    In this powerful and insightful episode, we sit down with Kelly Dyckman and Andrea Cernero who co-founded Haven for Healing, a psychotherapy practice in Shrewsbury, New Jersey, sharing the journey of how collaboration, clarity of roles, and a shared mission turned their dream into reality. They open up about what it truly takes to build a mental health practice from the ground up, how they identified their individual strengths, and why coming together as partners allowed them to better serve their community. From business alignment to trust and communication, their story offers inspiration for women considering entrepreneurship or partnership-based ventures. The conversation also dives deep into the mental health challenges facing today’s children and teens, including anxiety, social pressures, emotional regulation, and the lasting effects of recent societal changes.

    Episode 95: Creating New Worlds for Young Readers: Author Kristie Ferrugiaro on The Saga of the Selenixies, Fantasy, Friendship & Resilience

    In this imaginative and inspiring episode, we sit down with emerging author Kristie Ferrugiaro, creator of the fantasy adventure series The Saga of the Selenixies, a captivating new world written to empower young readers through storytelling. Kristie introduces us to the Selenixies — mystical beings once united by an ancient crystal fortress until its destruction sent them scattering across different worlds. Separated from one another, stripped of their powers, and challenged by dark forces, the Selenixies must complete seven trials to restore their strength, rebuild trust in the Universe, and reunite before time runs out. Kristie shares how the story was inspired during COVID, as she watched her three sons create incredible mythical worlds at home using Tonka trucks, toys, and pure imagination. What began as imaginative play during an uncertain time became the foundation for a richly layered fantasy series rooted in creativity, connection, and resilience. More than just a fantasy novel, The Saga of the Selenixies explores powerful themes of teamwork, friendship, resilience, self-belief, and perseverance — showing young readers that the trials they face in life help shape who they become. Kristie also discusses her creative process, how she builds immersive worlds for children, and why stories that highlight cooperation and empowerment are more important than ever. This episode is perfect for parents, teachers, librarians, young readers, and aspiring authors looking for meaningful children’s fantasy books that blend adventure with emotional growth. Kristie’s work reminds us that we are strongest when we support one another — on the page and in real life.
