LB @ S3E40 Samara  was born in in Baltimore, MD and lived in Jacksonville, Fla. till she was  25. At that point, Samara moved to Northwest North Carolina.

At a young age, Samara envisioned her life quite differently, especially in the kitchen. This is where the story begins....

"Marilyn didn't talk about her childhood very much because she doesn't have much that's positive to share, continues Samara. "When she was being raised, she was the product of what would be considered an illegitimate relationship. She was treated very much like the black sheep and the role that they found for her in the family was basically as  something of a servant. She was always cooking and cleaning up after everybody. And over the years, she says she started making food for the family when she was seven. Over the years, she developed her kraft and honed her techniques and  developed an actual love of her process."

My guest says that her mother was a rebellious teenager in the early 1940's. Marilyn's mother, Samara's grandmother, did not have a true  presence in her daughter's life.

"To say that she was emotionally unavailable is pretty accurate," reflects Samara about her mom.  "Why are you crying, it's not going to bring them back" is what Marilyn would say to her daughter if she was sad and crying about loosing someone."

Samara was drawn to her mom's passion of cooking. At the drop of a hat there'd be anywhere from 10 or more guests for dinner. Unfortunately, Samara would serve as the dish washer and cleaner and not an assistant to the chef. 

Samara remembers distinctly her mom prepping food for the holidays. "Her Passover Seders, were the meals that stand out to this day. It was because they were never less than an elaborate affair. She'd start cooking days in advance to make the chopped liver and stick it in the fridge and make the Gefilte fish  from scratch, you know,  it was an ordeal, every year." 

Today, the relationship is strained between mother and daughter.  Marilyn was a stay at home mom and  critically ill throughout Marilyn's life.  Mom has been bedridden for five years. Both parents are medical professionals but as Marilyn says, "they both hold their cards very close."

Samara loves her mom. She says "my mom would give you the shirt off her back, she's was always very generous and a bit of a philanthropist." Despite their differences, Samara truly cares about her mom.

Samara's mother is very generous and giving and really a philanthropist with hopes and desires to help others succeed. Despite their differences and challenges in their relationship, Samara truly loves her mother.

Samara's current business -"Brew Naturals."  It's all about Elderberries and introducing the local community and retail  and online sales to the variety of snacks, honey, beer, treats, etc that she's created. Plus she loves collaborating with local businesses including breweries to a chocolatier, local creamery, etc. Hearing Samara talk about her Elderberry Apple Butter just makes my mouth water.

In Samara's words:

"I am a maker of gourmet elderberry products based in WNC. While nearly everyone familiar with elderberry comes to it by way of health and wellness, I'm endeavoring to change the conversation by highlighting its culinary applications. In this pursuit I have developed recipes using my elderberry syrup and had a number of collaborations with regional businesses from cafes/restaurants, creameries/chocolatiers, and even bars/breweries."

LB @ S3E39 Lynda Huffman left the corporate world after decades of working in medical sales. At this point in her life she wanted to concentrate on what made her happy -interior design. For over 30 years, she'd been designing and decorating on the side and now she's created the "Let's Decorate App" to help anyone and everyone have an easier time at what can be an overwhelming task-fixing up their own home.  Lynda will help you every step of the way.

Lynda said that her story was complicated and in fact it truly is. I'll do my best in filling in the details.  

Lynda's parents were in their teens when they met and realized that Carolyn, Lynda's biological mother, was pregnant. They married, then shortly before the baby was born, her father was sent to Vietnam. 

Subsequently, once dad was oversees, Carolyn was considered an unfit mother and lost custody of her two year old daughter.  At that point, Lynda's grandmother was granted custody.  Within a year Lynda was kidnapped from her grandmother's home by her mom and brought her daughter to Louisiana.  One night, Lynda was left under the care of an underage babysitter while her mother went to work. Unfortunately, Lynda had a terrible fever and the babysitter and her family brought her to the hospital. The doctors told them that Lynda had 103 fever and Rubella. A missing child report was filed and they brought Lynda back to her grandmother's care.  

Lynda's father was summoned back to the US from Vietnam in order to handle the divorce and make sure his daughter was  safe and sound and then sent  back to fight in the war.  Two years passed and he eventually married Lynda's 'step mother'. The couple was married for 40 years. Lynda prefers to not give a name to her step mother and I'm sure you'll understand as you hear more of the story.   

Lynda knows now that her step mother was extremely jealous of her.  Lynda also knows that her step-mother came from a very dysfunctional family and had a very abusive childhood.  "She was a constant source of real torment for me. All of my friends called me Cinderella" explains Lynda. I was her slave around the house. I was constantly told I was ugly and fat and I was never going to have a man take care of me" shares Lynda. This abuse started when Lynda was seven years old and lasted until she moved out at 18. Step-mom would lie to Lynda's father about things she never did in order to keep Lynda on restriction and not be able to leave the house.  "She kept me under thumb and she made sure that my dad was always mad at me for something," reflects my guest.

For the most part, Lynda says "she was a good kid, though she did get caught sneaking out of the house one time but six weeks on restriction for not folding the clothes, was a bit much." My guest says she was just a good kid, a wall flower."  Lynda graduated hight school at seventeen, "but her dad wouldn't let her go away to college. My step mom was in my dad's ear, she didn't want me to leave the house."

At 18, finally Lynda was able to move out of the house and got a job and was never going to go back to that house again. Lynda wanted to go to college whether she paid for it herself or not. She paid for college herself and she was never going to have to depend on them for anything. Lynda was going to prove to her step mother that "she did not need a man to take care of her!"

Carolyn, Lynda's biological mom eventually  wanted to spend more time visiting her daughter. It wasn't until my guest was eighteen years old that she was able to go out with her mother alone.  At this point, Lynda had her mother on a pedestal. Lynda had envisioned her mom as 'a dream.' Anyone would be better than her step mother. Well, it turns out Carolyn had gotten remarried, but had  gotten pregnant just prior to  marrying her future second husband  and never told the truth about who's baby she was carrying.

Lynda reflects on  the incredible take away of this story "it's made me who I am- good, bad or indifferent. I think that we make choices in life. I could have spent  the rest of my life feeling that anger that my mom had let me be raised by this wicked step mother." In my mind, when I grew up that's what all my friends called her." We make a decision, we can say, ok, i'm going to let this be the excuse for why I 'm behaving the way, ... but because my step mom was like that I chose to take a different approach with my step children and we are very close, I am very close with my stepchildren and they've been my step children since they were eight years old."

Lynda chose forgiveness over anger after the birth of her second child. She realized that holding onto the anger and resentment toward her biological mother would only hurt her. She didn't want to continue this negative  tradition. Plus her children would benefit from having a grandmother in their life. Lynda is the first to admit that "her mother was a far better grandmother than a mother."

Lynda proudly explains "my grandmother, Margaret,  was the one  I got my design eye from." As young as seven years old, Lynda knew  that she wanted to be an Interior Designer, especially after years of dusting and rearranging everything in her step mother's house every week. One of Lynda's favorite things to do was rearrange and decorate her room as a young girl. It brought her so much joy. In time,  Lynda  began sewing and became a seamstress, making beautiful curtains and pillows and was hoping to work in this field one day.

Lynda can help you from your home on her new App - the "Let's Decorate App."  Everything from choosing paint colors to artwork, rugs, furniture and it's based on a variety of different rate packages based how many consultations you think you'd like, etc. You can ask Lynda  questions, send her room dimension, etc. It's all within the App so you'll have everything there as a reference.

Well, it turns out Carolyn had gotten remarried, but had  gotten pregnant just prior to  marrying her future second husband  and never told the truth about who's baby she was carrying.

Lynda reflects on  the incredible take away of this story "it's made me who I am- good, bad or indifferent. I think that we make choices in life. I could have spent  the rest of my life feeling that anger that my mom had let me be raised by this wicked step mother." In my mind, when I grew up that's what all my friends called her." We make a decision, we can say, ok, i'm going to let this be the excuse for why I 'm behaving the way, ... but because my step mom was like that I chose to take a different approach with my step children and we are very close, I am very close with my stepchildren and they've been my step children since they were eight years old."

Lynda chose forgiveness over anger after the birth of her second child. She realized that holding onto the anger and resentment toward her biological mother would only hurt her. She didn't want to continue this negative  tradition. Plus her children would benefit from having a grandmother in their life. Lynda is the first to admit that "her mother was a far better grandmother than a mother."

Lynda proudly explains "my grandmother, Margaret,  was the one  I got my design eye from." As young as seven years old, Lynda knew  that she wanted to be an Interior Designer, especially after years of dusting and rearranging everything in her step mother's house every week. One of Lynda's favorite things to do was rearrange and decorate her room as a young girl. It brought her so much joy. In time,  Lynda  began sewing and became a seamstress, making beautiful curtains and pillows and was hoping to work in this field one day.

Lynda can help you from your home on her new App - the "Let's Decorate App."  Everything from choosing paint colors to artwork, rugs, furniture and it's based on a variety of different rate packages based how many consultations you think you'd like, etc. You can ask Lynda  questions, send her room dimension, etc. It's all within the App so you'll have everything there as a reference.

LB @ S3E38 Therapy Twins Joan and Jane were raised in Connecticut. Both of the sisters are former nurses and their background and life experiences are varied and complex.

Just to set up the relationships-Jane is two minutes older than he twin Joan. For most of their lives, they've always  been referred to as  as 'Jane and Joan', so now they like to refer to themselves as Joan and Jane.  Lori, their older sister by three years, is considered the twins 'second mama.'  

My guests explain why they believe their mother was not overwhelmingly affectionate and loving.  They believe it began when  their  maternal grandmother abandoned all of  her five children, including the twin's mom, Evelyn. However, Evelyn's father insisted on keeping all of his children and raising them himself.  At that point in  time the twins mom's life changed  drastically.   Evelyn and her twin sister, Rita,  had to go work and take care of injured soldiers and the local elderly and live at a nearby facility. It was not a pleasant environment to say the least.

Joan and Jane's  parents met while roller skating and it was love at first sight. Evelyn worked at the local elementary school in the cafeteria for years. She wasn't necessarily a good cook but every night there was a full meal on the table.  From an early age the family was very close. Dinner, conversations, fresh cut fruit every night. "Our mom was a doll" always dressed up and presentable.

Joan explains "I think she sacrificed a lot of herself so we could have more. I couldn't even imagine somebody better than she was."

Jane on the other hand has a different perspective. " As the 'other' twin, I was born with a glass half empty and I was a depressed child.  I understand now that a mother glows when a child glows. I grew up with a big chip on my shoulder that my mother preferred Joan. Recently I came to the conclusion that when I got my depression treated, and I was bright and airy, I got the look, the smile from my mother and I'm so grateful.  The fact that she didn't leave us was good enough and that's all you need is a good enough mother." Because of miscommunication they lost many years of a loving relationship.

Fortunately Jane and her mom both admitted the miscommunication before Evelyn passed in saying to each another "Oh I'm sorry I thought you didn't like me" and vice a versa. Jane insists that "when you change your perception in life and view things a little bit differently, you'd be amazed at the lovely memories you could have."  All Jane can remember now is the good.

My guest's mom said "being an identical twin forces you to be comfortable being seen through a  microscope. 

Joan and Jane are therapists for anyone and everyone, not just twins.  Between the  two women, they've had some terrifying life experiences including PTSD, a  mugging, sexual assault, near airplane crash and more. They believe  that they experienced early childhood trauma beginning in the 1960's, when they spent 30 days in separate incubators  before they allowed mom and dad to touch the girls.  It wasn't till they got home after one month that they experienced physical and emotional touch. The twins feel that this trauma helps them with working with their clients suffering from similar experiences.

You can hear endless stories of the twins sharing symbiotic experiences,  emotionally and physically. And yes, they both have criminal records so don't be surprised if their arrest records  show up when you google them.

Her most recent books are "The Potrero Complex" and "The NIghthawkers." (Please check on Amazon and/or Bookshop.org to  find her books).

Gloria Felice, Amy's mom,  was a perfectionist layered with chronic anxiety and perhaps a lack of self confidence. So in turn, Gloria perhaps overcompensated by running an extremely orderly household.  So there were a lot of rules. ie "the kitchen was closed," Amy explains so her mom could keep the kitchen clean and organized for a certain amount of time. Gloria was very domestically focused and an exceptional cook. One of Amy's favorite meals was her mom's fried chicken.

Amy's mother was born in 1933 and was hoping to attend a free thinking college but her parent's refused so she settled for one year at Colby College in Maine and shortly married her husband at 18-19 years old. Amy says, "she didn't have a strong enough ego to be defiant.  She would have had such a different life. She wanted to write and didn't have the confidence to do that."

Felice had five children in seven and a half years and as the eldest, Amy took on the responsibilities of helping take care of her younger siblings. Amy explains that she was "an extremely obedient, good girl who never got into any trouble , which I now look back on and regret. I wish that I had acted out. I think I saved my acting out for my 60's."

When it was time to leave home for college, because Amy's mom hadn't gone out into the world, worked outside the home and hadn't had her own life experiences, Amy  didn't really have that close a relationship with her mother. Amy felt she didn't need her. Amy felt her mom couldn't give her what she needed because her mom hadn't experienced any of these things that Amy was searching for. My guest made a conscious decision to have a completely different relationship with her own daughter compared to what Amy experienced from her mother.

Amy always  felt safe and loved by her mother however Amy's tried "to have more of an adult friendship with her own daughter-to let her see me as a  true person with emotions and flaws." 

Amy's still grappling with what kind of relationship she actually had with her mother. She knows that she was loved and taken care of and has similar characteristics, but "she made very conscious choices to be very different." Amy realized "that's not who I wanted to be."

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

LB @ S3E36 My guest was born in Spain, in the Canary Islands. His father was from Austria and his mom from Chicago. The two met in art school in Vienna. Wenzly speaks English, German and Portuguese.

As Wenzl explains , his earliest childhood memories are of him being wrapped/strapped to his mom's back while she  painted for hours on end. "She a very dedicated artist," shares McGowan. "Her work ethic, her love for art, and also her commitment to being her authentic self has totally made me who I am. I owe a lot to this wonderful woman."

Spending time outdoors and exploring nature was a big part of Wenzl's childhood. He loved building tree houses and exploring the ancient art of building structures with stone among other things. 

One of the main gifts that Wenzl believes his mom gave him when he was a child was "she would never punish me for being my authentic self." Wenzl was very driven and his mom knew not to ever push him in a specific direction. "I think my mom wanted me to have the freedom to decide for myself what I think is good and how I want to spend my time. And she had this respect for me that I think not many people have for their kids."

 According to Wenzl he's "now moving more in the direction of meditation teacher, author and conscientious  explorer, philosopher that kind of thing excites me a lot. "Mom was a great singer and flautist but it came too easy to her so she stuck with her art because she didn't feel that she was an artist at all. We both like to challenge ourselves.

"Perhaps I don't have my stuff together myself. If I want to change the world, or hope for a better future, then I need to change myself," continues McGowen. 

Phenomenal mother, person and artist. Her art is really starting to get noticed. Brooke's philosophy on painting is similar to how she raised Wenzyl. "When she paints, she respects that the paint has their own will. She doesn't use brushes but pours paint on the canvas. And So yes, the paint really does do a lot of things that the artist doesn't expect, because she's not using it in a very controlled way but she is playing with that boundary of loosing control over the paint, but also respecting the paint's freedom to add to the painting in a spontaneous way.

LB @S3E35 Tammy Haddad  most recently finished teaching 5th and 6th grade and she likes to think that she knows what kids are into these days.  My guest is also the host of the "Cozy Rainbow" podcast which is geared for kids 10 years and up. As the  oldest of four siblings, Tammy says "I definitely get my drive from my mother. My father says "all my good qualities are from my mom."

Though Tammy grew up in Las Vega, NV, she still has family that live on the reservation in Monument Valley, UT where her mother was raised. And it was through her tribe that both Shirlene and Tammy were able to get funds for their education.  Tammy's family was able to receive funding for college through various organizations, including the 'Native American Scholarship' (NAS) and 'Indian Health Services' (IHS) programs, just to name a few. Tammy explained "if you receive funding from IHS for college as Tammy's mother did, your first job in the healthcare field, you must work for two years on a reservation-part of a give back program." 

"My mother insisted that I apply for scholarships. I know lots of kids who didn't apply. I even worked at the scholarship office in college. I was dedicated to getting funding because of my mother. "Mom said, just get up and do it."  In turn, Tammy then was there to heIp her younger siblings apply as well.  And today, Tammy does not have tremendous outstanding loans.

Tammy also shared her experience of coming out to her parents when she was then 16. She says "it was no big deal." She told her dad first, then her mom and her mom basically said "ok , cool no big deal." Tammy was very happy that her parents where understanding and that it wasn't a big to do.  She also doesn't understand why her sexual preference is anyone else's  business.  Tammy's advice to parents is, "tell your kids you love them no matter what, you'll never kick them out, and you'll always have a place to live here. Coming out doesn't have to be such a big deal," according to Tammy.

"Mom did all that she did-moved away, moved off the reservation and got her degree because she wanted me to have all the opportunities that she didn't have. My mom calls me her reincarnation" giggles Tammy. Not only do mother and daughter have similar personality traits, they do look very much alike.

LB @ S3E34 Chris's mom, Yun Cha, and dad met at the grocery shop that she and her sister owned nearby to the US military base. After years of  moving base to base in the US and Europe, Yun Cha still in her twenties, moved  back to the United States with her family where she was trying to immerse herself into the American culture.

After time,  trying to hold onto both cultures simultaneously, speaking Korean at home and English outside the home,  inevitably proved impossible. Yun Cha selflessly gave up speaking her native tongue to her children to help them assimilate back into their American culture.

Chris says "my mom was a great dreamer and she dreamed of such wonderful things.   If you do what you want, you'll never work a day in your life." Chris says that was great until he wanted to work in the theatre industry. Suddenly mom was championing for her son to be a doctor or lawyer and not the theatre rat that Chris wanted to be.

While living overseas, Chris and his older sister were immersed in the local culture regardless of what country they were living. That was one of many benefits of the American schools on the base. All the children were introduced to the history, arts and  entertainment of the surrounding area. They were exposed to so much more than their school books.

Eventually Chris's mother did go back to visit her remaining family in Korea. It was then that Yun Cha was able to get a recovered photograph of her mom, something that she longed for for many years. It brought her great comfort to finally see the photo of her mom again.

Chris's theatrical work, slightly on pause because of the pandemic: 

"Odd Lot "Improv Company and "Savannah Shakers" Shakespeare Theatre Company 

Podcast: "The Most Haunted City on Earth" -the telling of ghosts stories around Savannah. Found on Spotify and other platforms

Podcast: "My Favorite Ghost Story". Chris shares his favorite ghost stories

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

]]> Tue, 10 Mar 2026 02:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (should have listened to my mother podcast, Yun Cha Soucy, Chris Soucy, SHLTMM Podcast, jackie tantillo) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/she-always-carried-south-korea-in-her-heart-with-guest-storyteller-playwright-and-director-chris-soucy-lb-s3e34-XohvPb6d Chris's mom, Yun Cha, and dad met at the grocery shop that she and her sister owned nearby to the US military base. After years of  moving base to base in the US and Europe, Yun Cha still in her twenties, moved  back to the United States with her family where she was trying to immerse herself into the American culture.

After time,  trying to hold onto both cultures simultaneously, speaking Korean at home and English outside the home,  inevitably proved impossible. Yun Cha selflessly gave up speaking her native tongue to her children to help them assimilate back into their American culture.

Chris says "my mom was a great dreamer and she dreamed of such wonderful things.   If you do what you want, you'll never work a day in your life." Chris says that was great until he wanted to work in the theatre industry. Suddenly mom was championing for her son to be a doctor or lawyer and not the theatre rat that Chris wanted to be.

While living overseas, Chris and his older sister were immersed in the local culture regardless of what country they were living. That was one of many benefits of the American schools on the base. All the children were introduced to the history, arts and  entertainment of the surrounding area. They were exposed to so much more than their school books.

Eventually Chris's mother did go back to visit her remaining family in Korea. It was then that Yun Cha was able to get a recovered photograph of her mom, something that she longed for for many years. It brought her great comfort to finally see the photo of her mom again.

Chris's theatrical work, slightly on pause because of the pandemic: 

"Odd Lot "Improv Company and "Savannah Shakers" Shakespeare Theatre Company 

Podcast: "The Most Haunted City on Earth" -the telling of ghosts stories around Savannah. Found on Spotify and other platforms

Podcast: "My Favorite Ghost Story". Chris shares his favorite ghost stories

"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.

LB @ S3E34 should have listened to my mother podcast, Yun Cha Soucy, Chris Soucy, SHLTMM Podcast, jackie tantillo 00:28:58 On this episode of SHLTMM, Chris Soucy, Storyteller, Playwright and Theatrical Director, shares stories of growing up and moving regularly throughout Europe and the United States while his father served in the military.

LB @ S3E33 I truly enjoyed my conversation with Naveen.Even with  all of his accomplishments, he's very humble and unassuming. When speaking about his mother, he fondly recalls stories of how his mother ran their household. Don't forget, at this time in India, women did not work. Their role was to make sure the home was well kept  with generations of family members all living under one roof. 

Naveen's father was a Senior Officer in the Royal Service and it was an arranged marriage that brought the couple together. Jayalakshmi  was an exceptionally talented writer of short stories and novels. Her first priority was at home taking care of the family. She never sat around. She carried a clip board around with her and wrote down her most cherished thoughts. On a daily basis, she kept all the financial records/household accounts of how much money was spent each day. She stayed up late every night to write in two different India languages.   Naveen learned from his maternal grandmother that his mother, the first of eight children dropped out of school after sixth grade because she wanted to get married and settled down. Culturally that was accepted and the norm for the most part.

My guest, the youngest  of four children, had two sisters and one brother. As he says now, "I'm the last man standing." He grew up among elders including his aunt and uncle and his cousin all together in one household. 

Naveen shares three very touching stories about his mother including how and when she started her writing, her professional connections and her public recognition as a highly revered author.  Again, in India, this is unheard of and she did this without fanfare or calling attention to herself.

Naveen's mom, didn't have much of a sense of humor according to her son. She was very practical and a no nonsense kind of woman yet happy with her life.

To find out more about my guest you can use the link below. This event is scheduled for August 28, 2022.  

https://thewashingtonmail.com/win-free-books/

Books Naveen has written:

A Hittite and a Shaman: At Queen Nefertari's Secret Service

Starlight in the Dawn: The Poetic Priestess who chose to fight

Candlelight in a Storm: Born to Be a Berliner

"Candlelight In A Storm-Born To Be A Berliner" a biography of Naveen's wife who fled from WWII's violence, escaped from Communist regimes and traveled around the world. He is the recipient of the 2018 DaVinci Eye Finalist-The Eric Hoffer Award. 

 “Courageous and resilient women in history: Women are under-represented in history. A closer look and even fantasy in fiction may help," say Sradhir.

My guest has written several books about women who have overcome difficulties, oppression and more. Mr. Sridhar continues " women ,famous or not,  who show their grit by way of resilience, adamance and courage, these women are quiet and not talked about, their stories untold. Instead of HIS-tory maybe it should be HER-story."

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

He wasn't going to record it in his next studio session but his coworkers insisted, and here we are.

Over the years and decades of working in the radio industry, I've interviewed hundreds of musicians. Jackson is up there at the top of the list as far as being polite, honest, humble and open about his strengths and weaknesses. I imagine a lot of that comes from his childhood and the fact that his family played a huge role in his life. Family is very important to my guest, not only because they keep you grounded, but he realized at a young age exactly how fortunate he truly was to have a mom , dad and brother that  truly supported each other. He was taught to show respect and appreciation for all that he has and he really is all that!  Jackson talks about "his solid foundation" and how it helps him stayed focused.

'Norman's Rare Guitars' in Los Angeles, CA recorded a few videos with Jackson featured playing the guitar with special guest musicians. You should check these videos out on

He's known for being at the right place at the right time but Jackson works hard at his craft because he's so passionate about his music.  Jackson has a great story to share about one of his early performances at the legendary Puckett's in Leipers Fort, TN. For such a young performer, he got some crazy memorable stories to share about all the celebrated artists he's come into contact with.

I wish you all the best Jackson!

LB @ S3E27 All we need is one special person in our life to change our destiny. When Irina mentioned that her grandmother had taught her to sew, I knew there was something very telling about her maternal role models in her life.  Irina introduces us to her mother, Etya and Grandmother Beyla, who was a seamstress. Unfortunately, Etya's father died when she was a young teen in Russia.

Etya was born and lived in Russia till the age of 25. She was one of three children, came from a poor family at a time when it was difficult to be successful in Russia. Etya was the kind of child that "always wanted more than what was available," says my guest about her mom.

My guest, Irina was born in Russia  and came to America as a Jewish refugee when 2 1/12 years old.  What is it like to grow up with a mother who always thought of herself first?  "She told me I  that I was worthless and stupid all the time" says Lester of her mother.  "I was always in her way and she was always exhausted by me." Irina says she developed survival skills at a very young age.

It wasn't until Beyla, Irina's grandmother, insisted on taking her granddaughter to her place of work as a seamstress or to her home, "where she felt safe, loved and cared for and allowed to be a kid," continues Lester. This is when and how Irina's life started to turn around.  I know that there are many children that never get this lifeline through out their life. Irina got lucky but there certainly are many scars that she wears with frustration, hurt  and humility.

Previously divorced and a single mom, Irina struggled to care for her young daughter, so she's familiar with what her mother experienced, but it doesn't mean that you have the right to mistreat and/or abuse your child because you are a narcissist. 

"The local Yarn Store",  in  large part, is due to the influence her grandmother had on my guest's life. Beyla introduced  Irina  to embroidering and hand stitching and so much more.  Irina says, "my grandmother taught me to appreciate the beauty and the creative process and the functionality of the basics of clothing."  Luckily, Irina inherited her grandmother's sewing machine and is now an avid knitter.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

The Cuban Government agreed to allow America to transport fleeing Cuban families, with relatives in the US,  to Miami. In 1967, Maria, her brother  and her parents were among  the hundreds of thousands that fled to start a new life in America. Because the family was sponsored by a New Jersey business man, they settled there to begin their new life. 

Maria was 16-17 years old when she came to the United States and according to her son, "considers herself an American." Joe insists "my mother is old school and worked very hard through out her life.  She went to school for as long as her family could pay for it and then went on to work in factories where she was treated terribly as an immigrant."

Both of Joe's parent's family's are originally from Spain, even though his mother had been living in Cuba.  Joe's father, a ship mechanic and hard worker came to the US and met Maria.   They married when Maria was 19 years old and started a family.

Joe repeatedly mentions through out the interview that as a child and even today,  "I never wanted to disappoint my mother." Both of his parents worked very hard to give Joe and his brother everything they wanted. All Maria asked of her boys was to treat others they way you  want to be treated. "Mom encouraged us to do what ever made us happy" says Pardavila. "I'm very grateful for all those little life lessons that were taught to me, whether through osmosis or verbal. It king of stuck to me and it's a part of my life for life."

Joe is the Director  of Podcasts for Advantage Forbes Books as well as the host of the podcast "Uncertain Times, Survive And Thrive In Business." He's also written the book "Good Listen," where he shares his experience and background as a producer/talent for the 'Scott and Todd Morning Show' on WPLJ FM, one of New York City iconic radio shows for 2 decades. He came to understand that he had many "soft skills" he could share and apply with others regarding great communication tools, regardless of what medium you choose to apply them.

The Freedom Flights were an unusual instance of cooperation between the US and Cuban governments. During the Camarioca boatlift in 1965, Castro opened up the Cuban port of Camarioca for the departure of Cubans with relatives in the US (excluding men of military age). The number of boats and fleeing Cubans was so great that the boatlift overwhelmed the US Coast Guard. In an effort to support refugees and quell chaos, the US agreed with Cuba to finance the Freedom Flights, which transported Cuban refugees with US relatives to Miami twice daily, five times per week between 1965 and 1973. The Freedom Flights would bring about 300,000 Cubans to the US and cost approximately twelve million dollars. Although Castro initially agreed to the program, Cubans who signed up faced harassment and humiliation before their departure and property confiscation after.

"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.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Oh yes, she presented very well on the phone with prospective employers, but when they saw her in person, the rejection came fast.  She didn't even get a chance to prove them wrong.

Again, Jackie her mom, didn't treat her blind daughter any differently than her other children. She had to learn the ways of the world at a very young age. Kamille would be the stronger for it. Kamille shared that her mother "NEVER let me use the word "can't," and that she taught her daughter "to advocate for herself."

Kamille Richardson was born blind but never lacked a vision for a bright future. An author, motivational speaker, and founder of iSee Technologies, Inc., she has overcome various obstacles to build a life and career she loves.

 

Not only is she an advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion, but she’s constantly breaking corporate norms, shattering expectations, and reminding companies that diversity fuels business growth.

Here’s how Richardson fought against the odds to build her own company—and create more space for inclusion in some of the world’s top companies.

Raised to Believe in Herself

From a young age, Richardson knew she was different—but was raised not to see her disability as a weakness. “My mother never let me use the word ‘can’t,'” Richardson recalls. Because her mother taught her to advocate for herself, growing up blind never deterred her dreams.

“I was allowed to dream big,” she shares. “I always knew, even when I was younger, that I was going to overcome barriers in the best way I knew how. It wasn’t always easy, of course, but I was determined.”

Showing Up Authentically

When Richardson started applying for jobs, she received numerous interview invitations. However, a pattern quickly emerged.

“They would see me, and they’d see that white cane in my hand—and the temperature would drop about 20 degrees,” she shares.

*She looked great on paper, but once employers realized she was blind, their perception shifted.

“Suddenly that warm greeting I got earlier became a cold conversation, and it always ended with the ‘Don’t call us, we’ll call you,'” she says. “The calls and emails never came.”

Tired of rejection, she decided to say yes to herself. “I knew I had the power to hire me,” Richardson explains.

*Her determination only grew as she stepped into the business world as a blind, Black entrepreneurial woman.

*At first, she believed that fitting into corporate norms was the only way to succeed. “I thought I had to be very corporate, buttoned-up, and wear my power suit,” she admits. “But that’s not me. When I tried to show up like that—stiff and stuffy—I wasn’t comfortable in my own skin, and the doors still weren’t opening.”

Only when Richardson embraced her true self did things change.

“I showed up with my big curly hair, my big earrings, and my colorful outfits—that’s when people started seeing my personality first,” she shares.

Building Her Own Empire

A self-described tech-savvy individual, Richardson adapted quickly to e-readers when the iPhone first launched them. Soon after, she founded iSee Technologies with the goal of helping her visually impaired and blind peers regain independence—particularly through employment.

But her clients often faced the same rejections she once did.

“I said to myself, ‘I need to evolve iSee Technologies to become part of the solution,'” Richardson says. “I decided to use my voice and my platform to go in and teach companies how to be more inclusive in their hiring and workplace culture—so when they see disability, they don’t immediately reject it.”

Today, iSee Technologies is a thriving business that offers people development consulting, accessibility services, and workforce wellness training to companies and government agencies. Their client list includes The Walt Disney Company, BASF, Kimberly-Clark Corporation, Kraft, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Inclusion Is Good for Business

Hiring people from diverse backgrounds and abilities enhances innovation and team performance.

“The biggest misconception is that accommodations for people with disabilities are expensive,” Richardson explains. “But 59% of accommodations cost nothing at all—and the other 41% cost less than $500.”

Many businesses fail to see the value of disabled employees simply because they don’t understand it.

“We are some of the most creative and innovative team members you’ll ever have,” she says. “We live in a world not designed for us, so we have to be the ultimate problem solvers.”

-One of iSee Technologies’ corporate clients saw this potential and hired Richardson to conduct training to empower their teams to create more accessible environments. As a result, employees felt more validated and respected—and more committed to their work.

“And of course, when you have more engaged employees, that’s definitely going to help your bottom line.”

About Me

WHO THE HELL IS TERRI? Terri Hanson Mead is a tiara-wearing, champagne-drinking, midlife troublemaker on a mission to help women over 40 blow up the boxes they were told to live in. She's a former life sciences IT consultant and angel investor turned reinvention advocate, helicopter pilot, and award-winning author of Piloting Your Life.

After nearly 25 years in IT consulting for life sciences companies, Terri realized she'd been living by someone else's rules. So she changed the game, ditched the script, rewrote her story, and now helps other women do the same. She speaks truth about the messy middle of midlife including career pivots, empty nests, changing bodies, evolving relationships, and helps women reclaim their power on their own damn terms.

WHAT MAKES HER DIFFERENT (AKA WHY YOU WANT HER ON YOUR STAGE OR PODCAST)

  • Radical Realness: Talks openly about identity crisis, imposter syndrome, and the WTF moments of reinvention and living as a woman over 40 in a patriarchal society
  • Permission Slip Provider: Gives women full-body yeses to take up space, make noise, and burn the "shoulds"
  • Action Meets Attitude: It's not just inspiration, it's a call to DO the damn thing
  • Impossible-to-Categorize Credentials: Former life sciences consultant. Helicopter pilot. Angel investor. Midlife adventurer. (Try putting that in a box.)
  • Laugh-Out-Loud Smart: Think Brené Brown or Mel Robbins meets your funniest, most fearless friend, with receipts and a flight plan

STREET CRED

  • 🚁 Commercial helicopter pilot (yes, seriously)
  • 🏆 Award-winning author of Piloting Your Life
  • 🎓 Stanford Continuing Studies instructor: Navigating Midlife for Women
  • 💸 Former angel investor focused on women-led startups (8 years)
  • 🧭 Co-founder of Zeke and Terri Adventures, inspiring 50+ travel and reinvention
  • 👫 Married 29 years, still evolving, still adventuring

About Me

WHO THE HELL IS TERRI? Terri Hanson Mead is a tiara-wearing, champagne-drinking, midlife troublemaker on a mission to help women over 40 blow up the boxes they were told to live in. She's a former life sciences IT consultant and angel investor turned reinvention advocate, helicopter pilot, and award-winning author of Piloting Your Life.

After nearly 25 years in IT consulting for life sciences companies, Terri realized she'd been living by someone else's rules. So she changed the game, ditched the script, rewrote her story, and now helps other women do the same. She speaks truth about the messy middle of midlife including career pivots, empty nests, changing bodies, evolving relationships, and helps women reclaim their power on their own damn terms.

WHAT MAKES HER DIFFERENT (AKA WHY YOU WANT HER ON YOUR STAGE OR PODCAST)

  • Radical Realness: Talks openly about identity crisis, imposter syndrome, and the WTF moments of reinvention and living as a woman over 40 in a patriarchal society
  • Permission Slip Provider: Gives women full-body yeses to take up space, make noise, and burn the "shoulds"
  • Action Meets Attitude: It's not just inspiration, it's a call to DO the damn thing
  • Impossible-to-Categorize Credentials: Former life sciences consultant. Helicopter pilot. Angel investor. Midlife adventurer. (Try putting that in a box.)
  • Laugh-Out-Loud Smart: Think Brené Brown or Mel Robbins meets your funniest, most fearless friend, with receipts and a flight plan

STREET CRED

  • 🚁 Commercial helicopter pilot (yes, seriously)
  • 🏆 Award-winning author of Piloting Your Life
  • 🎓 Stanford Continuing Studies instructor: Navigating Midlife for Women
  • 💸 Former angel investor focused on women-led startups (8 years)
  • 🧭 Co-founder of Zeke and Terri Adventures, inspiring 50+ travel and reinvention
  • 👫 Married 29 years, still evolving, still adventuring

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

This is the email Melissa wrote to me after I had asked a little bit about the facts of she and her mother's relationship:

Dr. Melissa Bird, "My relationship with my mom was complicated when I was younger. My father committed suicide when I was 6 and it broke my mothers heart. My childhood was chaotic and often violent, and yet my mom loved me the best she could with her shattered heart. I was a rebellious teenager and angry about so many things. It wasn't until 2017 when I was on a retreat in Scotland that I realized that my mom was a broken hearted woman, like so many of us who have had our lives shattered when our partners break our hearts. My mom's loving and compassionate soul is why I am the woman I have become today. Rather than seeing her as weak, as I did when I was younger, I realize that my mom is strong and powerful. She has shown me that even through the largest of heartbreaks, one can still carry on and make one's way in the world. I am the leader I am today because my mom always supported my crazy ideas, my drive to succeed, and even when I tried to push her away, my mom never gave up on loving me. She is one of my best friends and a true hero to me."

 

My mom was adopted and my grandmother shaped who she and I both are. That might be another thread you want to tug at and if we don't have time, I know how fast 30 minutes goes because of my own podcast, that might be a different interview you want to do with her.

My name is Dr. Melissa Bird and I am so glad you are here. I am a lay preacher, public speaker, author and podcaster.

-I inspire personal understanding through contemplation, help people use their intuition to change their lives and communities, and encourage the healing of grief and loss through spiritual connection.

​-I live and work in Corvallis, Oregon where I can often be found drinking Earl Gray tea with heavy cream while reading and waxing poetic about the beauty of life and love.

*If you are looking to connect with an amazing and phenomenal human, who loves inspiring change in our lives and our ocmunities, the you are in the right place.

*As a facilitator for groups and individuals, I push you to do the hard work, turn towards things that scare you and remind you that humor and love are the keys for transformation.

​Melissa is very direct, "I cut right to the chase and challenge you to show up as the VERY BEST version of yourself. Whether it is through a 1:1 divination session or in a group of colleagues or friends, what I am able to do through my teaching gives you the hope you need in a world that feels so challenging and difficult.

My mom's loving and compassionate soul is why I am the woman I have become today. Rather than seeing her as weak, as I did when I was younger, I realize that my mom is strong and powerful. She has shown me that even through the largest of heartbreaks, one can still carry on and make one's way in the world. I am the leader I am today because my mom always supported my crazy ideas, my drive to succeed, and even when I tried to push her away, my mom never gave up on loving me. She is one of my best friends and a true hero to me."

 

My mom was adopted and my grandmother shaped who she and I both are. That might be another thread you want to tug at and if we don't have time, I know how fast 30 minutes goes because of my own podcast, that might be a different interview you want to do with her.

My name is Dr. Melissa Bird and I am so glad you are here. I am a lay preacher, public speaker, author and podcaster.

-I inspire personal understanding through contemplation, help people use their intuition to change their lives and communities, and encourage the healing of grief and loss through spiritual connection.

​-I live and work in Corvallis, Oregon where I can often be found drinking Earl Gray tea with heavy cream while reading and waxing poetic about the beauty of life and love.

*If you are looking to connect with an amazing and phenomenal human, who loves inspiring change in our lives and our ocmunities, the you are in the right place.

*As a facilitator for groups and individuals, I push you to do the hard work, turn towards things that scare you and remind you that humor and love are the keys for transformation.

​Melissa is very direct, "I cut right to the chase and challenge you to show up as the VERY BEST version of yourself. Whether it is through a 1:1 divination session or in a group of colleagues or friends, what I am able to do through my teaching gives you the hope you need in a world that feels so challenging and difficult.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

]]> Coming Full Circle After Decades of Shared Trauma With Guest Lay Preacher, Social Worker and Author, Dr. Melissa Bird DR. Melissa Bird, Christina Larsen Reiki Master, jackie tantillo, should have listened to my mother podcast 00:32:08 This was a very special conversation. I'm so glad that both Melissa and her mother, Christina/Tina were able to make this happen. To me this "mother-daughter" relationship is an example of the "arc" of a relationship. All that encompasses love-good and bad. The challenges that life throws at us and the bravery it takes to right the wrongs. Dr. Bird is a nationally recognized lay preacher, author, life coach, social worker and mother. Her father was Native American. She is a descendant of the Shivwits Band of Paiutes, a sovereign, federally recognized Native American Tribe of Southwest Utah. Melissa has said that she had trouble fitting in as a child. Tragically, her dad took his life when she was six. My guest remembers that her life was chaotic and often violent and yet mom loved me the best she could with her shattered heart. Over the decades, these two women have been able to come to understand one another better, forgive on another, listen to one another, heal and come to terms with the trauma of what happened to both of them, so many years ago.

NOTES FROM DR. DALEO PhD:

I help children and parents reduce anxiety naturally using expressive arts, mind-body tools, and evidence-based stress-reduction practices.

As a Harvard-trained specialist with over 25 years of experience, my work bridges psychology, expressive arts, and integrative wellness. I’ve supported thousands of families, educators, and practitioners seeking non-drug, practical ways to calm the nervous system and strengthen emotional resilience.

My mission is simple: raise a generation of calm, confident children—naturally.

I create programs, workshops, and guided experiences that give families proven tools to navigate anxiety, boost self-regulation, and reconnect to creativity and inner wisdom. My approach blends neuroscience, storytelling, imagery, and somatic practices to help children feel safe, seen, and empowered.

I work with:
• Parents seeking natural strategies for anxious children
• Educators, counselors, and child-focused practitioners
• Organizations committed to child mental health + wellness
• Families looking for expressive arts–based tools to thrive

If you’re dedicated to the wellbeing of children and want to integrate mind-body practices into daily life, you'll love this episode!

The most common reaction to the good things that happen in life is to try to hold on, hold on tighter, making every effort to have that good stay and wall out the bad stuff.Try as we may, we don’t want anything bad to happen to us -whatever “bad” is! And-if that bad thing does happen, we’ll say:”This is a very bad, horrible, terrible thing!”Rather than, suspending judgement and saying to yourself: “This is interesting...could be bad, could be good.” In this video, you learn how to have a soft touch to all emotions in your life. INCLUDES A SONG with a catchy tune and rhyme for easy recall and learning.

Looking Back at S3E24 My guest wrote to me saying "even as a child , my mother had me researching at the library and writing essays on various topics! I went on to pursue higher education and become a teacher, and after retiring from a successful and rewarding career, I went on to write an award winning spiritual fiction and a prominently endorsed 5-book series (in addition to contributing to numerous anthology books."  Dr. Foderaro continues, "I am passionate about handling life's challenges with goodness, compassion, honesty and love. I talk about surviving Family Trauma which initially led to being open to the Universe's signs and synchronicities, and then eventually led to my writing to heal and becoming an author.

From a young age, Marni's mother, Elizabeth Ann, taught her daughter many lessons. Often these recurring lessons were meant to instill creativity, discipline and motivation, all skills that Marni says were helpful when becoming a teacher. For example, Marni shares the story of when she was a child and wanted her first ten speed bicycle and many more.  Her mother was steadfast and had specific reasoning as to how Marni could get that bike. You'll have to listen to the show to get all the details. Just so you know, both  Marni and her mother were writers and teachers.

"My mother was a lover of words and extremely witty and intelligent. She grew up in Florida and North Carolina. She got her   Masters Degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in an era and area of the United States  which typically  was unheard of for women, continues Marni. Before completing her Masters, Elizabeth Ann was a high school English teacher in Broward Co., Florida and went on to teach English at Stetson University at DeLand, Florida." Marni is convinced that her mom had tremendous family support and encouragement as a young lady, otherwise "there's no way she could have achieved all that she did" reflects Dr. Foderaro.

Marni has many wonderful stories to share about her mother and how she encouraged and supported her as a child and how her mother still influences her today. " I know my mom was a huge part of who I am."

Foderaro admits that her upbringing was unconventional compared to her peers. It was the 60's and she and her two younger brothers had plenty of freedom. The kids were often on their own, left to raise themselves, yet plenty of time to be creative. Her father was a college professor. 

"The freedom had pros and cons", says Foderaro, "I didn't get guidance for many things, it was bittersweet. I was often striving for structure and discipline and I grew up being very organized which helped me with my teaching career."

 

More from Marni's Bio:

Marni’s life was forever changed after experiencing numerous trauma-induced STEs-Spiritually Transformative Encounters. Marni’s 2020 Best Books Award Winning Spiritual fiction “God Came to My Garage Sale” is prominently endorsed by James Redfield, best selling author of “The Celestine Prophecy” series of books and founding directors of IANDS (International Association for Near Death Studies). 

Marni’s latest prominently endorsed 5-book series is entitled: “True Deceit False Love” addresses Domestic Violence, Narcissistic Abuse, Parental Alienation and Intergenerational Family Trauma.

Marni is a lover of animals, nature, music and world travel who handles life’s challenges with love and compassion. She values honesty, integrity, equality and goodness and prays for peace on earth. 

In addition to her speaking engagements and various writing endeavors, Foderaro is a contributing author to numerous anthology books, including: “The Last Breath,” “The Evolution of Echo,” “We’re All In This Together: Embrace One Another,” “The Ulti-MUTT Book for Dog Lovers” and “bLU Talks Presents” (Business, Life and the Universe.) 

In January 2022 Marni was inducted into the Bestselling Authors International Organization. Dr. Marni Hill Foderaro’s books, podcast and T.V. interviews, guest articles, speaking engagements, book signings and events can be found under “Happenings” on her website. www.GodCameToMyGarageSale.com   under “Happenings” to see examples of my podcast and T.V. interviews, books, guest articles, book signings and other events.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

]]> Tue, 2 Dec 2025 03:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (should have listened to my mother, Dr. Marni Hill Foderaro, SHLTMM Podcast, jackie tantillo, should have listened to my mother podcast) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/lessons-learned-from-my-mother-with-guest-author-dr-marni-hill-foderaro-looking-back-at-s3e24-PTJLJOgq My guest wrote to me saying "even as a child , my mother had me researching at the library and writing essays on various topics! I went on to pursue higher education and become a teacher, and after retiring from a successful and rewarding career, I went on to write an award winning spiritual fiction and a prominently endorsed 5-book series (in addition to contributing to numerous anthology books."  Dr. Foderaro continues, "I am passionate about handling life's challenges with goodness, compassion, honesty and love. I talk about surviving Family Trauma which initially led to being open to the Universe's signs and synchronicities, and then eventually led to my writing to heal and becoming an author.

