    tRR #28 Mom Series Episode #7 - Janel * Having a son with special needs and working with the schools & teachers * Sharing custody can be positive

    tRR #28 Mom Series Episode #7 - Janel * Having a son with special needs and working with the schools & teachers * Sharing custody can be positive

    Janel won't hesitate to share a smile or a wave when she sees you - a tip we could all probably do more of.  She is a hair stylist by day, which I am pretty sure gives her a super power of being able to relate and read people quite well.  Then she turns into a chill mom at night that likes to hang out with her husband, two sons, and two cats.  Her family has some unique characteristics to be appreciated and she shares about them and how she stays upbeat about them on this episode.

    tRR #27 Mom Series Episode #6 - Melissa * Animal Lover and Rescuer * Passionate about People and Their Wellness

    Meet Melissa.  Good luck trying to keep up with her, she gets up early and is on the go all day long.   Anything she does, she does with passion and heart. (and a little bit of spiciness, that is super funny.)    She loves all things.  Seriously; she is one of those unique individuals that truly appreciates everything and everyone.  She thrives in nature and you can usually find her and her boys taking care of Mother Nature, helping an animal, or encouraging others.  Which is why we decided to focus on the topics animals and people.    We just kept talking and talking and even still could have.  I am sure you'll be inspired motivated by Melissa.

    tRR #26 Mom Series Episode #5 - Patty * Relationships * Becoming a Morning Person

    tRR #26 Mom Series Episode #5 - Patty * Relationships * Becoming a Morning Person

    I have to thank my daughter for introducing me to Patty.  She discovered and loved Patty's book: A Teen's Guide to Wellness, Purpose and Abundance.  We then got to meet Patty in person at a Young Living's International Grand Convention and Patty has been an inspiration to both of us every since.  Patty definitely fits the role of an optimist and I love it!  Her enthusiasm will brighten anyone's day and she genuinely cares to encourage others.



    There are many topics we could discuss with Patty, but for this episode we decide on building stronger relationships with others, including the teen population and her adventure of turning from a "Night Owl" to a "Morning Person".  Patty has many tools in her toolkit to share and I'm sure you'll find several that will directly benefit you.

    **Clicking Sound - hey, sorry there is a little bit of clicking sound in this episode.  Still working on my technical skills.  (wink, wink)  It doesn't interfere with what is being said though.  All the good stuff can still be heard.

    tRR #25 Mom Series Episode #4 - Vicki * Managing Grief and Loss

    Being the mom of seven kids certainly allows someone the opportunity to learn many things. and grow in many ways.  As a matter of fact, if you add up all cumulative years of her being a mom, Vicki has over 81 years experience under her belt!  Even more amazing, she willing shares things that have worked for her family and things that have not, along with many tips of wisdom along the way.  Vicki picked a topic to discuss that I think a lot of people will benefit from hearing about, but not everyone wants to talk about:  Grief and Loss.  Although the topics of Grief and Loss can be delicate, Vicki shares her very personal story and offers a lot of compassion for others that have gone through the same in a varying capacities.
