interview. It's heartbreaking, yet at times maybe one can understand why the decision was made so many years ago.
One of the hardest challenges for Ken as a young boy, was that he "didn't want to be the cause of any more pain for my parents. I grew up trying to do all the right things. My parents were so forgiving." Yet there was always the underlying feeling that "he and his sisters were born to fill the void left by his brothers."
I thought that this was overwhelming and exhausting for a little boy but Ken "thinks that this gave him a real purpose in life. "I turned myself into a person who always did my best, not a perfectionist. Mom just wanted us to do our best." Ken never cut a class, didn't drink till he was of legal age and never got into trouble because he hoped he was helping his parents.
When Ken started working as a producer for the NBA (National Basketball Association), he basically walked through those doors as a lucky, young ambitious kid. Twenty nine years passed and he walked out as a talented, resolute adult with so many questions to answer. He was determined to write about his life and his family and it's all captured in "You're Gonna Miss Me Some Day."
Robert and David were the answer to lots of those questions. He couldn't turn back time but he has them to thank for giving him clarity and peace.
Hope you enjoy our conversation.

As a licensed Marriage and Family Counselor, author and public speaker, Roya Dedeaux hears lots of 'mom' stories. The one she's most proud of is the story of her own mother, Pam. Pam and her siblings as well as her mother, Roya's grandmother, were all educators. Education and learning was always a topic of concern whenever they got together. So when Roya's mom said she wanted to 'unschool' Roya and her sisters, the girls were all very confused.
Roya was just finishing up 4th grade and mom said "I'm not sending you back to school next year." Well you can imagine the confusion amongst the siblings, especially Roya who was going to be starting 5th grade.
Mom was determined to make this work and pleaded, " just trust me for 3 months, if you don't like it, you can go back to school."
I am not an expert by any means, but what I do know is that 'Unschooling' is all about encouraging your child or children to pursue their passions and follow their dreams, whatever they may be. For example, if your child loves animals or marine life, study animals and marine life-take them to zoos and aquariums, do projects-indulge them in their interests. And the same is true for any interest or field of study. "Supporting your children's interests, helps promote better mental health and fulfilled relationships," believes Ms. Dedeaux.
This project of unschooling worked extremely well for my guest. Roya started taking college classes at the age of 13-always taking classes that she was interested in and she had full support from both her father and her mother. She says this was " a celebration of doing things differently, always keeping an open mind about possibilities."
This process encourages and engages kids because these are topics of interest not mandatory subjects of study where tests are required.
The bottom line is that it requires full attention from the parent and your children are happy. Make every adventure and trip a hands on learning experience-as though learning through osmosis.
Roya had no interest in going back to school after a short time and says "my mom gave me to myself forever with her decision to unschool us."
With many many years of higher education, Roya and her sisters are all very happy with the lessons their mom taught them. Roya refers to her mom as "a pioneer," and is so grateful to her mom for the tough decisions that she made when the girls were young.
"Connect With Courage-Practical Ways to Release Fear and Find Joy In The Places Your Kids Take You," is Ms. Dedeaux's most recent book.
I hope you enjoy this episode of SHLTMM.

As a teen, Sam neglected to really connect with his mother. Unfortunately, Eleanor passed away at a very young. In time, as a journalist, Sam realized he had the skills to research his mom's past and get to know her from the beginning. In "Who She Was, My Search For My Mother's Life," you'll find the story of a beautiful young woman who had so many hopes and dreams and life, WWII, the Holocaust and more just got in the way.
Eleanor had everything going for her. She was smart, beautiful, creative and she had many friends. She graduated high school at 16 as the valedictorian of her class. The skies the limit for Eleanor. But life didn't really turn out the way she had hoped or planned.
Her parent's had immigrated from Poland and settled in the Bronx, NY. When the Great Depression, WWII and The Holocaust turned her family's life upside down, Eleanor had to put her dreams aside and get a job which where hard to come by. Her father hadn't been very good at holding down steady work, so Eleanor was the most likely to fill those shoes as the main bread winner for the family.
There's so much more to this story, so I hope you enjoy hearing it through Sam's words and his voice.

Did your mother ever suggest you take a 'SeaMester'-a semester off from college to sail to the caribbean and keep a journal? Or maybe your mom convinced your dad to quit his job and jump in the car for a once in a lifetime family vacation to Alaska? Or how about, forgo Christmas in order to participate in an anti Vietnam war protest in DC?
Most likely not, but Tim Wacker's mother did . Ronnie Wacker, a woman of unfailing generosity and love for her family, lived life by example. Tim has many remarkable stories to share about his mother and all that she had to give. Sometimes we look back with regrets but Ronnie loved life and always grabbed for the gold ring.
"Both my parents showed astonishing poise in the days before they died. It was the last and possibly most important lesson I learned from them", says their son.
Pulitzer Prize Journalist, Tim Wacker, a has made his parents proud.
"Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall" song sung by The Inkspots and Ella Fitgerald, Lyrics by Allen Roberts.
"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. You'll be amazed at what the responses are.

Rachel's father was a prominent doctor and pastor in Brazil. Unfortunately, Rachel's dad passed away when she was only 9 months old. After a few short years, Theresa, Rachel's mother, finds herself moving to the US on behalf of a sponsorship from a Christian church mainly because of her diseased husband's reputation.
The two women relied heavily on the church community for support, including everything from meals, clothing, babysitting, etc.
While mom was trying to continue her education and hold down three jobs, Rachel often was being cared for by neighbors and fellow church members. However, Rachel had a tough time growing up in a community that had held her father at such high esteem. She felt that they only loved her/Rachel, because she was her father's daughter. Rachel rebelled against the church quite a bit because she didn't really know where she fit in.
As Rachel says, "my mother was the queen of tough love," so when Rachel was rebellious, her mom held stead fast and tried to be patient.
In time, Rachel came to understand the true meaning of faith and found it extremely useful in time of crisis. Her mother was her rock and during this horrific experience, she never once saw her faith falter.
As you listen to this unimaginable story, one that no family should ever experience, you'll hear Rachel say over and over again how faith and hope were an integral part of how she and her family endured this experience.
Rachel has become an Advocate/Ambassador for families victimized by Family Court.
Rachel has a bachelor's degree in communication and an MBA from Pepperdine University, Malibu, CA. Rachel's book "Fractured Hope: A Mother's Fight For Justice," will be released in 2022.