From a young age, Marni's mother, Elizabeth Ann, taught her daughter many lessons. Often these recurring lessons were meant to instill creativity, discipline and motivation, all skills that Marni says were helpful when becoming a teacher. For example, Marni shares the story of when she was a child and wanted her first ten speed bicycle and many more.  Her mother was steadfast and had specific reasoning as to how Marni could get that bike. You'll have to listen to the show to get all the details. Just so you know, both  Marni and her mother were writers and teachers.

"My mother was a lover of words and extremely witty and intelligent. She grew up in Florida and North Carolina. She got her   Masters Degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in an era and area of the United States  which typically  was unheard of for women, continues Marni. Before completing her Masters, Elizabeth Ann was a high school English teacher in Broward Co., Florida and went on to teach English at Stetson University at DeLand, Florida." Marni is convinced that her mom had tremendous family support and encouragement as a young lady, otherwise "there's no way she could have achieved all that she did" reflects Dr. Foderaro.

Marni has many wonderful stories to share about her mother and how she encouraged and supported her as a child and how her mother still influences her today. " I know my mom was a huge part of who I am."

Foderaro admits that her upbringing was unconventional compared to her peers. It was the 60's and she and her two younger brothers had plenty of freedom. The kids were often on their own, left to raise themselves, yet plenty of time to be creative. Her father was a college professor. 

"The freedom had pros and cons", says Foderaro, "I didn't get guidance for many things, it was bittersweet. I was often striving for structure and discipline and I grew up being very organized which helped me with my teaching career."

 

More from Marni's Bio:

Marni’s life was forever changed after experiencing numerous trauma-induced STEs-Spiritually Transformative Encounters. Marni’s 2020 Best Books Award Winning Spiritual fiction “God Came to My Garage Sale” is prominently endorsed by James Redfield, best selling author of “The Celestine Prophecy” series of books and founding directors of IANDS (International Association for Near Death Studies). 

Marni’s latest prominently endorsed 5-book series is entitled: “True Deceit False Love” addresses Domestic Violence, Narcissistic Abuse, Parental Alienation and Intergenerational Family Trauma.

Marni is a lover of animals, nature, music and world travel who handles life’s challenges with love and compassion. She values honesty, integrity, equality and goodness and prays for peace on earth. 

In addition to her speaking engagements and various writing endeavors, Foderaro is a contributing author to numerous anthology books, including: “The Last Breath,” “The Evolution of Echo,” “We’re All In This Together: Embrace One Another,” “The Ulti-MUTT Book for Dog Lovers” and “bLU Talks Presents” (Business, Life and the Universe.) 

In January 2022 Marni was inducted into the Bestselling Authors International Organization. Dr. Marni Hill Foderaro’s books, podcast and T.V. interviews, guest articles, speaking engagements, book signings and events can be found under “Happenings” on her website. www.GodCameToMyGarageSale.com   under “Happenings” to see examples of my podcast and T.V. interviews, books, guest articles, book signings and other events.

It's was such a pleasure meeting Jennifer. She"s real and down to earth. She's experienced a lot of life, especially at a young age and today she can look back with acceptance and wise reflection.

My guest was born at the Salvation Army center for Unwed Mothers in Los Angeles. As an adoptee, she has a wonderful perspective on family. She shares "family is built on love and not necessarily anything else." She spent a lot of time as a small baby and young child with other adopted children. Her parents told her that "some babies come from mommy's tummies and some do not. Family is family." Being adopted doesn't define Jennifer. 

Her parents split up after seven years. Her mother was experiencing mental wellness issues, social pressure issues and Jennifer was exposed to extreme behavior. Eventually, Jennifer did find her biological mother and her half sisters. 

"Curiosity, being open minded and humble" are Jennifer's super powers. "Sandy's resentment," Jennifer believes, "actually helped me to become more and have more acceptance and meet people where they're at instead of forcing narratives of how they should behave."

Sandy gave Jennifer many gifts, including the gift of understanding, compassion, the gift of wonderment, life is nuanced and that life isn't always convenient." Throughout her childhood/life she learned the importance of how to maintain friendships and the significance of showing up for other people.

Jennifer has been sober for thirty five years.

It was a wonderful conversation as he shared stories of his grandmother and her love for art and he declaration about using proper english grammar. Greg shares how he inherited  that same consciousness as to being respectful to the english language.

A Best Selling Author with an eye on being active and healthy, his recent book is about adults, caregivers, teachers helping teenagers reduce their stress levels by using his meditative technique incorporating Gratitude, Acceptance, Intention and Non judgement in a 3-4 minute daily meditation that anyone can do. He explains and walks us through a short meditation during this conversation.

It's important for all of us to have balance in our lives-mental and physical balance and peace.

It was a real pleasure speaking and meeting Dr. Greg Hammer.

architectInformation about his most recent book: A Mindful Teen: Helping Today’s Teenagers Thrive through Gratitude, Acceptance, Intention, and Non judgement 

Topic: Coping Strategies for Youth this National Suicide Prevention Month

Talk Points: 

Destigmatization is the key - Suicide is preventable through awareness, education, and accessible resources.

The more we discuss mental health in productive ways, the better primed we will be to catch the warning signs before they progress into something serious.

Openly discussing mental health encourages youth to initiate those conversations for themselves and ask for help should they need it.

Today’s teens face stressors that older generations never imagined

Social media, smartphones, and the internet – and AI

After-effects of COVID lockdown and isolation

The great political divide, affecting relationships in and outside of families

Increasingly competitive college admission and tuition

The economic pressures their families face

The Role of Parents and Parenting  - Cultivating Compassion, Forgiveness, and Empathy

The Risks and How to Spot Them

*Early Detection can save your child’s life - The warning signs that someone is struggling with their mental health can easily be overlooked (especially amongst teenagers).

*The most common symptoms of depression and anxiety (i.e. changes in behavior and mood, irritability, changes in sleep habits, changes in eating habits, withdrawing socially) are also commonly associated with the standard growing pains and hormonal shifts of adolescence. So, how do you know the difference?

If something feels off with your child, the best thing you can do is ask.

Sit down with your child and have a gentle, but honest conversation about your concerns. You may have to speak with them multiple times before they’re ready to open up. Trust your instincts and be gently persistent.

Consult a Mental Health Professional: There is no shame in asking for help for both teens and adults.

Mindfulness at Home - Encouraging children to practice mindfulness daily can help build their mental and emotional resilience and protect their mental health in the short and long term.

*Mindfulness can be a great tool to help teens rewire their brains away from the negativity on which they dwell. It can neutralize their tendency to ruminate over the past, often leading to depression, and to overthinking the future, creating fear and anxiety.

The GAIN Method - Gratitude, Acceptance, Intention, and Nonjudgment are the pillars of happiness for teens - and for the rest of us.

A Best Selling Author with an eye on being active and healthy, his recent book is about adults, caregivers, teachers helping teenagers reduce their stress levels by using his meditative technique incorporating Gratitude, Acceptance, Intention and Non judgement in a 3-4 minute daily meditation that anyone can do. He explains and walks us through a short meditation during this conversation.

It's important for all of us to have balance in our lives-mental and physical balance and peace.

It was a real pleasure speaking and meeting Dr. Greg Hammer.

architectInformation about his most recent book: A Mindful Teen: Helping Today’s Teenagers Thrive through Gratitude, Acceptance, Intention, and Non judgement 

Topic: Coping Strategies for Youth this National Suicide Prevention Month

Talk Points: 

Destigmatization is the key - Suicide is preventable through awareness, education, and accessible resources.

The more we discuss mental health in productive ways, the better primed we will be to catch the warning signs before they progress into something serious.

Openly discussing mental health encourages youth to initiate those conversations for themselves and ask for help should they need it.

Today’s teens face stressors that older generations never imagined

Social media, smartphones, and the internet – and AI

After-effects of COVID lockdown and isolation

The great political divide, affecting relationships in and outside of families

Increasingly competitive college admission and tuition

The economic pressures their families face

The Role of Parents and Parenting  - Cultivating Compassion, Forgiveness, and Empathy

The Risks and How to Spot Them

*Early Detection can save your child’s life - The warning signs that someone is struggling with their mental health can easily be overlooked (especially amongst teenagers).

*The most common symptoms of depression and anxiety (i.e. changes in behavior and mood, irritability, changes in sleep habits, changes in eating habits, withdrawing socially) are also commonly associated with the standard growing pains and hormonal shifts of adolescence. So, how do you know the difference?

If something feels off with your child, the best thing you can do is ask.

Sit down with your child and have a gentle, but honest conversation about your concerns. You may have to speak with them multiple times before they’re ready to open up. Trust your instincts and be gently persistent.

Consult a Mental Health Professional: There is no shame in asking for help for both teens and adults.

Mindfulness at Home - Encouraging children to practice mindfulness daily can help build their mental and emotional resilience and protect their mental health in the short and long term.

*Mindfulness can be a great tool to help teens rewire their brains away from the negativity on which they dwell. It can neutralize their tendency to ruminate over the past, often leading to depression, and to overthinking the future, creating fear and anxiety.

The GAIN Method - Gratitude, Acceptance, Intention, and Nonjudgment are the pillars of happiness for teens - and for the rest of us.

]]> Memories of my Grandmother's Love for Creating and Collecting Modern Art with Guest Stanford University Physician and Mindfulness Expert, Greg Hammer, MD Dr. Greg Hammer, Jackie Tantillo, Should Have Listened to my Mother Podcast 00:32:44 Truly interesting conversation this week with Physician and author, Dr. Greg Hammer. Greg shared stories of his maternal grandmother, Kay. Kay's grandparents immigrated to the United States from Germany. Kay's mother and Kay were both born in the US. Greg says his grandmother was an aristocrat. She and Greg's grandfather started collecting art at a young age and the walls of their home, in the suburbs of Chicago, were covered in large canvases of work by Picasso, Manet, Monet, Calder, Modigliani and more. Greg would spend time with his grandmother going to museums in the Chicago area where he grew up. Grateful for all his memories of his grandmother and her sharing her passion for art, Greg claims to be an art collector now as well.

Yet he was determined to find a way to a path of balance and clarity in life. Rob mentioned that by the time he was a teen, he felt that he'd rather die overseas than stay living with his father and stepmother. 

Rob served his country for seven years. After attempting to take his life and being assaulted by a senior officer, he decided that it was time to retire. Insomnia was chronic and conventional treatments weren't helping with Rob's mental health issues  Rob decided to head to Asia and more or less loose himself in the culture, nature and face his demons. He explains, "Instead of waiting, I set out on a journey that changed everything.

I lived with tribes in the jungles of the Philippines, spent three months as the disciple of a Hindu monk in the Himalayas, trained under a Shaolin master in China, and later joined a troop of spear fishermen in Boracay who hunted in the deep daily to feed their community during the pandemic.

The lessons I gathered became the foundation of my book "Unfiltered Wisdom," a raw look at resilience, self-discovery, and mental health from the inside out."

 His book, "Unfiltered Wisdom," is the result of re-examining himself, his pain, sorrow, sickness and anger. 

Rob's first contact with me was this email:

"I lost my mother when I was four years old on Christmas Eve in 1987 so I didn't really have much of a relationship with her throughout my life because she was gone.

However, my father remarried, and I had a stepmother. We had a very complicated relationship, but she did really help my dad get himself back in order and gave us a way better life than my siblings before he had so I'm definitely grateful for her efforts and sacrifice in that regard.

I'm interested in talking about my mom but again I don't really know too much about my real mother other than stories that I was told. My stepmother was the only mother that I knew and I'm comfortable to talk about her, but our relationship was very mixed with a lot of love, but I also experienced quite a bit of abuse so I have mixed emotions about it.
 

It might make a good content to expose and talk about the idea of men having a mother wound.

This typically drives them to be adverse to committed relationships and to be overly promiscuous because they don't want the risk of being vulnerable with a woman due to their unhealed mother issues.

TURN YOURSELF AROUND FROM BEING A VICTIM AND A PLACE OF WOUNDS AND TURNING IT INTO WISDOM, DEVELOPMENT, HOPE AND PEACE AND ACTUALLY BE WHO YOU WANT TO BE."

Rob shared so much with me including his journey throughout Asia, he shared "I lived with tribes in the jungles of the Philippines, spent three months as the disciple of a Hindu monk in the Himalayas, trained under a Shaolin master in China, and later joined a troop of spear fishermen in Boracay who hunted in the deep daily to feed their community during the pandemic."

The lessons I gathered became the foundation of my book Unfiltered Wisdom, a raw look at resilience, self-discovery, and mental health from the inside out.

https://unfiltered-wisdom.com/the-book/

 

I admire Rob tremendously for all the work her's done to bring himself inner peace. It's an important lesson, that sometimes following conventional protocol for healing isn't beneficial to all. It's clear that bravery and desperation help us face our illnesses/issues but honesty is the most important thing-being honest with yourself and allow others to help.

But it was Mike's mother, Linda, who really concentrated on helping Mike with his OCD/ADHD.  He says, "she was very instrumental in trying to keep me active. It was very hard for her to see this disruptive behavior in her own child." Mike agrees that he was dealing with Impulse control negative attention issues.

Education was very important to Linda. She completed her PHD when Mike was a teen.  She was determined to help Mike figure out what interested him, what his strengths and attributes were and decided to concentrate on those gifts. 

Linda's grandfather had been a Rabbi in Ukraine. Her father died when she was in high school and mother had dyslexia and had never learned to read or write, so all of her past, played a major role in her passion for a solid education. She was determined to help her son overcome his educational challenges.

Linda got married at 19. In order to become a lab technician, she got her Batchelor's degree in Science and Medical Technology. "To show how important education was to her, she went back to school got her Masters Degree and then  in her 40's got a PHD in "Immigration History." Mike explains, "growing  up Jewish in Minnesota, was very rare. It was very interesting to see these immigration patterns that she lived through and seeing similar patterns repeating again today. Later on LInda started a historical society to study Jewish Immigration in the Upper Midwest.

Knowing her son's interests helped Linda come up with the idea for Mike to help her when she was cataloging information from those of her Jewish community who had passed away. Family members had donated diaries and personal information. These tasks were very detail oriented and she knew that was one of her son's many strengths. He created a useful database.

It was very hard for her to see this disruptive behavior in her own child." Mike agrees that he was dealing with Impulse control negative attention issues.

Education was very important to Linda. She completed her PHD when Mike was a teen.  She was determined to help Mike figure out what interested him, what his strengths and attributes were and decided to concentrate on those gifts. 

Linda's grandfather had been a Rabbi in Ukraine. Her father died when she was in high school and mother had dyslexia and had never learned to read or write, so all of her past, played a major role in her passion for a solid education. She was determined to help her son overcome his educational challenges.

Linda got married at 19. In order to become a lab technician, she got her Batchelor's degree in Science and Medical Technology. "To show how important education was to her, she went back to school got her Masters Degree and then  in her 40's got a PHD in "Immigration History." Mike explains, "growing  up Jewish in Minnesota, was very rare. It was very interesting to see these immigration patterns that she lived through and seeing similar patterns repeating again today. Later on LInda started a historical society to study Jewish Immigration in the Upper Midwest.

Knowing her son's interests helped Linda come up with the idea for Mike to help her when she was cataloging information from those of her Jewish community who had passed away. Family members had donated diaries and personal information. These tasks were very detail oriented and she knew that was one of her son's many strengths. He created a useful database.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

Apparently, this was something that was a precursor to ADHD. Early on, Mike's parents had discovered that their son had a wonderful mechanical aptitude.

Looking Back at S3E25 Robert is the middle child of nine, five girls and four boys. Because of his mother's health, the family packed up and moved to California from Minnesota. The warm, sunny weather of southern California helped with his mom's chronic pneumonia.  But the many lakes in Minnesota played a crucial role in Robert's  relationship with his mom, one that he'll never forget.

Robert says, my mother had a sunny personality, really cheerful. She looked at real estate as a matchmaker-match people together with a beautiful home."

Joan lost her mom, Robert's maternal grandmother, when she was four years old, so she never really knew how to cook. So she didn't have the traditional family recipes to fall back on each night.  However, she had a solid positive outlook and she truly knew her son really well.

When asked if he and his siblings had plenty of freedom and were off on their own and knew when to come home for dinner Robert says "everyone else kind of new when to come home for dinner. I was kind of the devious one."  The thing that hurt him more than anything was when his mom would say "I'm very disappointed in you." To this day Robert says " I didn't want to disappoint my mother."

Believe it or not, it was Robert's mom who busted him for shoplifting as a young boy. Robert says "I was a master shoplifter when I was a kid. "I was always hungry" continues Boog. But my mom eventually asked me for the receipts. she knew and put a stop to  it. Again, he didn't want to disappoint his mom. 

Robert's a smart guy. As a kid he skipped a few grades with the support of one of his older sisters. He got a scholarship to USLA  and graduated with a BA in Literature . He's written a few books, including real estate books as well as "Shakey's Madness - Does  A Mental Disorder Reveal The Real William Shakespeare" and "Hang Shakespeare. Robert also likes to dabble in song writing. 

As the 5th of the 9 kids, smack dab in the middle, Robert became a good negotiator. He shares some fun stories of what it was like at the dinner table and who had what chores and responsibilities. 

Joan had a profound impact on her son.  So much so, that he's still successfully running the business that she started way back when. She offered her son a ticket to go see the legendary sales trainer/realtor, Tom Hopkins, and it changed Robert's life. He realized that there was quite a bit more to real estate than he thought. 

Fortunately or unfortunately it was out of fear that motivated Joan to start working when Robert was a teen. Due to traumatic family circumstances, she realized that she needed to get a job. If anything happened to her husband, she needed to be able to put food on the table and take care of her children.

Robert lives in Valencia, CA.

There's so much more to this story. Hope you enjoy the listen.

Looking Back at S3E23 Ruth was one year old when she and her family arrived in the United States from Wertheim am Main, Germany in 1938 according to Jonathan Ramsfelder, Ruth's son. A time of confusion, despair and relief,  yet so much regret for members of her  family that were left behind to the inevitable Nazi genocide of European Jews.  Ruth was the last Jewish baby born in Wertheim am Main.

Ruth's family was upper middle class cattle dealers in Germany yet once in the US, they lived in poverty and worked whatever jobs they could to provide for the family including manuel labor as  maids, painters, dishwashers, etc. "Regardless of their hardship, they were loving and sought happiness," declares Ramsfelder.  " Mom grew up in  a very structured environment while being raised by two traumatized refugees." Jonathan continues with wonder as he shares the stories that have been repeated to him over the years. He's amazed at how his "maternal grandparents were lovely and embracing of life," in spite of their hardships. "The family educated themselves and embraced each other," continues Jonathan. 

Ruth went to school through high school and her son feels that she's one of the most intelligent people he knows. Had she been born at a different time, Jonathan believes that she would have been able to accomplish great things and work at a Fortune 500 company and more. 

Even though her son knows that "his mom suffered from her past, she was often demonstrating gratitude and contentment-they are my mom's hallmarks."  

According to Jonathan, "Ruth is his role model and she's very instrumental in him becoming who he is today. She's outgoing and loves to meet people, she's put together cognitively, a reader of people and great at getting advice- not a judge of people." 

Ruth was steadfast in her optimistic ways, bound to be grateful and appreciative as well as inquisitive. Jonathan knew from an early age that based on his parents past and the trauma they had endured, he would never be able to disappoint them. Instead he says "that he used his parents experience as a source of encouragement  and ambition."

So many wonderful life lessons to learn from my conversation with Jonathan about his  mother, Ruth. You can't ever give up hope in humanity  is one  of my take aways.

There's so much more to this story so please listen to the episode and I've also attached Jonathan Ramsfelder's story 

that he posted on LInkedIn  in honor of his mother on Holocaust Remembrance Day 2022:

**********************************************************************************************

This is a photo of me and my mom, Ruth Ramsfelder, the last Jewish person born in her home town of Wertheim am Main, Germany. Tonight and tomorrow mark Holocaust Remembrance Day or, in Hebrew, Yom Hashoah.

This is a photo of a Holocaust survivor and her son, myself, a product of two refugees who experienced childhood trauma through persecution, dislocation, the murder of their family members and, upon arriving in the U.S. in 1938 and 1939 (my mom and my dad, respectively) poverty.

This is a photo of a woman who didn't have the opportunity to advance her education beyond high school but who is one of the most intelligent people (IQ and EQ) I have ever met.

Resilience, positive outlook, compassion for others, kindness and good decision making are her signature attributes, along with networking and relationship‐building skills that could have catapulted her to the top of the corporate ladder had she been born 60 years later and not in a country bent on marginalizing (and ultimately exterminating) all of its Jewish citizens.

This is a photo that proves that Hitler lost, the Jewish People are still here and that we will continue on.

This is a photo of the last Jewish baby born in Wertheim am Main.

Never forget.

Resilience, positive outlook, compassion for others, kindness and good decision making are her signature attributes, along with networking and relationship‐building skills that could have catapulted her to the top of the corporate ladder had she been born 60 years later and not in a country bent on marginalizing (and ultimately exterminating) all of its Jewish citizens.

This is a photo that proves that Hitler lost, the Jewish People are still here and that we will continue on.

This is a photo of the last Jewish baby born in Wertheim am Main.

Never forget.

 

"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.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

She learned everything she knew about raising and caring for animals and growing crops from her parents  and the land she grew up on.  

Because of her experience on the farm plus her ability to drive and operate farm machinery, etc, she was available to help out her country during WWII. This enabled her to be active during the Land Army, in New Zealand. Josh shares how she had a wonderful sense of humor (Irish family roots), taught Josh how to sew, cook, play cards, knit and so much more. 

Josh willingly admits that he was a mama's boy and as he says he "hung onto her apron strings."

As Josh was getting ready to move away from home for a new job, he was desperate to share a very personal story with his mother. She'd already survived breast cancer shortly after her was born, but now the cancer was back. She refused chemo and radiation, so Josh was afraid this might me the last time he'd see his mother. Just as he was about to go out the door, he spoke to his mother and revealed what he'd been hiding inside for decades.  She was un perplexed and finished his statement before he had a chance to share what he wanted to say.  That was just a little bit of the magic of Pattie.

She regularly took care of her neighbors. Whether because of an illness or just in need of company, she was always there to help other. Pattie was also very curious, especially regarding her friends and neighbors in this rural farming area. Josh shares some very funny stories about the phone in his house.

The work that Josh is doing with "The Litter Club Network is so important. He's getting the community involved not only in Phuket, Thailand but also in Malaysia and Singapore. 

Here's more about Josh O'Neill:

I'm Josh O'Neill, a Certified Green Project Manager (GPM-b), sustainability advocate, and experienced public speaker & voice coach dedicated to driving meaningful change and environmental stewardship.

At a young age, Solomea lost her hearing mainly because of two illnesses, Menangitis and Scarlett Fever. At the time, she was luckily old enough that she had learned to speak and read, so she adapted by learning how to read lips. 

Andy tells this heartwarming story of his mother's love  in his latest book, "A Promise Kept: A Tribute To A Mother's Love."  And Andy didn't know any of his mother's background and experiences until he was fifty years old. And he kept his promise to his mother to help others that were in need and indeed he has.

Solomea was a young child when she and her family witnessed the "Nazi occupation of Poland and then the Soviet occupation of Western Ukraine," explains Mr. Semotiuk. His mom, was one of the first refugees to flee war torn Europe to Immigrate to North America.

A life filled with challenges, loss of love, family and yet she never gave up. Years later, as a single mother, she was able to put her son through law school. Andy explains, "I watched my mother put me through law school on her hands and knees, washing floors." 

Mother and son had a very special bond. I don't think that a day goes by that Andy doesn't think and thank his mother for all that she's taught him and all that she did for him.

Andy Semotiuk has also written a book entitled, "Solomea." Solomea, his great Aunt, was his grandmother's sister.  She was also a very,  successful leading dramatic soprano opera singer, but unfortunately WWII got in the way of her lengthy career. She performed with Enrico Caruso, Arturo Toscanini, Giacomo Puccini

There is so much more to this story. I hope you enjoy the listen. I have so much respect for Solomea, Andy's mother. She endured so much, yet she always landed on her feet. She connected with wonderful women that helped her along this complicated and challenging journey. 

Imagine immigrating to a new, unknown country, not speaking the language, not being able to hear, having no money or family. And yet Solomea prevailed and raised a wonderful son who is happily helping others in need of legal immigration services.

It was a pleasure to speak with Paul and share this eye opening story of a young woman who wasn't afraid to step out alone.

By the age of nine, Andy still never knew who his biological father was. Yet it was an honor for Andy to take the sir name of the gentleman who Andy referred to as his "grandfather/grandpa," who's name was William Semotiuk.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Throughout her life, Rachel has travelled and lived in London, Hong King and Tel Aviv. Now she lives in Manhattan and says she "pretty much lives for cooking and entertaining.  The history of food, it's culture and migration, as well as its ability to bring people together over a diverse and lively table is why I love what I do."  It's been ten years since she and her co-founders, Lisa Mendelson and Monica Molenaar, began Seed + Mill.

As a little girl, Rachel's has fond memories of running through her grandparent's gardens in Zimbabwe, climbing avocado and mango trees. This was the beginning of her passion for what she enjoys today. What she began to understand as she got a little older was her grandparents experience immigrating to Africa from Prague, formerly referred to as the capital city of Czechoslovakia.  Today, Prague is the capital of the Czech Republic.  Her grandparents were Holocaust survivors and fled Prague in order to begin a new life. Jane ,Rachel's mother, was born and lived in Zimbabwe until she was about eighteen years old. 

Jane eventually fell in love, got married, moved to London then settled in Sydney, Australia with her husband. My guest shares wonderful stories of her mother, Jane.  "She was incredibly generous, passionate about many things, loved to share whatever she was interested in, whether with her family, or share with her friends and neighbors. Whatever she was excited about she loved to share with other people. She was a horticulturalist and a physical therapist." Jane also worked in obstetrics helping pregnant women and post-natal mothers.

In looking back at Jane's childhood, "it was different from what it looked like from the outside. Her parents had been traumatized because of their experience as Holocaust survivors.  They were trying to rebuild their lives, but it had taken a toll on all of them. That experience, Rachel shares, "impacted mom's sense of identity."

Jane was brave and resilient, according to Rachel. "She longed for nurture and really deep and meaningful relationships with people. She received and she gave that encouragement in equal measures."

When asked if Rachel felt safe and secure in her home growing up, her response was, "I always felt safe and secure and felt lots of love from my mother. In lots of ways, in an unconscious and  unspoken way, I was always worried about her mental health. I could feel that generational trauma from my grandmother to my mother and now probably to me. And I am mindful of this to my own daughter."

This is such a loving and beautiful story of women who loved one another unconditionally, yet there were barriers that couldn't be broken.

Though Rachel's mother has passed away, Rachel says she speaks with her everyday. She visited her mother in Australia several time in her last remaining monthsand weeks.  As she was by her mother's bedside, she wrote her most recent cook book "Sesame."   She turned in her transcript for the book and the very next day, her mother passed away.

Rachel is so proud of all that her mother did for she and her younger sister. "She was always committed and worked really hard. She filled her time and days and relationships to not feel her own pain."

Thank you for being so open and honest Rachel.  It was an absolutely pleasure to meet your mum through your eyes and your heart.

She's recently published a cookbook titled "Sesame," which she dedicated to her mother, Jane as well as her grandparents.

Looking Back at S3E22 Grace is first generation Italian Australian. Her parents immigrated from Southern Italy to Australia when they were  young. Rosa and Alfredo, Grace's parents, met many years later in Australia and started their family of four girls.  Rosa was one of nine children and she was  fifteen when landing in Australia. Alfredo lost both his parents at five years old and had a rough childhood.  He was a victim of abuse and moved from house to house as a child. De Angeli reflects saying "he did the best he could with what he had."

Grace insists "that it was a cultural thing" as to why her mother stayed throughout  many years of emotional, verbal and physical abuse. Eventually, Grace and her younger sister became targets as well.  It was always the fear and bullying tactic that their father used especially against their mom, Rosa. Grace says that her father would often scream at her mother "you either stay or you die" or "you leave, I'll kill you." So her mother stayed out of fear.  "We were all brought up with the fear that if we did something wrong we would be killed," remarks Grace. "When I think back to my childhood I wasn't protected by my mother, but she taught me who not to be when I grew up."

One would think that this would take a real tole on Grace's life and her future. But the best news is that with the help of her husband and many others, Grace has learned how to transform her life and heal from her scars of her father plus how to beat Breast Cancer with many different treatments and therapies including Eastern and Western Medicines, mind over matter and the list goes on and on. She is a true inspiration. She declares "it doesn't matter where you are in your journey, whether stage 1 or stage 4 breast cancer OR any illness, you need to get things right in your soul and spirit, where you are your most authentic self." She continues, "it doesn't matter as long as you are honest and liberated within yourself, it doesn't matter what happens next."

For a young woman who at twenty one years old had contemplated suicide, to becoming this force of nature to heal not only herself but help others on their individual journey is remarkable.

There's so much more to this story so please do listen to the episode in it's entirety. Grace is emphatic when saying "we were put on this planet to be ourself. If you can be the best version of yourself, you've done it."

His interactions with the animals wasn't only unique and intriguing, but I found a sense of calm come over me. Plume was lucky enough to have been surrounded by women all of his life. These same women are a big part of how and why he's on this journey now.  I'm so happy we were able to have a conversation, not only about his new bond with his animal audience, but he's also lending a different perspective on life and what's important. My guest's videos have a very calming effect on his audience. Yet, in seeing how the animals interact with Plume brings a smile to my face and a more human perspective to the magic of the beautiful four and two legged creatures he interacts with.

Currently, Valerie, Plume's mother, is part of his production crew, as his camera-woman. She has always been very supportive of his work.

His maternal grandmother, Paule and her three sisters helped raise Plume since a child.  Paule is still very present in his life today. She plays the piano and has a wonderful sense of humor and attitude about life. And we also had an opportunity to hear about Elsa, Plume's girlfriend, who Plume says is a constant source of support and love. As a creative, Plume says "it can be hard to believe in yourself and in what you're doing," and Elsa has always been there to encourage him.

Growing up in France, Plume was introduced to cows nearby to his grandmother's home. HIs grandmother's sister, who knew the cows the best, reassured him at a young age, that they were friendly, kind and curious.

One of the more rare and distinct animals that Plume has encountered is an okapi. An okapi is not a true "mix" of animals but is the only living relative of the giraffe.

I thoroughly enjoyed meeting my guest and sharing his story of bountiful love and support from the many important women in his life. And my guest is also very gracious and sincere when he says he's so fortunate to get get the opportunity to share his love of music with these beautiful creatures in the preserves and his human audience around the world wide.

She was just warm and loving and forgiving and nurturing. She taught us to love and be loved," reflects Amy.

"To be loving and kind to one another" Amy explains, "mom gave me the gift of solice and comfort. She was happy being in the shadows. In big gatherings ...

Amy says mom gave her the  gifts of curiosity and independence. She considers herself a late bloomer. Betty was happy that Amy was able to move 3000 miles away on her own terms and create and live your own dreams.

Nancy shares a wonderful story of a mother's love for her daughter. Nancy was a punk rocker and was heckled by some local teens, but Betty went full on riot act and defended her daughter and her orange hair. Betty stood up for her daughter. She taught Nancy how to stand up for herself and not let anyone take advantage of you.

According to my guests, their mother had a very quiet and kind demeanor yet the Harrington kids had a phrase regarding their mother "don't mess with my chickens."  

"What you should do, is....," was one of their mom's familiar phrases for Nancy and her siblings . Their mother had studied to be an art teacher, had children and she was a substitute teacher at her daughter's Catholic school. She taught her children all kinds of things without the help of the internet. It didn't exist back then, but she was a wonderful natural teacher.

When Nancy and Amy's parents met, Betty and her family represented everything their father did not have. Their dad, one of nine children lost his mom as a baby and his father, my guest's grandfather, couldn't keep a stable household. My guest's parents were able to pass on the significance of a safe and loving family environment. And their mother became the shield that protected her children from any issues that would arise.

The Passionistas Equality Summit happens annually focusing on marginalized women from their community. These women wanted someone who had their b ack. Launched the Passionistas Project Sisterhood in March 2024. Women can come and be themselves and lift themselves up. It's not just business networking, it's personal growth and social impact. Women don't need to show up with a business card and be all buttoned up and pretend everything.

Amy says this is a story of a woman who put family before everything including herself. Taught her children how to love one another other and be good stewards in the world. The Harrington house was a place where any and all kids who needed a place where they felt safe were welcome. From the time I was little, we had friends who were gay, different ethnic backgrounds, the kids who's parents worked all night and had no dinner. we learned that  our lives were richer because we knew all these people and their lives were richer because they were accepted, explains Amy.  Our mother was a loving and caring human being, possibly the most loving and caring being you could possibly imagine.  Nancy adds "she was someone who loved unconditionally and she gone too soon."

Amy and Nancy feel that the common bond that holds their family together, the driving force in all of their lives was based on creativity.  Both mom and dad were very creative. Had she been born in a different era, she would have been Indiana Jones. She also love the simple things in life including ice cream and cooking.

Both my guests agree that their mother encouraged all her children "to dream big and go for it." She wanted her children to be themselves. Betty loved her children for who they were.

*Women's Equality Day is Monday, August 25th. The Power of Passionistas Summit is taking place August 26 through August 28th, 2025. More information at https://www.thepassionistasproject.com/.

She was just warm and loving and forgiving and nurturing. She taught us to love and be loved," reflects Amy.

"To be loving and kind to one another" Amy explains, "mom gave me the gift of solice and comfort. She was happy being in the shadows. In big gatherings ...

Amy says mom gave her the  gifts of curiosity and independence. She considers herself a late bloomer. Betty was happy that Amy was able to move 3000 miles away on her own terms and create and live your own dreams.

Nancy shares a wonderful story of a mother's love for her daughter. Nancy was a punk rocker and was heckled by some local teens, but Betty went full on riot act and defended her daughter and her orange hair. Betty stood up for her daughter. She taught Nancy how to stand up for herself and not let anyone take advantage of you.

According to my guests, their mother had a very quiet and kind demeanor yet the Harrington kids had a phrase regarding their mother "don't mess with my chickens."  

"What you should do, is....," was one of their mom's familiar phrases for Nancy and her siblings . Their mother had studied to be an art teacher, had children and she was a substitute teacher at her daughter's Catholic school. She taught her children all kinds of things without the help of the internet. It didn't exist back then, but she was a wonderful natural teacher.

When Nancy and Amy's parents met, Betty and her family represented everything their father did not have. Their dad, one of nine children lost his mom as a baby and his father, my guest's grandfather, couldn't keep a stable household. My guest's parents were able to pass on the significance of a safe and loving family environment. And their mother became the shield that protected her children from any issues that would arise.

The Passionistas Equality Summit happens annually focusing on marginalized women from their community. These women wanted someone who had their b ack. Launched the Passionistas Project Sisterhood in March 2024. Women can come and be themselves and lift themselves up. It's not just business networking, it's personal growth and social impact. Women don't need to show up with a business card and be all buttoned up and pretend everything.

Amy says this is a story of a woman who put family before everything including herself. Taught her children how to love one another other and be good stewards in the world. The Harrington house was a place where any and all kids who needed a place where they felt safe were welcome. From the time I was little, we had friends who were gay, different ethnic backgrounds, the kids who's parents worked all night and had no dinner. we learned that  our lives were richer because we knew all these people and their lives were richer because they were accepted, explains Amy.  Our mother was a loving and caring human being, possibly the most loving and caring being you could possibly imagine.  Nancy adds "she was someone who loved unconditionally and she gone too soon."

Amy and Nancy feel that the common bond that holds their family together, the driving force in all of their lives was based on creativity.  Both mom and dad were very creative. Had she been born in a different era, she would have been Indiana Jones. She also love the simple things in life including ice cream and cooking.

Both my guests agree that their mother encouraged all her children "to dream big and go for it." She wanted her children to be themselves. Betty loved her children for who they were.

*Women's Equality Day is Monday, August 25th. The Power of Passionistas Summit is taking place August 26 through August 28th, 2025. More information at https://www.thepassionistasproject.com/.

Looking Back at S3E20 Nadia Turner was the #8 finalist on the 4th season of American Idol (2005) and Zareh, also know as Za, was only four years old. In the spring of 2022  Zareh, then  21,  auditioned for AI and surprised her mother when she took her to the audition.  Zareh   performed “Bust Out Your Windows” by Jazmine Sullivan, which impressed the judges.

It was such a pleasure to have a conversation with both mother and daughter at the same time, to share stories of  Nadia's mom and grandmother as well as  Za's perspective of her mother and grandmother -we're talking about four generations of strong women.

Nadia says she's a very different parent today than she was in her 20's and a college student when Za was born. She's very grateful because she always new that her mother was going to be there to help her raised her two daughters.  Zareh  completely understands why her younger sister is being raised differently than she was. Zareh says that her mom was very strict when she was young but now she understands and appreciates why and respects her mother's decisions. It was, at times, overwhelming raising Zareh when Nadia was younger but now she's got a different attitude about raising her younger daughter, she  concentrates on the things that are important, the things that really matter. 

Rosita, Nadia's mother, originally from the island of St. Eustatius, was a single mom who worked 9-5 at an electric company. "There's never been a time when she didn't show up for me" reflects Nadia. Rosita was very supportive of her daughter, whether it was sports or a school activity, she was always there for her regardless if she truly understood her daughters passions or interests.  "I couldn't have done this thing called motherhood with out my mother, Rose," says Turner.

Nadia spent quite a bit of time with her maternal grandmother, Esme, Rosita's mother.  Nadia  remembers her grandmother as "being my Zen, my peace, always very quiet and calm." She continues "she was very religious and always humming her hymns, she never raised her voice and for some reason, that moved mountains for me." When Nadia was a child and she and her mother got into an argument,  Nadia recalls simply sitting quietly next to her grandmother and holding her hand which made everything feel alright.

There's so much more to learn about my two guests and the influential women that helped them become who they are today. Always so grateful for the mothers/grandmothers and female family members who preceded us to lay down the groundwork and straightened path to keep us moving forward.

When I asked Za if she stands a little taller because of these strong women in her life she responds, "my grandmother and mother are my biggest idols. I look up to them for everything they do. We are a family full of women. My grandmother is present no matter what's going on. I'm so grateful and definitely stand taller."

There's so much more to these two magnificent women. Hope you enjoy the conversation.

Dorothy was the eldest of two children. Her younger brother was well taken care of and able to continue on to higher education, mainly because he was male and in that era, women didn't really pursue higher education because culturally, that wasn't the norm.  Women's place was in the home and raising the children.

One of the many things that my guest admired about her mother was that she opened up her own Children's Clothing store. Gertrude loved seeing her mom running a business that she was truly good at and enjoyed. Gertrude loved seeing a different side of her mother's personality, outside the home vs inside the home.

Unfortunately, the store only lasted so long because of Gertrude's father's wishes. Yes, he was supportive but only up to a certain point. He also gave Dorothy an ultimatum and Dorothy agreed and made some very difficult choices that very same day and never broke her promise.  The couple did not have a particularly close relationship. Gertrude's dad worked and provided for the family and the two remained married for 27 years.

You will hear Gertrude share stories of the secrets her mother kept her entire life. Gertrude is so impressed and bewildered by her mother's ability to keep all of these compelling stories to herself and still be a mother, raise her children, run her own  business and then continue on with another career working as an office secretary for the railroad in Detroit. 

One of the many wonderful philosophies my guest believes in is that she believes that she chose her mother for "my soul's development."  In other words, she continues, "my soul had reasoning and she was the perfect mother for me. We are together for a reason, admits Dr. Lyons.

Gertrude also shares stories of the process of writing her book as well as being brave when coming to choosing the title of her book, etc.

About The Book

In Rewrite the Mother Code, Dr. Gertrude Lyons challenges the limiting beliefs and expands the concepts around what it is to be a mother. Through the pages of this book, Lyons blurs the lines that pigeonhole women into limited roles that ultimately disempower them. Rather than operating within a narrow conception of what mothering is, she invites readers to open themselves up to what is possible and see the truth: that all women mother, and that mother energy is accessible to all of us-including men. Rewrite the Mother Code is a celebration of motherhood, bringing spirituality and community back into the experience and empowering women to be what they truly are, the ultimate creators.

What it would be like if it was a commonly held tradition for the wise women in our Western culture to support women through the mothering process? What if children were raised by the community and not the isolated responsibility of one or two caregivers? What if all women were united as mothers and gave their full support to each other’s mothering choices? Rewrite the Mother Code not only envisions this world of conscious conception, pregnancy, and motherhood, but it also takes the reader into a movement that fulfills the ideals of a matriarchal-led mothering experience.

These ideals can open the doors for women to not only take part in the abundance of the world, but also make sure everyone else experiences it. Rewrite the Mother Code explores a world in which mothers feel valued and intrinsically aware that fostering their well-being is the keystone for conscious and harmonious living on earth—a world where there are enough resources for everyone, all life is valued, and decisions are made with everyone's best interests in mind, not just a few. It's a world where mothers are revered for their abilities to create (even ones without their own children, who journey through motherhood in many creative ways), a place where we can tap into our intuition and truly follow it.

Rewrite the Mother Code blurs the lines that pigeonhole women into limited roles that ultimately disempower them. Rather than operating with a narrow conception of what mothering is, it invites you to open yourself up to what is possible when you realize that all women mother, and that mother energy is accessible to all of us—including men.

In Rewrite the Mother Code, Dr. Gertrude Lyons shares her vast expertise, using her doctoral degree in education, combined with her degrees in psychology, transformational leadership, and her two decades as a coach for families, couples, and individuals. She has traveled the world and had spiritual experiences across the globe, which she brings into her work and writing.

Each chapter of Rewrite the Mother Code has thoughtfully tailored reflections, meditations, and rituals to help women get in touch with their innate mother wisdom and strength. This book is a ceremony and celebration of all forms of motherhood, one that collectively births a new revolution of empowered and embodied living.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Her younger brother was well taken care of and able to continue on to higher education, mainly because he was male and in that era, women didn't really pursue higher education because culturally, that wasn't the norm.  Women's place was in the home and raising the children.

One of the many things that my guest admired about her mother was that she opened up her own Children's Clothing store. Gertrude loved seeing her mom running a business that she was truly good at and enjoyed. Gertrude loved seeing a different side of her mother's personality, outside the home vs inside the home.

Unfortunately, the store only lasted so long because of Gertrude's father's wishes. Yes, he was supportive but only up to a certain point. He also gave Dorothy an ultimatum and Dorothy agreed and made some very difficult choices that very same day and never broke her promise.  The couple did not have a particularly close relationship. Gertrude's dad worked and provided for the family and the two remained married for 27 years.

You will hear Gertrude share stories of the secrets her mother kept her entire life. Gertrude is so impressed and bewildered by her mother's ability to keep all of these compelling stories to herself and still be a mother, raise her children, run her own  business and then continue on with another career working as an office secretary for the railroad in Detroit. 

One of the many wonderful philosophies my guest believes in is that she believes that she chose her mother for "my soul's development."  In other words, she continues, "my soul had reasoning and she was the perfect mother for me. We are together for a reason, admits Dr. Lyons.

Gertrude also shares stories of the process of writing her book as well as being brave when coming to choosing the title of her book, etc.

About The Book

In Rewrite the Mother Code, Dr. Gertrude Lyons challenges the limiting beliefs and expands the concepts around what it is to be a mother. Through the pages of this book, Lyons blurs the lines that pigeonhole women into limited roles that ultimately disempower them. Rather than operating within a narrow conception of what mothering is, she invites readers to open themselves up to what is possible and see the truth: that all women mother, and that mother energy is accessible to all of us-including men. Rewrite the Mother Code is a celebration of motherhood, bringing spirituality and community back into the experience and empowering women to be what they truly are, the ultimate creators.

What it would be like if it was a commonly held tradition for the wise women in our Western culture to support women through the mothering process? What if children were raised by the community and not the isolated responsibility of one or two caregivers? What if all women were united as mothers and gave their full support to each other’s mothering choices? Rewrite the Mother Code not only envisions this world of conscious conception, pregnancy, and motherhood, but it also takes the reader into a movement that fulfills the ideals of a matriarchal-led mothering experience.

These ideals can open the doors for women to not only take part in the abundance of the world, but also make sure everyone else experiences it. Rewrite the Mother Code explores a world in which mothers feel valued and intrinsically aware that fostering their well-being is the keystone for conscious and harmonious living on earth—a world where there are enough resources for everyone, all life is valued, and decisions are made with everyone's best interests in mind, not just a few.

