43: His Plan is For You with Brittany McGregor
I am so happy to introduce you to my sweet friend, Brittany McGregor, on episode 43 of Talk with Tori!
Brittany shares many experiences through her life that have shaped who she is. We walk through her journey of being raised by her grandparents, infertility, miscarriage, and dealing with social anxiety. She is reminded of memories of her grandmother and the impact that she had on her life. Infertility, PCOS, and miscarriage can be very difficult, and she discusses what she experienced. Social anxiety is something everyone deals with in some way, and she talks about how this has affected her life. Brittany is open about how life may not always look picture-perfect, but there is always a plan and purpose when we keep the faith.
Brittany has had many adventures that have made her the woman that she is, so I hope you listen to be encouraged that life always brings blessings along the way and you are not alone.

39: Words Are Never Forgotten with Grace Drouet
I am pumped to introduce you to the spunky and caring, Grace Drouet, on episode 39 of Talk with Tori!
Grace Drouet shares the importance of being yourself, and why we need to speak the good that we see in others. Grace and I share personal stories of comments people have made over the years that have been hurtful to us that we have never forgotten. It is a gut check that sarcasm and words we say can affect others throughout their lives. Since we live in a negative world, Grace encourages us to see the good in others, check on others, and not let our insecurities get the best of us.
Every single one of us has been told something that really hurt our feelings and/or that affected our life. This episode is the best reminder of why we must speak positive words to everyone we come in contact with.

38: In My Sissy's Wheelchair with Abbey Benjamin
I am honored to introduce you to my KD sister, Abbey Benjamin, on episode 38 of Talk with Tori!
Abbey Benjamin shares her journey of parenting her daughter with a rare genetic disorder and epilepsy. She is passionate and advocates normalizing disabilities and illness in everyday life, and creating an inclusive environment for all. Her daughter requires total care, but it has not stopped her from enjoying inclusive settings that every child wants to experience. She opens up about the special bond between her son and daughter, and the importance of exposing children to various environments. She has a book series called Benjamin Books and recently released her first book, In My Sissy’s Wheelchair, in hopes that her books teach others about inclusion, disabilities, and opportunities for a fulfilled life for all.
She paints a beautiful picture of how each person deserves normalcy in their lives, but it is up to each of us to do our part.