Ulia Zavacka ( pronounced Zavatski), was one of a very large farming family whose homeland today is in the North Eastern Slovakia. Today the general Rusyn population stretches across what is five European countries, including Ukraine, Slovakia, Romania, Hungary and Poland. Officials say that at the turn of the 20th century, approximately 250,000 Ruthenians, as they were known to US Immigration officials, emigrated to America where they worked in coal mines and steel mills of the northeast. Many settled in the Pittsburg. PA area. Rusyns spoke east slavic dialects that used the Cyrillic alphabet. 

Elaine and I spoke a lot about the similarities of both women. Julia followed her husband to America eventually having three sons and not speaking much English.  Nancy, Elaine's mother, had a huge advantage and was born in the United States and spoke two languages at a young age. Both women had Carpatho-Rusyn backgrounds. 

It was a tough time to raise a family especially in the Pittsburgh area yet Andy's father was a good business man and was able to put some money away for Andy  to go to college. Elaine shares stories of her mother moving to New York City at age of thirteen in order to help her family financially as a housekeeper/nanny/servant, as you'll hear Elaine tell the story. By moving to NYC, Nancy met her future husband who has a similar background as she. Keep in mind, that making money to help the family put food on the table was way more important than any kind of education.  Nancy eventually married a coal miner from Pennsylvania and fellow Rusyn which was comforting to her. 

Both of these families had lingering effects of being immigrants and children of immigrants. Of parents parenting similarly as to how they had been parented.  They had a lot to overcome and it can take decades if not generations to assimilate.

Elaine's academic studies where shocking to her parents. They couldn't really understand why she continued with higher education because that was very foreign to both of them.

And course, Andy went to what's now known as Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh and completed a Bachelor of Fine Art Degree in 1949.

Julia was an artist of her own right. She was very creative especially when she was younger and in her home country. So much of her artistic talent influenced Andy and they worked closely together on projects for many years as she lived in Manhattan with Andy for almost twenty years. Julia was featured in his artistic projects with his coworkers on a regular basis.

I was so excited to have Elaine join we for this conversation which was recorded in June 2025. We had met prior to this recording at the New York City Public Library in April of 2025, when she gave a talk on her most recent book, "Andy Warhol's Mother, The Woman Behind the Artist." It was an absolute treat to have conversations with her on both of these occasions. Nancy, Elaine's mother, or Baba as her grandchildren referred to her was just a few years younger that Julia, Andy Warhol's mother. Julia was an immigrant and Nancy was born her in the US, yet they both have Rusyn roots. If you search the Carpatho/Rusyn ethnic group, this is what you'll find- "Carpatho-Rusyns are an East Slavic ethnic group inhabiting the Carpathian Mountains region of Central Europe. They are also known as Rusyns, Ruthenians, or Rusnaks and speak a language also called Rusyn. Their homeland is a borderland region encompassing parts of southwestern Ukraine, northeastern Slovakia, and southeastern Poland." This history alone was so interesting to me. I hope you enjoy this episode. Elaine Rusinko joins me this week on the show. I was so excited to have Elaine join we for this conversation which was recorded in June 2025.

After watching her mother struggle in an attempt  to start her own business and fail, Sophee felt so much 'self doubt' that she never thought she'd be capable of  starting her own.  Again, interesting dynamics between the two women often got in the way. Payne feels that her mom likes having people around so they can do things for her that she doesn't necessarily like to do. "She demands a lot from the people closest to her," admits Sophee. "I think of her as a sun, even from a distance I can feel this warmth, she gives direction, but at the same time, the closer you get the more uncomfortably warm you get  and also the more you're kind of forced to evolve around her," reflects Payne.

Sophee is comfortable saying what works for her now regarding her relationship with her mom.  It's about "showing my mom compassion, compassion with boundaries."

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

Looking Back at S3E13 sophee payne, should have listened to my mother podcast, jackie tantillo, shltmm 00:27:40 It took years for my guest to figure out what her relationship with her mom was really all about. Stemming from two very different yet similar personalities, the tug of war was a mix of "do I learn from my mom's mistakes and build on her experience OR do I run away and never look back," explains Payne. Over time, Sophee's learned she's capable of doing anything she wants, regardless of her mother's passed experience. Sophee Payne is a Career Coach and Counselor and because of years of self doubt, she never felt she could achieve her dream. Sophee feels she is who she today both because of and in spite of her mother and wishes she had had "the capacity to see that as imperfect as my mom was at the time, she was absolutely doing her best."

Looking Back at S3E17 Eunice was a confident hard working woman, that loved God, her country and her family. She was proud of her accomplishments and rightfully so.  

Chef Dennis is a successful classically trained chef, now retired and a very popular travel and food blogger. He prefers to cook for others rather than cook a meal for himself. His grandmother taught him a lot about food and cooking and she passed down "the joy of cooking." And now Dennis is sharing the 'joy of it' with all of his readers. You can find out more at https://www.askchefdennis.com/ 

Dennis's maternal grandparents were originally from Mexico and both were highly educated. His grandmother was a  teacher and his grandfather  a minister.  Eunice and her nine siblings were also all educated starting at a young age. All the children were born and raised in Texas and bilingual from an early age. Littley says of his mother's family "they were an all American family-all my uncles served in the Armed Forces and an uncle was at Pearl Harbor."  

Because Eunice was always studying and/or working, she never really had too much time to cook.  She often worked nights so she could be home to see  Dennis before and after school. Chef Dennis says that his mom, who he adored dearly, "influenced him and his love for cooking in an offhanded way." "Her lack of cooking skills and my love of food and her encouragement really helped push me in the right direction.  She was the reason I really started cooking and went int this field." says Littley.  

Dennis loved to cook for his mom and says  "I was never pressured into being a doctor or lawyer, my mother just wanted me to be happy."  But he took care of his mom as well. At a young age, he would collect recyclable bottles and cans, ride his bike to the supermarket and buy food with the money he made to cook for his mom because she didn't have time to cook for herself.  Dennis agrees that he gave his parents a hard time, a bit rambunctious, but he was named after the  'Dennis the Menace' tv character, after all.

My guest, got his first full time job at 12 years old and became manager of a burger place, flipping burgers at 13 in Atlantic City, New Jersey right on the ocean.

When asked what meal he'd cook for his mom if she were here today, Dennis reminisces about the rice, pepper, onion, bacon and cheddar cheese casserole his mom and he loved to eat till the dish was empty and everyone was happy.  Later on in life, once Eunice had retired from nursing, she was able to embrace her time in the kitchen with her friends and found the ‘joy of cooking’.

"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.

During my conversation with Marc, he shares story after story that had us laughing but Dorothy was the kind of woman who liked things done her way and it was best for everyone that you kept that in mind.

She loved keeping a clean house. It was duly important that her sons did well in school but what was clearly obvious was how much she loved her family. Dinners together every night was a must. Everyone had to share what happened during their day and what they had learned.

Marc has a number of very funny stories of his mother but what really rings true to me is that Dorothy had a huge heart. There's one story in particular that you'll hear my guest share that's heartbreaking yet so indicative of what kind of person Dorothy was and how she was constantly teaching her two sons life lessons.

"Seven Days of Shiva:Forty-Six Years of Puppy Love," has put Marc on the Amazon Best Selling Author list. It's the heartwarming and heartbreaking story of he and the love of his life, Barbara.

Our conversation will have you laughing and in tears, but it's powerful messages are worth every every second.

 

My mother began to list her “commandments” for being a good husband. 

Number 1: As a husband, you should learn to keep your mouth shut.

Number 2: Your wife should be in charge of running the household.

Number 3: It’s not your place to plan the dinner meals. Your wife should plan that, and you should be happy with it.

Number 4: Your wife should be in charge of the checking account.

Number 5: Your wife should be in charge of paying the bills.

Number 6: You should not cash your paycheck on the way home. Bring your check home, uncashed.

Number 7: You should turn down invitations from your friends at work to go out after work.

Number 8: You should go directly home after work to your wife.

Number 9: You shouldn’t concern yourself with what other people have. 

Number 10: You should be satisfied with what you and your wife have.

"When my mother was finished with her list, she said, “So, you understand what I’m saying?”

“Yes,” Marc responded.

During my conversation with Marc, he shares story after story that had us laughing but Dorothy was the kind of woman who liked things done her way and it was best for everyone that you kept that in mind.

She loved keeping a clean house. It was duly important that her sons did well in school but what was clearly obvious was how much she loved her family. Dinners together every night was a must. Everyone had to share what happened during their day and what they had learned.

Marc has a number of very funny stories of his mother but what really rings true to me is that Dorothy had a huge heart. There's one story in particular that you'll hear my guest share that's heartbreaking yet so indicative of what kind of person Dorothy was and how she was constantly teaching her two sons life lessons.

"Seven Days of Shiva:Forty-Six Years of Puppy Love," has put Marc on the Amazon Best Selling Author list. It's the heartwarming and heartbreaking story of he and the love of his life, Barbara.

Our conversation will have you laughing and in tears, but it's powerful messages are worth every every second.

 

My mother began to list her “commandments” for being a good husband. 

Number 1: As a husband, you should learn to keep your mouth shut.

Number 2: Your wife should be in charge of running the household.

Number 3: It’s not your place to plan the dinner meals. Your wife should plan that, and you should be happy with it.

Number 4: Your wife should be in charge of the checking account.

Number 5: Your wife should be in charge of paying the bills.

Number 6: You should not cash your paycheck on the way home. Bring your check home, uncashed.

Number 7: You should turn down invitations from your friends at work to go out after work.

Number 8: You should go directly home after work to your wife.

Number 9: You shouldn’t concern yourself with what other people have. 

Number 10: You should be satisfied with what you and your wife have.

"When my mother was finished with her list, she said, “So, you understand what I’m saying?”

“Yes,” Marc responded.

Looking Back at S3E16 Life sometimes has a funny way of turning out. Sometimes a dire situation presents itself and the outcome is much better than we could have ever imagined. In this particular case, it took a mother to show her true love, courage and support and possibly willingly risk jail time to prove  to her son that she loved him with her whole heart.  

While convalescing at home, Chisom finally was courageous enough to come out to his loving parents. Bedridden and home bound after his initial collapse, he was convinced it was time to open up to his parents about his sexuality. At a most vulnerable time in his life, he was scared and nervous about telling his parents the truth, that he was gay.  He was certain that both his parents loved him unconditionally but  was afraid this was going to be too much for them.  "Knowing that my parents loved me so much, made it that much easier to come out to them and be open with them," added Chisom. His mother's response was " I know, I've always known," says my guest.

On a grander scale, writing a personal essay about being a member of the LGBTQ community and  having his story published in the NY Times Modern Love Column was frighting.  Possibly the whole world could read it and find out the truth, that Chisom was a member of the gay community. Chisom's essay is an endearing story of his parent's love for their son. His mother, who's name is Gift, is exceptionally open and honest and loving of her son, regardless of his sexual preference. One can only hope, that everyone struggling with coming out to their loved ones, will receive the same openness and acceptance.

Chisom's message to his mother "You are a rock star. You are a gift to me. And I love you very much. Words can't describe how much I love you and how much you mean to me. Everything I do, I do it for you. You are always there for me and you always support me. You always tell me to shoot for the stars".

**In February 2021, Chisom has hired to be the Deputy Editor and Culture and Technology reporter  of @Livingfree_UK.  https://livingfreeuk.org/

"Living Free UK is a registered community interest company founded in 2018 out of the struggles of millions of LGBTIQ+ Africans who are still battling with their sexuality and gender identity, especially in countries where it is still illegal to live their truth and in some cases lose their lives while trying to find liberty and acceptance.

Our main aim is to provide support and validate the lived experiences of LGBTIQ+ Africans, people seeking asylum, and refugees. As research shows, there are 72 countries where homosexuality is still a crime and even in the UK, LGBTIQ+ Africans experience immense difficultly when finding a safe space to express themselves freely and openly without fear of racism, afrophobia, or prejudice of any kind. Some are also unable to return home because of the danger that awaits them.

**Now a budding journalist and recent nominee for a journalistic award- this is from Chisom's LinkedIn Acct. (March 2022)

"Yesterday  was the Future Awards Africa, and I was nominated for the journalism prize and was also the second youngest nominee in the awards. While I didn't win, I'm grateful for the opportunity to be seen.

As a young journalist covering policies and minority groups in Nigeria and Sub-Saharan Africa, the work I do can be pretty dangerous, but getting nominated for this is a "stepping stone," as my ma put it. Also, I did receive a certificate of nomination, so yay!!

Here is to more extraordinary things in 2022 and beyond because I am just getting started."

She was a wonderful mother but Sairan thought a bit too cautious which is very common for a teenager to think. Having a more conservative husband, Sadiqa loved all of her children equally and would often do anything for them. She was more lenient than her husband. My guest was one of seven children, safely nestled in the middle of the large group of children.

With no formal education, she never did any professional training, she was beautiful, had a wonderful sense of humor and did everything for her children as her husband travelled frequently for business. In Sairan's mind, her mother "had seven PHD's because she raised seven wonderful children, each one unique.

Unfortunately, Sadiqa died unexpectedly at fifty-eight years old and Sairan wasn't able to introduce her first child to her mother in person.

Sairan is a Business Strategist and Engineer but she also is helping people unpack their hidden gem. Often, we think we are happy-working, taking care of the family, seeing friends, etc. But, Sairan, who was born in Bagdad and now an Iraqi American citizen, learned many life lessons at 26 years old  when she came to the United States with her big American dreams. 

Today, she's a mom, entrepreneur and very successful engineer, but she's come to appreciate the belief of making and impact in the world and that obstacles can be overcome. "Voices of Truth" is a compilation of engaging speakers sharing their stories of impact. Sairan is one of the contributing authors.

As one can expect, being so far away from family, at such a young age, had it's challenges and heartbreak. And it was such an honor to hear Sairan share stories of her mother. Unfortunately, things didn't work out as planned back in 2002, but I'm grateful that Sairan felt comfortable opening up to me.

My guest has launched another career where she's helping middle aged women and men take their next steps in life to figure out who they are, what they want to do with their lives and what kind of impact they want to have on the world.

I received wonderful emails from Sairan including these wonderful tidbits about her mother. She wrote "my relationship with my mother has been both foundational and transformative. She was a woman of quiet strength and resilience, and while our bond wasn’t always expressed through words, her actions taught me the value of perseverance, integrity, and grace under pressure. She laid the groundwork for the woman I’ve become—both as an engineer and a business strategist—by modeling the power of showing up fully, even when the odds are stacked against you.

I was drawn to your podcast because I believe these stories matter. The influence of our mothers or female role models often shapes our identity in powerful, often subtle, ways. I wanted to share insights on how that influence—especially in midlife—can become a springboard for reinvention. For many women, midlife feels like a cross roads. But with the right mindset, it can be a launch pad.  That’s a message I hope will inspire your audience to reflect on their own journeys and the women who helped shape them."

There are many wonderful stories that Sairan shared with me. I hope you enjoy this episode. And take a part of  Sadiqa with you where ever you go.

She was a wonderful mother but Sairan thought a bit too cautious which is very common for a teenager to think. Having a more conservative husband, Sadiqa loved all of her children equally and would often do anything for them. She was more lenient than her husband. My guest was one of seven children, safely nestled in the middle of the large group of children.

With no formal education, she never did any professional training, she was beautiful, had a wonderful sense of humor and did everything for her children as her husband travelled frequently for business. In Sairan's mind, her mother "had seven PHD's because she raised seven wonderful children, each one unique.

Unfortunately, Sadiqa died unexpectedly at fifty-eight years old and Sairan wasn't able to introduce her first child to her mother in person.

Sairan is a Business Strategist and Engineer but she also is helping people unpack their hidden gem. Often, we think we are happy-working, taking care of the family, seeing friends, etc. But, Sairan, who was born in Bagdad and now an Iraqi American citizen, learned many life lessons at 26 years old  when she came to the United States with her big American dreams. 

Today, she's a mom, entrepreneur and very successful engineer, but she's come to appreciate the belief of making and impact in the world and that obstacles can be overcome. "Voices of Truth" is a compilation of engaging speakers sharing their stories of impact. Sairan is one of the contributing authors.

As one can expect, being so far away from family, at such a young age, had it's challenges and heartbreak. And it was such an honor to hear Sairan share stories of her mother. Unfortunately, things didn't work out as planned back in 2002, but I'm grateful that Sairan felt comfortable opening up to me.

My guest has launched another career where she's helping middle aged women and men take their next steps in life to figure out who they are, what they want to do with their lives and what kind of impact they want to have on the world.

I received wonderful emails from Sairan including these wonderful tidbits about her mother. She wrote "my relationship with my mother has been both foundational and transformative. She was a woman of quiet strength and resilience, and while our bond wasn’t always expressed through words, her actions taught me the value of perseverance, integrity, and grace under pressure. She laid the groundwork for the woman I’ve become—both as an engineer and a business strategist—by modeling the power of showing up fully, even when the odds are stacked against you.

I was drawn to your podcast because I believe these stories matter. The influence of our mothers or female role models often shapes our identity in powerful, often subtle, ways. I wanted to share insights on how that influence—especially in midlife—can become a springboard for reinvention. For many women, midlife feels like a cross roads. But with the right mindset, it can be a launch pad.  That’s a message I hope will inspire your audience to reflect on their own journeys and the women who helped shape them."

There are many wonderful stories that Sairan shared with me. I hope you enjoy this episode. And take a part of  Sadiqa with you where ever you go.

I cherished every minute of this conversation. As a Business Strategist, Sairan is offering a free 15 minute 1 on 1 consultation if you mention my name, Jackie Tantillo and my podcast Should Have Listened to my Mother.

She lives next door to her mother Kappie. My guests talk about their similarities and differences through out our conversation. And they both are very keen on helping young ladies figure out/work around all of life's stressors, especially beginning with the tween and teen years. 

"Pink Chaos-Navigating the Mother-Daughter Relationship with your Tween" is Shayna's book which helps mothers and daughters navigate the tween years. Shayna felt that tween girls need as much help and support as teens, but weren't getting the acknowledgement that they deserved. Tween age range is between 9-12 years of age.

Both women agree that they have a special connection, unlike most mother/daughter relationships because " concern for other people connect us in a way that is different from a lot of mother's and daughters," says Kappie. "This is a value that we are sharing" continues Shayna- "always taking care of people."

During her teen years, Shayna was wildly influenced by Madonna and her music. It was boldly reflected in the way she dressed and expressed herself which Kappie was happy that her daughter was expressing her self creativity.

Shayna and her sister were "latch-key"  kids because their mom was working full time. They kept themselves preoccupied with arts and craft projects such as Shrinky Dinks and more. 

When I asked Shayna if she felt her mom had any superpowers she said,  "she loved and took care of all of her students, her daughters, worked long hours and still had dinner on the table almost every night." 

"An education is something no one can take away from you," is what Kappie's mom reinforced throughout Kappie's childhood. Kappie was getting the message very early on in life about the significance of independence, be your own person, make your own way and don't necessarily be dependent on anyone else."

In Shayna's book and her practice, she offers a wealth of information that can be worked on at home between moms and daughters. It begins with the correct means of communication, doing things together that both have in common, getting to know what your daughter is truly interested, including getting to see what your daughter's algorithm on her phone is if you don't know already.

One statistic that I was shocked to hear is that girls confidence plummets by age of 9! 

If you go to Shayna's website "PINKCHAOS.COM" you can take a short quiz to find out which on-screen mother daughter duo you are.

In her book, Shayna talks about how you can teach your daughter the importance of self love, embracing self love-encourage her to speak to herself with kindness and compassion and lots more.

Some topics/issues that Shayna can help parents/girls with include building resilience, effective communication, promoting self worth, supporting friendships, navigating girl world, emotional regulation calming the chaos and embracing individuality.

She did not want to get a traditional job such as working in the postal service, as her father had dreamed she'd do.

Gwenda and her mother were very very close but unfortunately her mother died way too early.

In spite of her parents, Gwenda became a Catholic. She fell in love with Stephen's father who was Italian and catholic.Well he had already abandoned the Catholic church by the time they met, but she was certain she could convince this enthusiastic atheist to come back to the church.  And she was a success on both fronts. 

Stephen did not enjoy his experience being raised in the Catholic church and schools. As a young boy Stephen struggles with anxiety, stealing from local vendors, fights and more. 

Gwenda was a storyteller and that's one of manny gifts she gave to Stephen. Years later when Stephen was teaching Mindfulness lessons she came to some of his teachings.

Stephen left home in order to find himself. This journey had experiences of exploring Catholicism, Marxism, drugs, Buddhism, Mindfulness, compassion and more.

Years later while raising her children, Gwenda used the expression "never mind"  when Stephen would come to her hurt or upset. She was say "never mind" and offer a smile and have them move on. Stephen was looking for more than that from his mother.

My guest trained as a Buddhist Monk in the Tibetan tradition for eight years. To this day he still uses and teaches his practice and he enjoys applying his practice to real life situations and can help others without them knowing it's a Buddhist technique.  

I was looking for something but more importantly I was leaving behind stuff, everything," Stephen explains. Stephen asked his mother years later, why she hadn't protected him more from his father when he was younger . "She was angry at me for asking that, she was angry at herself. She thought she'd done what she could. She was protecting herself as well."

After reading Stephan's first draft of his book, "The Novice, Why I Became a Buddhist Monk", Gwenda said  "Don't you think it would have been nice if we'd listened to you a little more when you were young?" Stephen got very emotional. Their relationship changed so much for the better after that. She was acknowledging that they could have done more. That was what I wanted to hear.

Gwenda had a big heart. 

Bio:

Stephen has a fascinating story that could offer a unique perspective. His journey, shaped by both his mother and his unconventional upbringing, has deeply influenced his life and work. Growing up in a challenging environment, Stephen learned lessons from his family and from overcoming obstacles, which he now shares through his coaching and mindfulness framework. His story isn’t just about overcoming adversity but also about the lessons learned along the way, including how his relationship with his family, especially his mother, shaped his journey to becoming a Buddhist monk and later a TEDx speaker.

I believe his experiences of both struggling with and learning from his upbringing would provide a heartfelt and insightful conversation for your listeners, touching on themes of resilience, personal growth, and how those early life lessons shaped the person he is today.

My guest trained as a Buddhist Monk in the Tibetan tradition for eight years. To this day he still uses and teaches his practice and he enjoys applying his practice to real life situations and can help others without them knowing it's a Buddhist technique.  

I was looking for something but more importantly I was leaving behind stuff, everything," Stephen explains. Stephen asked his mother years later, why she hadn't protected him more from his father when he was younger . "She was angry at me for asking that, she was angry at herself. She thought she'd done what she could. She was protecting herself as well."

After reading Stephan's first draft of his book, "The Novice, Why I Became a Buddhist Monk", Gwenda said  "Don't you think it would have been nice if we'd listened to you a little more when you were young?" Stephen got very emotional. Their relationship changed so much for the better after that. She was acknowledging that they could have done more. That was what I wanted to hear.

Gwenda had a big heart. 

Bio:

Stephen has a fascinating story that could offer a unique perspective. His journey, shaped by both his mother and his unconventional upbringing, has deeply influenced his life and work. Growing up in a challenging environment, Stephen learned lessons from his family and from overcoming obstacles, which he now shares through his coaching and mindfulness framework. His story isn’t just about overcoming adversity but also about the lessons learned along the way, including how his relationship with his family, especially his mother, shaped his journey to becoming a Buddhist monk and later a TEDx speaker.

I believe his experiences of both struggling with and learning from his upbringing would provide a heartfelt and insightful conversation for your listeners, touching on themes of resilience, personal growth, and how those early life lessons shaped the person he is today.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Looking Back at S3E10 The details of the 2022 Ukraine/Russia conflict change minute by minute and hour by hour.  What's difficult for  my guest and her 80 year old mother,  Mariyka, to understand is how shocking this event is. Here we are in the 21st century, and Ukraine is under attack.  Certainly not plausible, but clearly possible. What makes this all the more difficult is the fact that Anya and her mom have many relatives still in the Ukraine today.  They've set up group chats on their phones to make sure that they can all stay in touch with updates regarding their safety and where-a-bouts.

The rich Ukrainian culture has played a significant role in my guest's life.  She attended the Ukrainian Cultural Center of NJ in Whippany, as a child growing up. She and her sibling, studied the language, traditions, history, etc. Anya also raised her own children  with the same ideation that their Ukrainian culture was very important and they too had to learn and understand the significance  of these traditions.  

In 1949, Mariyka's  family was sponsored by a German family and they were able to move to the US. However,  they moved to Wisconsin.  They often felt isolated. There was no family close by, yet they held on to their values, language and traditions. It was vital that they remember all that they had been through and because of their beliefs and strength they survived.

On the contrary, Anya's father, as a child moved directly to the lower east side of Manhattan with his family and were immersed in a rich Ukrainian culture 24/7. They had full support from their neighbors and community which helped them overcome their longing for their homeland.

The same patriotism  still exists today as it did long ago, when both mom and dad arrived in the United States and held utmost respect and longing for Ukraine. That's why Anya says of her relatives still in Ukraine today, "they are scared but there is not a single doubt in their minds that they need to stay. They love their country and they will fight to defend it."  They large family photo is from a 2011 trip to Ukraine with her mother and children to visit part of their immediate family still living there.

After working decades in Corporate America, at JP Morgan, Anya now works at a benchmarking organization helping businesses grow at The Learning Forum. Currently, she is on the Board of Directors for the Ukrainian Cultural Center as well  as fulfilling her role as Administrative Director at the School of Ukrainian Studies.

The Ukrainian American Cultural Center just outside Morristown, NJ  (https://uaccnj.org/)

is accepting donations for their humanitarian drive to send much needed supplies to Ukraine. You can find the full list of goods, including nonperishable food, clothing, blankets, warm clothing, etc at the link above.

 Anya ended this episode with a phrase that Ukrainian's are repeatedly using "Glory to Ukraine. Glory to the heroes."

Thank you for listening and thank you for contributing to aid the Ukrainians.

They have a wonderful relationship and Randee says "she's my best cheerleader."  A lot of that has to do with the honesty and open communication that they had from the very beginning-"adoption was normal, not a stigma, not a tragedy."  Also, Randee learned at a young age that just because you are blood related doesn't guarantee you a loving relationship.

Lois was definitely a role model to Randee. But Randee also feels that she learned from things that Lois did and didn't t do and then would form her own opinions. Randee had the luxury of knowing that her mom "always had my back.".

Unfortunately, growing up in the 70's, Randee's parents divorced and her mom went to work. She was able to get contract work, writing and editing government contracts. It was a stressful time for Lois, but she made the best of it. For example, her office didn't have a window, so she decided to put a picture of a window up on the wall. That made it feel so much better.

"The Only Song Worth Singing," was released April 2025 and "Leave No Trace" will be released August 2025.

In “The Only Song Worth Singing”, the power of friendship is one of the major themes blended with myth and the power of music. Imagine Irish folklore combined with mysticism – makes for a magical read.

She's also written Amazon Bestseller, Tune in Tomorrow and co-wrote the popular, The Law & Order: SVU Unofficial Companion and co-edited, Across the Universe: Tales of Alternative Beatles.

Randee Dawn's Bio:

Randee Dawn is a Brooklyn-based author and journalist focusing on speculative fiction across the categories (science-fiction, fantasy and horror) at night, while writing entertainment and lifestyle stories during the day for publications including Today.com, NBCNews.com, Variety, The Los Angeles Times and Emmy Magazine.

You may have seen my name in other publications over the years, including Soap Opera Digest and The Boston Phoenix, E! Online, New Musical Express and Mojo. I contributed to a French book about American television, Les Series Tele and co-authored (with Susan Green) The Law & Order: SVU Unofficial Companion.

I’ve got a fair amount of short fiction in anthologies, and authored the short story/poetry compilation Home for the Holidays. I’m currently  represented by Bridget Smith at JABberwocky Literary Agency, and I frequently appear at conventions and workshops on panels and to give readings.

My first novel, Tune In Tomorrow, was published by Solaris/Rebellion in 2022. Arc Manor will publish my next two novels in 2025: The Only Song Worth Singing (April) and Leave No Trace (August).

My degree in broadcast journalism from Boston University is occasionally useful, though I’m pleased to have a paralegal certificate from New York University.

Currently, I reside with the love of my life and an adorable West Highland Terrier (who is also quite lovable). No, I don’t have a fox, but if you want to meet a fox like this, JAB Canid Education and Conservation Center can help.  More information about Randee. https://creativecoachingpartners.newzenler.com/

They played the game "Who Are You" together regularly and Randee would respond "my name is Randee, I have blonde hair, I'm adopted," etc.There was no big secret or holding back of information till she was old enough to understand. Lois felt that Randee needed to know who she was from the very beginning. Nothing to be ashamed of, it was just a part of her. Professionally though, Randee tries to seek out the stories being told that underscore how your friends and adopted family matter as much if not more than your partners.

"She's always herself," beams Patrick.

Below is the first first email response that I got from Patrick having asked if he'd be interested in joining me on SHLTMM.

"Hey Jackie. Thanks for reaching out! I love this concept for a podcast. My story fits perfectly for this since she’s been a freelance true crime documentary writer for decades and she allowed me to feel confident in that space, just seeing her succeed and talking about the struggles in that space. I had a good role model. And also… she was the one who grounded me if I didn’t practice piano lol, and now I’m a professional pianist so… I owe it to her for a lot of who I am today 😊 I’d love to be one of your guests. Let me know next steps! Talk soon"!

Patrick'sBio:

Patrick Boylan is a skilled multi-instrumentalist with a deep passion for self-education. Despite eight years of traditional piano lessons, Patrick found the repetitive nature of practicing the same pieces uninspiring. Like many music students, he struggled with the conventional approach. However, when his teacher retired, Patrick began exploring his parents' sheet music on his own, selecting phrases he enjoyed and improvising around them. This self-directed experimentation not only reignited his interest in music but also led him to uncover the foundational elements of musical theater.

Today, Patrick can sight-read virtually any musical theater composition. His experience with traditional music education, combined with his innovative spirit, inspired him to co-found MuseFlow, a cutting-edge music edtech startup often referred to as "The Duolingo of Music Education."

MuseFlow revolutionizes music learning by emphasizing the development of bite-sized skills through sight-reading—enabling students to read and play music at first sight—rather than relying on repetitive practice. After students master a new skill through sight-reading, they can apply that skill to songs that get unlocked. This approach to skill-acquisition makes learning music more engaging, effective, and rewarding compared to traditional methods.

The platform is customizable to each student's preferred learning pace and skill level, allowing the user to adjust the tempo and complexity of the music, ensuring that they remain challenged but not overwhelmed. MuseFlow’s unique method involves students playing levels designed to teach specific skills, such as new notes, rhythms, or time signatures. The system generates novel sheet music, focusing initially on the new concept in isolation, and gradually integrating it with their existing knowledge throughout the level. Students continue practicing until they achieve a 95% accuracy rate over four consecutive phrases, at which point they have mastered the new skill.

Patrick has been featured on podcasts such as Mystery Team Inc.'s "The Biggest Thing In The Universe," where he shares his insights on the future of learning, edtech, and underappreciated Sondheim musicals. He is passionate about educating audiences on self-teaching sight- reading and guiding parents and teachers on how to leverage MuseFlow to help students achieve a flow state, enabling them to master a new instrument with greater accuracy and enjoyment.

AI OVERVIEW:

Sight-reading in music is the ability to play or sing a piece of music directly from written notation, without prior practice or memorization. It involves quickly translating musical symbols into sound, requiring both visual processing and coordination of the body.

"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.

As I mention in the introduction of my show, Gramps Jeffrey, I believe is the first grandfather I've interviewed on SHLTMM, so that's pretty great. I was so happy to hear how engaged he is with his grandchildren.

Gramps' mother's name was Faye  and she really left quite an impression on him and his brother.  Faye was the youngest of 3 children, with two older brothers. Growing up during the Depression and  WWII, known as The Greatest Generation, was a very challenging time, "and my mother lived up to every expectation", continues Gramps.  

While raising her two boys, she  insisted they turn off the tv and read-no if, ands or buts. "We loved our mother," says Gramps, referring to him and his brother. They grew up in a small town in Ohio, about 50 miles outside Columbus,  where they were free to play outside and knew when to come home in time for dinner. He had relatives nearby as well, including  lots of love and support from his grandmother and uncle.

Gramps brags, "mom always had a positive attitude.  Her glass was always half full  and she was always looking at the 'bright side of life."  That philosophy  and her passion of reading certainly influenced Gramps and his interest in writing.  It's clearly stayed with him even today because he continues to write and read to  his 6 grandchildren.

"Mom would remind us regularly that we were very fortunate and had a good life, but that we can't forget other people. This world is hard and she knew it," remarks Gramps.  Faye had learned many life lessons from her paternal grandmother who lost her husband suddenly when he was only 49. She was left  to raise her  children  on her own, including Fay's dad. She also raised her nephew who had also lost his parents. But her grandmother was always smiling regardless of her hardships.

Gramps Jeffrey is very concerned about the different parenting styles  today. Most concerns him most and feels is most important for every child is 'one on one attention' from the parent. Gramps feels so blessed to have had such a devoted mother, and hopes that parents still take the time to put the phone down, turn the computer off and just sit and read or spend that precious time with your children. 

Gramps' mom gave him such a sense of security. "We could always go home and feel secure, you felt love, you felt protected," remarks Gramps about his mom. One of his mom's favorite quotes was "when you love, you will teach others how to love."

Gramps Jeffrey is truly committed to sharing this message. He's got every little child on his mind in hopes that they get all the loving that they truly deserve.

While raising her two boys, she  insisted they turn off the tv and read-no if, ands or buts. "We loved our mother," says Gramps, referring to him and his brother. They grew up in a small town in Ohio, about 50 miles outside Columbus,  where they were free to play outside and knew when to come home in time for dinner. He had relatives nearby as well, including  lots of love and support from his grandmother and uncle.

Gramps brags, "mom always had a positive attitude.  Her glass was always half full  and she was always looking at the 'bright side of life."  That philosophy  and her passion of reading certainly influenced Gramps and his interest in writing.  It's clearly stayed with him even today because he continues to write and read to  his 6 grandchildren.

"Mom would remind us regularly that we were very fortunate and had a good life, but that we can't forget other people. This world is hard and she knew it," remarks Gramps.  Faye had learned many life lessons from her paternal grandmother who lost her husband suddenly when he was only 49. She was left  to raise her  children  on her own, including Fay's dad. She also raised her nephew who had also lost his parents. But her grandmother was always smiling regardless of her hardships.

Gramps Jeffrey is very concerned about the different parenting styles  today. Most concerns him most and feels is most important for every child is 'one on one attention' from the parent. Gramps feels so blessed to have had such a devoted mother, and hopes that parents still take the time to put the phone down, turn the computer off and just sit and read or spend that precious time with your children. 

Gramps' mom gave him such a sense of security. "We could always go home and feel secure, you felt love, you felt protected," remarks Gramps about his mom. One of his mom's favorite quotes was "when you love, you will teach others how to love."

Gramps Jeffrey is truly committed to sharing this message. He's got every little child on his mind in hopes that they get all the loving that they truly deserve.

She's wonderful and has accomplished and overcome quite a bit thus far in her life. And a lot of that has to do with her mother. It took Dani many, many years to figure out what her real connection was with her mother. Was it love? Was it control? Dani was convinced it was love. Even Dani's girlfriends were convinced that she and her mother had the most special relationship and were even a bit jealous of what these two woman had- what looked like a very special bond.

Dani was always there for her mother. Very protective of her, always there by her side should she need anything. If she hadn't heard from her mother within a certain amount of time, Dani would worry.  If she said the wrong thing, Dani would worry.

Here's a little bit of what Dani wrote to me about her relationship with her mother, prior to our recorded  conversation.

"I'm the way i am because of her. I'm everything she wasn't and still of cuz I find her in me, her fears, her narrative, her internalized voice that speaks to me with grim predictions whenever things go really great for me.
I wrote a whole book about me and my mom called "mutterseelenallein" which is a wonderful german word and means something like "lonelier than alone." Like when you find a kitten in the middle of the forest with no mum but as well as no one else around.

"Mutterseelenallein" was how my mom and I both felt, while she in fact was given away by her mother in 2nd world war and i had my mom always around like an emotional absent dissociated shadow that lived by my light.
My mom was scared and depressed and my sole purpose was to make her happy. She was very generous when it was about sweets and bedtime but i had a massive price to pay: My self, that i had to surrender to her.  She was so close that she suffocated me and at the same time she never was there."

"I didnt realize till puberty when i started to become my own person what my mom couldn't handle. As long as I was an extension of herself everything was good, but by the slightest sign of separation, she started to become ugly. Emotional blackmailing, blame shifting and the sad realization that no matter what, I could never make her happy...which i tried until the day she died. Missing out to build my own family as she was my sole responsibility. She became the bitter and hateful, jealous of every move I made, every success I celebrated...she talked my victories small, told me I'm too messy or to fat..no man would ever want me."

Such powerful words to describe a very complex relationship, especially for a young daughter who trusted her mother implicitly.

There's so much more to this story. And the great news is that Dani has accomplished so much in her life. She says she loves her mother regardless of how hurtful she was. She a psychotherapist who's loves helping others and is able to help her patients because she is living proof that you can always turn your life around for the better.

As narcissitic as Gabriel was, Dani has learner and voiced her opinion about the significance of raising our children to be able to leave home/the Mother Ship as a teen or in their young adult prime. "The bravest thing  to do is teach your kids to separate."

Dani uses her bold and dynamic design choices to lift her internal vibrations, to make her happy and feel alive and appreciate all of her talents regardless of how her mother tried to control her and keep her self esteem bleak. (Tinzeltowndesign)

Brava Dani and I can't wait to meet you in person either in Germany or  The Bohoho in South Africa.

Both of Rachelle's parents eventually remarried. Her father has two daughters from a subsequent marriage. And Rachelle's mom, has remarried twice. Rachelle's parents were very much in love and married right out of college. At around the  age of five years old, her parent's split up and Rachelle lived with her mother though there was joint custody between her parents.  Rachelle admits that they did a pretty  good job of not pushing and pulling her into their disagreements up until just prior to her wedding!

Pauline eventually went to graduate school and became a psychologist and Rachelle says "she'll work into her eighties, she loves it so much." "She had a lot of drive and intelligence that was sort of sitting somewhere and not used. Eventually she learned how to use it." says my guest. There were humble beginning after the divorce, but Pauline eventually found her calling and nothing can stop her now.

Getting support from her mom regarding her writing and being able to have honest open conversations was always helpful, yet Pauline didn't like it "when I dressed sexy. I could pierce my ears, dye my hair, no tattoos till 18. My mother also has a really loud laugh" recalls Rachelle. So loud that Rachelle will sometimes ask her mother to not laugh so loud if they're out in a restaurant.

Some of Rachelle's favorite Judy Blume books include, "Are You There God, It's Me Margaret," "Blubber," "Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing" and so many more. But it was Ms. Blume's natural writing style that enthralled not only Rachelle but teens and young adults around the world, even today. There was a period in the 1980's that Judy Blume was one of the most banned author in America. She wrote about somewhat sensitive topics that her audience was looking to learn more about, but not from their parents. Topics such as menstruation, puberty, parental divorce, sexuality, women's lib/feminism and so much more.

One of many things that Rachelle is grateful for is that her mother was very open about speaking with her about a woman's body and sexuality. 

Again, it was reflective for Rachelle to write this latest book "The Genius of Judy Blume-How Judy Blume Rewrote Childhood for All of Us." She clearly saw many similarities in both her mother and Ms. Blume's life. Though the transition of being a young divorcee with children was challenging, once these women hit their stride, they found themselves unstoppable.

I could pierce my ears, dye my hair, no tattoos till 18. My mother also has a really loud laugh" recalls Rachelle. So loud that Rachelle will sometimes ask her mother to not laugh so loud if they're out in a restaurant.

Some of Rachelle's favorite Judy Blume books include, "Are You There God, It's Me Margaret," "Blubber," "Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing" and so many more. But it was Ms. Blume's natural writing style that enthralled not only Rachelle but teens and young adults around the world, even today. There was a period in the 1980's that Judy Blume was one of the most banned author in America. She wrote about somewhat sensitive topics that her audience was looking to learn more about, but not from their parents. Topics such as menstruation, puberty, parental divorce, sexuality, women's lib/feminism and so much more.

One of many things that Rachelle is grateful for is that her mother was very open about speaking with her about a woman's body and sexuality. 

Again, it was reflective for Rachelle to write this latest book "The Genius of Judy Blume-How Judy Blume Rewrote Childhood for All of Us." She clearly saw many similarities in both her mother and Ms. Blume's life. Though the transition of being a young divorcee with children was challenging, once these women hit their stride, they found themselves unstoppable.

Hearing her tell stories of her mother, Pauline was such a vivid experience. Rachelle is a wonderful storyteller and her writing is fluid and colorful. Growing up in New Jersey, as did her mother and as did author, Judy Bloom was coincidental. But as Rachelle was relaying memories of her mother after the divorce and the attempts Pauline made to become engaged with her daughter, her own personal interests, society and a future career, it was clear that she and Judy Bloom had had very similar experiences. Adjusting to life after marriage was full of wonderful surprises and challenges. Lucky for us and for Rachelle that she inherited a number of hand me down clothes and Judy Blume books from family friends. That was the beginning of my guest's passion for reading and writing. Thanks Rachelle, Pauline and Judy Bloom for all this inspiration and insight. It was such a please to speak with author, Rachelle Bergstein for this episode of SHLTMM.

Brendan is an award winning graphic novel/picture book author and acquiring editor at Blackstone Publishing where he also runs the TV and Film Division even made notice of having his maternal grandmothers published books on his desk. 

Brendan shares that he was always supported and encouraged by his family with his passion for comic books which he started writing and drawing caricatures at a young age.

In time, Irene expressed "that the family was moving in a different direction and the divorce was almost inevitable." Irene continues, "I'm highly emotionally intelligent and I finally found my tribe. I found people who spoke my language." This all occurred once she went back to school for her Masters Degree in Counseling, and later on became a social worker. 

Brendan raves about his childhood as a latch key kid. He loved growing up in Connecticut. And now as a father, he appreciates even more what it takes for parents to raise their children. And now he's learned even more about what his mother was going through raising the four Deneen children.

Both Irene and Brendan claim to be emotionally intelligent-they are very good at listening to others, which Brendan feels that "not many people listen to one another these days." Brendan has always been there for his mom as a sounding board. Irene says " Brendan was my listening post." When she needed to talk, she call Brendan.They have a special bond for sure. They respect one another.

Irene Deneen Murray: Irene Deneen Murray grew up in the 50’s, an era when a woman could be a nurse, teacher or secretary. She chose teacher because it pleased her mother. In truth the first half of her life was devoted to taking care of or pleasing her mother. At age 50 having raised 4 kids in a Hollywood -worthy suburb, Irene became a divorcee and learned to love being more adventurous than she had previously ever imagined. By then she was working as a social worker having recently earned a Master’s Degree in Counseling. Irene loves the natural world and has been a devoted hiker and later a biker, paddler and pretty consistently a practitioner of yoga. She continues these pastimes presently sometimes to the chagrin of her children since they may picture her falling off a cliff, rolling over in her kayak or some other catastrophe. Her children and grandchildren are her greatest achievement. She is a good observer and has insight galore but is sometimes amazed at how each of her children has developed so uniquely.

 

Brendan Deneen is the author of the novelsThe Ninth Circle andThe Chrysalis, as well as the bestselling four-volume Night Night, Groot picture book series for Marvel/Disney. He’s also the author of the middle-grade graphic novelGreen Arrow: Stranded for DC Comics; the novels Morbius: Blood Ties and Guardians of the Galaxy: Annihilation:Conquest from Marvel/Titan, and Alien: Uncivil War from 20th Century Studios/Titan. His other graphic novel work includes multiple volumes of Flash Gordon, an original Island of Misfit Toys book, and the original graphic novel Scatterbrain.

Her story of looking for love after a tough childhood lead her to getting married, raising a family of four children, working as a teacher but not really feeling loved. She decided to go to graduate school and eventually found, as she says, "her tribe." People that she truly connected with and she felt understood. Her son Brendan, share stories of a wonderful childhood growing up in Connecticut. Admiring his two older brothers; the eldest loved comics and his next oldest brother was a super athlete.

That was really hard for Dravon because she knew how hard her mother had worked and how much she gave up in order to give her children a solid family foundation and a good education. So Dravon was afraid to disappoint her mom because of all the sacrifices her mom had made for the family.

 

Now, Davon is a doctor, an author and a Life Coach.  She has so much to thank her mother for, including how her mom instilled in her the power of positive thinking, hard work the power of forgiveness.

In Dravon’s new book, “Forgiveness: The Pathway to Happiness,” she shares her expertise and personal experience with forgiveness. She teaches that "it is not denial, amnesia, or even reconciliation, but a pathway to peace and a lifetime practice."  A few inspirational influencers include Oprah Winfrey, Miya Angelou and Dr. Norman Vincent Peale.

As a young child, my guest’s journey began in poverty on the South Side of Chicago. Though she had always dreamt of a career on the stage, Dravon went on to earn a doctorate in pharmacy from Creighton University and has worked as a pharmacist for over 30 years. A leader in the healthcare industry , she is the recipient of the Secretary McDonough Coin of Recognition for her leadership efforts to combat the COVID pandemic.

Along with her medical career and theatrical aspirations, Dr. Dravon has always had a keen interest in personal development. After reading Norman Vincent Peale’s The Power of Positive Thinking in college, she went on to make a lifelong study of the power we all have to create the life we want.

Ruby wasn't all hard work and business. Because of her Southside of Chicago roots, she was the queen of "Chicago Steppin.' 

Chicago Steppin', which I was not familiar with until Dravon shared this story of her mom's  love of dancing, is a unique and improvisational partner dance, originated in Chicago's Southside and is rooted in soul, jazz, and R&B music, with influences from styles like the Chicago Bop, Lindy Hop, and Western Swing.

Dr. Jame's says her mother always instilled in her children to "be dogmatic and be committed to something." Ruby was unwavering, reflects James. "Her commitment to success was the endgame!"

Along with her medical career and theatrical aspirations, Dr. Dravon has always had a keen interest in personal development. After reading Norman Vincent Peale’s The Power of Positive Thinking in college, she went on to make a lifelong study of the power we all have to create the life we want.

Ruby wasn't all hard work and business. Because of her Southside of Chicago roots, she was the queen of "Chicago Steppin.' 

Chicago Steppin', which I was not familiar with until Dravon shared this story of her mom's  love of dancing, is a unique and improvisational partner dance, originated in Chicago's Southside and is rooted in soul, jazz, and R&B music, with influences from styles like the Chicago Bop, Lindy Hop, and Western Swing.

Dr. Jame's says her mother always instilled in her children to "be dogmatic and be committed to something." Ruby was unwavering, reflects James. "Her commitment to success was the endgame!"

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

This week on SHLTMM. you'll have the opportunity to hear stories of Ruby, my guest's mother. Ruby was a woman of principle. "She persevered against all odds. She was a woman who carried a lot on her shoulders and was full of pride," shares Dr. James. My guest was insistent that "when her mom's heart was breaking on the outside, you could never tell. She was the quintessential lady at all times." Ruby and her family were originally from the Southside of Chicago and she was the eldest of eight children. And Ruby was determined to give her three children a better life, regardless of how hard it would be for her as a single mother. So, she left the support of her family and moved with her children to Springfield, MA. Her religion, spirituality and faith helped her through all of her struggles as she was on her own but insisted that her children get a good education, go to college and in Dr. Jame's case become a doctor.

"Greetings From Paradise" began as a screen play and it turned into a gift from June to Coral Gables. It is a one act, 80 minute play written by June Thomson Morris, making it's debut at Miracle Theater on Miracle Mile.     

The roaring 20's happened big time in Coral Gables and the Miami area. At that time, the Prohibition was not taken seriously at all. June says "the booze was pouring in with miles of unprotected coastlines between Bermuda and Cuba." 

1925 the great Florida Land Boom -no more income tax nor inheritance tax so everyone from up north, who had money, flocked to the Miami area.

In September of 1926, a hurricane leveled Miami and left a path  of destruction

June's Grandmother, Lucy, was there and she experienced the loss of all that had been created and developed because of this one horrific storm. 

Dorothy as a proud mother, explains that by writing this play, June has done something that no one else has ever done. It's the first time that anyone's written a historically accurate telling of the story of Miami.

Coral Gables is also dedicating a park in Dorothy's honor. It's going to be the first theme park in Coral Gables and named "Dorothy." Dorothy was raised in Peekskill, New York  where in the 1800's, L. Frank Baum, the author of the Wizard of Oz, attended  the Peekskill Military Academy for two years. When L. Frank Baum was looking for his new school, a gentleman told him to "follow the yellow brink road" and you'll find the academy.

Looking Back at S3E9 Julie Jargon is the first 'Family & Technology' Columnist for the Wall Street Journal. Congratulations again Julie. She is also a Gen X mom.  Generation X is  the generation after the 'baby boomers'-mid 1960's to early 1980's, and her findings may not be too surprising.

As a parent, I've often told my boys to get off their phones and/or computer for many reasons.  The worst being social media and the damning effect it can have on ones self confidence.  In times of need, one often thinks that reaching out to friends is the smartest and safest solution, but it doesn't always workout that way.  The same holds true for adults. One has to be smart and think outside the box when trying to find new friends or different ways to gather socially.

Moms are human and they have needs too, especially during these trying times of lockdown. Kids are struggling with virtual schooling, parents are either out of work or all working from home. Add a pandemic dog to the mix, so now you essentially have an additional new baby to take care of and train on top of everything else. All of this can lead to chaos in the home.

So a number of mom's sought solace on social media and admit to  becoming more lonely and depress. It didn't fulfill their needs the way they had hoped.  That's not to say that all social media is bad, you just have to find the right fit your you.  Seeing others out and about, carrying on and having fun during these past two years while you're at home doing  'the right and smart thing' can be upsetting. Jargon is spot on when saying "we should be prioritizing friendships. She continues, "research shows how important friendships are to physical and mental health."

Julie has a number of wonderful suggestions on how to meet up with friends and make new ones during these trying times.  I'm sure some of her suggestions will help you and give you a different perspective  about how to truly use this powerful tool as social media to your benefit. And she suggests "don't be afraid to show your vulnerability. Ask for what you want and sometimes you must take the initiative."

Looking Back at S3E7 My guest, Dr. Joseph Garcia, was speaking to me from  the Pacific Northwest. As he said, "I'm 15 miles south of Canada and 6 miles in from the water (Pacific Ocean)."

Emma was born and raised in Alabama. She moved up North to Milwaukee and started her family in her 40's.  Joseph is so proud of all his mom's accomplishments and is overwhelmed at times by the number of lives she touched.  One of the things that impressed Joseph the most, is that "I never saw my mother get angry, ever in my life."  She was sure to never raise her voice at home, because the look of disappointment  was way more effective than any shouting  could possibly be.

"Son, you're going to have to do  twice as much, to get half as far," was one of Emma's most memorable expressions. She was trying to prepare her mixed race adopted son for the real world.   In the 1950's, it could be challenging for people of color to find a significant job to help support the family.    

Apparently Joseph didn't really have any interest in school as a teen. "It wasn't as important as my social life", say's Joseph.   "My mother would often say "son I know you can do better, you have to decide to do that.  Then she'd walk away."  My guest continues, "children of color were not directed toward the college prep courses back then. But I took advantage of shop class, etc. I learned how to build a house."

It wasn't until  seeing the rest of the world that Joseph realized how special his mother was and how fortunate he was growing up.

Because Dr. Garcia was adopted and because he was mixed race, he was often bullied and teased by his classmates.   HIs mom wanted to help Joseph be resilient to this intimidation so she would say to her son,  "yeah you're more than one race. We picked a child who had the best qualities of all the races put together into one child."  And Joseph's direct response to these pests was " "yeah my mom chose me. Your parents are stuck with you!"

To this day, my guest is still shocked by the hundreds of friends and former students came to his mother's funeral when she passed at 99 years old. "They flew in from all over the country to pay their respect. She influenced so many people."

More of Emma's expressions:

"I'll rest when I die"

"I'm too old to be polite. I'm going to tell you the truth"

"Moss doesn't grow on me and I don't want it to grow on you"

"You always have to do something before you can do something else. AND there's always somethin"

"Son, don't pick something up before you have a place to put it down-that's not just stuff, that's people, that's things in your life,  that's everything"

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Looking Back at S3E6  As a young child, Sarah, native to Western Australia, didn't understand the voices and visions inside her head. She didn't understand how she knew things that a 4 year couldn't possibly know. It wasn't until she was older that she came to understand  that she had psychic/intuitive abilities.

"As a child, I was emotionally and verbally abused by my mother and brother," continues Strong. My mom was  Bipolar/Narcissistic  and that made the situation even complicated. 

Sarah's father didn't really play a role in her life. Now, Sarah says "he has an anti-role." "He's never been a big presence in my life.  I was a wild child as a kid and growing up. If he'd been in my life when I was young, I would have rejected him anyway."

"I have gifts including being a medium, empath, telepath & psychic & I channel the star beings, beings from other dimensions and many other beings of the light including the Ascended Masters, angels, fairies, loved ones on the other side, Jesus, Mother Mary and many more. During a session the channel is opened and guided by your spirit guides," affirms Strong.

Ms. Strong gladly professes, "my aim in life is to bring as much joy to everyone in this blessed world as I can," that comes from someone who's had a brutal childhood, made some bad choices and picked herself up again.

Looking Back at S3E5  To say that Claire Sinclair is  generous with her time, is an understatement.  She's been a teacher for decades.   And currently she's  teaching kindergarten in the same classroom at the same elementary school she attended.    

What's interesting about how our conversation began is that both Claire and her mother  attended Columbia High School in Maplewood, NJ and both women married their high school sweethearts, just decades apart.

Claire shares stories of the similarities of she and her mom and how much it means to her that so many people from her community still hold her mother close to their heart. Claire's mother, 'Ellie,'  was known as "The Duck Lady" in Maplewood/South Orange NJ. What she started many years ago as a simple race in a brook with plastic ducks has grown to raising tens of thousands of dollars annually for different organizations that help and support kids, ie Kiwanis, Scouts, YMCA, etc. 

Ellie's mom, Claire's maternal grandmother,  passed away when Ellie was in her 20's. When Ellie's father remarried, there was no real love between she and her step mother so she moved in with one of her favorite aunts, Aunt Fay, her birth mother's sister, who ran a preschool out of her home. Ellie had interests in nursing and/or becoming a teacher but her career was cut short when it was time to start a family. 

Claire says "she likes to dabble in a little bit of everything, just like her mom."  Claire is involved in community awareness when it comes to food insecure families. She volunteers regularly at local food pantries distributing food as well as keeping her young students involved by organizing can drives at the elementary school. As a board member for MEND, Meeting Essential Needs with Dignity, located throughout Essex County, NJ, Claire regularly sees families in need of help and like her mom, it's hard for her to say no to helping others.

Claire is the administrator of a Facebook Group, 'Habitual Gratitude 365' where she shares daily prompts of things that her multitude of followers are grateful for. Again, like her mom, and as a mother, she loves to help others in need.

Claire's mother passed away in 2013 but she's left an imprint on the community.  Claire was lucky enough to have one last phone call from her mom and she's so happy that she picked up that call.

Claire also has a  park bench in Maplewood Memorial Park, which was dedicated to her mother, by the community, nestled nicely right beside the brook where Ellie started her very first Memorial Day 'Duck Race.' That's where Claire goes on a regular basis to feel her mother's support, love and guidance.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

]]> Tue, 18 Feb 2025 03:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (claire sinclaire, jackie tantillo, should have listened to my mother) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/she-had-a-heart-of-gold-with-guest-teacher-and-author-claire-sinclair-looking-back-at-s3e5-K4BD5RRy  To say that Claire Sinclair is  generous with her time, is an understatement.  She's been a teacher for decades.   And currently she's  teaching kindergarten in the same classroom at the same elementary school she attended.    

What's interesting about how our conversation began is that both Claire and her mother  attended Columbia High School in Maplewood, NJ and both women married their high school sweethearts, just decades apart.

Claire shares stories of the similarities of she and her mom and how much it means to her that so many people from her community still hold her mother close to their heart. Claire's mother, 'Ellie,'  was known as "The Duck Lady" in Maplewood/South Orange NJ. What she started many years ago as a simple race in a brook with plastic ducks has grown to raising tens of thousands of dollars annually for different organizations that help and support kids, ie Kiwanis, Scouts, YMCA, etc. 

Ellie's mom, Claire's maternal grandmother,  passed away when Ellie was in her 20's. When Ellie's father remarried, there was no real love between she and her step mother so she moved in with one of her favorite aunts, Aunt Fay, her birth mother's sister, who ran a preschool out of her home. Ellie had interests in nursing and/or becoming a teacher but her career was cut short when it was time to start a family. 

Claire says "she likes to dabble in a little bit of everything, just like her mom."  Claire is involved in community awareness when it comes to food insecure families. She volunteers regularly at local food pantries distributing food as well as keeping her young students involved by organizing can drives at the elementary school. As a board member for MEND, Meeting Essential Needs with Dignity, located throughout Essex County, NJ, Claire regularly sees families in need of help and like her mom, it's hard for her to say no to helping others.

Claire is the administrator of a Facebook Group, 'Habitual Gratitude 365' where she shares daily prompts of things that her multitude of followers are grateful for. Again, like her mom, and as a mother, she loves to help others in need.

Claire's mother passed away in 2013 but she's left an imprint on the community.  Claire was lucky enough to have one last phone call from her mom and she's so happy that she picked up that call.

Claire also has a  park bench in Maplewood Memorial Park, which was dedicated to her mother, by the community, nestled nicely right beside the brook where Ellie started her very first Memorial Day 'Duck Race.' That's where Claire goes on a regular basis to feel her mother's support, love and guidance.

"I walked into therapy for the first time when I was seven years old because someone had molested me," reflects Michael. Michael's been working at changing his life trajectory. It's taken years of being committed to changing his past experiences to better his future.  Michael is now offering  help to others. (All information is below regarding his website, free weekly meet-ups, and his social media links, etc.)

This is probably the best advice anyone could give someone with addiction and abuse issues. Michael is sincere when he says "you've got to just make a decision whether or not you're going to walk this path.  If you're tired of your life being a disaster, you're tired of all the things you're going through you're tired of feeling like a victim, and again I'm not taking anyone's victimhood away, I get it, but at some point you got to decide whether or not you're going to take control of your life. And that's the hardest thing that you're going to have to do in this life- is choose yourself."

"Hurt people hurt people" Michael repeats. His mother, Donna, was not well and had suffered a life full of abuse, drugs and alcohol, so she was unable to "change the arc of her own life." She tried over and over again to get help. She was in and out of facilities. Said she was going to AA meeting just for Michael's sake and she just couldn't beat it.  According to Michael, "she chose drugs and alcohol over her children and she ultimately destroyed everything that she touched."

Michael never had his biological father in his life. But what he did have were abusive step fathers which of course, did not help the situation.

This story that Michael shares is very personal. He mentioned that he hasn't really had many of these kinds of open conversation, specifically about his mother, so I appreciate Michael trusting me with his story.

It's not an easy journey. "Michael  often has to explain  that "I don't think people know how hard this work is, to change the arc of your life." There are lots of scars, but there is hope. And it is possible to design your own destiny.

Allison Kalsched along with Dr. Sharon Mallone, OBGYN  and best Selling Author, were guests on S6E4 of SHLTMM. I wanted to mention Stacey Futterman Tauriello and April McKenzie who are also Co-Founders of NYMMNJ. Many people were involved, working diligently to have a long list of practitioners and  professionals speak on the topic of women's health, wellbeing and happiness.

This is the story of mother and daughter that absolutley love one another and have a very special connection. They love to talk about anything and everything. It's heartwarming to hear these stories of their relationship and how laughter is such an integral part of both of their lives. You'll hear liz share stories about how great her mom is at landing a story and that she's got great comedic timing. Comedy and laughter can be therapeutic and I think it's been healing for both women.

Liz and Toby have their own Love Language. They understand one another perfectly where as other people may not really understand  exactly what they're talking about. The two women also love speaking to one another before going to bed. As a child, her mom would give Liz the option of reading a book or talking before bed and Liz would automatically choose option two of talking together.

"My mom was fun but not like a cool mom. Both of my parents were over protective. But my mom loves to talk and boy does she know how to land a  story," according to Glazer."If she wants to be a comedian," I support her.

As a teen, Liz would have some girlfriends over for a sleepover and naturally in the middle of the night mom would come down to keep an eye on the girls so they got some sleep. Toby lays down on the floor with the girls and the only two awake are Liz and her mom. The two women wind up talking till late in the morning?

"Both mom and dad grew up with  Holocaust survivors as parents" shares Liz. Her mother's upbringing -was tough. On one hand her parents experienced an atrocity in the Concentration camps. They were traumatized and now living in a foreign country. Meanwhile, Toby was trying to fit in as an American on Long Island.  A friend asked why is Theresa name Theresa? For fear of Anti Semitic backlash?Toby's birth certificate  originally had "Theresa" listed as her first name as not to be recognized as being Jewish.  Eventually they legally changed her name legally.

Retail returns are a right of passage. Liz has been returning purchases for her mother for decades.

Liz share "this is the story of a woman who  endured sadness and trauma and found hope and laughter and a sense of calm through her own resilience, helped by friends and her family and  ultimately has become the strong woman that her family members saw that she was before she saw it herself."

As a teen, Liz would have some girlfriends over for a sleepover and naturally in the middle of the night mom would come down to keep an eye on the girls so they got some sleep. Toby lays down on the floor with the girls and the only two awake are Liz and her mom. The two women wind up talking till late in the morning?

"Both mom and dad grew up with  Holocaust survivors as parents" shares Liz. Her mother's upbringing -was tough. On one hand her parents experienced an atrocity in the Concentration camps. They were traumatized and now living in a foreign country. Meanwhile, Toby was trying to fit in as an American on Long Island.  A friend asked why is Theresa name Theresa? For fear of Anti Semitic backlash?Toby's birth certificate  originally had "Theresa" listed as her first name as not to be recognized as being Jewish.  Eventually they legally changed her name legally.

Retail returns are a right of passage. Liz has been returning purchases for her mother for decades.

Liz share "this is the story of a woman who  endured sadness and trauma and found hope and laughter and a sense of calm through her own resilience, helped by friends and her family and  ultimately has become the strong woman that her family members saw that she was before she saw it herself."

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

My guest, lawyer, writer and Comedian, Liz Glazer, is the descendant of four grandparents who were survivors of the Holocaust. Toby, my guest's mother was living in a displaced person's camp before arriving in the United States. Liz and her mother are very, very close. And both women share the same sense of humor which makes their bond even that much more special. Toby was a baby when she and her family emigrated from Europe after WWII. Liz's four grandparents lost all of their siblings in the camps during the war and were the only survivors.

It's a book about taking care of oneself and getting support from family, friends and doctors that take the time to recognize you, your symptoms and guide you  in the correct direction until you get the answers that you need.

Bertha, Dr. Malone's mother, was born in 1914 in rural Alabama.  Sadly Bertha died when Dr. Malone, her youngest daughter, was twelve.  Out of necessity, Bertha and close relatives had to self diagnose any and all illnesses. There wasn't really any medical services nearby. It was all based on collective knowledge from family members and maybe a midwife who could help out.  It was her family, a few things in a medicine cabinet, home remedies, etc that worked when one of her children was sick. "There was so much of an "ancestral collective of knowledge" that Bertha had access to, that we don't have today," reflects Malone.

My guest's mother, Bertha lost her mother when she was 14 and Bertha and her sixteen year old sister had three younger siblings to  raise. It wasn't an easy childhood, but it didn't stop Bertha for instilling such a wealth knowledge in her own children. I highly recommend you read "Grown Woman Talk," to get the full impact of her mother's life and Dr. Malone's philosophies regarding health.

Dr. Malone explains, "medicine is not the answer for everything,  but there is also a place and time for it.  Don't run to the doctor every time there's  a sniffle." "She'd like to see the pendulum come back to the middle," regarding the health field.

Bertha was a maid in officers quarters of the near by Military base because she had to work. Plus Bertha took care of the work around the house including the cooking, cleaning, etc.

Bertha was confident and calm but there are so many stories that Dr. Malone doesn't know about.  In the early 20th century Bertha was very practical and conscientious especially when it came to diet, health and "necessities. 

Dr. Malone lovingly shares stories of her mother, her work ethic and the moral grounding and how  important it was.  "I still hear her voice in my head.  When I do things I either think of them as either this will make  my mother  proud or my mother would not be  pleased with this particularly behavior."

Dr. Malone only had twelve formative years with her mother, but she says "I learned enough about character and what was and wasn't important in life in that short time.  Don't ever doubt the the value and importance of mothers and the effect they have on their children. In those few years, I had enough to be really influenced by her about what kind of woman i wanted to be and what kind of mother I wanted to be."  

Allison Kalsched a women's fitness specialist is one of the Co-Founders of NYMMNJ. She was so excited to share the "significance of the community of women" that came together to not only organize this first ever symposium but the respected presenters and the  250 women  that came from near and far to this event.

Allison has been working exclusively with women  for about ten years on their fitness and health journey. "The story hasn't changed much, remarks Kalsched, since Dr. Malone's mother was born in the early part of the twentieth century, and everything she (Bertha) learned about women's health was through a symposium of women-the benefits of  being surrounded by women and how we can help one another."  NYMMNJ was put together by a group of women out of the necessity of getting the help they need for their midlife health and wellbeing.  Most of these women had come to Allison for training and they've been through all life changes together.

Allison concurs that women some times make things too complicated and tend to put our well being on the back burner. As women age we need to work on our bodies differently than when we were younger. Taking the time  to see a doctor is important, but "we have to think about the woman's body as much more complicated and much more holistic."  Fifty percent of the women who walk in Allison's door complain of frozen shoulder or plantar fasciitis, they are the most common complaints.  Allison believes that mainly these issues of inflammation in  joints are reactions to changes in our hormones " it's all connected."

 

NOT YOUR MOTHER'S MENOPAUSE NJ:

Not Your Mother’s Menopause NJ is the creation of three Maplewood/South Orange based women who recognized a need for an event such as this. 

April L McKenzie started the popular Facebook group Perimenopause — It’s for Real (now renamed Not Your Mother’s Menopause NJ) when she became increasingly frustrated at her own personal experience with finding help for her perimenopausal symptoms. Since the group’s founding in 2021, almost 800 women have shared their knowledge, resources and experiences. She has just been voted in as a board member of Let's Talk Menopause, a national nonprofit, where she will grow her involvement in women's health advocacy and menopause awareness.

Stacey Futterman Tauriello is the founder of 5 Point Physical Therapy and a pelvic health specialist. After 28 years practicing pelvic health, Stacey (and her patients) were going through hormonal changes that affected their lifestyle in many ways. 

Allison Kalschedis a women’s fitness specialist who has worked in the Maplewood area for over 10 years. As she and her clients have aged together, she became increasingly interested in how the menopause transition affects every system in a woman’s body. She is currently studying to become a certified menopause coach.

The three of us have come together to help our community forge a path through the information overload about the menopause transition. This event took place for the very first time on January 12, 2025!  More information coming regarding a video of the day long event with all the presenters including Dr. Sharon Malone.

She's also published "Decoding Your Emotional Blueprint," and you can get more information about placing an order on her website. The information is below.

Judy immediately told me that she's not one that doesn't love her mother. She and her mother are very close and she can't say enough great things about her experience as a child. Shirley  created a wonderful  environment to experience as a child. "Her parents were strict but loving. Judy says she knew what her boundaries were in terms of not just outward but inward.  I never felt like it was so strict, I couldn't breathe. I knew what discipline looked like." 

Shirley used to say "if you're going to do something, do it properly or don't bother." And Judy interprets that by saying, "there's a whole bunch of magic in doing something really, really well.  Invest in yourself and it makes soul magic. Investing in yourself through that process, it makes soul magic."

Judy goes on to describe how when her mum was working in the garden, she put her two daughter's in a wheelbarrow when they were little girls. Shirley lined the wheelbarrow with a blanket and filled it with snacks, drinks, books and things to play with and it is to this day one of Judy's fondest memories. Again, Shirley always created magic.

Judy loves everything Disney, again because it's magical. And Judy suggests you "watch Encanto and Frozen because you are the magic, you are the imagineer, you are the one who can make it happen. You are the creator of what's possible."

Hope you enjoy the episode. There's so many more wonderful stories about Judy, her mother and Judy's step daughter and their loving relationship. Judy is so grateful for all that her mother taught her and how she was raised.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

]]> Tue, 21 Jan 2025 03:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (Judy Wilkins Smith, should have listened to my mother podcast, jackie tantillo) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/her-magic-and-kindness-touched-not-only-her-family-but-also-those-in-need-with-guest-family-patterns-expert-systemic-coach-and-author-judy-wilkins-smith-dC6kdCAw In 2024, Judy released her book, "The Hidden Power in Your DNA." She's also published "Decoding Your Emotional Blueprint," and you can get more information about placing an order on her website. The information is below.

Judy immediately told me that she's not one that doesn't love her mother. She and her mother are very close and she can't say enough great things about her experience as a child. Shirley  created a wonderful  environment to experience as a child. "Her parents were strict but loving. Judy says she knew what her boundaries were in terms of not just outward but inward.  I never felt like it was so strict, I couldn't breathe. I knew what discipline looked like." 

Shirley used to say "if you're going to do something, do it properly or don't bother." And Judy interprets that by saying, "there's a whole bunch of magic in doing something really, really well.  Invest in yourself and it makes soul magic. Investing in yourself through that process, it makes soul magic."

Judy goes on to describe how when her mum was working in the garden, she put her two daughter's in a wheelbarrow when they were little girls. Shirley lined the wheelbarrow with a blanket and filled it with snacks, drinks, books and things to play with and it is to this day one of Judy's fondest memories. Again, Shirley always created magic.

Judy loves everything Disney, again because it's magical. And Judy suggests you "watch Encanto and Frozen because you are the magic, you are the imagineer, you are the one who can make it happen. You are the creator of what's possible."

As we were saying goodbye to one another, Judy professed, "mothers are amazing. "And  every single gift your mother ever gave you was meant for you, because it grows you the way that you can be and only you can be, don't forget it. Even when the gift doesn't look great."

Hope you enjoy the episode. There's so many more wonderful stories about Judy, her mother and Judy's step daughter and their loving relationship. Judy is so grateful for all that her mother taught her and how she was raised.

All  my mother wanted was the best for her kids.  I think of how hard my mom worked to just give us a normal life, in spite of the challenges." So in honor of Milly, they named their soups after her.

The broths came to fruition because Lori was a long time teacher and for years would bring a bouillon to work with her and add hot water for a nutritional snack.  That's when Llance said, I'm going to try and make you something more nutritious and with less salt.

Roberto calls himself an "IT Craftsman." He likes to know how each thing works down to the tiniest detail. He's a father, husband and wonderful co-worker.  HIs clients have said, "Roberto's exceptional knowledge is only surpassed by his kindness and willingness to support others." 

My guest's passion lies in technology, Web 3, P2P,  Blockchain and so much more.    Roberto was so excited to join us and share stories of his mother Camilla who's mother was a Baroness and the title was eventually passed down to Camilla when her mother passed away. Roberto's parents were never physical when it came disciplining him. They were able to have conversations to clear any issues up. Often, Roberto's parents did his usual chores for him because it was just easier for them.  Unfortunately, that "hands off attitude," had a bit of a down side to Roberto's experience. Had Roberto  been accused of things, things he didn't do, his parents took other adult's word for truth and they never allowed Roberto to defend himself of any of these false accusations. He uses this experience as a big lesson especially in raising his own children. He's adamant about having these open and honest conversations with his children.  False accusations have a lasting effect on all of us, especially when you're a young child. He's still waiting to get an apology from the Boy Scout leader.

One big surprise for my guest was that he never had any idea that his grandmother was a baroness. He had no idea that nobility was in his genes. It was lucky for Camilla's family, because there was wealth in the family and that allowed them access to food during WWII. Roberto says that it shaped his mother's personality. "She would never throw away one gram of leftover food and use it the next day."  Camilla wouldn't let anyone throw anything away, no waste, preserve everything. They enjoyed spending time enjoying simple things in life, like being out in nature and long bicycle rides in the mountains.

Camilla grew up in the mainland of Venice, Italy. 

Both parents were into mathematics. Camilla continued her studies but didn't finish a degree. Shortly afterward she became a housewife and a full time mother. Many years later after her husband passed, Camilla became a tour guide and a teacher of English but Roberto says her English wasn't really that good so he was a little bit embarrassed.

Roberto hasn't lived in Italy most of his life. He left at 18 years old and would return for holidays.  Since his mom died almost two two years ago, Roberto has stopped going to Italy for Christmas.

Roberto says he owes a lot to his siblings  for taking care of their mom for so many years. According to Roberto, his mother would often start telling a very lengthy story so it would  take yet two more hours in order to leave her apartment. 

Roberto and his mother both have/had a fantastic sense of humor and always find ways to be happy in life.  She never really understood how Roberto could take care of himself and his businesses beginning at such a young age.

Camilla had a remarkable intuitive ability to warn her son  not to get involved with certain businesses or with a particular person. She was often right. She even suggested that he marry a particular girlfriend years ago.  He didn't listen to his mother's advice and he definitely has regrets.

If Roberto didn't work in computers and technology, he says he'd love to be a comedian.  Humor, laughter and happiness was a common theme for he and his mom. "It's the biggest medicine to smile and laugh" Roberto reflects. "Whatever I do, I have to do it with a smile and with a joke in the middle."

 

 

"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.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

]]> Tue, 7 Jan 2025 03:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (Roberto Capodieci, should have listened to my mother podcast, jackie tantillo) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/humor-and-laughter-were-gifts-from-his-mother-baroness-camilla-with-guest-blockchain-and-p2p-consultant-roberto-capodieci-VEIawJ5k He wasn't your average ordinary young child because of his knack for computer skills, coding expertise and love for  video games, etc.

Roberto calls himself an "IT Craftsman." He likes to know how each thing works down to the tiniest detail. He's a father, husband and wonderful co-worker.  HIs clients have said, "Roberto's exceptional knowledge is only surpassed by his kindness and willingness to support others." 

My guest's passion lies in technology, Web 3, P2P,  Blockchain and so much more.    Roberto was so excited to join us and share stories of his mother Camilla who's mother was a Baroness and the title was eventually passed down to Camilla when her mother passed away. Roberto's parents were never physical when it came disciplining him. They were able to have conversations to clear any issues up. Often, Roberto's parents did his usual chores for him because it was just easier for them.  Unfortunately, that "hands off attitude," had a bit of a down side to Roberto's experience. Had Roberto  been accused of things, things he didn't do, his parents took other adult's word for truth and they never allowed Roberto to defend himself of any of these false accusations. He uses this experience as a big lesson especially in raising his own children. He's adamant about having these open and honest conversations with his children.  False accusations have a lasting effect on all of us, especially when you're a young child. He's still waiting to get an apology from the Boy Scout leader.

One big surprise for my guest was that he never had any idea that his grandmother was a baroness. He had no idea that nobility was in his genes. It was lucky for Camilla's family, because there was wealth in the family and that allowed them access to food during WWII. Roberto says that it shaped his mother's personality. "She would never throw away one gram of leftover food and use it the next day."  Camilla wouldn't let anyone throw anything away, no waste, preserve everything. They enjoyed spending time enjoying simple things in life, like being out in nature and long bicycle rides in the mountains.

Camilla grew up in the mainland of Venice, Italy. 

Both parents were into mathematics. Camilla continued her studies but didn't finish a degree. Shortly afterward she became a housewife and a full time mother. Many years later after her husband passed, Camilla became a tour guide and a teacher of English but Roberto says her English wasn't really that good so he was a little bit embarrassed.

His mother, Camilla, was proud of her young son who started coding and involved with IT work starting at age six. She raised Roberto differently from her older children. Roberto's older siblings are 15-18 years older than him. Camilla was forty-two when Roberto was born. Both of his parents gave him freedom and the ability to do more of what he wanted and yet his parents taught him what was right and what was wrong. Roberto explains that he didn't "put himself in trouble or hang out with the wrong people," and that his parents "gave me the basics to understand what was wrong." According to my guest, he feels that he missed out on many life lessons that both his mother and father neglected to teach him.

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?

" When mom was growing up, the sense of having missed out or being robbed and the victimization thing came through her whole life.

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 soul’s 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 don’t all use these gifts because somewhere along the journey we were taught to mistrust ourselves or fear our gifts. That’s 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.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Looking Back at S3E4 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.

As a petite woman, she was larger than life when it came to inspiring little minds and achieving the unachievable.

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.

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."

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Looking Back to S3E3 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.

https://www.amazon.com/Natural-Reflectors-Burnout-Engagement-Reflection-ebook/dp/B09DFNLLDW

The World Health Organization names stress as the health epidemic of the 21st Century. Slowing down not only reduces stress, but produces outcomes with a greater impact.

Natural Reflectors explores the idea of instilling, within our actions, a mindset of intentional reflection taken from the power of nature’s cycles. You will learn how a healthy process of managing one’s life has both elements of reflection and action. Find within these pages stories such as:

  • Bill Burnett from Stanford’s Design Your Life Lab explaining how we can only make good decisions when listening to both our mind and body
  • Stacy Levy, an environmental artist revealing the stories in nature that surround each of us, allowing us to see them, appreciate them, consider them, and maybe even learn from them
  • Carl Honore describing how our behavior is heavily influenced by our definition of time

If you have ever thought that there must be a better way to find meaning and purpose in your everyday life, read 

Natural Reflectors

. If you are tired of living on autopilot, or if you are seeking a greater connection with the world around you, this book offers hope.

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.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

]]> Tue, 22 Oct 2024 02:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (gerry strain, should have listened to my mother podcast, jackie tantillo, Hamilton Academical Football Club Scotland) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/while-mum-worked-nana-was-there-to-show-us-love-with-guest-director-of-football-at-hamilton-academical-gerry-strain-kqKBMr3C 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.

When Gerry says " when I look at it through adults eyes," he clearly understands what a challenge it was for his mother, Catherine, to put food on the table and keep a roof over their head. "It was an interesting childhood. We understood poverty," reflects Strain. Catherine worked many jobs including cleaning homes, cooking and as a home health aid in order to make sure her boys had food, clean uniforms for school and a place to call home. When Catherine was working late hours, the boys loved spending time with Nana, their grandmother. She was able to show them true love and they felt very comfortable talking freely to her. Gerry feels so blessed to have had both women in his life.

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 Nolte

If 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.

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.

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.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

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.

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.

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.

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

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.

"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.

Looking Back at S3E2 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.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Looking Back at S3E2 ken gagne, should have listened to my mother, jackie tantillo 00:28:03 "You're Gonna Miss Me Someday," is a touching and honest memoir from author and video producer, Ken Gagne. After working for the NBA as a senior producer for 29 years, Ken decided it was time to write about his family. Ken discovered that "every family's different but every family is kind of the same. We never talked about the past. We lived in the present, in the moment." But it was their past that needed to be spoken about the most.

Looking Back at S3E1 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.

Roya says of her mom, "she wasn't one to take big risks, yet she's one to stand out in a crowd." So perhaps initially is was a big surprise to be pulled out of school, but after a short while there was no going back. I was so excited to interview Roya Dedeaux.

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.

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.

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.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Looking Back at S2E45 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.

He made great money, had a car and beautiful girlfriend, but he realized he still wasn't happy on the inside. He was caught up and looking for happiness in the wrong places.

Now he's motivated and confident and he's helping others get to that "next lever in life"-one that matters. Kevin explains that "it's where each of us can make things happen by embracing the positive messages and intentions that work for us." Kevin and his podcast co-host Alan Lazaros, are helping people "level up their life, their love, their health and wealth-physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health."

Kevin's journey had some ups and downs, as we all do, but "Next Level University" Podcast is helping people all over the world.

It was such a delight to speak with Kevin. I love what he's doing and I'm looking forward to having a conversation with his co-host Alan in  the future.

These stories that he shared about Beth and Meema, are heartwarming, encouraging and just a so eye opening. It's not always easy raising our children but it seems that these two women did an amazing job helping Kevin along.

Each woman played a unique role in my guest's life. As a single mom, Beth juggled a lot.

He wasn't particularly happy but it was work. He was lost and didn't see a future. His mom encouraged him to try opportunities that came his way, even if they didn't work out as planned.

Her mom, Ann, was never  going to change. A mother who stuck to her routine whether it was taking a long bath, bike ride, going to the gym , it was all about he needs and wants and not her daughter's. Ann had a tough childhood, grew up in a strict household, so she was going to raise Diane the same way. 

There are so many layers to this story, including Diane saying "she has no fond memories of her mother and no other female role models in life." Diane even mentioned that she's blocked out many of her teen years because the family relationship was so bad.

Diane Lang is the author of  3 books: “Creating Balance & Finding Happiness”, “Baby Steps: The Path from Motherhood to Career” and “Mindfully Happy- waking up to life.”

Diane is such an inspiration. She's redirected her own future. She has a loving relationship with her husband and daughter-nothing of which she ever experience as a child living alone in a house with parents who didn't lover her or didn't know how to express their love.

Many wonderful lessons learned from this conversation. You  control  your  destiny, don't blame everyone else if life doesn't turn out the way you expected and it's important to let go of the anger, hate or resentment. There are many upsides to Diane's journey and her years of studying.  "I wouldn't be the person that I am today. I'm completely grateful for that and I can see how far I've come and  grown.  I can be the person who's  empathetic and compassionate because of my childhood or despite my childhood," reflects Lang.

People are on this planet to teach us for better or worse.

]]> Tue, 23 Jul 2024 02:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (Diane Lang, Jackie Tantillo, should have listened to my mother podcast) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/my-mother-was-unable-to-change-the-generational-cycle-of-abuse-with-guest-counselor-and-positive-psychology-coach-diane-lang-mVdwTKZ9 "It was all just about her," Lang explains. Her mom, Ann, was never  going to change. A mother who stuck to her routine whether it was taking a long bath, bike ride, going to the gym , it was all about he needs and wants and not her daughter's. Ann had a tough childhood, grew up in a strict household, so she was going to raise Diane the same way. 

There are so many layers to this story, including Diane saying "she has no fond memories of her mother and no other female role models in life." Diane even mentioned that she's blocked out many of her teen years because the family relationship was so bad.

Diane Lang is the author of  3 books: “Creating Balance & Finding Happiness”, “Baby Steps: The Path from Motherhood to Career” and “Mindfully Happy- waking up to life.”

Diane is such an inspiration. She's redirected her own future. She has a loving relationship with her husband and daughter-nothing of which she ever experience as a child living alone in a house with parents who didn't lover her or didn't know how to express their love.

Many wonderful lessons learned from this conversation. You  control  your  destiny, don't blame everyone else if life doesn't turn out the way you expected and it's important to let go of the anger, hate or resentment. There are many upsides to Diane's journey and her years of studying.  "I wouldn't be the person that I am today. I'm completely grateful for that and I can see how far I've come and  grown.  I can be the person who's  empathetic and compassionate because of my childhood or despite my childhood," reflects Lang.

People are on this planet to teach us for better or worse.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

]]> My Mother Was Unable to Change the Generational Cycle of Abuse with Guest Counselor and Positive Psychology Coach, Diane Lang Diane Lang, Jackie Tantillo, should have listened to my mother podcast 00:28:51 Diane Lang, this week's guest, is an Author, Counselor, Educator, National Speaker, Certified Positive Psychology Coach, wife and mother. She retired recently after seventeen years teaching at Montclair State University in Montclair, New Jersey. The youngest of five children who was reminded on a regular basis, by her parents, that she was a mistake or an "oops" baby, is just the beginning of her story. To say she's turned her life around is an understatement and she credits her mother, "The truth is I don't want anybody to ever have to suffer the way I suffered, says Lang. I don't want anybody to have to feel such a state of unworthiness." So it is because of or despite her mother, that Diane turned her life around and she's proud to say "I changed that generational cycle."

And I couldn't have agreed more.

Ophelia, My guest's mother and one of twelve children, was born in Chester County, Pennsylvania.  Faith shares stories of her mother and how enthusiastic and encouraging she was. She wanted Faith to experience anything and anywhere, including a love for a robust education, traveling with her mom and dad and Faith  loved spending time with her grandmother and mother and listening to stories about the family from past generations.

Faith also loved spending time outdoors in nature exploring. When she was a young girl she lived in rural Michigan mainly because her mother insisted her daughter go to an excellent school.  They found a farmer who was desperate to sell his home and though it was an all white, restricted community, he sold it to the Mitchell's. 

Her mom used to say, "Faith, make something of yourself," and because the country was still segregated her mom used to speak to her and say "Black people have to progress and education is the way to progress."  Another reflection Faith shared with me is another favorite saying of her mom's which is "the parent opens the door and the child walks through."

There's so much more to this conversation. I hope you enjoy the listen. Faith is fascinating. She's passionate about this country and the journey of her forefathers and all that they fought for in order to become the best that they could be.

My guest was sure to point out that "Ophelia was smart, inquisitive and open to learning anything and everything.She studied to be a teacher."

"Both women are ancestors who have been inspirations to me because of their sense of agency--which comes across in the photos--and their courage against the odds. 

Captured in the photo of Faith and her mother Ophelia - "it captures my mother and me in 1963 in the Painted Desert and reflects the fact that my parents valued exploration even in the pre-Civil Rights period when most Black people didn't have an opportunity to travel--and it could be dangerous to do so. My mother tried to open doors for me whenever she could and that's the terminology she used," Faith recalled.

The cards are precious records of correspondence between Faith's maternal grandmother, Emma and her friend's and family. Faith felt this was a goldmine of historical references which had been tucked away for far too long. Throughout this conversation, my guest shares stories of her mother Ophelia, her grandmother Emma and great grandmother Isabel who was born in 1848 and was twelve years old when the Civil War started.

She's been studying, exploring and researching how or why she feels as though she had lost her true self, and now she's doing something about it. She's written several books, won many awards for her approach and understanding of bringing "the best of you" forward and getting the best payoff possible.  This approach has helped many  personally, which in turn has helped them professionally.

There's no doubt about it, Elinor and her mother, have lots of issues, as do many  sons and daughters. Elinor explained how her mother's love came with "strings attached and/or waiting for the other shoe to drop." It started when Elinor was very young, four years old, and she realized that she was unable to speak her truth. She became the martyr always trying to save her mother.

Through hypnosis, and an analysis of  her female  lineage from her mother's side of the family, she came to understand that "they had forgave their desires and they had all forgone their dreams and my guest didn't want to continue down this spiral. She wanted to break this chain and be a spirited, wise and inspirational voice for others.

Lots more to this story and you're able to learn more from Elinor on her podcast, Deconstructing YOU.  

In 2025, "Powerhouse In Prison" Elinor's next book will be published and she goes into details about "the mental shackling that diminishes the experience of yourself and how that plays out. When you break the ceiling, the walls come caving in."  She admits, "she had to break down to break out."

Gina's bio in her own words:

About Me

I'm Gina Kunadian, and let me tell you about my incredible journey. I'm a passionate wife, a nurturing mother, a certified massage therapist, and the host of the captivating podcast show Shine Within. But my true calling lies in being an alcohol-free sobriety coach, dedicated to helping women overcome their alcohol dependency in a way that goes beyond the traditional 12-step programs. I firmly believe in empowering my clients to cultivate unshakeable confidence, gain clarity, and unleash their boundless energy, so they can step into their creative potential and live the lives of their dreams, completely free from the grip of alcohol.

Before stepping into the realm of entrepreneurship, I excelled as a weight loss consultant, guiding countless women towards achieving and maintaining their weight goals. My expertise grew even further during my remarkable 16-year journey as a Massage Technician at the prestigious Four Seasons Hotel in Silicon Valley. Working with high-profile guests in such a demanding environment taught me the art of providing unwavering support to clients navigating through highly-stressful situations.

Yet, what truly defines me is my personal triumph over alcoholism. My path to recovery was filled with ups and downs as I explored various treatment options, from inpatient and outpatient programs to counseling, AA meetings, and rehab. But it was through surrendering to my faith that I discovered the key to building a life of lasting sobriety.

My journey is one of resilience, transformation, and hope. I stand as a shining example that liberation from alcoholism is possible. I'm here to guide and support individuals, helping them break free from the chains of addiction, and embracing a future filled with extraordinary possibilities. Together, let's embark on a journey of self-discovery and create a life that shines with purpose and fulfillment.

She had a terrible childhood with an verbally and emotionally abusive mother. She did eventually embrace her relationship with her mother and forgave her.

My guest, Gina is convinced that she can help with ones sobriety. She's living proof that you can change your life and be healthy and happy. "I have dedicated myself to creating a transformative process called the "Transformation SHINE Process." This unique framework is designed to empower other women on their journey to recovery, enabling them to reclaim their lives, achieve their goals, and live life on their own terms."

Gina's business philosophy "SHINE an acronym  for the healing  that represents the steps of our transformative journey together. 

S is for Sobriety. H stands for Healing. I represents Inspiration. N embodies Nurture. E signifies Empowerment."

Gina's bio in her own words:

About Me

I'm Gina Kunadian, and let me tell you about my incredible journey. I'm a passionate wife, a nurturing mother, a certified massage therapist, and the host of the captivating podcast show Shine Within. But my true calling lies in being an alcohol-free sobriety coach, dedicated to helping women overcome their alcohol dependency in a way that goes beyond the traditional 12-step programs. I firmly believe in empowering my clients to cultivate unshakeable confidence, gain clarity, and unleash their boundless energy, so they can step into their creative potential and live the lives of their dreams, completely free from the grip of alcohol.

Before stepping into the realm of entrepreneurship, I excelled as a weight loss consultant, guiding countless women towards achieving and maintaining their weight goals. My expertise grew even further during my remarkable 16-year journey as a Massage Technician at the prestigious Four Seasons Hotel in Silicon Valley. Working with high-profile guests in such a demanding environment taught me the art of providing unwavering support to clients navigating through highly-stressful situations.

Yet, what truly defines me is my personal triumph over alcoholism. My path to recovery was filled with ups and downs as I explored various treatment options, from inpatient and outpatient programs to counseling, AA meetings, and rehab. But it was through surrendering to my faith that I discovered the key to building a life of lasting sobriety.

My journey is one of resilience, transformation, and hope. I stand as a shining example that liberation from alcoholism is possible. I'm here to guide and support individuals, helping them break free from the chains of addiction, and embracing a future filled with extraordinary possibilities. Together, let's embark on a journey of self-discovery and create a life that shines with purpose and fulfillment.

Her books are fun, informational and beautiful to look at. Bonnie was given some sound advice about  becoming an author and says "my specialty is making complex information more accessible."  Advice she was given when first starting out was "to write about something that you really care about and  know about."

"Nudi Gill: Poison Powerhouse of the Sea" was released in 2023 and she loves teaching kids about Nudibranch-(sea slugs. pronounced noo-dee brink). Coming in 2024 are two more books, "Wonder of the Woods" and  "Quail Trail."

Sharon, Bonnie's mom, had her head in a book from a young age. She loved her relationship with the characters and it became her safe and happy place.  Sharon worked hard in high school  wanting to get  a scholarship so she could continue on to college. She became an english teacher and eventually worked her way up from bookkeeper to  Exec Director of a Non Profit.  Sharon worked at "United Community Ministries and Micro Enterprise for twenty plus years.

After retirement, Sharon still had more dreams and aspirations to pursue. What she was most moved by was making people laugh. Her daughters stepped in and encouraged her to pursue her stand-up comedy dreams.  They set up a Youtube page, "Sharon Kelso Comedy Diva." https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=sharon+kelso+comedy+diva

It's never too late to fulfill your dreams and Sharon Kelso is a perfect example of all the surprises life hands us, if we're willing to let go of our insecurities and take that risk!

She was a huge inspiration in his life and had hoped to take her on a special trip to Israel for her sixtieth birthday. He did eventually get to bring her with him but not exactly as they had imagined.

At the same time that his mother was ill, his father had a stroke. Just a tough time for the family, but Adrienne insisted that Jeremiah carry on and continue on his journeys however different they may be.

Adrienne was the main money maker in the family. She was the first female technician at Sears, initially repairing smaller appliances and eventually washers and dryers in customers homes. When she'd had enough of that, she moved onto repairs for  Sears -in store cashiers, computer systems and video surveillance. Yes, she had to put up with sexism and discrimination in the workforce, but staying true to herself, she put her head down and just kept on working-never looking for any accolades or special treatment.  Even if she did win an award, Jeremiah says, "she'd put any certificates or awards from work in a drawer.  She didn't need to be celebrated."

Jeremiah was there at the Oncologist appointment when Adrienne got the diagnosis and he was there when she died 6 years later. She knew he had his trip planned to go to Egypt and she insisted he go. It made him very sad to know she wasn't going to be there when he returned.

It was an absolute pleasure speaking with Jeremiah and I thank him for sharing his very personal stories of his mom Adrienne.

There's so much more to hear in our conversation and I've listed more information below about Jeremiah.

Jeremiah is a poet in addition to his other talents. The question below is an excerpt from an interview which originally appeared in Inspired Eye, Issue 71, July 2019. It gives you another perspective of my guest.

"What purpose does photography serve for you?

The essayist Joan Didion once wrote that “We forget all too soon the things we thought we could never forget. We forget what we whispered and what we dreamed. We forget who we were.” For me photography is both a way to remember and a way to share my experiences. Here is where I went and here is what I saw, and hopefully I saw something in a way others had not."

Below is an excerpt from Jeremiah's website about his most recent award winner book released in 2023, "On to Plan C: A Return to Travel"-

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Friedman passionately emphasizes, "I love struggling moms, they're trying to heal generational trauma through their own parenting."

Ms. Friedman also provides services through  a membership program called childanxietysupport.com, for parents who are parenting anxious kids. We all know the number of anxious kids in the world today is overwhelming, especially because of the past year and a half and COVID.

"Mom is a survivor of an extremely abusive childhood.  As an abusive survivor, intimate relationships are more complicated," suggests Friedman. She continues, "mom did a lot of good things in her life and she doesn't have any more good to give."

Dawn's mother Joyce, never got to go to college and yet she always implied that she wanted Dawn to have more than she did. "She wanted me to have it better than her and she raised be to believe  that I deserved that, but at a certain point, she wanted me to stop growing perhaps because she felt left behind," Friedman sadly admits.

The family moved around quite a bit for her dad's job when Dawn was young-at least 6 times until Dawn's mom refused to move again. Within a few years, her parents divorced and Joyce negotiated a settlement for her divorce-instead of alimony, Joyce requested a certificate for a tech school-in place of alimony, Dawn's mom went to a computer school for programming.

Once school was completely and Joyce got a job, her life really turned around. She was happy again.

Looking Back @ S2E43 Sharon, Shaun's mom had 2 kids and  was living in subsidized housing when she  started her janitorial  business in the CD, central district of Seattle, WA.  People laughed and were critical of her because she was 'cleaning houses' but mother knew best.  Lots of drugs and crime hit their neighborhood in the 1980's and she knew she had to make a living to get her kids out of that neighborhood.

Mom's dream was greater than her pride" says her son.  "Mom had a dream and she didn't want my  sister and I living in this neighborhood," Shaun says with such high esteem for his mother.

The 'drugs in the neighborhood' conversation was a regular occurrence.   Shaun and his sister regularly had the 'safety' conversation with their mother. Mom told us , "once the street lights go on, you have to be off the streets.  It's not safe."

Mom was unstoppable and Shaun has a very special story to tell about his mom and a prominent drug dealer in the community.  It's a very touching and ironic story of trust.

1991-1992 Sharon and her son Shaun picked up moved to the Atlanta, Georgia area.  Mom and dad had never married and they realized it wasn't going to work out long term, so Sharon was determined to relocate with Shaun and join her daughter in Georgia attending college.  Miss Mayweather, their guardian angel, helped them get set up in her home  after their rental property was roach infested.

Shaun speaks so highly of his mom.  Throughout so much adversity, Shaun says "they never lacked anything", we were always covered and protected."  "My mother was so resourceful, she never gave up" continues her son.

"Mom is the cook at Camp Warrior King, the camp that Shaun and his mom started for kids in the Atlanta metro area. The kids loved the food because Sharon was the cook.  These kids love all of these 'all you can eat' meals, often the only meal they have all day.  Some of the favorites are fried chicken, mashed potatoes, biscuits, green beans or breakfast for  dinner or Italian day, the list goes on and on.

Shaun is an entrepreneur, just like his mother. The fruit doesn't fall far from the tree. Because of Sharon's education background, she was an ideal partner for Shaun to start up this wonderful camp.

"Honeybee" is Shaun's nickname for his mother.  "She reminds me of a bee-always buzzing around."  Shaun lovingly brags "the kitchen at camp is called "Honeybee's Kitchen."

Donna is the first born twin to a boy and the second set of twins was also boy/girl. She basically in the middle of the seven children.

To add to Donna's many talents, she is also the long time English announcer on the Shinkansen bullet train, from Tokyo to Osaka.  She refers to herself as an entrepreneur, which she says she inherited from her dad. In addition to lending her voice to many genres, she also has a business called "Royal Flush" Japan Toilet Sound Maker.  There's a Japanese cultural love affair with sound effects that mask any noises one may make while busy on the toilet!

The video games that she's featured on, including  her singing songs and character roles in video games are  Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill 2 and 3.

My guest's mum had a very rough childhood. Marg's mother, Donna's maternal grandmother, was an alcoholic. Her second husband was a pedophile. Marg and her older sister were in and out of orphanages, treated horribly while they were there. So the two sisters figured out that they could pretend that their life was better than it actually was. The two sisters felt so much shame about their broken family, parent's divorced, etc so they decided it was a good idea to dream up a different past. This was a coping mechanism which seemed to help. When Marg was 14-15 years old, her biological father eventually let Marg live with him once he saw the horrific conditions she had been living in.  

Donna loved to sing and really tried very hard to get every opportunity to perform when she was a teen. Unfortunately her mom, busy with all the kids, didn't really realize how passionate Donna was and how committed she was to fulfilling her dreams of being a performer. 

Come 1996, Donna realized it was time to get away from Australia and ventured on to live in Japan. She is still there today with a budding career -using her voice for singing monster hits from legendary video games  and doing voice overs, including the job as the english announcer on  one of Japan's bullet trains.

Marg has been to Tokyo to visit her daughter and loves spending time in Tokyo. Marg also was thrown into the spotlight because of the notoriety of her daughter's voice as the announcer on the Shinkansen bullet train. The video interview went viral  and that was Marg's first experience with real fame.

Though Donna's mom had a dark childhood for many, many years, she still instilled in her children that it okay and important                 "to be kind to yourself and it's okay to love yourself "

Donna Burke has a wonderful sense of humor, though at times her childhood may have been a bit chaotic, her sense of humor staid intact. I so enjoyed speaking with her about her mom Marg.

   One of Marg's favorite songs  that Donna sings is "Sins of the Father."

"Sins of the Father" is a song from the game Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. It was first featured in the E3 2013 trailer.

The lyrics were written by Ludvig Forssell, performed by Donna Burke and composed by Akihiro Honda.

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

]]> Tue, 14 May 2024 02:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (Australian Singer Donna Burke, Austsralian voice over artist Donna Burke, Should Have Listened to my Mother Podcast, jackie tantillo, SHLTMM Podcast) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/its-okay-to-love-yourself-with-guest-australian-singer-and-voice-actor-donna-burke-h_X6GR0M Donna Burke explains that her mum gave birth to seven children of which there are two sets of  twins. Donna is the first born twin to a boy and the second set of twins was also boy/girl. She basically in the middle of the seven children.

To add to Donna's many talents, she is also the long time English announcer on the Shinkansen bullet train, from Tokyo to Osaka.  She refers to herself as an entrepreneur, which she says she inherited from her dad. In addition to lending her voice to many genres, she also has a business called "Royal Flush" Japan Toilet Sound Maker.  There's a Japanese cultural love affair with sound effects that mask any noises one may make while busy on the toilet!

The video games that she's featured on, including  her singing songs and character roles in video games are  Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill 2 and 3.

My guest's mum had a very rough childhood. Marg's mother, Donna's maternal grandmother, was an alcoholic. Her second husband was a pedophile. Marg and her older sister were in and out of orphanages, treated horribly while they were there. So the two sisters figured out that they could pretend that their life was better than it actually was. The two sisters felt so much shame about their broken family, parent's divorced, etc so they decided it was a good idea to dream up a different past. This was a coping mechanism which seemed to help. When Marg was 14-15 years old, her biological father eventually let Marg live with him once he saw the horrific conditions she had been living in.  

Donna loved to sing and really tried very hard to get every opportunity to perform when she was a teen. Unfortunately her mom, busy with all the kids, didn't really realize how passionate Donna was and how committed she was to fulfilling her dreams of being a performer. 

Come 1996, Donna realized it was time to get away from Australia and ventured on to live in Japan. She is still there today with a budding career -using her voice for singing monster hits from legendary video games  and doing voice overs, including the job as the english announcer on  one of Japan's bullet trains.

Marg has been to Tokyo to visit her daughter and loves spending time in Tokyo. Marg also was thrown into the spotlight because of the notoriety of her daughter's voice as the announcer on the Shinkansen bullet train. The video interview went viral  and that was Marg's first experience with real fame.

Though Donna's mom had a dark childhood for many, many years, she still instilled in her children that it okay and important                 "to be kind to yourself and it's okay to love yourself "

LOOKING BACK AT S2E42 I  wanted to give you an update on Lorraine's mom, since our original publication of the episode was in November, 2021.  Lorraine's mom, Angelina, passed away in March 2023, at 100 years old. And Lorraine let me know that it was taking some time to adjust to not having her mom with her by her side. Lorraine  took care of her mother for many, many years.

I'm also attaching a copy of Lorraine's NY Times "Tiny Love Story," writing submission which was published in   September 2021.

NY TIMES "TINY LOVE STORY" : 9.19.21                "Our First Days"

In some pre-fall cleaning, I waded through more than 2,500 family photos. Only one made me cry. It wasn’t the image of me in my parochial school jumper but my mother’s note on the back of that picture: “Oct. 1964. Lorraine first grade. My first day of work.” She became a single mother when I was 2. After years out of the work force, she returned as a telephone company operator. Many of the employees were younger. My mother must have been scared. But she did it for us, and in 1984, she retired as an executive at the same company. — Lorraine Duffy Merkl

 Once Lorraine and I agreed on a date and time to record the interview, I started doing more research on her background and experience.  On her website, http://lorraineduffymerkl.com/, I found one of her demo reels from way back when she was writing and producing promos for a number of different tv networks. As I'm listening to one of her promo reels, I thought I heard something that sounded vaguely familiar.  On her promo reel for Lifetime Television  was my voice over  featured on at least 3 of her promos.  It turns out we had worked together back in the early to mid to late 90's and neither of us recalled meeting, let alone working together.  I was in the recording booth and she in the master control room. We were both in awe and thanking the universe for bringing us back together. This time I was interviewing Lorraine and asking her the questions.

Now on to the the real story of Lorraine and her mother Angelina. Angelina raised her only daughter, Lorraine, as a single mom after her husband left when Lorraine was only two years old. Yes, she had the help of her mother, Lorraine's grandmother, but it wasn't easy.  We all know that it's tough being a single parent.  But after seven years of being out of the work force, scared and nervous, mom went back to work taking an entry level position as an operator at a phone company at the age of 42.  Angelina had never gone to college yet retired decades later as an executive from that same company.

"My mom was a member of the Greatest Generation, she experienced the  Depression and poverty, went back to work though frightened and did all of this so my life would be easier," says Merkl. "Together we can fight over anything or standup to anyone," reflects Lorraine. 

In time, Angelina would reveal things to her daughter saying "I was holding on by a thread."  In order for Angelina to keep things organized at home,  she felt that she had to be tough and discipline her daughter.  Lorraine feels that her mom was "operating off of fear all the time." Again, it's understandable when your husband walks away and leaves you to raise your daughter .

Lorraine so admires her mother, "being apart brought us closer together," reflects Merkl. At 24 years old, after having moved out  on her own, she and her mother became friends and so enjoyed each other's company. "She was a giver, not a taker, helpful and kind.

At the time of this interview, Angelina is living with and being cared for by her daughter. She is 98 years old and suffering from dementia.  My guest has so many wonderful memories of her mother, including  advice for her to "stick up for yourself," "mom  always wanted me to be somebody who could stick up for themselves," says Lorraine.

Don't let anyone fool you. Angelina is one of 13 children of an Italian family and raised  in the Bronx, NY. She was very smart as well as being very street smart.  

"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.

his musical adventures. He couldn't get enough.  

He not only credits his mother for guiding him on his musical journey, but it was also his grandmother's music box that intrigued him to no end, then and still today.

And here he is today, over 60 years  working in the music industry. He's recorded eleven albums and his most recent, release in 2023 titled, "Songs, Dreams, Circumstance."

There's so much more to  Stephen's story. I hope you enjoy getting to know Stephen's mom and all that she instilled in her son, including being aware and caring for others. She's also remembered for 

using the phrase, "play the ball where it lands," and "make a plan and work a plan." Both of these expressions helped Stephen stay the course when perhaps his Tourette Syndrome got in his way.

An absolute pleasure spending time getting to know Stephen and he says he's "a dedicated Neurodiversity advocate."

What is Tourette syndrome?

Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neurological disorder that may cause sudden unwanted and uncontrolled rapid and repeated movements or vocal sounds called tics. TS is one of a group of disorders of the developing nervous system called tic disorders.

The motor (involving body movement) or vocal (involving sounds you make) tics of TS come and go over time, varying in type, frequency, location, and severity. If you have tics, you cannot stop your body from having them. The first symptoms usually occur between the ages of 5 and 10 years, generally in the head and neck area. These may progress to include the muscles in your torso, arms, and legs. Motor tics generally occur before the development of vocal tics. 

Tourette syndrome affects more boys than girls. Most people with TS experience their worst tic symptoms in their early teens, but tics typically lessen and become controlled by the late teens to early 20s. For some people, TS can be a chronic condition with symptoms that last into adulthood. In some cases, tics may worsen in adulthood. TS is not a degenerative condition (one that continues to get worse) and individuals with TS have a normal life expectancy.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

He's easy going, insightful, entertaining and talented.  He clearly loves his kraft. He's an accomplished                                                                                                                              

pianist, drummer, guitarist and vocalist. My guest studied jazz, pop and classical music genres. When Stephen was a young boy, he saw the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show, and that was the beginning of

his musical adventures. He couldn't get enough.  

He not only credits his mother for guiding him on his musical journey, but it was also his grandmother's music box that intrigued him to no end, then and still today.

And here he is today, over 60 years  working in the music industry. He's recorded eleven albums and his most recent, release in 2023 titled, "Songs, Dreams, Circumstance."

There's so much more to  Stephen's story. I hope you enjoy getting to know Stephen's mom and all that she instilled in her son, including being aware and caring for others. She's also remembered for 

using the phrase, "play the ball where it lands," and "make a plan and work a plan." Both of these expressions helped Stephen stay the course when perhaps his Tourette Syndrome got in his way.

An absolute pleasure spending time getting to know Stephen and he says he's "a dedicated Neurodiversity advocate."

Sometimes life has an unexpected way of teaching us lessons and the life of Anthony McDuffie Jr, perhaps took him on a more  circuitous and difficult route to finding his true self.

At a young age, he experienced the loss of a loved one and was subject to inner city crime and violence.  He went looking for support in the wrong places and eventually got mixed up in crime which led to incarceration. Yet what followed, through studying, hard work and spirituality, was redemption, resilience and forgiveness.  After 15 years behind bars, he was released a new man.

While in prison, I know there were tough years for Anthony, wondering "why me" or all the "what -ifs" or "wrong place, wrong time," scenarios OR maybe "I should have listened to my mother" conversations he had with himself.

Today Anthony has written two books, "Grit, Grind & Glory" and "My Life In Poetry."  He's written about lessons learned, finding a mentor, igniting the seed of change as well as how to encourage and inspire youth to succeed.  He's a motivational speaker and certified  mental health First Aider.  HIs transformative journey includes graduating form "Give a Beat's"-"On A New Track"             Re-entry Mentoring Program in 2021, where he became a performing artist.

Shottie, Anthony's mom, wrote to her son regularly while he was incarcerated. While incarcerated, Anthony desperately longed to see his mother, hold his mother and talk to his mother.  

Where do you think  he went directly upon release?

Thank you  again Anthony. There are many unfortunate kids out there that now will benefit from your experience and your example.

Looking Back at S2E41 "Grenada is  very traditional" says my guest, Moksha, who was born and raised on the island and now lives in the US. "A large portion of  Grenadians still believe that 'little girls should be seen and not heard' and girls should concentrate on domestics and house keeping," continues my guest. Coincidentally, that 'saying' about little girls is an English proverb.   Grenada was colonized by the English from 1763 to 1974 and then by the French from 1979 to 1983 so they still have a residual effect of these different ruling cultures.  "House, car, land," those were the presupposed priorities for a young married woman.

I love that Moksha say "mothers are the culture keepers," and it's so very true. What would we do without our mom's telling us stories about the generations before us. There was definitely some conflict between Moksha and her mom because my guest often questioned things from a very young age. In particular, she had questions about spirituality and religion which she explained was way too complicated to cover in one episode of SHLTMM.

An overprotective mother believes she's doing what's best for her daughter, but not so in Moksha's case. It created more conflict around the house and that wasn't beneficial to anyone.  What seemed to be the hardest part was her lack of freedom.  She was never a daughter to sneak out at night, instead she just told her parents that she was going out.  She just knew who she was and what she needed out of life from a young age. And when it came to Moksha dating or meeting new male friends, that was definitely NOT going to happen based on her parents beliefs.

Cecelia's mom  always believed in the benefits of higher education, so she continues to study to learn and improve  her  opportunities with her own business, "Celebration Cakes." With a high school education she began different jobs but keep in mind "girls were supposed to stay home with domestic work,"Moksha says. It was the boys, who continued with school and were able to take jobs.

Moksha is dialed into nutrition/diet and wellbeing and it all began with her mother's knowledge and love for native foods in Grenada. Food is an important part of the culture and family in Grenada and traditions are handed down generation to generation.  Moksha's business "Sovereign Eats,"  is  all about food and it's healing properties. It's unfortunate, but Moksha feels that so much of the cultural ideas of her home land have been left behind.  She's hoping to keep those traditions alive by sharing her knowledge through Sovereign Eats.

When asked if Moksha thought her mom had regrets about her limitations as a young girl, she said "yes, absolutely, most likely based on her mom's past and boundaries put on her when she was a young girl."

Check out Moksha's Sovereign Eats website at 'sovereigneats.com.'

 

"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.

]]> Tue, 16 Apr 2024 02:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (Moksha, jackie tantillo, should have listened to my mother) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/mothers-are-the-culture-keepers-with-guest-founder-of-sovereign-eats-moksha-looking-back-at-s2e41-EZ2CYbp0 "Grenada is  very traditional" says my guest, Moksha, who was born and raised on the island and now lives in the US. "A large portion of  Grenadians still believe that 'little girls should be seen and not heard' and girls should concentrate on domestics and house keeping," continues my guest. Coincidentally, that 'saying' about little girls is an English proverb.   Grenada was colonized by the English from 1763 to 1974 and then by the French from 1979 to 1983 so they still have a residual effect of these different ruling cultures.  "House, car, land," those were the presupposed priorities for a young married woman.

I love that Moksha say "mothers are the culture keepers," and it's so very true. What would we do without our mom's telling us stories about the generations before us. There was definitely some conflict between Moksha and her mom because my guest often questioned things from a very young age. In particular, she had questions about spirituality and religion which she explained was way too complicated to cover in one episode of SHLTMM.

An overprotective mother believes she's doing what's best for her daughter, but not so in Moksha's case. It created more conflict around the house and that wasn't beneficial to anyone.  What seemed to be the hardest part was her lack of freedom.  She was never a daughter to sneak out at night, instead she just told her parents that she was going out.  She just knew who she was and what she needed out of life from a young age. And when it came to Moksha dating or meeting new male friends, that was definitely NOT going to happen based on her parents beliefs.

Cecelia's mom  always believed in the benefits of higher education, so she continues to study to learn and improve  her  opportunities with her own business, "Celebration Cakes." With a high school education she began different jobs but keep in mind "girls were supposed to stay home with domestic work,"Moksha says. It was the boys, who continued with school and were able to take jobs.

Moksha is dialed into nutrition/diet and wellbeing and it all began with her mother's knowledge and love for native foods in Grenada. Food is an important part of the culture and family in Grenada and traditions are handed down generation to generation.  Moksha's business "Sovereign Eats,"  is  all about food and it's healing properties. It's unfortunate, but Moksha feels that so much of the cultural ideas of her home land have been left behind.  She's hoping to keep those traditions alive by sharing her knowledge through Sovereign Eats.

When asked if Moksha thought her mom had regrets about her limitations as a young girl, she said "yes, absolutely, most likely based on her mom's past and boundaries put on her when she was a young girl."

Check out Moksha's Sovereign Eats website at 'sovereigneats.com.'

 

"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.

Born and raised on the Caribbean island Country, Grenada, just north of Trinidad and Tobago, her relationship with the earth and indigenous foods of Grenada are still dear to her heart.

Looking Back at S2E38 Today, Kevin Jerome is the proud owner of four companies, a far cry from what  he thought his future would be when he was a teen.  " A kid who grew up in a 2 bedroom apartment, living with 14 people, evicted twice as a teen," says Jerome, " I'm  a true example of how you can turn your life around."

At a young age, Kevin  taught himself to read and eventually how to drive out of necessity.  He realized that no one else was going to help him, so he better learn on his own.  It's that kind of determination and foresight that helped him become who he is today.

My guest is curious as to  why "so many of us allow our past to hold us down?"   Experiencing anxiety and insecurity because of changing schools and moving repeatedly as a teen, Kevin would now tell his younger self that "it's better to  try, take chances and possibly fail, than not trying at all. But again, don't let your past define you. That was a very trying time for the young Jerome but he was determined to not have it define him.

Kevin and his mother, Marie, have a loving relationship. However, Kevin understands that there were certain circumstances that got in the way when he was growing up- she was preoccupied with other family matters when Kevin needed her most.

One thing that Kevin has be certain about  "I've always wanted to be rich in mind-emotionally, spiritually and financially."  He says his religious background played a part in his life philosophies, but it's his spiritual path that grounded him most.

He lives in the Fort Lauderdale area of  Florida.

You'll find links below to catch up on the latest from Costas.

The thought of his mother finding out about the  crazy stuff Costas was up to as a teen, kept him on the straight and narrow.  He says, "she was the bad cop, dad was the good cop."  Costas and his mom are very close. There is seven years between he and his younger brother, so Costas and his mom had many years together and developed a wonderful relationship.

In this episode, Costas shares stories of Lemon's childhood up in the hills of Ikaria during WWII where they suffered through regular bombings from the Italian troops and had little food. We can all imagine what it takes to feed seven children.  Yet, Costas has a lifetime of wonderful memories from his visits to the Greek island-all of which he shares with his children.

Costas talks about a tremendous work ethic that he feels he got from both his mother and father, yet he truly respects why it was so important for his mother to instill the significance of resilience and self-reliance in her children.  Those lessons are the same that he has chosen to instill in his own children today.

Enjoy the episode and thanks for listening,

Norris, Should Have Listened To My Mother Podcast, jackie tantillo 00:31:00 This is the story of a mom who was a dreamer and a rebel. She's one of a large family raised during the depression, so she knew well enough about hard work and empty stomachs. And according to my guest, Robert W. Norris (Bob), his mother Kay, was very, very fair to others, she was a great listener and didn't judge people. This is the story of a mom who was a dreamer and a rebel.

Looking Back at S2E40. He's not a professional comic but laughter comes easy for David Thomas. It's actually one field that he hasn't tried professionally, but would love to some day.  Thomas is a Global Professional Speaker and a CEO Presentation Skills Coach. In case you haven't heard about his crazy memory abilities,  he's also an International Grandmaster of Memory, broken Guinness record for reciting Pi to 22,500 digits, became US Memory Champion and so much more.  

From the age of 4, David recalls the nightly sexual abuse  he suffered  from his alcoholic mother, Gillian and then the years of physical abuse from his step-father.  David had a younger brother to protect, so he kept this secret to himself to be certain that his younger brother would not be exposed to any of it.

Unfortunately, David's mother died in her early 50's, almost 21 years since the time of this recording. She died at a young age due to an alcohol induced heart attack.  David was happy that he had put  his neglect behind him in order to move forward prior to his mother's death. They had rekindled their relationship.

 As if the abuse wasn't enough, David also attempted suicide twice, but was not successful.  When asked if this was life changing or a sign that he was meant to live a long life, his response was,  "no, not at all, it meant that I was just terrible at trying to kill myself." Again, gallows humor, but it's easy for him to make light looking back so many years later.

David  wanted to help others who had suffered abuse under the hand of loved ones, so he wrote what turned out to be a #1 bestselling book in the UK, "Tell Me Why Mummy"- An inspirational  true story of one man overcoming enormous odds including sexual abuse from his alcoholic mother to choose his own path in life and become  and become a truly exceptional human being.

Thomas says "you only have 3 choices in life as far as moving on after an abusive, challenging upbringing-

  1. You carry on living with your problems, but it will eventually take you down.
  2. You remove it
  3. Or you manage it"

Therapy and researching and writing his book help free himself from the horrors of his childhood.

Sean Kelly has this magic of making you feel that anything is possible .  He loves helping people achieve their dreams. That said, he's launched "Do the Big Dream." You can find more information about his 15 step formula for achieving any dream and his foundation pillar skills. More info at  http://dothebigdream.com/.

In this episode you're going to hear some eye opening stories of adventures of  Sean and his mom, including driving 618 miles from Nevada to California when Sean was a young boy.  Linda trusted her son and they relied on each other for many years. Sean will be the first to say that he generally speaks of lessons learned from his father-both good and bad. Sharing his story on SHLTMM  was a great opportunity for him to share all the attributes of his mother, Linda. 

With Sean's dad already living in Germany, Linda had to work full time to support she and her son. By the age of  nine, Sean's parent's divorced, yet thought it a good idea for all to move to Germany together. Living check by check was risking but allowed the trio to have wonderful get-aways, taking Sean out of school and traveling all over Europe. His mom's feeling was that her son was going to learn way  more by traveling  country to country and seeing all of Europe rather than sitting in a classroom.

Linda was an artist. She was passionate about photography and painting, painting flowers in particular.  Unfortunately, she wasn't comfortable sharing her works, possibly because of fear of criticism or judgement. Or perhaps she painted to make herself happy and didn't need to have anyone else see it . Linda was diligent about her craft. She traveled to Paris and visited  all the finest museums and studied what interested her most, then went home and painted. Unfortunately, Sean shares details of a tragic end to his mother's treasures.

Linda and Sean's dad met when Linda was a senior in high school and his father, a photographer for a local newspaper after returning from  serving in Vietnam. The young couple had a terrible time trying to conceive a child yet while at a revival retreat in Mexico, the minister told Linda that she was in fact pregnant and pregnant with "a very special child."  And that "God has great plans for this child."  So imagine Sean's mom sharing this story with her son on a regular basis, so Sean clearly felt that he was destined to accomplish great things. Sean shares stories of doubt while engaged in combat in Iraq where he felt he was going to die, yet felt deep down that "I  don't think I've fulfilled what God has for me yet," and carried on through combat. 

Sean thanks his mother for constantly reinforcing  that he's capable of doing anything he wants in life, if he sets his mind to it. Linda also made sure that Sean understood that God had special plans for him.

Sean Kelly is the creator and founder of the very successful tv series here in the US and  England, "Storage Hunters."

You can hear more about Sean and his experience of being abandoned by his parents in Italy as a teen on the podcast "Do It Now" with host Sara Moses. He finished high school on his own then moved to Italy, again on his own.

One of Sean's philosophies is "if you want to do something, just go do it." And he's learned from a number of hard knocks in his life as a learning experience.

And please listen through to the end  to hear stories of Sean's grandmother who grew up on a farm in North Dakota and was raised by her older brothers and was a business owner when not many women were.

Sharing his story on SHLTMM  was a great opportunity for him to share all the attributes of his mother, Linda. 

With Sean's dad already living in Germany, Linda had to work full time to support she and her son. By the age of  nine, Sean's parent's divorced, yet thought it a good idea for all to move to Germany together. Living check by check was risking but allowed the trio to have wonderful get-aways, taking Sean out of school and traveling all over Europe. His mom's feeling was that her son was going to learn way  more by traveling  country to country and seeing all of Europe rather than sitting in a classroom.

Linda was an artist. She was passionate about photography and painting, painting flowers in particular.  Unfortunately, she wasn't comfortable sharing her works, possibly because of fear of criticism or judgement. Or perhaps she painted to make herself happy and didn't need to have anyone else see it . Linda was diligent about her craft. She traveled to Paris and visited  all the finest museums and studied what interested her most, then went home and painted. Unfortunately, Sean shares details of a tragic end to his mother's treasures.

Linda and Sean's dad met when Linda was a senior in high school and his father, a photographer for a local newspaper after returning from  serving in Vietnam. The young couple had a terrible time trying to conceive a child yet while at a revival retreat in Mexico, the minister told Linda that she was in fact pregnant and pregnant with "a very special child."  And that "God has great plans for this child."  So imagine Sean's mom sharing this story with her son on a regular basis, so Sean clearly felt that he was destined to accomplish great things. Sean shares stories of doubt while engaged in combat in Iraq where he felt he was going to die, yet felt deep down that "I  don't think I've fulfilled what God has for me yet," and carried on through combat. 

Sean thanks his mother for constantly reinforcing  that he's capable of doing anything he wants in life, if he sets his mind to it. Linda also made sure that Sean understood that God had special plans for him.

Sean Kelly is the creator and founder of the very successful tv series here in the US and  England, "Storage Hunters."

You can hear more about Sean and his experience of being abandoned by his parents in Italy as a teen on the podcast "Do It Now" with host Sara Moses. He finished high school on his own then moved to Italy, again on his own.

One of Sean's philosophies is "if you want to do something, just go do it." And he's learned from a number of hard knocks in his life as a learning experience.

And please listen through to the end  to hear stories of Sean's grandmother who grew up on a farm in North Dakota and was raised by her older brothers and was a business owner when not many women were.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

"They had high expectations all the way."  It didn't help Gina's cause that one of her teachers told her mother that "you could be an outstanding student if you tried." But in time the message paid off.

Now a proud mother of three and a Childbirth Attorney, Gina works full time as did her mother. It's that balance of working all day and time to spend with kids after school on the field, cheering them on from the sidelines.

Susan or Sue, "was the brains behind  the operation" says my guest about her mother working full time as the VP of "Champion Screw Machine Engineering" in Michigan.  Sue was also passionate about playing her guitar. She performed regularly at the Contemporary Services at their local church in addition to being a Sunday School Teacher.

One of the most significant messages Gina has learned from her mom is to be non-judgmental. "She always told me, the easiest thing you can do is talk behind someone's back," continues Mundy, "If you can't say it to their face, don't say it. My mother is by far, one of the most positive people I have ever met."

Gina's was also very close with her maternal grandmother, Sue's mom.  Grandmother and daughter had similar personalities and when ever the three grandkids went to spend time with their grandmother, she was sure to drop everything and loved spending every minute with them. Gina was so proud to have been asked to  deliver the eulogy at her grandmother's funeral service.

My guest's message comes from the heart and as a Childbirth Attorney, she wants couples to be prepared and aware of the nuances of a delivery room and the benefits of choosing the best doctors possible to help ensure  the delivery of a  healthy baby and a happy mother.

Gina's recent book is titled "A PARENT’S GUIDE TO A SAFER CHILDBIRTH- EXPECTING THE BEST:USING THE POWER OF KNOWLEDGE  TO HELP YOU DELIVER A HEALTHY BABY.”

A childbirth attorney for over 20 years, Gina wants to give her readers the tools to prevent any accidents that may possible take place in the delivery room.

She delves into what happens during birth and trying to figure out from the delivery team  what exactly happened.   Her goal is to help parents prepare for child birth to make sure these mistakes and complications don't happen during the birth, so they can have a healthy baby and mother. She suggests that getting involved before birth can help save lives.   

Mundy insists " the book isn't about about what can go wrong but making sure it all goes right."

With over thirty years of experience, he's now written his first book titled, "Shoes," and it is a significant story because it mirrors his youth  and his relationship with his mother.

As one of the founding members and producing artistic director of "Stagewalkers Productions",  based in Los Angeles, CA,  it gave the younger generation with creative, artistic and acting backgrounds to have a home base to sharpen their acting tools.  It was a safe place for those who were interested in developing their craft of acting or any theatre related topic.

Speaking with Russell was so easy. His rich stories of his childhood with his family  are so intriguing.  Born and raised in Huntsville, TX, then his family moved  to Houston.  You'll hear stories of Blanche Williamson who hired Russell's grandmother as a domestic and then Ms. Williamson hired Dorothy. "Blanche was a friend of the family, beyond being an employer," Russell recalls. "The Williamson family was so loving and  generous they were like family." Working with this lovely family allowed Dorothy to make her way  through Nursing school at Alvin Community College and so much more. Russell says "that she, (meaning his mother),  changed the trajectory of what was know in my family."

All of the wonderful memories and lessons of his mother that Russell  recalls have been passed onto his two children. To this day, he recalls how his mother could laugh at herself, tackle anything without fear, and how she was full of hope and optimism.

Don't miss a minute of this conversation. 

And thanks so  much for  listening.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Raising three children while practicing medicine full time was her inspiration for her book "So Many Babies" sharing the hard truths about juggling the roles of a working mother.

Her family  sent her away for months to a facility in Evanston, IL,  for single mothers until her baby was born, never to speak of the incident again. Though it was a closed adoption, eventually my guest was able to track down her biological mother. 

The unfortunate part of the story was the unsettling abuse that Jeannine  suffered  at home from a young age. Jeannine was never good enough, she looked different than her adoptive parents and two younger, not biological siblings, she was fat, etc.

"The mental abuse was so tricky"shares Jeannine. A phrase she heard and felt on a regular basis was "you're only good enough if you.........  Fill in the blank with 'are pretty, skinny, look like us, etc.  Carol would repeatedly say, "girls are so bad, you are so fake, you don't know how to love anybody" continues Jeannine.  

Very driven, my guest was  on a journey to find herself and her real mother. Jeannine says there was something inside her that was  silently directing her to things otherworldly and intangible. She left a successful business career to dive into a more Eastern philosophy of life and spiritual knowing.

Ms. Kim says " she  always felt different and was looking for appreciation and acceptance on a regular basis."

For 24 years, Jeannine has been offering healing wisdom and guidance to clients worldwide as an Intuitive Reader, 5D Astrologer, Medium, H.H.P., Yogi, Teacher and Author.

In listening to our conversation, Jeannine will explain,  "mother is mantra." She explains further, "I love saying Mother IS Mantra, as  the way that all she is (inside and out) or does or says ..it stays with us, it repeats ...all of it (for better or worse)... just like we do with Mantra." 

My guest continues, "this is not my story anymore."

Though it was a closed adoption, eventually my guest was able to track down her biological mother. 

The unfortunate part of the story was the unsettling abuse that Jeannine  suffered  at home from a young age. Jeannine was never good enough, she looked different than her adoptive parents and two younger, not biological siblings, she was fat, etc.

"The mental abuse was so tricky"shares Jeannine. A phrase she heard and felt on a regular basis was "you're only good enough if you.........  Fill in the blank with 'are pretty, skinny, look like us, etc.  Carol would repeatedly say, "girls are so bad, you are so fake, you don't know how to love anybody" continues Jeannine.  

Very driven, my guest was  on a journey to find herself and her real mother. Jeannine says there was something inside her that was  silently directing her to things otherworldly and intangible. She left a successful business career to dive into a more Eastern philosophy of life and spiritual knowing.

Ms. Kim says " she  always felt different and was looking for appreciation and acceptance on a regular basis."

For 24 years, Jeannine has been offering healing wisdom and guidance to clients worldwide as an Intuitive Reader, 5D Astrologer, Medium, H.H.P., Yogi, Teacher and Author.

In listening to our conversation, Jeannine will explain,  "mother is mantra." She explains further, "I love saying Mother IS Mantra, as  the way that all she is (inside and out) or does or says ..it stays with us, it repeats ...all of it (for better or worse)... just like we do with Mantra." 

My guest continues, "this is not my story anymore."

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Looking Back at S2E36 Father Jim  can hardly contain himself when asked about his mother.  "She was my biggest supporter, she's one of the main  reasons I became a priest."  Renea loved all her children equally, so she said on a regular basis, but Father Jim is convinced he was her favorite.

He was loved by his doting mother who often protected him from his older brother's rough housing as you can imagine. 

Nana, his maternal grandmother, lived with the family many years and was also  an integral part of Father Jim's cherished childhood.   The two often listened to music together which is  one of the many reasons my guest has such a love for music of the 40's, 50's and more.

An avid piano player and singer,  Father Jim performs regularly for his congregation and his community.  Music is a huge part of his life and so much of that passion stems from his childhood, his nana and his mother, Renea.

Just a few years prior to this interview, Father Jim had a massive heart attack while driving on the highway.  And yet some how he miraculously survived  the "widow maker"-he needed  quintuple bypass surgery-five arteries were completely blocked. He professes that his faith had something to do with saving his life, giving him another chance to help those in need.

Father Jim shares many wonderful stories of his priesthood and how proud his mother was of his vocation.

Miles Before  her children were born, Betty was a teacher. Later in life, when the kids were older, she began working at the Tennessee Aquarium and worked there for more than twenty five years, some of the happiest years of her life.

 John is the oldest of three children, two boys and one girl. His parents raised him from a young age, with the understanding that  children had to learn how to do things on their own, to figure things out and learn how to be self sufficient.  John continues  "they provided the essentials for us, but if there were things we wanted above and beyond that, they needed to be earned." HIs parents were good parents who taught their children to help others, be active in the community, volunteer for others, etc. "They had very high expectations for the person they wanted me to become in life".

John had a tragic accident when he was a young boy. It was his mother's reassuring attitude  and encouragement that helped John heal and gain back his sense of self confidence. Betty was determined and resolute in helping her son believe in himself again.

When listening to "Passionstruck," John's podcast, you'll come to understand the challenges he still has today from that accident, but his perspective is that it happened for a reason and does not let it get in his way. His guests are insightful and well versed in successes and failures and all that's  entangled with each of these experiences.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

It's no wonder that Sara has continued this passion for higher education as do her seven children.

She's had several remarkable careers but she cherished the sixteen years that she had with her mom exclusively. They were  very close and had a wonderful relationship.

Sara Chana's grandfather was Abe Saperstein,  the founder, owner and earliest coach of the Harlem Globetrotters.

Because of the choices her mom made, Periwinkle is thriving in part because of therapy and wants everyone to know that there is help out there.  "If we share our stories, we can help each other and make some real change,"says the WTYM podcast host.

"My mother was sweet, loving and a caring person who suffered a lot," says  Periwinkle. She thinks that her mother would be very proud of her and all that she's accomplished.

Periwinkle says "she is her mother's vengeance."

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Looking Back at S2E33 As an only child, Kristina got lots and lots of love.  Many of the life lessons Kristina learned from her mom as a child, she's able to use with her own children, and that makes her  happy.  Judy, Kristina's mom, was always very giving and she never expected anything in return.  Her mother's advice was "do what you love." So at 6 years old, Kristina began to write books and stories and she's still writing today.

Looking back, Kristina respects and appreciates her mother's kindness, patience and calming voice. Kristina also cherishes her grandmother's passion for reading. To this day, Kristina recalls seeing her grandmother's bookshelves lined with books. "My grandmother would read an entire book in one day," says Cappetta. That love of literature, certainly came from her grandmother and she's passed that passion down to her own children.

Kristina seems to connect more easily with people who have  close relationship's with their mother. She says, "the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree." Still having her mom close by geographically and emotionally is so important and she loves that her children have a strong relationship with their grandmother.

The more love the better.

She left home at the age of 17 and traveled by train to Vancouver, Canada to begin her career,

Unexpectedly, Genevieve found herself pregnant at 23 with no significant partner by her side. She, along with her older sister and brother in law, kept this personal secret from the rest of the family, including her parents. At the time, Genevieve was a celebrity performer in the ice skating spectaculars  of the 1940's and 50's. 

The story unfolds so nicely in Ed's book, but he's sure it wasn't as easy as that for Genevieve. As we were having our conversation, Ed mentioned that he's already started writing a sequel.

I must make note that, Nina Di Gangi, Ed's adoptive mom, was very loving and caring and went to great lengths to follow through with Genevieve's wishes and desires for the best outcome for her son. And to this day, he still calls his adoptive mom,  "mom." And it's astonishing, the similarities between the two mothers. The coincidences/similarities in their likes and characteristics is profound.

It's truly a remarkable story, that I'm sure you'll enjoy.

While living in Hollywood, CA, he appeared in dozens of films, television and stage productions. He has scripted jokes, screenplays, greeting cards and more. Now he's celebrating the release of his book "A Cup of Tea on the Commode," his journey of ups and downs and learning the details of caring 24/7 for his adoring mother.

The book is full of hysterical stories of the six siblings growing up on a cult-de-sac in the suburban town of Ridgewood, NJ.

Becoming a first time parent as his mother's caregiver, Mark had many ups and downs but he knew that the most important thing was that his mother was taken care of with respect and love. He had to make sure that his mother trusted him and that she understood that he would always be respectful and have her best interests at heart.

SHLTMM TESTIMONIAL GINA KUNADIAN JUNE 18, 2024

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

There definitely was a big adjustment to make culturally and that took a tole on Mayim as a young teen. 

With both parents working full time, Mayim was often left to her own devices. She's very happy that her children are not exposed to the same socio-cultural conflicts. All of her nine children are home schooled. 

  Mayim did a complete about face when it came to her career. She used to be a computer scientist and engineer at NASA Ames Research Center in Moffet Field, CA. Now she is a Naturopathic Herbalist and founder of  Arukah- the Holistic Life Academy.  In other words, Mayim is someone that uses all sorts of holistic methods for healing, including diet, nutrition, orthomolecular nutrition-mega dose vitamin therapy and  detoxification including toxic mindset/toxic relationships, etc.

Corazon or Cora as her mom likes to be called had a positive impact on her daughter's life regardless of the fact that she worked and worked and worked when Mayim was young. 

Hope you enjoy this conversation.

There are wonderful memories that Robert shares during this conversation yet because it's been decades since his mom's passing, he's not sure if his memories are actual reality or perhaps slightly embellished because of his longing for happy memories of his mother.

"She was a wild child. Undeniably a product of the swinging 60's," reflex Shaffron about his dear mom. She was always good to him and seemed to keep an eye out for others who were in need of help or assistance.

As a realtor in New Jersey, Robert takes on the role of therapist and realtor for his clients and he loves it. His warm and  caring personality, who I assume he got from his mother, is perfect for stressed out families looking for their next perfect home.

Leila, Bobbi's mom was loving and had her hands full with eight children. She had an orderly way of making sure everything got done and the kids all happy. She also took the time, morning and evening, to spend a few minutes with her husband.  The family traveled together and spend lots of time enjoying their adventures by the sea.

From Bobbi's Website "Fly Mom Fly": https://www.flymomfly.com/

Author, Podcaster and Advocate for the Empty Nest Mom.

Since becoming an Advanced Practitioner of Life Coaching and Practitioner of Neuro Linguistic Programming with The Coaching Institute in Melbourne, Australia in 2008, as well as a Reiki Practitioner in 1997, Bobbi has helped hundreds of women breakthrough challenging life transitions.

​She is the author of The Post Nest Plan, 10 Reasons You May Not Be Happy & 10 Remedies So You Can Be, 12 Steps to Self-Empowerment, creator of the Self Inventory for the Savvy Sisterhood workshop, has contributed in self-help features for Cleo & Cosmopolitan magazines in Australia, wrote the weekly Life Matters column for an Australian newspaper, and penned the viral quote "Your perception of me is a reflection of you; my reaction to you is an awareness of me." in June 2012

​She knows her purpose and it's this: "You matter in this world. If I'm going to help myself, I'll help you, too."

Her style, content and delivery stems from her own personal experience of going through challenges that are similar to her audience, using her expertise to coach herself through them, and then bringing those self-inventory techniques and newfound awareness to women who are struggling.

She brings humor, self-deprecation and realness along with empathy, a deep and personal understanding of pain, and the ‘Australian mateship’ attitude: the bonds of loyalty and equality, and feelings of solidarity and sisterhood.

Leila, Bobbi's mom was loving and had her hands full with eight children. She had an orderly way of making sure everything got done and the kids all happy. She also took the time, morning and evening, to spend a few minutes with her husband.  The family traveled together and spend lots of time enjoying their adventures by the sea.

From Bobbi's Website "Fly Mom Fly": https://www.flymomfly.com/

Author, Podcaster and Advocate for the Empty Nest Mom.

Since becoming an Advanced Practitioner of Life Coaching and Practitioner of Neuro Linguistic Programming with The Coaching Institute in Melbourne, Australia in 2008, as well as a Reiki Practitioner in 1997, Bobbi has helped hundreds of women breakthrough challenging life transitions.

​She is the author of The Post Nest Plan, 10 Reasons You May Not Be Happy & 10 Remedies So You Can Be, 12 Steps to Self-Empowerment, creator of the Self Inventory for the Savvy Sisterhood workshop, has contributed in self-help features for Cleo & Cosmopolitan magazines in Australia, wrote the weekly Life Matters column for an Australian newspaper, and penned the viral quote "Your perception of me is a reflection of you; my reaction to you is an awareness of me." in June 2012

​She knows her purpose and it's this: "You matter in this world. If I'm going to help myself, I'll help you, too."

Her style, content and delivery stems from her own personal experience of going through challenges that are similar to her audience, using her expertise to coach herself through them, and then bringing those self-inventory techniques and newfound awareness to women who are struggling.

She brings humor, self-deprecation and realness along with empathy, a deep and personal understanding of pain, and the ‘Australian mateship’ attitude: the bonds of loyalty and equality, and feelings of solidarity and sisterhood.

Traveling from South America to the United states in order to protect her children, Margarita explains all that her mother endured, including risking all of their lives as well as her mother leaving behind her entire family, just for her children's safety and future.

Carolina, Margarita's mother overcame seemingly insurmountable challenges. Standing at a mere five feet, she was stronger than any giant. And Margarita has learned the significance of not letting fear get in ones way. 

Her mother taught her so many lessons including the significance of "stepping into who we are and being all that we were meant to be."  And regardless of the risks, and there were many, her mother taught her about being brave enough to face challenges and "risking everything to step into ones worth."

I hope you enjoy this episode about bravery, optimism, overcoming resentment and anxiety and finding your true strength regardless of your obstacles.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Traveling from South America to the United states in order to protect her children, Margarita explains all that her mother endured, including risking all of their lives as well as her mother leaving behind her entire family, just for her children's safety and future.

Carolina, Margarita's mother overcame seemingly insurmountable challenges. Standing at a mere five feet, she was stronger than any giant. And Margarita has learned the significance of not letting fear get in ones way. 

Her mother taught her so many lessons including the significance of "stepping into who we are and being all that we were meant to be."  And regardless of the risks, and there were many, her mother taught her about being brave enough to face challenges and "risking everything to step into ones worth."

I hope you enjoy this episode about bravery, optimism, overcoming resentment and anxiety and finding your true strength regardless of your obstacles.

The one thing that each new life event had in common: change was coming. And with change, there is an opportunity. It’s what you do with that opportunity that matters. With each life event, a connection could be made. The most important connection is the one that matters the most, the connection with OURSELVES." And Sylvia continues, "life changing events can lead to a happy beginning."

For anyone going through life changes, of any capacity, "Life Apres" is there for you. "Life Apres's" motto is "we support women going through all stages of life changing events. It's a nonjudgemental place to help women to open doors."

Gray refers to the two ladies as "delicious opposites," "one daringly non traditional, the other, so relentlessly old fashioned."

This dual biography, seemingly written so effortlessly by Gray, sheds light on personal and private stories of the true relationship of mother and son.  Both women were born in 1854 and raised their devoted sons to become some of the finest world leaders to this day. Franklin and Winston, since childhood,  had been given a strong sense of security and belief in themselves by their mothers, according to Gray's research. Though both women had very different styles of  raising a child, they were both brilliant and influential in their son's future. 

I highly recommend this interview. It was such a delight to speak with Charlotte Gray and  experience all that she uncovered in writing this book.

Her podcast, "Finding Beautiful Stangers," is also a nominee for the 2023 People's Choice Podcast Awards as is SHLTMM. Winners will be announced September 30, 2023.

Abby was very gracious in sharing stories of her childhood which today remain significant in her life. She was fortunate to have a very close family  and to have her grandparents very much involved in her life. She claims to have been a tom-boy growing up, much to her mother's chagrin, more interested in baseball than 'girly things.'

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Looking Back at S2E21 Dr. Ramani's parents repeatedly explained to their daughter  that education was the most important thing  in her life in order to be respected and taken seriously . There was  no way around potential bias toward a young Indian woman regardless of the fact that she was born in the United States and  an American citizen.

The oldest of two daughters, Dr. Ramani took this responsibility very seriously and is now a very successful doctor concentrating on helping those exposed to Narcissistic behavior.

Because of her mother's experience, Dr. Ramani has accomplished all that she has.

Sai, Dr. Ramani's mother, was at the top of her high school class in India and  ready for admission to medical school when she was told to forget about medical school because you are going to get married and move to the United States.  An arranged marriage was way more important.  A woman, had to get married at that time because they weren't considered as valuable as a son.

Dr. Ramani's mother is not narcissistic, but Dr. Ramani has had direct experience with friends and others  who suffer from  narcissistic behavior.

She is the author of two books:

"Don't know Who I Am" & "Should I Stay Or Should I Go".

"If you’re looking to donate to relief efforts, I recommend Hawaii People’s Fund, Hawaii Community Foundation, or the Public Schools Foundation of Hawaii.

 

Hawaii is made up of 137 islands, but only 7 of the 8 largest islands are inhabited. The 7 major Hawaiian islands are Oahu, Maui, Hawaii (Big Island), Kauai, Molokai, Lanai, and Niihau. Kahaoolawe is the 8th largest Hawaiian island, but it's against the law to visit unless you're there for a valid volunteer work opportunity.

Doris was a single mom and worked as a Social Worker at the Bronx Court House.  Soon enough she found a job there for young Jay so as to keep him out of trouble and off the streets.  Jay had been a latch key kid, often on his own when he was younger and his mom didn't want him getting into trouble as he got older.

"Because there was no real 'dad' figure in  the home, family and friends often helped out to fill in as a father figure including  my Uncle Johnny," say Jones.  There were often many people willing to help Doris and her family because Doris was always helping others.  

Doris was insistent that Jay from a young age, "treat others with respect, do the right thing, and be honest. My mom would always say "watch out for Karma."

Jay would hate to ever break his mother's heart. "I want to continue to make her proud. I want to keep helping others  like she helped so many struggling  families." Jay goes on to say "it's all about love."

Rutkin says, "I do think that I learned that from my mom.  My mom was always someone who gave back." 

Thinking back of what her home life was like after her parents divorce, Lauren says "my mom was present, but not in the way teenagers need, -in the critical ways, she wasn't present."

Unfortunately, mental illness played a big part in Lauren's mom's inability to properly care for her daughters. Later on, under the care of her doctor, medication helped and she was very good at her job at Head Start. "She did feel like her life was saved in some ways by some of these medications. She was able to raise her adopted daughters very effectively," says Lauren. 

Lauren believes her mom had a gift though she was very troubled.

Lauren's mom definitely had some limitations and problems but she had a huge heart and worked very hard as a social worker.

Unfortunately, Gail's two biological daughters suffered after the divorce because Gail was unable  to give them the crucial things that her girls wanted. Yes, their mom was present, but not fully and that was very hard for Lauren to understand.

Head Start and Early Head Start programs are free, federally funded programs designed to promote school readiness for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers from families that meet income eligibility requirements. Early Head Start programs support pregnant women and families with children younger than age 3 years.

There's so much more to Lauren's story. I hope you like the episode.

]]> Tue, 11 Jul 2023 02:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (Lauren Rutkin, should have listened to my mother podcast, jackie tantillo, SHLTMM Podcast, Geller) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/so-gifted-yet-troubled-with-guest-executive-director-of-philanthropy-and-dei-programming-at-geller-lauren-rutkin-2Ixd4Fo_ Lauren believes that she's gotten her interest in the philanthropic and not-for-profit industry, from her mother. Rutkin says, "I do think that I learned that from my mom.  My mom was always someone who gave back." 

Thinking back of what her home life was like after her parents divorce, Lauren says "my mom was present, but not in the way teenagers need, -in the critical ways, she wasn't present."

Unfortunately, mental illness played a big part in Lauren's mom's inability to properly care for her daughters. Later on, under the care of her doctor, medication helped and she was very good at her job at Head Start. "She did feel like her life was saved in some ways by some of these medications. She was able to raise her adopted daughters very effectively," says Lauren. 

Lauren believes her mom had a gift though she was very troubled.

Lauren's mom definitely had some limitations and problems but she had a huge heart and worked very hard as a social worker.

Unfortunately, Gail's two biological daughters suffered after the divorce because Gail was unable  to give them the crucial things that her girls wanted. Yes, their mom was present, but not fully and that was very hard for Lauren to understand.

Head Start and Early Head Start programs are free, federally funded programs designed to promote school readiness for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers from families that meet income eligibility requirements. Early Head Start programs support pregnant women and families with children younger than age 3 years.

There's so much more to Lauren's story. I hope you like the episode.

How about 3rd or 4th chances? Sometimes we feel down on our luck, but most of us can't truly comprehend the depth of that statement, and how it relates to those who have been incarcerated, including those incarcerated for decades with no real education  and no work experience to help them when released. 

New York Times reporter, Ginia bellafante, wrote the article "Starting Over After Years in Prison: a Compassionate Path."  It was published Sunday, April 2, 2023 and highlighted the challenge of reintegrating older people after dacades of being incarcerated and reintroducing them to society without skills or a comprehensive education.

Also mentioned in the NY Times article is Christina Green, the  director of the “Marcus Garvey supportive housing program in Brownsville, Brooklyn. In March 2019, after her release from incarceration, she joined the “Workforce Development Group”, which lead her to a position as a ‘community health worker.  In time, Christina rose to ‘program director’ at the ‘HJN’-The Health Justice Network, which in turn lead her to her current position as ‘program director’ at Marcus Garvey beginning in March 2022." 

Christina is invested in paying forward the support she received to other people reentering society. She says that most applicants who have been approved, spent about 20-40 years incarcerated. Marcus Garvey provides permanent housing and additional reentry services for people returning from incarceration. From financial and tech literacy classes to interview preparation, Christina hopes to make these important reentry services easier to access for residents at Marcus Garvey.

One of the biggest obstacles Christina had to overcome was forgiving her mother as well as her stepfather in order to heal and turn her life around. She's committed to helping others who have had similar experiences with substance abuse and incarceration and is "grateful for the journey." "I feel I can be a light and bring other people to recovery and help to give them the tools in order to succeed after their incarceration."

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

]]> Tue, 13 Jun 2023 02:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (Christina Green, NY Times Columnist Ginia Bellafante, should have listened to my mother podcast, jackie tantillo, shltmm podcast) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/she-forgave-her-mother-in-order-to-heal-from-addiction-abuse-and-incarceration-with-guest-director-of-supportive-housing-the-osborne-association-marcus-garvey-christina-green-mkaMCYzF Do you believe in 2nd chances in life? How about 3rd or 4th chances? Sometimes we feel down on our luck, but most of us can't truly comprehend the depth of that statement, and how it relates to those who have been incarcerated, including those incarcerated for decades with no real education  and no work experience to help them when released. 

New York Times reporter, Ginia bellafante, wrote the article "Starting Over After Years in Prison: a Compassionate Path."  It was published Sunday, April 2, 2023 and highlighted the challenge of reintegrating older people after dacades of being incarcerated and reintroducing them to society without skills or a comprehensive education.

Also mentioned in the NY Times article is Christina Green, the  director of the “Marcus Garvey supportive housing program in Brownsville, Brooklyn. In March 2019, after her release from incarceration, she joined the “Workforce Development Group”, which lead her to a position as a ‘community health worker.  In time, Christina rose to ‘program director’ at the ‘HJN’-The Health Justice Network, which in turn lead her to her current position as ‘program director’ at Marcus Garvey beginning in March 2022." 

Christina is invested in paying forward the support she received to other people reentering society. She says that most applicants who have been approved, spent about 20-40 years incarcerated. Marcus Garvey provides permanent housing and additional reentry services for people returning from incarceration. From financial and tech literacy classes to interview preparation, Christina hopes to make these important reentry services easier to access for residents at Marcus Garvey.

One of the biggest obstacles Christina had to overcome was forgiving her mother as well as her stepfather in order to heal and turn her life around. She's committed to helping others who have had similar experiences with substance abuse and incarceration and is "grateful for the journey." "I feel I can be a light and bring other people to recovery and help to give them the tools in order to succeed after their incarceration."

Looking back At S2E15 While Lisa was growing up, she and her family travelled  quite a bit, usually related to her father's work in New York, Texas, California and London.

One of Lisa's fondest memories of her mother was sitting down together and having tea and talking about anything and everything including boys. "You have to look at the way a guy behaves and not just what he says" her mom would say. 

Lisa always felt that her mother was completely devoted to raising her and her adopted brother Peter.  "She was always very available," recalls Lisa. 

Her parents were very different and she understood how her mom would say "opposites attract." Yet Lisa's mom was a very strong woman who guided her husband and they made important work/family related decisions together.

Lisa established a relationship with her birth mother when she was 27 years old and has a budding relationship with her step sister.

However, seeing that this podcast is about the relationship between my guest and the story of their mother, Lisa was very specific about telling the story of 'her mother,' the woman who loved her and raised her. Rosemarie  passed away in 2000 and Lisa misses her dearly.

YET AT TIMES, CHILDREN CAN GET CAUGHT IN A PUSH PULL RELATIONSHIP WHEN SOMETIMES THEY WANT TO RUN YET FEEL THE NEED TO PROTECT, SHOW COMPASSION WHEN LEAST LIKELY INCLINED TO AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT MOTHER’S INITIAL INTENSIONS DIDN’T ALWAYS WORK OUT THE WAY THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO.

Kate has been writing about mothers and motherhood, among other topics, for decades.  Her mother passed away December 25, 2022.  Kate felt that this opportunity to reflect on her mother's legacy was timely.  She loved her mother and is in awe of all of her complexities. There's one incident that Kate shares in our conversation, had the outcome changed, who knows who Kathleen would have become.

I can't thank Kate Moses enough for her candid reflection of her relationship with her mother. They were the best of friends and then had to learn to let each other grow in their own way.

You will thoroughly enjoy reading Kate's work.  Titles are listed below.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Excerpt below from Notre Dame Magazine Autumn 2021

https://magazine.nd.edu/stories/better-than-fiction/

"And then I saw the Old Knitting Factory, and my heart started beating faster. The name called to me first: I have always loved to knit, and my dream had been born at the Dublin knitting show.

The listing showed a long, white-and-yellow house nestled on the rugged, overgrown shore of a Connemara lake. Built in 1906, it was a mess: crumbling paint and peeling vinyl floors, a leaky roof and a cinder-block-lined backyard. It had been built, the listing said, to teach rural women knitting skills to support themselves.

A house built to foster women’s independence and centered on my favorite craft: It had been reincarnated in the 1970s as an Irish-language cinema and later as a jewelry-making studio. In recent years, it had been a little-used vacation home, and parts of it were well-nigh falling down. It was more witch’s cottage than castle, though I’ve always been more of a witch than a princess anyway.

The house was one hell of a fixer-upper, but so was I. In my hollowed and leaking heart, I carried a soul-deep longing to find a haven for myself and my baby."

Allison. Looking Back At S2E14 Sara, Allison's mother, "was all about lightness, air, love, encouragement and positivity," says Allison. "She let me live my life. She never really went out of her way to advise me or critique my life, and I respect her for that." Allison continues by saying "my mother cultivated independence in her children and she encouraged us to always tell the truth." 

"Honesty and integrity"  were essential characteristics for her and her family. As Allison says "she walked the walk." However, as optimistic and lighthearted as she was, she was struggling with an unhappy and difficult husband who was an alcoholic. And as one can expect, the dad's drinking had an effect on the whole family, especially the kids.

It wasn't until Allison's mother found Al Anon, the support organization for anyone who's concerned about someone with a drinking problem, that she found her new sense of self esteem. "My mom started standing up to my dad because of all that Al Anon taught her. Eventually, my day had to change. he had to adapt to her self confidence."  Sara was a proud member of Al Anon for 35 years.

I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with Professor Allison and I look forward to continuing our conversation in the near future.

 

Professor Scott Allison has authored numerous books, including Heroes and Heroic Leadership. His other books include Reel Heroes, Conceptions of Leadership, Frontiers in Spiritual Leadership, and the Handbook of Heroism. His work has appeared in USA Today, National Public Radio, the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, Slate Magazine, MSNBC, CBS, Psychology Today, and the Christian Science Monitor. He has received Richmond's Distinguished Educator Award and the Virginia Council of Higher Education's Outstanding Faculty Award.

Allison, should have listened to my mother, jackie tantillo) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/host-jackie-tantillo-shes-my-number-one-hero-with-guest-professor-emeritus-scott-t-allison-looking-back-at-s2e14-wOSJ6jFh Sara, Allison's mother, "was all about lightness, air, love, encouragement and positivity," says Allison. "She let me live my life. She never really went out of her way to advise me or critique my life, and I respect her for that." Allison continues by saying "my mother cultivated independence in her children and she encouraged us to always tell the truth." 

"Honesty and integrity"  were essential characteristics for her and her family. As Allison says "she walked the walk." However, as optimistic and lighthearted as she was, she was struggling with an unhappy and difficult husband who was an alcoholic. And as one can expect, the dad's drinking had an effect on the whole family, especially the kids.

It wasn't until Allison's mother found Al Anon, the support organization for anyone who's concerned about someone with a drinking problem, that she found her new sense of self esteem. "My mom started standing up to my dad because of all that Al Anon taught her. Eventually, my day had to change. he had to adapt to her self confidence."  Sara was a proud member of Al Anon for 35 years.

I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with Professor Allison and I look forward to continuing our conversation in the near future.

 

Professor Scott Allison has authored numerous books, including Heroes and Heroic Leadership. His other books include Reel Heroes, Conceptions of Leadership, Frontiers in Spiritual Leadership, and the Handbook of Heroism. His work has appeared in USA Today, National Public Radio, the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, Slate Magazine, MSNBC, CBS, Psychology Today, and the Christian Science Monitor. He has received Richmond's Distinguished Educator Award and the Virginia Council of Higher Education's Outstanding Faculty Award.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Williams. Looking Back At S2E10 How would you feel after your sister told you that " mom wished she could have left you at the hospital after you were born." Well that was a crushing blow to my guest, but because of the help from her grandparents, Precious was able to mend her broken heart.

At the age of 15, Precious moved into her grandparents house and under their loving roof, she began to heal.

Her paternal grandmother, also named Precious (Delores Williams), taught her daily affirmations for positive  reinforcement. The teen was never allowed to wander out in the street not left at home alone.She began to do well in school and eventually went to Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia with the support as the very first recipient of a Bill and Melinda Gates scholarship.  And Precious didn't stop her education at the undergraduate level.  She went on to get her law degree.  And the rest is history.

"My grandparents gave me life, they loved me to life. They took a cold hard-core teenager and turned her into a moosh. My grandmother spiritually birthed me."

People say, "time change," but in this particular conversation, it's hard to believe that after decades of women making major strides in the work force, suddenly you take a look and realize, maybe we're not as progressive as on would have hoped.

My guest, Kate Zernike, is a 2002 Pulitzer Prize winning National Correspondent for the New York Times. She is the author of "Boiling Mad: Inside Tea Party America" from 2010. Her most recent book, "The Exceptions-Nancy Hopkins, MIT, and the Fight for Women in Science."  My guest originally broke this story in 1999 as a reporter for The Boston Globe.

Science is not new to Kate. Her father and grandfather were Physicists and her grandfather won the Nobel Prize in Physics for the invention of the 'Phase Contrast Microscope."

At a young age, Kate recalls her mother's interest in applying to law school. Advice her mom received was less than encouraging, and yet today, it's been suggested that perhaps kate is 'finishing up what her mother started.' 

Advice that was bestowed upon Kate while walking with her father on the beach one day reinforced how much her dad supported everything that Kate's mom was trying to accomplish in breaking down barriers for women.  It was a significant conversation that Kate still holds close to her heart.

"We're still not taking women seriously...... so that's what brought me back to this story," says Kate confidently.

It's so wonderful to have Kate with us to fill in all rest of the details.

People say, "time change," but in this particular conversation, it's hard to believe that after decades of women making major strides in the work force, suddenly you take a look and realize, maybe we're not as progressive as on would have hoped.

My guest, Kate Zernike, is a 2002 Pulitzer Prize winning National Correspondent for the New York Times. She is the author of "Boiling Mad: Inside Tea Party America" from 2010. Her most recent book, "The Exceptions-Nancy Hopkins, MIT, and the Fight for Women in Science."  My guest originally broke this story in 1999 as a reporter for The Boston Globe.

Science is not new to Kate. Her father and grandfather were Physicists and her grandfather won the Nobel Prize in Physics for the invention of the 'Phase Contrast Microscope."

At a young age, Kate recalls her mother's interest in applying to law school. Advice her mom received was less than encouraging, and yet today, it's been suggested that perhaps kate is 'finishing up what her mother started.' 

Advice that was bestowed upon Kate while walking with her father on the beach one day reinforced how much her dad supported everything that Kate's mom was trying to accomplish in breaking down barriers for women.  It was a significant conversation that Kate still holds close to her heart.

"We're still not taking women seriously...... so that's what brought me back to this story," says Kate confidently.

It's so wonderful to have Kate with us to fill in all rest of the details.

Bob refers to himself as “just a retired former journalist, freelance writer and communications guy.”  However, Mr. Gatty started blogging about politics in 2017, and now, thousands of blogs later, he has followers all over the world. 

He cut his journalistic legs while working with the Pittsburgh Courier, an African American weekly. In time, he worked at a number of PA papers, eventually leading him to be named ‘bureau chief’ at the state capital bureau in Trenton, NJ, 

In time, Bob spent years working in politics in Washington including becoming chief of staff for Rep. James J. Florio (D), who later became governor of New Jersey.

He retired in 2016 after running a successful political media consulting  business “G-NET Strategic Communications” in the DC area. 

My guest is in awe of his mother and is adamant about all the good his mom taught him especially her advice about never giving up on his dreams. Neither Bob nor his mom attended college, yet she was insistent that he keep after his journalism career. "She burned it into my sole, that if I wanted to accomplish anything in life, I  couldn't quit, I had to go after it despite the odds."

Looking Back At S2E8 Her bosses wanted her to shut up and do her work, says Cate of her mother's bosses, but that was not who Helen was.  Helen grew up in South Carolina, one of three children raised by a farming family.

Her mother insisted she leave the farming life to her younger brothers and go to college. Within a few years, she was one of 5 women to graduate  from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Helen completed her teaching degree. Though she never taught in a classroom, she did teach her daughter that women are smart, they can work and raise children  at the same time.

Helen got a second shot at life later on  and said "there's nothing you can't do at 60 that you can at 40." She embraced a new career and was attentive and  fond of her grandson.

Because Helen struggled with being a perfectionist, she took motherhood very seriously, and felt its' confines. 

Once she recognized that her daughter was a strong and confident woman, she could relax and enjoy life. Cate says about her mom "she had a wonderful personality and great fashion sense and people were drawn to her."

Her mother insisted she leave the farming life to her younger brothers and go to college. Within a few years, she was one of 5 women to graduate  from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Helen completed her teaching degree. Though she never taught in a classroom, she did teach her daughter that women are smart, they can work and raise children  at the same time.

Helen got a second shot at life later on  and said "there's nothing you can't do at 60 that you can at 40." She embraced a new career and was attentive and  fond of her grandson.

Because Helen struggled with being a perfectionist, she took motherhood very seriously, and felt its' confines. 

Once she recognized that her daughter was a strong and confident woman, she could relax and enjoy life. Cate says about her mom "she had a wonderful personality and great fashion sense and people were drawn to her."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"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.

Others say they are determined to change who they are because of their past, and that new trajectory defines who they truly become.

 

Elizabeth Bennett says, “being a survivor of domestic violence, sexual abuse and bullying as a young person, has taught me that in order to succeed in life, I must be willing to do whatever it takes to heal and move forward. I have used my past as a vehicle of opportunity to flourish in the present and in the future."

 Her 35-year career in high schools as an educator, administrator, and principal and now as a student and parent coach, is helping families understand one another better, to become 'curiously engaged'  with one another with "Courageous Conversations," which happens to be the title of her latest book.  

We all know that teens have a lot going on in their bodies, minds and emotions and it's important for them to know that as parents, we're here for them. We truly are listening to them. 

Ms. Bennett is also thankful for her parents who handed down “a fiery attitude and a heart-centered desire to empower people and help them transform, so that they can live the life that they desire”! 

Her new book, Courageous Conversations, gives parents easy-to-implement strategies to create a powerful and loving relationship with their teen, without lectures, shame or guilt.

He found his passion for the radio business at the age of six, but wasn't able to fulfill that

dream till a little later in life.  

As you listen to the wonderful stories Steve shares,  you'll find out that he was raised by both his maternal grandmother and his mom.  "Grandmother was worthless until a crisis. Grandmother was my mother, my light. 'Mother', as he refers to his mom, was my 'dad'-the two women set up  those 'roles'," McCurdy shares.

You'll hear Steve repeat over and over again how magnificent his mother was -"a powerful, independent woman with a great, great mind, yet she wanted to be wild and crazy and she never really got to do that." Plus, Margie never went to college because any money the family  had went to Margie's brother's wants and needs.

Margie started working in a local bank  in Texas at 16 and because of her expertise, hard work and dedication over decades of running the Proof Department, she was able to apply for a  program through Southwest Institute Of Graduate Business Studies and SMU. Because she had never gotten and undergraduate degree, she was able to take an exam, passed the test with flying colors, got her undergraduate degree certificate based on her lifelong experience and the exam and became the first person to ever complete a Masters program at SMU without having actually attended college. There is more to this story  as it was taking place in the late 60's and the Civil Rights Movement. Steve's mother made a considerable effort to train the other female employees and not just overlook them because she knew they were intelligent and capable to do any job if trained properly.

There's so much more to Steve's story. Hope you enjoy this episode of SHLTMM.

Robert Crutchfield is the eldest of three children and  my guest shares that they really had their mother to thank for helping them understand the significance of sibling relationships -they generally loved one another, again thanks to his mother. 

On the other hand, Robert says, "I loved my mother, but my mother was scary." She worked for the Director of the FBI, J Edgar Hoover , during the Korean War. And she didn't hesitate to say what was truly on her mind. 

Robert loves that his mom was an "avid reader and she desperately wanted to be a writer." She was  a little jealous that Robert was getting paid to write. She attended business school, but never completed her degree.  Don't think that that was going to hold her back in any way. 

Marilyn was determined to stay home with the kids when they were small, even though it was a financial struggle.  She began teaching her daughter how to cook and then she was determined to teach her two sons, because "she'd be hell bent if any son of hers starved because he didn't know how  to turn the stove on, " Robert recalls fondly. 

Proud of both his parents, Robert was determined  to share that his parents were a pair/teammates. They worked together raising the kids and they supported one another always.

Robert attributes his cooking  prowess to his mother, but also his paternal grandfather. He's been fortunate to have generations of chefs in his lineage. "I learned most of my early knowledge of cooking and food from her,"Crutchfield offers. 

"It was intimidating to me," says Robert as he was learning and meeting professional chefs. Yet he found that his mother had taught him some of the same techniques, just not a fancy name. Robert admits to 'reinventing himself' many times over and each journey has played a significant role in his life and what he's achieved in his life.

Rob truly enjoys writing his food blog-tweaking recipes after trial and error. He believes that he wants to hold his bar very high. He believes in credibility and want to deliver accurate information and recipes.

It wasn't until she moved to DC that she met her future husband. Her father basically told "her that that she did not need to go to college because she was going to get married!" Well, Marilyn was determined to work as many jobs as possible and get out of MO. She was determined to NOT be a farmers wife, and not out of disrespect to her family, who many were farmers. She wanted more out of life and "didn't want a husband with dirt under his nails." Marilyn Louise, Robert Crutchfield's mother grew up in Missouri on a farm.

Kristi was so inspired by the work of Emily Post, that she founded "the Polite Company" where she enjoys helping people of all ages become aware of the impression they make on coworkers, friends and family. For Kristi, it's inspiring to see  her clients/students feel more confident once they have a few tools to help them in professional and personal settings.  Many of her students are first generation college attendees seeking to accomplish what's never been attainable in their family's history.

Emily Post wrote her very first book on etiquette in 1922 as a 5o year old divorced mother. Her guidelines incorporate the belief that "etiquette has nothing to do with your last name, it has nothing to do with where you're from, it has nothing to do with how much money you have , it has everything to do with how you treat other people.  And learning manners and etiquette costs $0.00."

They've released  the 100th Centennial version of Ms. Post's book on etiquette  with the inclusion of technology and social media.

Kristi shares many wonderful stories of her relationship with her mother and all that her mother has taught her throughout her life. 

And some advice Kristi gives is "being polite doesn’t mean you have to be a door mat!

Hope you enjoy the listen.

Now he's the founder of MasterTalk where Brenden refers to himself as "a public speaker, communicator and facilitator." Brenden is the first in his family's lineage to complete higher education. 

My guest currently lives in Montreal Canada where he purchased a home for he and his mother in order to eliminate two mortgages. Culturally, as the first born, he had inherent responsibilities, including being very protective of his mother. Unfortunately his father, who passed away in 2019, was affected by  alcoholism and made things challenging around the home.  Both parents worked hard as factory workers, but just couldn't make ends meet. Brenden, who says, he was always good with numbers, studied accounting and got great jobs out of college and was eventually able to pay off all outstanding debt.

Brenden admires and loves his mother tremendously. He says, "my mother has a very different life now than what she struggled through in the last ten years. Culturally, "you don't just walk away from your partner or family member who is struggling. You continue to support them and provide for them.  My #1 priority was making sure everyone was safe," says Brenden.

Sri Lanka, is an island country located in South-Central Asia, and Brenden shares stories of both his parents who grew up in Sri Lanka. His mother is the youngest of a large family and she loved to tend to the family garden.  She married at 30 years old and immigrated to Canada.  His mother taught her son many wonderful life lessons including  his story that he shares about the $10 bill he found on the ground. Vijee hoped that her son understood that " even if we don't have a lot, we have a lot more than other people do and always be generous and lead with that generosity."

After years of studying to be an accountant, then technology consultant, he was able to shift into doing what he really loved. He felt all of his steps in life where important. "That first step was absolutely necessary to get to the person I am today." Kumarasamy continues, " I got out of survival mode later in life and started to focus on the bigger picture of what I could do to serve the world"

Brenden's Youtube channel is full of wonderful videos with professional advice for improving ones public speaking skills. He is self taught and wants everyone to understand that it wasn't easy in the beginning. He practiced hundreds of times before he felt he was ready. He was very fearful of launching that first Youtube video. He talks about trying to reach out and help many with public speaking skills and says "that when you care about others and only want to add value, you’ll be able to overcome any fear/obstacle in the service of others."

He talks about trying to reach out and help many with public speaking skills and says "that when you care about others and only want to add value, you’ll be able to overcome any fear/obstacle in the service of others."

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

At 16, Natasha felt the need for some sort of spiritual connection in her life.  Neither her mother or father believed in traditional religious beliefs, so she started attending services in different temples and churches. But it wasn't until she met Rachelle, that my guest was encouraged to find her own calling. Rachelle did not  persuade Natasha to do anything specific in life, yet there was a mutual interest in caring for children who did not have families of their own.

Natasha was so taken with Rachelle's sincerity and concern. Rachelle was actually one of the very first adults to ask Natasha personal questions. "She gave me a lot of hope and comfort by just being there. And because she was there, I   always had hope and ideas of what would be next in life. Rachelle is very personal. She feels very deeply and when someone shares their story, she's ready to feel it, cry with them, laugh with them says Natasha.

Natasha is very happy to be living in a more remote area now with her family. She's cooking up a storm and you can find her recipes and tricks of the kitchen trade on her social media pages-links are below.  

I hope you enjoy this conversation. Natasha has such a warm demeanor that I felt as though I was sitting with her in her kitchen  in Hungary.

From World Traveler to a Home Cook

Welcome to Natasha’s Home! My husband, Krisztian and I currently live in Eastern Europe in Hungary. We recently welcomed a little baby girl into our family!

I was born in Ukraine, grew up in Russia, but have been all over the world in the last 7 years. I think I visited around 13 countries in my journey as a Christian missionary (what an adventure that was!). My husband and I first met at a local Hungarian orphanage where we were spending time with the kids as a part of a missionary team, and little did I know that this town I was “just passing by” was going to be my future home!

After getting married I started learning more about cooking and homemaking, and it is no less of a journey than I had before! As I discover new recipes, kitchen hacks, tips, and tricks that help me become a better home cook, I love to share them with you so that you can be inspired and learn a bunch yourself! I hope you join along for the journey!

She recalls very few memorable memories of her biological mother, Tatiana. Her mother was working and/or busy, says Natasha, so she hasn't played a huge role in my guest's life. But as a child, Natasha longed for that special mother/daughter bond. At 17, Natasha met Rachelle, an American volunteer, teaching English in St. Petersburg, Russia.

At a young age, Chantal's mom picked up that that her daughter's learning abilities seemed  off.  It was clear that Chantal's behavior at home didn't reflect correctly with her report cards.  Chantal struggled in school, in part due to her learning difficulties plus the social pressures from her piers and bullying. But again, it was Yvonne who continually encouraged her daughter to "not worry about it. You'll always run your own business."

Chantal wishes she had seen her mom's sensibility earlier on instead of putting more pressure on herself to tackle fields of study that were  too rigorous,  ie, sciences and graphic design. According to my guest,  "my mother taught  me how to manage and look out for my burnout."

One of the most important messages that Chantal wants to get across is " no one should ever be ashamed of the tools  or the accommodations  they need because of neurodiversity disabilities."

Now, starting her own business has lessened the pressure on Chantal. SOCOLO came about because of the difficulties she had when reading and focusing on words specifically on white paper or causing 'visual stress.' "50% of the people with Autism and 50% of the people with Dyslexia also have visual stress or Irlin Syndrome. So white paper doesn't quite work with our group. The whole idea  behind SOCOLO was to deal with the emotional side of Dyslexia." 

Chantal has a wonderful story to tell of the strength of her mother and how important it was that her mother never faulted her daughter for her challenges, yet lifter her up and encouraged her every step of the way.

Vivace is a very bright woman who received her undergraduate and graduate degree in Biology from Cornell University. She worked in the medical field for twelve years before becoming  a speaker and life coach.

My guest explains that "my mother was my BFF and she lives for her children." This was all terribly hard because Vivace always wanted her mother "to feel  valued and honored yet she was at the bottom of everyone's totem pole."

Unfortunately, the abuse toward she and her mother started when Vivace was very young and continued until both women left the family, leaving behind the two sons as they chose to remain with their father. Yet, Vivace recalls asking her mother on a regular basis  "can we leave today, can we leave today" but it was years before they left.  From a young age, Vivace would confront her father verbally about the abuse, but her bravery came with a price. 

With $100 in their pocket, both women left the horrific beatings behind and found shelter with family members who unfortunately knew of the abuse, but never came to Jaleh's rescue.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

]]> Tue, 31 Jan 2023 03:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (vivace maxvictor, jackie tantillo, should have listened to my mother podcast, SHLTMM Podcast) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/host-jackie-tantillo-a-mother-and-daughters-journey-from-darkness-to-light-with-guest-speaker-and-life-coach-vivace-maxvictor-RT0JlJij Before you proceed, I  want to warn you, that this episode does contain graphic content that some may find disturbing.

Vivace is a very bright woman who received her undergraduate and graduate degree in Biology from Cornell University. She worked in the medical field for twelve years before becoming  a speaker and life coach.

My guest explains that "my mother was my BFF and she lives for her children." This was all terribly hard because Vivace always wanted her mother "to feel  valued and honored yet she was at the bottom of everyone's totem pole."

Unfortunately, the abuse toward she and her mother started when Vivace was very young and continued until both women left the family, leaving behind the two sons as they chose to remain with their father. Yet, Vivace recalls asking her mother on a regular basis  "can we leave today, can we leave today" but it was years before they left.  From a young age, Vivace would confront her father verbally about the abuse, but her bravery came with a price. 

With $100 in their pocket, both women left the horrific beatings behind and found shelter with family members who unfortunately knew of the abuse, but never came to Jaleh's rescue.

Through many years of depression, pain, anger, resentment and a planned suicide,  Vivace began her healing process through therapy, research and seeking the truth. 

She uses her past experience as a tool to help her clients improve their self worth and confidence through compassion and understanding. Ultimately, the client has to realize that the possibilities are limitless.

And that's exactly what Andrea Ippolito has done. As I mention in my introduction, she has a very impressive background. Both mother and daughter are engineers and their lives/personalities are very much intertwined or "tangled" as Andrea says.

In this episode you'll hear stories of Mary working with female astronauts redesigning the first female space suit so it's anatomically correct for a woman. That's something significant that never crossed my mind until I heard these stories.

Andrea says that her mom is still an inspiration to her. "Mom raised us to stick up for ourselves" recalls Ippolito. Andrea says her mother was always there for her, she encouraged her to experience different things and situations. Mary says, "she taught me that we need more women innovators at the table designing the next generation of women's health products with their own lived experience whenever possible."

About Andrea:Andrea Ippolito currently serves as the CEO and Founder of SimpliFed. Prior to joining Cornell, Andrea served as the Director of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Innovators Network within the VA Center for Innovation and served as a Presidential Innovation Fellow based out of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy and General Services Administration. She was the Co-Founder of an innovative application that improves access to care called Smart Scheduling (acquired by athenahealth in 2016). She also previously served as the Co-Director of MIT Hacking Medicine, as an Innovation Specialist at the Brigham Innovation Hub and Product Innovation Manager at athenahealth. Ms. Ippolito completed her MS in Engineering & Management at MIT and engineering degrees at Cornell.

Perhaps because of Ping's past, she found it in her heart to stand up against society and family. Ping was there for her daughter at a number of crucial life changing events.

Today, Leslie is a mom and business owner.

Her philosophy incorporates current day reasonings as well as Chinese traditions to reprogram your relationship with food.  "It's rather a lifestyle and a kind of mindset and routine which can help you loose the weight effectively without being addicted to this weight loss game," suggests Chen.  

One of her suggestions for curbing further cravings for sugar is, "Teassert." She explains in the interview.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

One being her mother and the other, her maternal grandmother, Lucia, who was the more compassionate one.

As the oldest of three children, Kristina felt that her mom was hardest on her.  She shares wonderful stories of cooking delicious Italian food with her mom, everything from scratch  and loves having all the family recipes. Her mother was very talented and creative, very charismatic yet her mom didn't believe in herself, didn't have the same confidence that her daughter has.  "She was an amazing seamstress, made all their Communion dresses and gowns."  Unfortunately, Linda Marie "suffered from  a lot of anxieties and narcissism as well and it would affect her and make her really insecure," reflects my guest.

As an adult, Kristina has been in therapy and it's helped her to start her healing process.  This has been a difficult journey however, Kristina  has come to understand and appreciate that "her mom was doing the best with what she had.  She was working to  be the best version of herself every day."

Lucia also shares with us her beautifully crocheted -Curiously Created Creations-Bella and friends.  Lucia's mom always wanted her daughter to be a teacher. Now, Kristina has created these darling children's books and stuffed animals "to help children process their feelings and help them navigate through their range of emotions. "These books are love letters to my mom. I think it's important to acknowledge the trauma, it's important to see the dysfunciton, but the healing is equily as important because it's showing that we do have a choice. My mom's choice was to raise the best kids she could possibly raise."

Her main character of the series is Bella Lucia.  The mission of the series, explains Kristina, "is communication between parents and children. I like to  focus on that because when we're able to identify through our feelings and communicate with each other, we're able to acknowledge it and get down to the why."

I hope you enjoy our conversation.

When you hear the compelling stories about both  Jessica and her mother, you'll say, 'the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree.'   Both women have been working tirelessly for decades in order to educate victims and their family members,  as well as inform  society to be more compassionate and aware and to update the parole and probation system.

Resilience is one of the words that Jessica uses over and over again when describing her mother Maria who is originally from  Stockholm, Sweden.  Jessica also describes her mom as "a pioneer in her field." Very early on in the AIDS epidemic, Maria was involved with helping patients and their families maneuver the scary waters of a frightening disease.  While in graduate school, Maria brought her days old daughter Jessica with her to class.  Jessica went where ever her mother took her, to HIV/Aids conferences, seminars, etc. "She showed us"  says Jessica, when referring to her mother, "by her actions, not her words, on how to live life." Jessica was adamant about how her mom had a "show them, don't tell them" philosophy about life. In other words, Maria was an  example by her actions, not her words. Jessica reflects, "I never once saw my mom give up."

Again, the parallels between mother and daughter are striking, Maria working with HIV/AIDS patients and Jessica with people in prison. Again, those whose lives were turned upside down, found a smart, caring and devoted women to make a difference in these unfortunate individuals lives.

When Kim Kardashian West wanted tutoring in law once aware of wrongfully incarcerated first time offenders, she went to Jessica Jackson for help.  On November 29, 2019, USA Today wrote "Kim Kardashian West came on board with the campaign after she heard about Alice Marie Johnson, a grandmother who had served 21 years of a life sentence for her first-ever drug conviction, and was moved to help. Kardashian West was instrumental in convincing Trump to grant Johnson clemency. " 

That's just one of thousands of cases that Jackson has had overturned and continues to fight in order to get families back together under one roof.

Both of these women with all that they have accomplished and continue  to accomplish is living proof that if you set your mind to something, anything and everything is possible. As Maria said to her daughter "you can do anything, you can achieve anything, if you work hard enough." 

 

REFORM Alliance Mission Statement:

REFORM Alliance aims to transform probation and parole by changing laws, systems and culture to create real pathways to work and wellbeing.

A justice system that holds people accountable and redirects back to work and wellbeing leads to stronger families and safer communities. Instead of keeping people trapped in a revolving door from probation/parole to prison — which costs taxpayers billions of dollars — we’re working to move people from the justice system into stability.

 History

REFORM’s story starts with the unjust re-imprisonment of recording artist Meek Mill. The shocking two-to-four year sentence he received for popping a wheelie spurred the international #FreeMeek movement, which led to release on bail and eventually his freedom.

Although Meek had the resources and public platform to fight his case, his case is only one of millions. The vast majority of people trapped in the system don’t get their stories told, or have the resources to fight back. On January 23, 2019, a world-class group of philanthropists and activists came together to launch the REFORM Alliance to change this

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

Gregg's podcast, "The Compulsive Storyteller" which can be found where ever you listen to podcast, is Gregg continuing the art of telling stories handed down from past generations. Worth a listen for sure. (Link is below.)

When Gregg was a little boy the family had moved to the Albany, New York area. Betty owned a plane, so who better to fly with his mom on a regular basis. He loved seeing the landscape from way up in the sky. It was quite an experience for a little boy. They'd go out to lunch and fly from one location to another. Gregg really cherishes his memories of his mom.

Gregg's parents were apparently too similar personalities to make a good match according to Gregg. When Betty was checked out of  the WASP at the end of WWII, she received a job offer as the first ever female flight controller at LaGuardia Airport. Her husband sent her a telegraph ordering her to go back to buffalo and wait for him and not to take the job.

Gregg shares a few very telling stories about his mother's experience in the military. Unfortunately a strong, talented, fearless  women had a  tough time in a male dominated industry such as the military. Gregg often says, "she was a woman ahead of her time." Betty flew an AT-6 which was considered the best fighter training aircraft during WWII, P38 Fighter Bomber and more.

Over the 32 years that Gregg knew his mother, he laments  "she never once said 'I'm sorry,' nor did she say so to my sisters or my father. That was a real disability she had.  She was very proud."  Unfortunately, Gregg's maternal  grandmother held onto grudges similar to his mother. Anyone who went against his grandmother, they also were crossed off the list forever.

Being in the military was not always easy, the most challenging  was when confronted by misogynistic men. That happened on a regular basis. Unfortunately, the harassment continued after the military while working in the real estate business.

"A woman who was strong and decisive and stood up for herself was basically a difficult woman," Gregg explains out of frustration.

Unfortunately, Betty LeFevre, even with all her accomplishments,  was more unhappy than anyone  could have understood. 

* About Gregg In His Words

I'm a public artist with permanent commissions around the world, a passion for the art world, entrepreneurship, multiculturalism, & stories.

I have completed over 200 permanently installed public art projects all over the world, many in the USA and a dozen in Manhattan. Library Walk, at Fifth and 41st, is the latest work of public art in NYC. Many of my projects are unique in that they consist of a series of bronze panels with text and imagery that are set in sidewalks, parks and plazas. Library Walk is two blocks long, and it's 96 bronze panels lead the viewer toward the front door of NY's central Schwarzman Library. 

My public art is all about exploring the history and character of the places where it is set. I have a particular interest in telling the lost and forgotten stories from African American history, women's history, Hispanic history, natural history and those of other minority cultures.

I have also turned many my experiences in and around the world of art into a podcast of short personal stories that proves truth can be stranger than fiction. The Compulsive Storytelleris my podcast of intriguing comic, tragic and weird stories, many of which involve getting myself into and out of trouble. It is available on Apple, Spotify and most other platforms. 

Reviews of my public artworks can be found in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Boston Globe, the Washington Post, the Chicago Tribune, and many other newspapers, magazines and online publications.

However, both her parents were English and had the same desire of "going out to India, spreading the Gospel message and serving the poor," explains my guest.

Living in Vienna as a young girl, Kathryn remembers her parents taking in refugees who were seeking political asylum and it was normal to have refugees sleeping on their floor regularly. These memories had a profound effect on Kathryn and she was certain that this is how her interests in helping the less fortunate  came to be. 

Kathryn shares that her mother was not warm and fuzzy but she was from the generation of tough and strong women. Kathryn always felt very loved. Ruby was a teacher and taught her daughter and other children from the Embassy. Ruby was determined that Kathryn would not be spoiled. Kathryn was soon sent to boarding school because her parents were working and traveling regularly.

"A little pencil in God's hand" is how Mother Teresa would refer to herself. She never wanted credit  or accolades for her work. "She could be a tough cookie," Spink reflects however, "she was difficult to deal with sometimes, because God was so definitely on her side and that could make things tough. Mother Teresa was so determined, nothing could get in her way."

"Poverty saddened Mother Teresa the most according to Kathryn,  "I don't think it angered her not in relation to God. Waste most likely angered her the most but never with God."

Mother Teresa was always seeing the presence of God in the poor and it helped her persevere.  "Tolerance was deeply ingrained in Mother Theresa" explains Ms. Spink. "Mother Teresa believed that God was at work in every soul, so it wasn't up to her to try and convince others of the 'correct/best religion."

My guest remarks "Mother Teresa used to say "come to Calcutta and I'll put you to work".  This is what this demure but mighty  woman believed with her whole body, mind and spirit.

Kathryn even shared stories of the similarities between Mother Teresa, whose birth name was Agnes, and her mother Drana. "The family that prays together, stays together" was one of Drana's favorite expressions according to Spink. Caring for the sick was a common thread for the two woman. 

"It's not always about the physical suffering, but the whole process of being abandoned by people" was one of the toughest things for Mother Teresa to comes to terms with, comments Spink.

Mother Teresa founded the order, "The Missionaries of Charities." She wanted to give shelter to  abandoned babies and to help the poorest of the poor. In 1979 she received the Nobel Peace Prize and after her death was canonized as Saint Teresa.

 I could have listened for hours to my guest share her stories of all of these selfless women.

Mother Teresa was known as 'Mother' because when a nun/sister is appointed to a superior position within  the church, they are known as 'Mother.'

INFORMATION:

Kathryn Spink is the author of several books on the work of Mother Teresa and her coworkers, as well as other inspiring contemporary figures, including Brother Roger of Taize, Beede Griffiths, Dominique LaPierre, Prince Charles’ and Lady Diana Spencer and more.  My guest is also the chronicler of the “South African Women's Human Rights Organization.”

In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

However, both her parents were English and had the same desire of "going out to India, spreading the Gospel message and serving the poor," explains my guest.

Living in Vienna as a young girl, Kathryn remembers her parents taking in refugees who were seeking political asylum and it was normal to have refugees sleeping on their floor regularly. These memories had a profound effect on Kathryn and she was certain that this is how her interests in helping the less fortunate  came to be. 

Kathryn shares that her mother was not warm and fuzzy but she was from the generation of tough and strong women. Kathryn always felt very loved. Ruby was a teacher and taught her daughter and other children from the Embassy. Ruby was determined that Kathryn would not be spoiled. Kathryn was soon sent to boarding school because her parents were working and traveling regularly.

"A little pencil in God's hand" is how Mother Teresa would refer to herself. She never wanted credit  or accolades for her work. "She could be a tough cookie," Spink reflects however, "she was difficult to deal with sometimes, because God was so definitely on her side and that could make things tough. Mother Teresa was so determined, nothing could get in her way."

"Poverty saddened Mother Teresa the most according to Kathryn,  "I don't think it angered her not in relation to God. Waste most likely angered her the most but never with God."

Mother Teresa was always seeing the presence of God in the poor and it helped her persevere.  "Tolerance was deeply ingrained in Mother Theresa" explains Ms. Spink. "Mother Teresa believed that God was at work in every soul, so it wasn't up to her to try and convince others of the 'correct/best religion."

My guest remarks "Mother Teresa used to say "come to Calcutta and I'll put you to work".  This is what this demure but mighty  woman believed with her whole body, mind and spirit.

Kathryn even shared stories of the similarities between Mother Teresa, whose birth name was Agnes, and her mother Drana. "The family that prays together, stays together" was one of Drana's favorite expressions according to Spink. Caring for the sick was a common thread for the two woman. 

"It's not always about the physical suffering, but the whole process of being abandoned by people" was one of the toughest things for Mother Teresa to comes to terms with, comments Spink.

Mother Teresa founded the order, "The Missionaries of Charities." She wanted to give shelter to  abandoned babies and to help the poorest of the poor. In 1979 she received the Nobel Peace Prize and after her death was canonized as Saint Teresa.

 I could have listened for hours to my guest share her stories of all of these selfless women.

Mother Teresa was known as 'Mother' because when a nun/sister is appointed to a superior position within  the church, they are known as 'Mother.'

INFORMATION:

Kathryn Spink is the author of several books on the work of Mother Teresa and her coworkers, as well as other inspiring contemporary figures, including Brother Roger of Taize, Beede Griffiths, Dominique LaPierre, Prince Charles’ and Lady Diana Spencer and more.  My guest is also the chronicler of the “South African Women's Human Rights Organization.”

She's a big fan of reading and loves Star Wars.

As an accomplished singer, she received her Masters in Opera Performance. In addition to the entire family being singers and musicians, archery became a big part of their lives as well.  When Karla, Christen's mother, was in high school she became the California State Champion Archer and the family still enjoys the sport today. 

Having a mom that worked wasn't that unusual for Christen. Her mom had been a paralegal for years after completing her associates degree.  As the three children were growing up, Karla was  leading worship at the local church.  They spent a lot of time at the church. But my guest says she enjoyed it because they were always singing.

Ms. Horne fondly remembers her mom embracing whatever fun activities the kids would be involved in, including  going to water parks and going down the water slides together, playing board games and spending quality time involved with the family. Years ago, Christen was actively involved in her community theatre programs.  She fondly retells the story of  the production of  "Fiddler On The Roof," when her mom and aunt  were  "volun-told' that they  had to play village fathers.  There were no other boys/male actors to play the part.  They still laugh about it today.

Christen considered her mother as being firm yet compassionate when it came to disciplining the three kids.  Homework definitely took the priority especially over video games. Homework wasn't done, no one got  to play. Christen says  "mom was always really good about helping us find the balance in things. Making sure we had time to play  and making sure we got our homework done."  

It wasn't until Christen started to realize  that she often hid her emotions, that she started to recall other instances from her childhood that were clearly  unhappy. She had suffered from depression at a young age that was left undiagnosed. She felt that her mother was embarrassed when Christen showed her true emotions. Horne shared with me that "through my mental health journey, I've gotten more comfortable being more myself around my mom."  Often feeling "this is my fault," Christen often blamed herself and felt that if her mother rejected her, it would be devastating.  It's scary to be a young child and not understand complicated emotional situation.

Working with coaches on a regular basis has helped Christen tremendously. "You pick one hurt, then move on to another," reflects Horne. Through working with her coaches she says her relationship with her mom is so much better and she's very grateful for all the support.

Christen is now working on her fantasy book which features her main character 'Alkara' who's named after mother and who also is an archer. Here is the link.  https://worldofurda.com/

Because her parents had divorced wen Pat was a little girl, Pat spent the school year with her mother on the coast of Washington and summers with her father in the eastern part of the state. Pat learned independence starting at the early age of five years old as her parents  put her on a train by herself, back and forth across the state.  This part of Shannon's journey begins with her mom's Sock Monkey and it's opened up a world of learning and inspiration.

Incase you're not familiar with what a sock monkey is, it's a  toy for young and old.  Stuffed Sock Monkeys were very popular in the 1930 and 40's, especially during The Great Depression to help uplift the spirits of children and adults.

After Shannon's mother died, she came across a Stuffed Sock Monkey in her mother's possessions. She took it home with her and it's created a life of its own, a significance that Shannon is still surprised by today.

In regard to her mother Shannon says "she was a teacher by nature and a teacher by trade. In fact, Pat was a  6th grade teacher for a while in addition to a Special Education teacher. Everything was a teaching /learning experience."  Shannon, her twin sister, Cheryl, and their mother had a very close relationship. All three women have intuitive capabilities and Pat allowed Shannon to make her own mistakes.  Shannon  in her late 20's,  started to develop her own psychic abilities. And as a twin, Shannon and her sister Cheryl, have psychic abilities that they work on together from near and afar. 

 Shannon shares stories of all the music in their home growing up. "Mom, she was brilliant. She could play any instrument by ear you gave her. Her main instrument in our home was the piano."

With an infectious laugh that Shannon most likely inherited from her mom,  my guest fills us in on how funny  her mother was. She just lit up the whole family with her witty sense of humor.

Shannon Grissom is an award winning artist, author and illustrator of the book "Monkey Made of Sockies" and most recently the creator of 'Sock Monkey Oracle Cards."  

- Each card is a unique painting of a sock monkey which correlates to a specific Oracle Card.

What are Oracle cards? Shannon Grissom will explain all of this and share more stories of her mom  Pat.

Rich is a very warm and caring son. Looking back, Rich would like to have asked his mom "what she was so worried about all the time."

Looking back, my guest also has regrets for his mom's lack of happiness and wellbeing. As a teen he was more concerned with himself than the welfare of his mom. In hindsight,  he wishes she had taken better care of herself- had more friends, etc.

As a young girl, Clare's mother, Rich's maternal grandmother, put a lot of pressure on Clare to practice her music. Clare was a phenomenal concert pianist.  She studied piano from a young age and within a few years she suddenly quit playing the piano, defiant to her mother's constant nagging.

Rich's mom was overprotected and as he says "kind of spoiled." Interestingly enough, Clare was overprotected by her own mother and then did something similar to her only son. Rich refers to it as a "constant hovering."  As a result, Rich created his own  internal world  or a world of imagination which he found at the library and through books.   

A college professor recognized that Rich  showed some true talent in his poetry and encouraged him to pursue it. Today, Rich is a poet and has almost one hundred poems published in the Monmouth Review (Monmouth University) and two in the International Journal of Poetry Therapy and several in other literary publications.

Twenty years since his mom's death, he looks back fondly on his memories of his mom . His memories don't rattle him as much now. He's embracing the whole picture of her life and not just the last five years that she endured Alzheimer's.

We create patterns in the sky, trying to understand what God might mean,

Carlyn is a first generation Mexican American who was raised in California. It wasn't until she took a DNA test in her 50's, just to see what her more specific lineage was, that she found out some shocking news. There was a discrepancy in one of the results that caught Carlyn's eye, but being busy, she let it go. She had noticed that all of her siblings seemed to be very quiet and distant once she started asking questions.

Had she spent more time on fully reading the results, she would have seen that there was a woman's name listed as a potential relative. "Ancestry DNA doesn't lie" is what Carlyn was told by this stranger's husband.

Carlyn's mother and father made a life changing decision based on love and compassion . They didn't hesitate or dwell on the possible difficult road ahead. They did what they felt was the right thing to do.

a sister and two brothers that live nearby plus 2 other siblings in  Mexico  that were a lot older.

As teens, Carlyn's older siblings suddenly had an adopted baby sister and were told by their parents, not to tell anyone, including their baby sister that she was adopted for fear of someone trying to take her away.  You will never tell her she's adopted because if you do, there are  people out there that may try and hurt her. " Children born out of wedlock where not looked at fondly and Carlyn's parents didn't want that stigma to follow her.

When I asked my guest how she's been handling all this upheaval, she says "it's a paradox. Life works in mysterious ways and it gives you the information that you need at exactly at the right time. The first year was really  hard and this is tough stuff."  Her parents  were both strong people and they raised their children to be tough. "It's hard to have the rug pulled out from under you and to loose your identity in the snap of the fingers."

I guess you never know what you'll find in your results  when you do a DNA test. It especially is difficult when you get conflicting results as an adult vs a baby or child. Carlyn mentioned LDA or Late Discovery Adoptees. I've attached the link if you'd like further information.        https://www.latediscoveryadoptees.com/

It's been a journey for Carlyn since she got this startling news of being adopted. In the subsequent years, she's done a lot of soul searching and research. She's interviewed many people and family members, found her biological mother and adopted her dog, Grace.

November  2022, Carlyn released her most recent book "Junkyard Girl: a Memoir of Ancestry, Family Secrets and Second Chances."  Mary was known for being  very over protective of her daughter and it in fact it caused a lot of contention between the two ladies. She loved her daughter and felt that because she was adopted, she needed to keep an eye on her for her safety.

The only regret that Carlyn really has is that her siblings didn't tell her the truth before her parents passed away. Carlyn's older sister thought she was protecting her adopted sibling, just as Carlyn's mother, Mary, thought being over protective would serve her well.

Carlyn's Books:

"Dog As My Doctor, Cat As My Nurse"

"Paws For The Good Stuff-A dog lover's journal"

"Paws For The Good Stuff-A cat lover's journal"

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

]]> Tue, 8 Nov 2022 05:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (carlyn montes de oca, shltmm podcast, jackie tantillo, should have listened to my mother podcast) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/host-jackie-tantillo-the-secrets-that-we-keep-with-guest-author-and-animal-human-health-expert-carlyn-montes-de-oca-I7VWehjU Montes De Oca translated from Spanish means "mountains of Oca or bird similar to a goose" -from an area in the Basque region of Spain in the north central mountains, and that is where Carlyn's family originally emigrated from.

Carlyn is a first generation Mexican American who was raised in California. It wasn't until she took a DNA test in her 50's, just to see what her more specific lineage was, that she found out some shocking news. There was a discrepancy in one of the results that caught Carlyn's eye, but being busy, she let it go. She had noticed that all of her siblings seemed to be very quiet and distant once she started asking questions.

Had she spent more time on fully reading the results, she would have seen that there was a woman's name listed as a potential relative. "Ancestry DNA doesn't lie" is what Carlyn was told by this stranger's husband.

Carlyn's mother and father made a life changing decision based on love and compassion . They didn't hesitate or dwell on the possible difficult road ahead. They did what they felt was the right thing to do.

a sister and two brothers that live nearby plus 2 other siblings in  Mexico  that were a lot older.

As teens, Carlyn's older siblings suddenly had an adopted baby sister and were told by their parents, not to tell anyone, including their baby sister that she was adopted for fear of someone trying to take her away.  You will never tell her she's adopted because if you do, there are  people out there that may try and hurt her. " Children born out of wedlock where not looked at fondly and Carlyn's parents didn't want that stigma to follow her.

When I asked my guest how she's been handling all this upheaval, she says "it's a paradox. Life works in mysterious ways and it gives you the information that you need at exactly at the right time. The first year was really  hard and this is tough stuff."  Her parents  were both strong people and they raised their children to be tough. "It's hard to have the rug pulled out from under you and to loose your identity in the snap of the fingers."

I guess you never know what you'll find in your results  when you do a DNA test. It especially is difficult when you get conflicting results as an adult vs a baby or child. Carlyn mentioned LDA or Late Discovery Adoptees. I've attached the link if you'd like further information.        https://www.latediscoveryadoptees.com/

It's been a journey for Carlyn since she got this startling news of being adopted. In the subsequent years, she's done a lot of soul searching and research. She's interviewed many people and family members, found her biological mother and adopted her dog, Grace.

November  2022, Carlyn released her most recent book "Junkyard Girl: a Memoir of Ancestry, Family Secrets and Second Chances."  Mary was known for being  very over protective of her daughter and it in fact it caused a lot of contention between the two ladies. She loved her daughter and felt that because she was adopted, she needed to keep an eye on her for her safety.

The only regret that Carlyn really has is that her siblings didn't tell her the truth before her parents passed away. Carlyn's older sister thought she was protecting her adopted sibling, just as Carlyn's mother, Mary, thought being over protective would serve her well.

Carlyn's Books:

"Dog As My Doctor, Cat As My Nurse"

"Paws For The Good Stuff-A dog lover's journal"

"Paws For The Good Stuff-A cat lover's journal"

"If people had the right tools, they could be resilient and survive anything" says Robinson.

Jonathan shares  stories of when he was on the Oprah Winfrey show in the 1990's.  My guest often reflex back to the significance of his tough years as an adolescent and how crucial those years were to his healing transformation. But he credits Oprah for her intuition and her ability to overcome the horrors of her childhood where "she was gang rapped  multiply time by the age of fourteen and had a still born child by 15. " She was able to maintain such a good focus, while being so famous is that the roots go  deep, that she really had to find something within herself, that helped guide her for the rest of her life," shares Jonathan.  

Jonathan has a very funny story that he shares about his mother and how she eventually came around to appreciating his quest for inner peace and his passion for meditation. Jonathan says he got his curiosity for learning from his mother.  And he cherishes his memories of his mom teaching him how to read at three or four years old.

Jonathan's podcast is called "Awareness Explorers"  https://www.awarenessexplorers.com/ where you can find many 10 minute best guided meditations from the Dali Lama and more respected healers. Go to the 'meditation' page.

His first book "The Experience Of God" and now with the release of his fourteenth book, "The Enlightenment Project," Jonathan's advice is to "try anything and everything and see what you like and what brings you great peace, then use it. Another great piece of advise is  "what you resist persists," be in the moment and relax. Embrace the moment that you're in and embrace that peace."

"Humility was a key ingredient to growth and if I ever did not feel that way or grateful for all the help I 'd been  given, then I knew I was going off track," is one more parting message from Jonathan.

At that point, Samara moved to Northwest North Carolina.

At a young age, Samara envisioned her life quite differently, especially in the kitchen. This is where the story begins....

"Marilyn didn't talk about her childhood very much because she doesn't have much that's positive to share, continues Samara. "When she was being raised, she was the product of what would be considered an illegitimate relationship. She was treated very much like the black sheep and the role that they found for her in the family was basically as  something of a servant. She was always cooking and cleaning up after everybody. And over the years, she says she started making food for the family when she was seven. Over the years, she developed her kraft and honed her techniques and  developed an actual love of her process."

My guest says that her mother was a rebellious teenager in the early 1940's. Marilyn's mother, Samara's grandmother, did not have a true  presence in her daughter's life.

"To say that she was emotionally unavailable is pretty accurate," reflects Samara about her mom.  "Why are you crying, it's not going to bring them back" is what Marilyn would say to her daughter if she was sad and crying about loosing someone."

Samara was drawn to her mom's passion of cooking. At the drop of a hat there'd be anywhere from 10 or more guests for dinner. Unfortunately, Samara would serve as the dish washer and cleaner and not an assistant to the chef. 

Samara remembers distinctly her mom prepping food for the holidays. "Her Passover Seders, were the meals that stand out to this day. It was because they were never less than an elaborate affair. She'd start cooking days in advance to make the chopped liver and stick it in the fridge and make the Gefilte fish  from scratch, you know,  it was an ordeal, every year." 

Today, the relationship is strained between mother and daughter.  Marilyn was a stay at home mom and  critically ill throughout Marilyn's life.  Mom has been bedridden for five years. Both parents are medical professionals but as Marilyn says, "they both hold their cards very close."

Samara loves her mom. She says "my mom would give you the shirt off her back, she's was always very generous and a bit of a philanthropist." Despite their differences, Samara truly cares about her mom.

Samara's mother is very generous and giving and really a philanthropist with hopes and desires to help others succeed. Despite their differences and challenges in their relationship, Samara truly loves her mother.

Samara's current business -"Brew Naturals."  It's all about Elderberries and introducing the local community and retail  and online sales to the variety of snacks, honey, beer, treats, etc that she's created. Plus she loves collaborating with local businesses including breweries to a chocolatier, local creamery, etc. Hearing Samara talk about her Elderberry Apple Butter just makes my mouth water.

In Samara's words:

"I am a maker of gourmet elderberry products based in WNC. While nearly everyone familiar with elderberry comes to it by way of health and wellness, I'm endeavoring to change the conversation by highlighting its culinary applications. In this pursuit I have developed recipes using my elderberry syrup and had a number of collaborations with regional businesses from cafes/restaurants, creameries/chocolatiers, and even bars/breweries."

Samara remembers distinctly her mom prepping food for the holidays. "Her Passover Seders, were the meals that stand out to this day. It was because they were never less than an elaborate affair. She'd start cooking days in advance to make the chopped liver and stick it in the fridge and make the Gefilte fish  from scratch, you know,  it was an ordeal, every year." 

Today, the relationship is strained between mother and daughter.  Marilyn was a stay at home mom and  critically ill throughout Marilyn's life.  Mom has been bedridden for five years. Both parents are medical professionals but as Marilyn says, "they both hold their cards very close."

Samara loves her mom. She says "my mom would give you the shirt off her back, she's was always very generous and a bit of a philanthropist." Despite their differences, Samara truly cares about her mom.

Samara's mother is very generous and giving and really a philanthropist with hopes and desires to help others succeed. Despite their differences and challenges in their relationship, Samara truly loves her mother.

Samara's current business -"Brew Naturals."  It's all about Elderberries and introducing the local community and retail  and online sales to the variety of snacks, honey, beer, treats, etc that she's created. Plus she loves collaborating with local businesses including breweries to a chocolatier, local creamery, etc. Hearing Samara talk about her Elderberry Apple Butter just makes my mouth water.

In Samara's words:

"I am a maker of gourmet elderberry products based in WNC. While nearly everyone familiar with elderberry comes to it by way of health and wellness, I'm endeavoring to change the conversation by highlighting its culinary applications. In this pursuit I have developed recipes using my elderberry syrup and had a number of collaborations with regional businesses from cafes/restaurants, creameries/chocolatiers, and even bars/breweries."

At this point in her life she wanted to concentrate on what made her happy -interior design. For over 30 years, she'd been designing and decorating on the side and now she's created the "Let's Decorate App" to help anyone and everyone have an easier time at what can be an overwhelming task-fixing up their own home.  Lynda will help you every step of the way.

Lynda said that her story was complicated and in fact it truly is. I'll do my best in filling in the details.  

Lynda's parents were in their teens when they met and realized that Carolyn, Lynda's biological mother, was pregnant. They married, then shortly before the baby was born, her father was sent to Vietnam. 

Subsequently, once dad was oversees, Carolyn was considered an unfit mother and lost custody of her two year old daughter.  At that point, Lynda's grandmother was granted custody.  Within a year Lynda was kidnapped from her grandmother's home by her mom and brought her daughter to Louisiana.  One night, Lynda was left under the care of an underage babysitter while her mother went to work. Unfortunately, Lynda had a terrible fever and the babysitter and her family brought her to the hospital. The doctors told them that Lynda had 103 fever and Rubella. A missing child report was filed and they brought Lynda back to her grandmother's care.  

Lynda's father was summoned back to the US from Vietnam in order to handle the divorce and make sure his daughter was  safe and sound and then sent  back to fight in the war.  Two years passed and he eventually married Lynda's 'step mother'. The couple was married for 40 years. Lynda prefers to not give a name to her step mother and I'm sure you'll understand as you hear more of the story.   

Lynda knows now that her step mother was extremely jealous of her.  Lynda also knows that her step-mother came from a very dysfunctional family and had a very abusive childhood.  "She was a constant source of real torment for me. All of my friends called me Cinderella" explains Lynda. I was her slave around the house. I was constantly told I was ugly and fat and I was never going to have a man take care of me" shares Lynda. This abuse started when Lynda was seven years old and lasted until she moved out at 18. Step-mom would lie to Lynda's father about things she never did in order to keep Lynda on restriction and not be able to leave the house.  "She kept me under thumb and she made sure that my dad was always mad at me for something," reflects my guest.

For the most part, Lynda says "she was a good kid, though she did get caught sneaking out of the house one time but six weeks on restriction for not folding the clothes, was a bit much." My guest says she was just a good kid, a wall flower."  Lynda graduated hight school at seventeen, "but her dad wouldn't let her go away to college. My step mom was in my dad's ear, she didn't want me to leave the house."

At 18, finally Lynda was able to move out of the house and got a job and was never going to go back to that house again. Lynda wanted to go to college whether she paid for it herself or not. She paid for college herself and she was never going to have to depend on them for anything. Lynda was going to prove to her step mother that "she did not need a man to take care of her!"

Carolyn, Lynda's biological mom eventually  wanted to spend more time visiting her daughter. It wasn't until my guest was eighteen years old that she was able to go out with her mother alone.  At this point, Lynda had her mother on a pedestal. Lynda had envisioned her mom as 'a dream.' Anyone would be better than her step mother. Well, it turns out Carolyn had gotten remarried, but had  gotten pregnant just prior to  marrying her future second husband  and never told the truth about who's baby she was carrying.

Lynda reflects on  the incredible take away of this story "it's made me who I am- good, bad or indifferent. I think that we make choices in life. I could have spent  the rest of my life feeling that anger that my mom had let me be raised by this wicked step mother." In my mind, when I grew up that's what all my friends called her." We make a decision, we can say, ok, i'm going to let this be the excuse for why I 'm behaving the way, ... but because my step mom was like that I chose to take a different approach with my step children and we are very close, I am very close with my stepchildren and they've been my step children since they were eight years old."

Lynda chose forgiveness over anger after the birth of her second child. She realized that holding onto the anger and resentment toward her biological mother would only hurt her. She didn't want to continue this negative  tradition. Plus her children would benefit from having a grandmother in their life. Lynda is the first to admit that "her mother was a far better grandmother than a mother."

Lynda proudly explains "my grandmother, Margaret,  was the one  I got my design eye from." As young as seven years old, Lynda knew  that she wanted to be an Interior Designer, especially after years of dusting and rearranging everything in her step mother's house every week. One of Lynda's favorite things to do was rearrange and decorate her room as a young girl. It brought her so much joy. In time,  Lynda  began sewing and became a seamstress, making beautiful curtains and pillows and was hoping to work in this field one day.

Lynda can help you from your home on her new App - the "Let's Decorate App."  Everything from choosing paint colors to artwork, rugs, furniture and it's based on a variety of different rate packages based how many consultations you think you'd like, etc. You can ask Lynda  questions, send her room dimension, etc. It's all within the App so you'll have everything there as a reference.

Both of the sisters are former nurses and their background and life experiences are varied and complex.

Just to set up the relationships-Jane is two minutes older than he twin Joan. For most of their lives, they've always  been referred to as  as 'Jane and Joan', so now they like to refer to themselves as Joan and Jane.  Lori, their older sister by three years, is considered the twins 'second mama.'  

My guests explain why they believe their mother was not overwhelmingly affectionate and loving.  They believe it began when  their  maternal grandmother abandoned all of  her five children, including the twin's mom, Evelyn. However, Evelyn's father insisted on keeping all of his children and raising them himself.  At that point in  time the twins mom's life changed  drastically.   Evelyn and her twin sister, Rita,  had to go work and take care of injured soldiers and the local elderly and live at a nearby facility. It was not a pleasant environment to say the least.

Joan and Jane's  parents met while roller skating and it was love at first sight. Evelyn worked at the local elementary school in the cafeteria for years. She wasn't necessarily a good cook but every night there was a full meal on the table.  From an early age the family was very close. Dinner, conversations, fresh cut fruit every night. "Our mom was a doll" always dressed up and presentable.

Joan explains "I think she sacrificed a lot of herself so we could have more. I couldn't even imagine somebody better than she was."

Jane on the other hand has a different perspective. " As the 'other' twin, I was born with a glass half empty and I was a depressed child.  I understand now that a mother glows when a child glows. I grew up with a big chip on my shoulder that my mother preferred Joan. Recently I came to the conclusion that when I got my depression treated, and I was bright and airy, I got the look, the smile from my mother and I'm so grateful.  The fact that she didn't leave us was good enough and that's all you need is a good enough mother." Because of miscommunication they lost many years of a loving relationship.

Fortunately Jane and her mom both admitted the miscommunication before Evelyn passed in saying to each another "Oh I'm sorry I thought you didn't like me" and vice a versa. Jane insists that "when you change your perception in life and view things a little bit differently, you'd be amazed at the lovely memories you could have."  All Jane can remember now is the good.

My guest's mom said "being an identical twin forces you to be comfortable being seen through a  microscope. 

Joan and Jane are therapists for anyone and everyone, not just twins.  Between the  two women, they've had some terrifying life experiences including PTSD, a  mugging, sexual assault, near airplane crash and more. They believe  that they experienced early childhood trauma beginning in the 1960's, when they spent 30 days in separate incubators  before they allowed mom and dad to touch the girls.  It wasn't till they got home after one month that they experienced physical and emotional touch. The twins feel that this trauma helps them with working with their clients suffering from similar experiences.

You can hear endless stories of the twins sharing symbiotic experiences,  emotionally and physically. And yes, they both have criminal records so don't be surprised if their arrest records  show up when you google them.

]]> Tue, 11 Oct 2022 02:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (Therapy Twins, should have listened to my mother podcast, jackie tantillo, shltmm podcast, joan and jane therapy twins, should have listened to my mother) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/tragic-misunderstandings-with-guests-therapy-twins-joan-and-jane-tu7b_FKa Therapy Twins Joan and Jane were raised in Connecticut. Both of the sisters are former nurses and their background and life experiences are varied and complex.

Just to set up the relationships-Jane is two minutes older than he twin Joan. For most of their lives, they've always  been referred to as  as 'Jane and Joan', so now they like to refer to themselves as Joan and Jane.  Lori, their older sister by three years, is considered the twins 'second mama.'  

My guests explain why they believe their mother was not overwhelmingly affectionate and loving.  They believe it began when  their  maternal grandmother abandoned all of  her five children, including the twin's mom, Evelyn. However, Evelyn's father insisted on keeping all of his children and raising them himself.  At that point in  time the twins mom's life changed  drastically.   Evelyn and her twin sister, Rita,  had to go work and take care of injured soldiers and the local elderly and live at a nearby facility. It was not a pleasant environment to say the least.

Joan and Jane's  parents met while roller skating and it was love at first sight. Evelyn worked at the local elementary school in the cafeteria for years. She wasn't necessarily a good cook but every night there was a full meal on the table.  From an early age the family was very close. Dinner, conversations, fresh cut fruit every night. "Our mom was a doll" always dressed up and presentable.

Joan explains "I think she sacrificed a lot of herself so we could have more. I couldn't even imagine somebody better than she was."

Jane on the other hand has a different perspective. " As the 'other' twin, I was born with a glass half empty and I was a depressed child.  I understand now that a mother glows when a child glows. I grew up with a big chip on my shoulder that my mother preferred Joan. Recently I came to the conclusion that when I got my depression treated, and I was bright and airy, I got the look, the smile from my mother and I'm so grateful.  The fact that she didn't leave us was good enough and that's all you need is a good enough mother." Because of miscommunication they lost many years of a loving relationship.

Fortunately Jane and her mom both admitted the miscommunication before Evelyn passed in saying to each another "Oh I'm sorry I thought you didn't like me" and vice a versa. Jane insists that "when you change your perception in life and view things a little bit differently, you'd be amazed at the lovely memories you could have."  All Jane can remember now is the good.

My guest's mom said "being an identical twin forces you to be comfortable being seen through a  microscope. 

Joan and Jane are therapists for anyone and everyone, not just twins.  Between the  two women, they've had some terrifying life experiences including PTSD, a  mugging, sexual assault, near airplane crash and more. They believe  that they experienced early childhood trauma beginning in the 1960's, when they spent 30 days in separate incubators  before they allowed mom and dad to touch the girls.  It wasn't till they got home after one month that they experienced physical and emotional touch. The twins feel that this trauma helps them with working with their clients suffering from similar experiences.

You can hear endless stories of the twins sharing symbiotic experiences,  emotionally and physically. And yes, they both have criminal records so don't be surprised if their arrest records  show up when you google them.

"In their book "Under The Hood," the twins reveal their own mental illnesses with comedy and heart to smooth the ride. Learn how  to steer your mind in a totally different dirction with simple, easy doable techniques that offer an opportunity to ignite humor and the agent of Change!!

 

 

"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.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Bernstein Amy is a former non fiction writer, journalist, speechwriter who's now concentrating on fiction, including mystery, romance and young adult works. Her most recent books are "The Potrero Complex" and "The NIghthawkers." (Please check on Amazon and/or Bookshop.org to  find her books).

Gloria Felice, Amy's mom,  was a perfectionist layered with chronic anxiety and perhaps a lack of self confidence. So in turn, Gloria perhaps overcompensated by running an extremely orderly household.  So there were a lot of rules. ie "the kitchen was closed," Amy explains so her mom could keep the kitchen clean and organized for a certain amount of time. Gloria was very domestically focused and an exceptional cook. One of Amy's favorite meals was her mom's fried chicken.

Amy's mother was born in 1933 and was hoping to attend a free thinking college but her parent's refused so she settled for one year at Colby College in Maine and shortly married her husband at 18-19 years old. Amy says, "she didn't have a strong enough ego to be defiant.  She would have had such a different life. She wanted to write and didn't have the confidence to do that."

Felice had five children in seven and a half years and as the eldest, Amy took on the responsibilities of helping take care of her younger siblings. Amy explains that she was "an extremely obedient, good girl who never got into any trouble , which I now look back on and regret. I wish that I had acted out. I think I saved my acting out for my 60's."

When it was time to leave home for college, because Amy's mom hadn't gone out into the world, worked outside the home and hadn't had her own life experiences, Amy  didn't really have that close a relationship with her mother. Amy felt she didn't need her. Amy felt her mom couldn't give her what she needed because her mom hadn't experienced any of these things that Amy was searching for. My guest made a conscious decision to have a completely different relationship with her own daughter compared to what Amy experienced from her mother.

Amy always  felt safe and loved by her mother however Amy's tried "to have more of an adult friendship with her own daughter-to let her see me as a  true person with emotions and flaws." 

Amy's still grappling with what kind of relationship she actually had with her mother. She knows that she was loved and taken care of and has similar characteristics, but "she made very conscious choices to be very different." Amy realized "that's not who I wanted to be."

My guest was born in Spain, in the Canary Islands. His father was from Austria and his mom from Chicago. The two met in art school in Vienna. Wenzly speaks English, German and Portuguese.

As Wenzl explains , his earliest childhood memories are of him being wrapped/strapped to his mom's back while she  painted for hours on end. "She a very dedicated artist," shares McGowan. "Her work ethic, her love for art, and also her commitment to being her authentic self has totally made me who I am. I owe a lot to this wonderful woman."

Spending time outdoors and exploring nature was a big part of Wenzl's childhood. He loved building tree houses and exploring the ancient art of building structures with stone among other things. 

One of the main gifts that Wenzl believes his mom gave him when he was a child was "she would never punish me for being my authentic self." Wenzl was very driven and his mom knew not to ever push him in a specific direction. "I think my mom wanted me to have the freedom to decide for myself what I think is good and how I want to spend my time. And she had this respect for me that I think not many people have for their kids."

 According to Wenzl he's "now moving more in the direction of meditation teacher, author and conscientious  explorer, philosopher that kind of thing excites me a lot. "Mom was a great singer and flautist but it came too easy to her so she stuck with her art because she didn't feel that she was an artist at all. We both like to challenge ourselves.

"Perhaps I don't have my stuff together myself. If I want to change the world, or hope for a better future, then I need to change myself," continues McGowen. 

Phenomenal mother, person and artist. Her art is really starting to get noticed. Brooke's philosophy on painting is similar to how she raised Wenzyl. "When she paints, she respects that the paint has their own will. She doesn't use brushes but pours paint on the canvas. And So yes, the paint really does do a lot of things that the artist doesn't expect, because she's not using it in a very controlled way but she is playing with that boundary of loosing control over the paint, but also respecting the paint's freedom to add to the painting in a spontaneous way.

In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship.

As the  oldest of four siblings, Tammy says "I definitely get my drive from my mother. My father says "all my good qualities are from my mom."

Though Tammy grew up in Las Vega, NV, she still has family that live on the reservation in Monument Valley, UT where her mother was raised. And it was through her tribe that both Shirlene and Tammy were able to get funds for their education.  Tammy's family was able to receive funding for college through various organizations, including the 'Native American Scholarship' (NAS) and 'Indian Health Services' (IHS) programs, just to name a few.

Tammy also shared her experience of coming out to her parents when she was then 16. She says "it was no big deal." She told her dad first, then her mom and her mom basically said "ok , cool no big deal." Tammy was very happy that her parents where understanding and that it wasn't a big to do.  She also doesn't understand why her sexual preference is anyone else's  business.  Tammy's advice to parents is, "tell your kids you love them no matter what, you'll never kick them out, and you'll always have a place to live here. Coming out doesn't have to be such a big deal," according to Tammy.

"Mom did all that she did-moved away, moved off the reservation and got her degree because she wanted me to have all the opportunities that she didn't have. My mom calls me her reincarnation" giggles Tammy. Not only do mother and daughter have similar personality traits, they do look very much alike.

After years of  moving base to base in the US and Europe, Yun Cha still in her twenties, moved  back to the United States with her family where she was trying to immerse herself into the American culture.

After time,  trying to hold onto both cultures simultaneously, speaking Korean at home and English outside the home,  inevitably proved impossible. Yun Cha selflessly gave up speaking her native tongue to her children to help them assimilate back into their American culture.

Chris says "my mom was a great dreamer and she dreamed of such wonderful things.   If you do what you want, you'll never work a day in your life." Chris says that was great until he wanted to work in the theatre industry. Suddenly mom was championing for her son to be a doctor or lawyer and not the theatre rat that Chris wanted to be.

While living overseas, Chris and his older sister were immersed in the local culture regardless of what country they were living. That was one of many benefits of the American schools on the base. All the children were introduced to the history, arts and  entertainment of the surrounding area. They were exposed to so much more than their school books.

Eventually Chris's mother did go back to visit her remaining family in Korea. It was then that Yun Cha was able to get a recovered photograph of her mom, something that she longed for for many years. It brought her great comfort to finally see the photo of her mom again.

When speaking about his mother, he fondly recalls stories of how his mother ran their household. Don't forget, at this time in India, women did not work. Their role was to make sure the home was well kept  with generations of family members all living under one roof. 

Naveen's father was a Senior Officer in the Royal Service and it was an arranged marriage that brought the couple together. Jayalakshmi  was an exceptionally talented writer of short stories and novels. Her first priority was at home taking care of the family. She never sat around. She carried a clip board around with her and wrote down her most cherished thoughts. On a daily basis, she kept all the financial records/household accounts of how much money was spent each day. She stayed up late every night to write in two different India languages.   Naveen learned from his maternal grandmother that his mother, the first of eight children dropped out of school after sixth grade because she wanted to get married and settled down. Culturally that was accepted and the norm for the most part.

My guest, the youngest  of four children, had two sisters and one brother. As he says now, "I'm the last man standing." He grew up among elders including his aunt and uncle and his cousin all together in one household. 

Naveen shares three very touching stories about his mother including how and when she started her writing, her professional connections and her public recognition as a highly revered author.  Again, in India, this is unheard of and she did this without fanfare or calling attention to herself.

Naveen's mom, didn't have much of a sense of humor according to her son. She was very practical and a no nonsense kind of woman yet happy with her life.

To find out more about my guest you can use the link below. This event is scheduled for August 28, 2022.  

https://thewashingtonmail.com/win-free-books/

Books Naveen has written:

A Hittite and a Shaman: At Queen Nefertari's Secret Service

Starlight in the Dawn: The Poetic Priestess who chose to fight

Candlelight in a Storm: Born to Be a Berliner

"Candlelight In A Storm-Born To Be A Berliner" a biography of Naveen's wife who fled from WWII's violence, escaped from Communist regimes and traveled around the world. He is the recipient of the 2018 DaVinci Eye Finalist-The Eric Hoffer Award. 

 “Courageous and resilient women in history: Women are under-represented in history. A closer look and even fantasy in fiction may help," say Sradhir.

My guest has written several books about women who have overcome difficulties, oppression and more. Mr. Sridhar continues " women ,famous or not,  who show their grit by way of resilience, adamance and courage, these women are quiet and not talked about, their stories untold. Instead of HIS-tory maybe it should be HER-story."

Naveen Sridhar's website:   https://www.naveensridhar.com/

Languages Naveen Speaks: English, German, Hindi, French, Kannada, Spanish, Tamil, Urdu

]]> Tue, 23 Aug 2022 02:00:00 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (Naveen Sridhar, Indian author Naveen Sridhar, should have listened to my mother podcast, shltmm podcast, jackie tantillo) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/an-unassuming-powerhouse-with-guest-award-winning-author-and-chemist-naveen-sridhar-KEE5ijGU I truly enjoyed my conversation with Naveen.Even with  all of his accomplishments, he's very humble and unassuming. When speaking about his mother, he fondly recalls stories of how his mother ran their household. Don't forget, at this time in India, women did not work. Their role was to make sure the home was well kept  with generations of family members all living under one roof. 

Naveen's father was a Senior Officer in the Royal Service and it was an arranged marriage that brought the couple together. Jayalakshmi  was an exceptionally talented writer of short stories and novels. Her first priority was at home taking care of the family. She never sat around. She carried a clip board around with her and wrote down her most cherished thoughts. On a daily basis, she kept all the financial records/household accounts of how much money was spent each day. She stayed up late every night to write in two different India languages.   Naveen learned from his maternal grandmother that his mother, the first of eight children dropped out of school after sixth grade because she wanted to get married and settled down. Culturally that was accepted and the norm for the most part.

My guest, the youngest  of four children, had two sisters and one brother. As he says now, "I'm the last man standing." He grew up among elders including his aunt and uncle and his cousin all together in one household. 

Naveen shares three very touching stories about his mother including how and when she started her writing, her professional connections and her public recognition as a highly revered author.  Again, in India, this is unheard of and she did this without fanfare or calling attention to herself.

Naveen's mom, didn't have much of a sense of humor according to her son. She was very practical and a no nonsense kind of woman yet happy with her life.

To find out more about my guest you can use the link below. This event is scheduled for August 28, 2022.  

https://thewashingtonmail.com/win-free-books/

Books Naveen has written:

A Hittite and a Shaman: At Queen Nefertari's Secret Service

Starlight in the Dawn: The Poetic Priestess who chose to fight

Candlelight in a Storm: Born to Be a Berliner

"Candlelight In A Storm-Born To Be A Berliner" a biography of Naveen's wife who fled from WWII's violence, escaped from Communist regimes and traveled around the world. He is the recipient of the 2018 DaVinci Eye Finalist-The Eric Hoffer Award. 

 “Courageous and resilient women in history: Women are under-represented in history. A closer look and even fantasy in fiction may help," say Sradhir.

My guest has written several books about women who have overcome difficulties, oppression and more. Mr. Sridhar continues " women ,famous or not,  who show their grit by way of resilience, adamance and courage, these women are quiet and not talked about, their stories untold. Instead of HIS-tory maybe it should be HER-story."

Naveen Sridhar's website:   https://www.naveensridhar.com/

Languages Naveen Speaks: English, German, Hindi, French, Kannada, Spanish, Tamil, Urdu

 

 

"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.

He is a retired FBI tactical instructor, active shooter expert,  counter terrorism team trainer  and more.  Greg is the author of the best-selling book, “Stay Safe – Security Secrets for Today‘s Dangerous World”.

Considering his background and busy schedule, Greg couldn't have been more excited to share stories of his mother, Penny. All the sons  loved their mom and it's a pleasure to share the stories with you.

Penny was a professional ballroom dancer who competed throughout the United States with her dance partner of many years. She loved to dance so much that she'd even clean the house and dance at the same time. Family was everything to the Shaffer family, especially because of all the international traveling that they did when the kids were younger, it brought them closer together. 

Penny loved to cook and was famous for her 'Penny Shaffer pancakes' and fried chicken. 

Greg says, "it was almost like a 'Leave It To Beaver' kind of family. We are all so close and there was so much love and laughter.

 

"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.

And Jackson has been writing songs since he was about 12 years old. His debut single, "I Love you Mom" is a belated birthday gift to his mom. He wasn't going to record it in his next studio session but his coworkers insisted, and here we are.

Over the years and decades of working in the radio industry, I've interviewed hundreds of musicians. Jackson is up there at the top of the list as far as being polite, honest, humble and open about his strengths and weaknesses. I imagine a lot of that comes from his childhood and the fact that his family played a huge role in his life. Family is very important to my guest, not only because they keep you grounded, but he realized at a young age exactly how fortunate he truly was to have a mom , dad and brother that  truly supported each other. He was taught to show respect and appreciation for all that he has and he really is all that!  Jackson talks about "his solid foundation" and how it helps him stayed focused.

'Norman's Rare Guitars' in Los Angeles, CA recorded a few videos with Jackson featured playing the guitar with special guest musicians. You should check these videos out on

He's known for being at the right place at the right time but Jackson works hard at his craft because he's so passionate about his music.  Jackson has a great story to share about one of his early performances at the legendary Puckett's in Leipers Fort, TN. For such a young performer, he got some crazy memorable stories to share about all the celebrated artists he's come into contact with.

I wish you all the best Jackson!

When Irina mentioned that her grandmother had taught her to sew, I knew there was something very telling about her maternal role models in her life.  Irina introduces us to her mother, Etya and Grandmother Beyla, who was a seamstress. Unfortunately, Etya's father died when she was a young teen in Russia.

Etya was born and lived in Russia till the age of 25. She was one of three children, came from a poor family at a time when it was difficult to be successful in Russia. Etya was the kind of child that "always wanted more than what was available," says my guest about her mom.

My guest, Irina was born in Russia  and came to America as a Jewish refugee when 2 1/12 years old.  What is it like to grow up with a mother who always thought of herself first?  "She told me I  that I was worthless and stupid all the time" says Lester of her mother.  "I was always in her way and she was always exhausted by me." Irina says she developed survival skills at a very young age.

It wasn't until Beyla, Irina's grandmother, insisted on taking her granddaughter to her place of work as a seamstress or to her home, "where she felt safe, loved and cared for and allowed to be a kid," continues Lester. This is when and how Irina's life started to turn around.  I know that there are many children that never get this lifeline through out their life. Irina got lucky but there certainly are many scars that she wears with frustration, hurt  and humility.

Previously divorced and a single mom, Irina struggled to care for her young daughter, so she's familiar with what her mother experienced, but it doesn't mean that you have the right to mistreat and/or abuse your child because you are a narcissist. 

"The local Yarn Store",  in  large part, is due to the influence her grandmother had on my guest's life. Beyla introduced  Irina  to embroidering and hand stitching and so much more.  Irina says, "my grandmother taught me to appreciate the beauty and the creative process and the functionality of the basics of clothing."  Luckily, Irina inherited her grandmother's sewing machine and is now an avid knitter.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

When Irina mentioned that her grandmother had taught her to sew, I knew there was something very telling about her maternal role models in her life.  Irina introduces us to her mother, Etya and Grandmother Beyla, who was a seamstress. Unfortunately, Etya's father died when she was a young teen in Russia.

Etya was born and lived in Russia till the age of 25. She was one of three children, came from a poor family at a time when it was difficult to be successful in Russia. Etya was the kind of child that "always wanted more than what was available," says my guest about her mom.

My guest, Irina was born in Russia  and came to America as a Jewish refugee when 2 1/12 years old.  What is it like to grow up with a mother who always thought of herself first?  "She told me I  that I was worthless and stupid all the time" says Lester of her mother.  "I was always in her way and she was always exhausted by me." Irina says she developed survival skills at a very young age.

It wasn't until Beyla, Irina's grandmother, insisted on taking her granddaughter to her place of work as a seamstress or to her home, "where she felt safe, loved and cared for and allowed to be a kid," continues Lester. This is when and how Irina's life started to turn around.  I know that there are many children that never get this lifeline through out their life. Irina got lucky but there certainly are many scars that she wears with frustration, hurt  and humility.

Previously divorced and a single mom, Irina struggled to care for her young daughter, so she's familiar with what her mother experienced, but it doesn't mean that you have the right to mistreat and/or abuse your child because you are a narcissist. 

"The local Yarn Store",  in  large part, is due to the influence her grandmother had on my guest's life. Beyla introduced  Irina  to embroidering and hand stitching and so much more.  Irina says, "my grandmother taught me to appreciate the beauty and the creative process and the functionality of the basics of clothing."  Luckily, Irina inherited her grandmother's sewing machine and is now an avid knitter.

The Cuban Government agreed to allow America to transport fleeing Cuban families, with relatives in the US,  to Miami. In 1967, Maria, her brother  and her parents were among  the hundreds of thousands that fled to start a new life in America. Because the family was sponsored by a New Jersey business man, they settled there to begin their new life. 

Maria was 16-17 years old when she came to the United States and according to her son, "considers herself an American." Joe insists "my mother is old school and worked very hard through out her life.  She went to school for as long as her family could pay for it and then went on to work in factories where she was treated terribly as an immigrant."

Both of Joe's parent's families are originally from Spain, even though his mother had been living in Cuba.  Joe's father, a ship mechanic and hard worker came to the US and met Maria.   They married when Maria was 19 years old and started a family.

Joe repeatedly mentions through out the interview that as a child and even today,  "I never wanted to disappoint my mother." Both of his parents worked very hard to give Joe and his brother everything they wanted. All Maria asked of her boys was to treat others they way you  want to be treated. "Mom encouraged us to do what ever made us happy" says Pardavila. "I'm very grateful for all those little life lessons that were taught to me, whether through osmosis or verbal. It king of stuck to me and it's a part of my life for life."

Joe is the Director  of Podcasts for Advantage Forbes Books as well as the host of the podcast "Uncertain Times, Survive And Thrive In Business." He's also written the book "Good Listen," where he shares his experience and background as a producer/talent for the 'Scott and Todd Morning Show' on WPLJ FM, one of New York City iconic radio shows for 2 decades. He came to understand that he had many "soft skills" he could share and apply with others regarding great communication tools, regardless of what medium you choose to apply them.

 

 

 

 

The Freedom Flights were an unusual instance of cooperation between the US and Cuban governments. During the Camarioca boatlift in 1965, Castro opened up the Cuban port of Camarioca for the departure of Cubans with relatives in the US (excluding men of military age). The number of boats and fleeing Cubans was so great that the boatlift overwhelmed the US Coast Guard. In an effort to support refugees and quell chaos, the US agreed with Cuba to finance the Freedom Flights, which transported Cuban refugees with US relatives to Miami twice daily, five times per week between 1965 and 1973. The Freedom Flights would bring about 300,000 Cubans to the US and cost approximately twelve million dollars. Although Castro initially agreed to the program, Cubans who signed up faced harassment and humiliation before their departure and property confiscation after.

"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.

Robert is the middle child of nine, five girls and four boys. Because of his mother's health, the family packed up and moved to California from Minnesota. The warm, sunny weather of southern California helped with his mom's chronic pneumonia.  But the many lakes in Minnesota played a crucial role in Robert's  relationship with his mom, one that he'll never forget.

Robert says, my mother had a sunny personality, really cheerful. She looked at real estate as a matchmaker-match people together with a beautiful home."

Joan lost her mom, Robert's maternal grandmother, when she was four years old, so she never really knew how to cook. So she didn't have the traditional family recipes to fall back on each night.  However, she had a solid positive outlook and she truly knew her son really well.

When asked if he and his siblings had plenty of freedom and were off on their own and knew when to come home for dinner Robert says "everyone else kind of new when to come home for dinner. I was kind of the devious one."  The thing that hurt him more than anything was when his mom would say "I'm very disappointed in you." To this day Robert says " I didn't want to disappoint my mother."

Believe it or not, it was Robert's mom who busted him for shoplifting as a young boy. Robert says "I was a master shoplifter when I was a kid. "I was always hungry" continues Boog. But my mom eventually asked me for the receipts. she knew and put a stop to  it. Again, he didn't want to disappoint his mom. 

Robert's a smart guy. As a kid he skipped a few grades with the support of one of his older sisters. He got a scholarship to USLA  and graduated with a BA in Literature . He's written a few books, including real estate books as well as "Shakey's Madness - Does  A Mental Disorder Reveal The Real William Shakespeare" and "Hang Shakespeare. Robert also likes to dabble in song writing. 

As the 5th of the 9 kids, smack dab in the middle, Robert became a good negotiator. He shares some fun stories of what it was like at the dinner table and who had what chores and responsibilities. 

Joan had a profound impact on her son.  So much so, that he's still successfully running the business that she started way back when. She offered her son a ticket to go see the legendary sales trainer/realtor, Tom Hopkins, and it changed Robert's life. He realized that there was quite a bit more to real estate than he thought. 

Fortunately or unfortunately it was out of fear that motivated Joan to start working when Robert was a teen. Due to traumatic family circumstances, she realized that she needed to get a job. If anything happened to her husband, she needed to be able to put food on the table and take care of her children.

Robert lives in Valencia, CA.

There's so much more to this story. Hope you enjoy the listen.

I went on to pursue higher education and become a teacher, and after retiring from a successful and rewarding career, I went on to write an award winning spiritual fiction and a prominently endorsed 5-book series (in addition to contributing to numerous anthology books."  Dr. Foderaro continues, "I am passionate about handling life's challenges with goodness, compassion, honesty and love. I talk about surviving Family Trauma which initially led to being open to the Universe's signs and synchronicities, and then eventually led to my writing to heal and becoming an author.

From a young age, Marni's mother, Elizabeth Ann, taught her daughter many lessons. Often these recurring lessons were meant to instill creativity, discipline and motivation, all skills that Marni says were helpful when becoming a teacher. For example, Marni shares the story of when she was a child and wanted her first ten speed bicycle and many more.  Her mother was steadfast and had specific reasoning as to how Marni could get that bike. You'll have to listen to the show to get all the details. Just so you know, both  Marni and her mother were writers and teachers.

"My mother was a lover of words and extremely witty and intelligent. She grew up in Florida and North Carolina. She got her   Masters Degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in an era and area of the United States  which typically  was unheard of for women, continues Marni. Before completing her Masters, Elizabeth Ann was a high school English teacher in Broward Co., Florida and went on to teach English at Stetson University at DeLand, Florida." Marni is convinced that her mom had tremendous family support and encouragement as a young lady, otherwise "there's no way she could have achieved all that she did" reflects Dr. Foderaro.

Marni has many wonderful stories to share about her mother and how she encouraged and supported her as a child and how her mother still influences her today. " I know my mom was a huge part of who I am."

Foderaro admits that her upbringing was unconventional compared to her peers. It was the 60's and she and her two younger brothers had plenty of freedom. The kids were often on their own, left to raise themselves, yet plenty of time to be creative. Her father was a college professor. 

"The freedom had pros and cons", says Foderaro, "I didn't get guidance for many things, it was bittersweet. I was often striving for structure and discipline and I grew up being very organized which helped me with my teaching career."

 

More from Marni's Bio:

Marni’s life was forever changed after experiencing numerous trauma-induced STEs-Spiritually Transformative Encounters. Marni’s 2020 Best Books Award Winning Spiritual fiction “God Came to My Garage Sale” is prominently endorsed by James Redfield, best selling author of “The Celestine Prophecy” series of books and founding directors of IANDS (International Association for Near Death Studies). 

Marni’s latest prominently endorsed 5-book series is entitled: “True Deceit False Love” addresses Domestic Violence, Narcissistic Abuse, Parental Alienation and Intergenerational Family Trauma.

Marni is a lover of animals, nature, music and world travel who handles life’s challenges with love and compassion. She values honesty, integrity, equality and goodness and prays for peace on earth. 

In addition to her speaking engagements and various writing endeavors, Foderaro is a contributing author to numerous anthology books, including: “The Last Breath,” “The Evolution of Echo,” “We’re All In This Together: Embrace One Another,” “The Ulti-MUTT Book for Dog Lovers” and “bLU Talks Presents” (Business, Life and the Universe.) 

In January 2022 Marni was inducted into the Bestselling Authors International Organization.

A time of confusion, despair and relief,  yet so much regret for members of her  family that were left behind to the inevitable Nazi genocide of European Jews.  Ruth was the last Jewish baby born in Wertheim am Main.

Ruth's family was upper middle class cattle dealers in Germany yet once in the US, they lived in poverty and worked whatever jobs they could to provide for the family including manuel labor as  maids, painters, dishwashers, etc. "Regardless of their hardship, they were loving and sought happiness," declares Ramsfelder.  " Mom grew up in  a very structured environment while being raised by two traumatized refugees." Jonathan continues with wonder as he shares the stories that have been repeated to him over the years. He's amazed at how his "maternal grandparents were lovely and embracing of life," in spite of their hardships. "The family educated themselves and embraced each other," continues Jonathan. 

Ruth went to school through high school and her son feels that she's one of the most intelligent people he knows. Had she been born at a different time, Jonathan believes that she would have been able to accomplish great things and work at a Fortune 500 company and more. 

Even though her son knows that "his mom suffered from her past, she was often demonstrating gratitude and contentment-they are my mom's hallmarks."  

According to Jonathan, "Ruth is his role model and she's very instrumental in him becoming who he is today. She's outgoing and loves to meet people, she's put together cognitively, a reader of people and great at getting advice- not a judge of people." 

Ruth was steadfast in her optimistic ways, bound to be grateful and appreciative as well as inquisitive. Jonathan knew from an early age that based on his parents past and the trauma they had endured, he would never be able to disappoint them. Instead he says "that he used his parents experience as a source of encouragement  and ambition."

So many wonderful life lessons to learn from my conversation with Jonathan about his  mother, Ruth. You can't ever give up hope in humanity  is one  of my take aways.

There's so much more to this story so please listen to the episode and I've also attached Jonathan Ramsfelder's story 

that he posted on LInkedIn  in honor of his mother on Holocaust Remembrance Day 2022:

**********************************************************************************************

This is a photo of me and my mom, Ruth Ramsfelder, the last Jewish person born in her home town of Wertheim am Main, Germany. Tonight and tomorrow mark Holocaust Remembrance Day or, in Hebrew, Yom Hashoah.

This is a photo of a Holocaust survivor and her son, myself, a product of two refugees who experienced childhood trauma through persecution, dislocation, the murder of their family members and, upon arriving in the U.S. in 1938 and 1939 (my mom and my dad, respectively) poverty.

This is a photo of a woman who didn't have the opportunity to advance her education beyond high school but who is one of the most intelligent people (IQ and EQ) I have ever met.

Resilience, positive outlook, compassion for others, kindness and good decision making are her signature attributes, along with networking and relationship‐building skills that could have catapulted her to the top of the corporate ladder had she been born 60 years later and not in a country bent on marginalizing (and ultimately exterminating) all of its Jewish citizens.

This is a photo that proves that Hitler lost, the Jewish People are still here and that we will continue on.

Her parents immigrated from Southern Italy to Australia when they were  young. Rosa and Alfredo, Grace's parents, met many years later in Australia and started their family of four girls.  Rosa was one of nine children and she was  fifteen when landing in Australia. Alfredo lost both his parents at five years old and had a rough childhood.  He was a victim of abuse and moved from house to house as a child. De Angeli reflects saying "he did the best he could with what he had."

Grace insists "that it was a cultural thing" as to why her mother stayed throughout  many years of emotional, verbal and physical abuse. Eventually, Grace and her younger sister became targets as well.  It was always the fear and bullying tactic that their father used especially against their mom, Rosa. Grace says that her father would often scream at her mother "you either stay or you die" or "you leave, I'll kill you." So her mother stayed out of fear.  "We were all brought up with the fear that if we did something wrong we would be killed," remarks Grace. "When I think back to my childhood I wasn't protected by my mother, but she taught me who not to be when I grew up."

One would think that this would take a real tole on Grace's life and her future. But the best news is that with the help of her husband and many others, Grace has learned how to transform her life and heal from her scars of her father plus how to beat Breast Cancer with many different treatments and therapies including Eastern and Western Medicines, mind over matter and the list goes on and on. She is a true inspiration. She declares "it doesn't matter where you are in your journey, whether stage 1 or stage 4 breast cancer OR any illness, you need to get things right in your soul and spirit, where you are your most authentic self." She continues, "it doesn't matter as long as you are honest and liberated within yourself, it doesn't matter what happens next."

For a young woman who at twenty one years old had contemplated suicide, to becoming this force of nature to heal not only herself but help others on their individual journey is remarkable.

There's so much more to this story so please do listen to the episode in it's entirety. Grace is emphatic when saying "we were put on this planet to be ourself. If you can be the best version of yourself, you've done it."

Their relationship was very special yet at times painful. bi-polar, geneticist, sro, board certified surgeon false full 21 3 7014a72e-4a6b-4ed7-82a6-fedf260ac0bf HOST JACKIE TANTILLO - Generations Of Influential Women With Guests Singer Nadia Turner and Daughter Zareh Isa Nadia Turner was the #8 finalist on the 4th season of American Idol (2005) and Zareh, also know as Za, was only four years old. In the spring of 2022  Zareh, then  21,  auditioned for AI and surprised her mother when she took her to the audition.  Zareh   performed “Bust Out Your Windows” by Jazmine Sullivan, which impressed the judges.

It was such a pleasure to have a conversation with both mother and daughter at the same time, to share stories of  Nadia's mom and grandmother as well as  Za's perspective of her mother and grandmother -we're talking about four generations of strong women.

Nadia says she's a very different parent today than she was in her 20's and a college student when Za was born. She's very grateful because she always new that her mother was going to be there to help her raised her two daughters.  Zareh  completely understands why her younger sister is being raised differently than she was. Zareh says that her mom was very strict when she was young but now she understands and appreciates why and respects her mother's decisions. It was, at times, overwhelming raising Zareh when Nadia was younger but now she's got a different attitude about raising her younger daughter, she  concentrates on the things that are important, the things that really matter. 

Rosita, Nadia's mother, originally from the island of St. Eustatius, was a single mom who worked 9-5 at an electric company. "There's never been a time when she didn't show up for me" reflects Nadia. Rosita was very supportive of her daughter, whether it was sports or a school activity, she was always there for her regardless if she truly understood her daughters passions or interests.  "I couldn't have done this thing called motherhood with out my mother, Rose," says Turner.

Nadia spent quite a bit of time with her maternal grandmother, Esme, Rosita's mother.  Nadia  remembers her grandmother as "being my Zen, my peace, always very quiet and calm." She continues "she was very religious and always humming her hymns, she never raised her voice and for some reason, that moved mountains for me." When Nadia was a child and she and her mother got into an argument,  Nadia recalls simply sitting quietly next to her grandmother and holding her hand which made everything feel alright.

There's so much more to learn about my two guests and the influential women that helped them become who they are today. Always so grateful for the mothers/grandmothers and female family members who preceded us to lay down the groundwork and straightened path to keep us moving forward.

When I asked Za if she stands a little taller because of these strong women in her life she responds, "my grandmother and mother are my biggest idols. I look up to them for everything they do. We are a family full of women. My grandmother is present no matter what's going on. I'm so grateful and definitely stand taller."

There's so much more to these two magnificent women. Hope you enjoy the conversation.

Thank you for sharing your stories Nadia and Zareh.

In the spring of 2022  Zareh, then  21,  auditioned for AI and surprised her mother when she took her to the audition.  Zareh   performed “Bust Out Your Windows” by Jazmine Sullivan, which impressed the judges.

It was such a pleasure to have a conversation with both mother and daughter at the same time, to share stories of  Nadia's mom and grandmother as well as  Za's perspective of her mother and grandmother -we're talking about four generations of strong women.

Nadia says she's a very different parent today than she was in her 20's and a college student when Za was born. She's very grateful because she always new that her mother was going to be there to help her raised her two daughters.  Zareh  completely understands why her younger sister is being raised differently than she was. Zareh says that her mom was very strict when she was young but now she understands and appreciates why and respects her mother's decisions. It was, at times, overwhelming raising Zareh when Nadia was younger but now she's got a different attitude about raising her younger daughter, she  concentrates on the things that are important, the things that really matter. 

Rosita, Nadia's mother, originally from the island of St. Eustatius, was a single mom who worked 9-5 at an electric company. "There's never been a time when she didn't show up for me" reflects Nadia. Rosita was very supportive of her daughter, whether it was sports or a school activity, she was always there for her regardless if she truly understood her daughters passions or interests.  "I couldn't have done this thing called motherhood with out my mother, Rose," says Turner.

Nadia spent quite a bit of time with her maternal grandmother, Esme, Rosita's mother.  Nadia  remembers her grandmother as "being my Zen, my peace, always very quiet and calm." She continues "she was very religious and always humming her hymns, she never raised her voice and for some reason, that moved mountains for me." When Nadia was a child and she and her mother got into an argument,  Nadia recalls simply sitting quietly next to her grandmother and holding her hand which made everything feel alright.

There's so much more to learn about my two guests and the influential women that helped them become who they are today. Always so grateful for the mothers/grandmothers and female family members who preceded us to lay down the groundwork and straightened path to keep us moving forward.

When I asked Za if she stands a little taller because of these strong women in her life she responds, "my grandmother and mother are my biggest idols. I look up to them for everything they do. We are a family full of women. My grandmother is present no matter what's going on. I'm so grateful and definitely stand taller."

There's so much more to these two magnificent women. Hope you enjoy the conversation.

Thank you for sharing your stories Nadia and Zareh.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

He's not looking for personal gain, but solely out of respect and admiration for his mom, Constance or better known as Connie, Trevor wants her story told.  

The second son of four children, two boys and two girls, Trevor,  so he says was  "accident prone" as a child which kind of came in handy when his mother became a x-ray technologist.  An active child, sometimes stumbling over his own feet and/or injuries related to sports allowed he and his mom to spend some 'one on one' time together having x-rays taken after a fall.

Connie was a nurse. She had worked in the ER and then transitioned into becoming a x-ray tech. It's a challenging career shift, lots to learn and the information is complicated regarding the machines and constant technical updates. Connie really gravitated to her new career,  she was constantly studying and staying current with all aspect of this new field .  Her experience as a nurse reenforced Connie's ability to be very nurturing. She truly cared about her patient's wellbeing and wanted to see them through their difficulties. Trevor's believes that this  "truly resinated with his mother, the fact that she was there to help them. She was able to connect with each and everyone of them."

Though stressful, in time, she was able to segment or compartmentalize  the work/stressors and come home and be  mom. She was very good at leaving her work out of the home.  

Over time, Trevor's mother made a very difficult decision, which would effect the entire family.  Trevor wrote me initially to say "our family went through some terrible difficulties because of this decision, with her picking up work at a bakery to try and make ends meet.  Her courage left a lasting impression on me. To stand up and refuse to be taken advantage of and mistreated knowing the road ahead would not be easy, always inspired me in my own career to aspire to such courage.  I'm a UI (User Interface) designer, who's been in the industry for over 16 years and I can think of many times my career was inspired by my mother's bravery".

When Trevor was in high school his mother quit her well paying job as the x-ray technologist because "of the abhorrent conditions of the work place," says Trevor.  His mother wasn't being respected and Connie and Jim, Trevor's dad, mutually agreed that it wasn't a healthy situation and time to walk away. " My mother had  tremendous drive to stay in her job, she was highly qualified, but there was a breaking point.  She couldn't in good faith keep this going." Trevor continues, my mom  said, 'I'm worth more than this.'  "And more importantly, she wanted to make a statement to her kids that you stand up for yourself, you don't get pushed around and get taken advantage of," says a proud Alexander.

We never know what life is going to throw our way, but it's important to believe in ourselves and realize that there is always a solution for a better future and no one/no employer should ever take advantage of anyone, ever.

Connie took a job in a bakery at a supermarket with crazy hours. She had to work 12 hour shifts on her feet, but she loved it. She made new friends and would come home laughing and smiling with wonderful stories to share. She also came home with fresh baked goodies for the family.

Trevor's book is entitled " An Ugly Design Career".   https://uglydesigncareer.com/

She was proud of her accomplishments and rightfully so.  

Chef Dennis is a successful classically trained chef, now retired and a very popular travel and food blogger. He prefers to cook for others rather than cook a meal for himself. His grandmother taught him a lot about food and cooking and she passed down "the joy of cooking." And now Dennis is sharing the 'joy of it' with all of his readers. You can find out more at https://www.askchefdennis.com/ 

Dennis's maternal grandparents were originally from Mexico and both were highly educated. His grandmother was a  teacher and his grandfather  a minister.  Eunice and her nine siblings were also all educated starting at a young age. All the children were born and raised in Texas and bilingual from an early age. Littley says of his mother's family "they were an all American family-all my uncles served in the Armed Forces and an uncle was at Pearl Harbor."  

Because Eunice was always studying and/or working, she never really had too much time to cook.  She often worked nights so she could be home to see  Dennis before and after school. Chef Dennis says that his mom, who he adored dearly, "influenced him and his love for cooking in an offhanded way." "Her lack of cooking skills and my love of food and her encouragement really helped push me in the right direction.  She was the reason I really started cooking and went int this field." says Littley.  

Dennis loved to cook for his mom and says  "I was never pressured into being a doctor or lawyer, my mother just wanted me to be happy."  But he took care of his mom as well. At a young age, he would collect recyclable bottles and cans, ride his bike to the supermarket and buy food with the money he made to cook for his mom because she didn't have time to cook for herself.  Dennis agrees that he gave his parents a hard time, a bit rambunctious, but he was named after the  'Dennis the Menace' tv character, after all.

My guest, got his first full time job at 12 years old and became manager of a burger place, flipping burgers at 13 in Atlantic City, New Jersey right on the ocean.

When asked what meal he'd cook for his mom if she were here today, Dennis reminisces about the rice, pepper, onion, bacon and cheddar cheese casserole his mom and he loved to eat till the dish was empty and everyone was happy.  Later on in life, once Eunice had retired from nursing, she was able to embrace her time in the kitchen with her friends and found the ‘joy of cooking’.

"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.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Sometimes a dire situation presents itself and the outcome is much better than we could have ever imagined. In this particular case, it took a mother to show her true love, courage and support and possibly willingly risk jail time to prove  to her son that she loved him with her whole heart.  

While convalescing at home, Chisom finally was courageous enough to come out to his loving parents. Bedridden and home bound after his initial collapse, he was convinced it was time to open up to his parents about his sexuality. At a most vulnerable time in his life, he was scared and nervous about telling his parents the truth, that he was gay.  He was certain that both his parents loved him unconditionally but  was afraid this was going to be too much for them.  "Knowing that my parents loved me so much, made it that much easier to come out to them and be open with them," added Chisom. His mother's response was " I know, I've always known," says my guest.

On a grander scale, writing a personal essay about being a member of the LGBTQ community and  having his story published in the NY Times Modern Love Column was frighting.  Possibly the whole world could read it and find out the truth, that Chisom was a member of the gay community. Chisom's essay is an endearing story of his parent's love for their son. His mother, who's name is Gift, is exceptionally open and honest and loving of her son, regardless of his sexual preference. One can only hope, that everyone struggling with coming out to their loved ones, will receive the same openness and acceptance.

Chisom's message to his mother "You are a rock star. You are a gift to me. And I love you very much. Words can't describe how much I love you and how much you mean to me. Everything I do, I do it for you. You are always there for me and you always support me. You always tell me to shoot for the stars".

**In February 2021, Chisom has hired to be the Deputy Editor and Culture and Technology reporter  of @Livingfree_UK.  https://livingfreeuk.org/

"Living Free UK is a registered community interest company founded in 2018 out of the struggles of millions of LGBTIQ+ Africans who are still battling with their sexuality and gender identity, especially in countries where it is still illegal to live their truth and in some cases lose their lives while trying to find liberty and acceptance.

Our main aim is to provide support and validate the lived experiences of LGBTIQ+ Africans, people seeking asylum, and refugees. As research shows, there are 72 countries where homosexuality is still a crime and even in the UK, LGBTIQ+ Africans experience immense difficultly when finding a safe space to express themselves freely and openly without fear of racism, afrophobia, or prejudice of any kind. Some are also unable to return home because of the danger that awaits them.

**Now a budding journalist and recent nominee for a journalistic award- this is from Chisom's LinkedIn Acct. (March 2022)

"Yesterday  was the Future Awards Africa, and I was nominated for the journalism prize and was also the second youngest nominee in the awards. While I didn't win, I'm grateful for the opportunity to be seen.

As a young journalist covering policies and minority groups in Nigeria and Sub-Saharan Africa, the work I do can be pretty dangerous, but getting nominated for this is a "stepping stone," as my ma put it. Also, I did receive a certificate of nomination, so yay!!

Here is to more extraordinary things in 2022 and beyond because I am just getting started."

Looking Back At S2E1  

Marcie Coronado has travelled quite a bit, yet always comes back to Medanales, New Mexico.

It's high arid dessert and a farming community where the main source of water is the Rio Chama. Between a lack of water and adverse weather conditions, it was often a struggle.

Her father's side of the family is part hispanic, by way of Mexico and her mother's side of the family is native to New Mexico.  

As the oldest, Marcie helped raised her 7 younger siblings.  The women of the family did all the cooking and weaving and the men did all the outside work, including the farming.

Marcie's mother, Cordelia, had her hands full. Today at 87, Cordelia is still farming  and weaving- The South West Weavers. 

Marcie's grandmother, Agueda Salazar Martinez, noted for her Chimayo-style woven rugs and blankets, a world renown weaver, has her weavings in the Smithsonian Institution in DC.

Marcie's grandfather was the very first postmaster general in Medanales.  So you see, my guest has a long family history in the area.  Along with that, comes big responsibilities.

"My mother taught us to be good, share what you can, if you see someone struggling, help them up," says Marcie. Marcie is still helping people out in her community today. 

Cordelia taught Marcie and her siblings that, "you always have to guide that sapling,  tie it on both sides so it grows straight.  You have to guide it otherwise it'll always go toward the sun and you don't necessarily want that."

In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

Marcie Coronado has travelled quite a bit, yet always comes back to Medanales, New Mexico.

It's high arid dessert and a farming community where the main source of water is the Rio Chama. Between a lack of water and adverse weather conditions, it was often a struggle.

Her father's side of the family is part hispanic, by way of Mexico and her mother's side of the family is native to New Mexico.  

As the oldest, Marcie helped raised her 7 younger siblings.  The women of the family did all the cooking and weaving and the men did all the outside work, including the farming.

Marcie's mother, Cordelia, had her hands full. Today at 87, Cordelia is still farming  and weaving- The South West Weavers. 

Marcie's grandmother, Agueda Salazar Martinez, noted for her Chimayo-style woven rugs and blankets, a world renown weaver, has her weavings in the Smithsonian Institution in DC.

Marcie's grandfather was the very first postmaster general in Medanales.  So you see, my guest has a long family history in the area.  Along with that, comes big responsibilities.

"My mother taught us to be good, share what you can, if you see someone struggling, help them up," says Marcie. Marcie is still helping people out in her community today. 

Cordelia taught Marcie and her siblings that, "you always have to guide that sapling,  tie it on both sides so it grows straight.  You have to guide it otherwise it'll always go toward the sun and you don't necessarily want that."

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoUWxgQECqrMqI1ylVH9Dpw

 

It wasn't until two years ago that my guest, Scott Gazzoli, now 32, learned the truth about why his father suddenly disappeared back in 1995.   When Scott was 5-6 yrs old, his dad suddenly vanished, leaving his mother, Caroline, to raise Scott and his younger sister Sable by herself in Brooklyn, NY.  Caroline did everything  possible to give her children what ever they wanted and needed. One could  say, even if it meant using the Robin Hood Effect.

Scott Gizzoli is a successful financial advisor and podcast host of "Causing the Effect," a show covering philosophy/ psychology and helping others try and find their true self.

From his own personal experiences, Scott has learned about the downfalls of always  doing what others want  you to do, whether it's regarding your education,  career choice, personal relationships, etc.   He's done so many wonderful things, accomplished so much-above and beyond most of his contemporaries, however, he's learning now that he wants to live his own life and do what makes him happy and not what others want. "Being  our true self is one of our biggest gifts we can give ourselves," say Gazzoli as he shares about his podcast and the special guests he has on the show.  "No more living by other peoples expectations and perceptions."

Scott and his sister Sable, were fortunate to have a hard working Mom taking care of them. I can't wait for you to hear this interview and get to know their mom, Caroline.

Scott is a Managing Director with the Quest Organization, a boutique advisory firm that caters to the needs of High Net Worth Individuals and Families. Scott prides himself on his ability to create solutions and build relationships with his clients. Scott is also a comedian by night!

After six years, getting straight A's and doing all that she was 'supposed to do,'  completing her bachelors degree and getting a Master's Degree in Industrial Design, she realized that she wasn't happy. My guest loved the design work but really missed the one one one interaction with people. 

After watching her mother struggle in an attempt  to start her own business and fail, Sophee felt so much 'self doubt' that she never thought she'd be capable of  starting her own.  Again, interesting dynamics between the two women often got in the way. Payne feels that her mom likes having people around so they can do things for her that she doesn't necessarily like to do. "She demands a lot from the people closest to her," admits Sophee. "I think of her as a sun, even from a distance I can feel this warmth, she gives direction, but at the same time, the closer you get the more uncomfortably warm you get  and also the more you're kind of forced to evolve around her," reflects Payne.

Sophee is comfortable saying what works for her now regarding her relationship with her mom.  It's about "showing my mom compassion, compassion with boundaries."

As I mention in the introduction of my show, Gramps Jeffrey, I believe is the first grandfather I've interviewed on SHLTMM, so that's pretty great. I was so happy to hear how engaged he is with his grandchildren.

Gramps' mother's name was Faye  and she really left quite an impression on him and his brother.  Faye was the youngest of 3 children, with two older brothers. Growing up during the Depression and  WWII, known as The Greatest Generation, was a very challenging time, "and my mother lived up to every expectation", continues Gramps.  

While raising her two boys, she  insisted they turn off the tv and read-no if, ands or buts. "We loved our mother," says Gramps, referring to him and his brother. They grew up in a small town in Ohio, about 50 miles outside Columbus,  where they were free to play outside and knew when to come home in time for dinner. He had relatives nearby as well, including  lots of love and support from his grandmother and uncle.

Gramps brags, "mom always had a positive attitude.  Her glass was always half full  and she was always looking at the 'bright side of life."  That philosophy  and her passion of reading certainly influenced Gramps and his interest in writing.  It's clearly stayed with him even today because he continues to write and read to  his 6 grandchildren.

"Mom would remind us regularly that we were very fortunate and had a good life, but that we can't forget other people. This world is hard and she knew it," remarks Gramps.  Faye had learned many life lessons from her paternal grandmother who lost her husband suddenly when he was only 49. She was left  to raise her  children  on her own, including Fay's dad. She also raised her nephew who had also lost his parents. But her grandmother was always smiling regardless of her hardships.

Gramps Jeffrey is very concerned about the different parenting styles  today. Most concerns him most and feels is most important for every child is 'one on one attention' from the parent. Gramps feels so blessed to have had such a devoted mother, and hopes that parents still take the time to put the phone down, turn the computer off and just sit and read or spend that precious time with your children. 

Gramps' mom gave him such a sense of security. "We could always go home and feel secure, you felt love, you felt protected," remarks Gramps about his mom. One of his mom's favorite quotes was "when you love, you will teach others how to love."

Gramps Jeffrey is truly committed to sharing this message. He's got every little child on his mind in hopes that they get all the loving that they truly deserve.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

Now, SHLTMM is also available on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoUWxgQECqrMqI1ylVH9Dpw

Not a happy person as an adult, "I was a pathological procrastinator" says Segal. After years of therapy, she came to understand that she wanted to be happy.  She didn't want to stay in that place any longer and wanted to move forward.

There are many things that Lorraine's mother taught her, including things that she would have to unlearn. Fran, my guest's mother, scrutinized her daughter for everything including her looks/the way she dressed from a very young age, to who she socialized with and her writing. It's taken decades for Lorraine to undo the negative criticism.

Having grown up in an agnostic household, and after years of therapy, Lorraine believes "it's possible to establish a spiritual connection. Just like any relationship, you have to take the time to be kind, communicate, trust and be consistent."  Lorraine shares stories of her "Goddess Can." To her it's a process of letting her fears and doubts go to someone else who can help her solve them. One of her favorite sayings is "Trust the Goddess."

She's learned quite a bit over the years, including to NOT blame  her parents any longer.  "Some people get stuck on blaming their parents for everything," continues Segal. What struck her most was that she "had to change her way of thinking  and if I stayed in the blame mode, I'd never get what I wanted."

Not to lay blame, but she was given misinformation from her mother who had in turn been given misinformation from generations before. Sympathy, compassion and understanding that her mom did the best she could, has helped her free herself from her mother's grip. 

From my guest's LinkedIn page:

"Conflict at work can feel dreadfully uncomfortable! But, navigating conflict skillfully for yourself and others is a totally learnable skill." Ms. Segal teaches these skills at Sonoma State University. You can contact her through LinkedIn or visit her website https://ConflictRemedy.com for more information, or to sign up for my e-newsletter.

Here we are in the 21st century, and Ukraine is under attack.  Certainly not plausible, but clearly possible. What makes this all the more difficult is the fact that Anya and her mom have many relatives still in the Ukraine today.  They've set up group chats on their phones to make sure that they can all stay in touch with updates regarding their safety and where-a-bouts.

The rich Ukrainian culture has played a significant role in my guest's life.  She attended the Ukrainian Cultural Center of NJ in Whippany, as a child growing up. She and her sibling, studied the language, traditions, history, etc. Anya also raised her own children  with the same ideation that their Ukrainian culture was very important and they too had to learn and understand the significance  of these traditions.  

In 1949, Mariyka's  family was sponsored by a German family and they were able to move to the US. However,  they moved to Wisconsin.  They often felt isolated. There was no family close by, yet they held on to their values, language and traditions. It was vital that they remember all that they had been through and because of their beliefs and strength they survived.

On the contrary, Anya's father, as a child moved directly to the lower east side of Manhattan with his family and were immersed in a rich Ukrainian culture 24/7. They had full support from their neighbors and community which helped them overcome their longing for their homeland.

The same patriotism  still exists today as it did long ago, when both mom and dad arrived in the United States and held utmost respect and longing for Ukraine. That's why Anya says of her relatives still in Ukraine today, "they are scared but there is not a single doubt in their minds that they need to stay. They love their country and they will fight to defend it."  They large family photo is from a 2011 trip to Ukraine with her mother and children to visit part of their immediate family still living there.

After working decades in Corporate America, at JP Morgan, Anya now works at a benchmarking organization helping businesses grow at The Learning Forum. Currently, she is on the Board of Directors for the Ukrainian Cultural Center as well  as fulfilling her role as Administrative Director at the School of Ukrainian Studies.

The Ukrainian American Cultural Center just outside Morristown, NJ  (https://uaccnj.org/)

is accepting donations for their humanitarian drive to send much needed supplies to Ukraine. You can find the full list of goods, including nonperishable food, clothing, blankets, warm clothing, etc at the link above.

 Anya ended this episode with a phrase that Ukrainian's are repeatedly using "Glory to Ukraine. Glory to the heroes."

Thank you for listening and thank you for contributing to aid the Ukrainians.

 

 

 

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Here we are in the 21st century, and Ukraine is under attack.  Certainly not plausible, but clearly possible. What makes this all the more difficult is the fact that Anya and her mom have many relatives still in the Ukraine today.  They've set up group chats on their phones to make sure that they can all stay in touch with updates regarding their safety and where-a-bouts.

The rich Ukrainian culture has played a significant role in my guest's life.  She attended the Ukrainian Cultural Center of NJ in Whippany, as a child growing up. She and her sibling, studied the language, traditions, history, etc. Anya also raised her own children  with the same ideation that their Ukrainian culture was very important and they too had to learn and understand the significance  of these traditions.  

In 1949, Mariyka's  family was sponsored by a German family and they were able to move to the US. However,  they moved to Wisconsin.  They often felt isolated. There was no family close by, yet they held on to their values, language and traditions. It was vital that they remember all that they had been through and because of their beliefs and strength they survived.

On the contrary, Anya's father, as a child moved directly to the lower east side of Manhattan with his family and were immersed in a rich Ukrainian culture 24/7. They had full support from their neighbors and community which helped them overcome their longing for their homeland.

The same patriotism  still exists today as it did long ago, when both mom and dad arrived in the United States and held utmost respect and longing for Ukraine. That's why Anya says of her relatives still in Ukraine today, "they are scared but there is not a single doubt in their minds that they need to stay. They love their country and they will fight to defend it."  They large family photo is from a 2011 trip to Ukraine with her mother and children to visit part of their immediate family still living there.

After working decades in Corporate America, at JP Morgan, Anya now works at a benchmarking organization helping businesses grow at The Learning Forum. Currently, she is on the Board of Directors for the Ukrainian Cultural Center as well  as fulfilling her role as Administrative Director at the School of Ukrainian Studies.

The Ukrainian American Cultural Center just outside Morristown, NJ  (https://uaccnj.org/)

is accepting donations for their humanitarian drive to send much needed supplies to Ukraine. You can find the full list of goods, including nonperishable food, clothing, blankets, warm clothing, etc at the link above.

 Anya ended this episode with a phrase that Ukrainian's are repeatedly using "Glory to Ukraine. Glory to the heroes."

Thank you for listening and thank you for contributing to aid the Ukrainians.

 

 

 

"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.

]]> The Iron Will Of Ukrainian Women with Guest Anya Tomko anya tomko, jackie tantillo, Should Have Listened to My Mother 00:31:36 "My mother is my rock" shares Anya Tomko, my guest on this special episode of SHLTMM. Anya is Ukrainian American and both of her parents fled western Ukraine during WWII. Both parents spent time in US supported displaced person camps in Germany and both mom and dad arrived in the United States in 1949, one month apart, at 7 and 11 years old respectively. They didn't meet until they were in graduate school and the rest as they say is history. "My mother is my rock" shares Anya Tomko, my guest on this special episode of SHLTMM.

Congratulations again Julie. She is also a Gen X mom.  Generation X is  the generation after the 'baby boomers'-mid 1960's to early 1980's, and her findings may not be too surprising.

As a parent, I've often told my boys to get off their phones and/or computer for many reasons.  The worst being social media and the damning effect it can have on ones self confidence.  In times of need, one often thinks that reaching out to friends is the smartest and safest solution, but it doesn't always workout that way.  The same holds true for adults. One has to be smart and think outside the box when trying to find new friends or different ways to gather socially.

Moms are human and they have needs too, especially during these trying times of lockdown. Kids are struggling with virtual schooling, parents are either out of work or all working from home. Add a pandemic dog to the mix, so now you essentially have an additional new baby to take care of and train on top of everything else. All of this can lead to chaos in the home.

So a number of mom's sought solace on social media and admit to  becoming more lonely and depress. It didn't fulfill their needs the way they had hoped.  That's not to say that all social media is bad, you just have to find the right fit your you.  Seeing others out and about, carrying on and having fun during these past two years while you're at home doing  'the right and smart thing' can be upsetting. Jargon is spot on when saying "we should be prioritizing friendships. She continues, "research shows how important friendships are to physical and mental health."

Julie has a number of wonderful suggestions on how to meet up with friends and make new ones during these trying times.  I'm sure some of her suggestions will help you and give you a different perspective  about how to truly use this powerful tool as social media to your benefit. And she suggests "don't be afraid to show your vulnerability. Ask for what you want and sometimes you must take the initiative."

I'm Going To Tell You The Truth" with Guest Dr. Joseph Garcia My guest, Dr. Joseph Garcia, was speaking to me from  the Pacific Northwest. As he said, "I'm 15 miles south of Canada and 6 miles in from the water (Pacific Ocean)."

Emma was born and raised in Alabama. She moved up North to Milwaukee and started her family in her 40's.  Joseph is so proud of all his mom's accomplishments and is overwhelmed at times by the number of lives she touched.  One of the things that impressed Joseph the most, is that "I never saw my mother get angry, ever in my life."  She was sure to never raise her voice at home, because the look of disappointment  was way more effective than any shouting  could possibly be.

"Son, you're going to have to do  twice as much, to get half as far," was one of Emma's most memorable expressions. She was trying to prepare her mixed race adopted son for the real world.   In the 1950's, it could be challenging for people of color to find a significant job to help support the family.    

Apparently Joseph didn't really have any interest in school as a teen. "It wasn't as important as my social life", say's Joseph.   "My mother would often say "son I know you can do better, you have to decide to do that.  Then she'd walk away."  My guest continues, "children of color were not directed toward the college prep courses back then. But I took advantage of shop class, etc. I learned how to build a house."

It wasn't until  seeing the rest of the world that Joseph realized how special his mother was and how fortunate he was growing up.

Because Dr. Garcia was adopted and because he was mixed race, he was often bullied and teased by his classmates.   HIs mom wanted to help Joseph be resilient to this intimidation so she would say to her son,  "yeah you're more than one race. We picked a child who had the best qualities of all the races put together into one child."  And Joseph's direct response to these pests was " "yeah my mom chose me. Your parents are stuck with you!"

To this day, my guest is still shocked by the hundreds of friends and former students came to his mother's funeral when she passed at 99 years old. "They flew in from all over the country to pay their respect. She influenced so many people."

More of Emma's expressions:

"I'll rest when I die"

"I'm too old to be polite. I'm going to tell you the truth"

"Moss doesn't grow on me and I don't want it to grow on you"

"You always have to do something before you can do something else. AND there's always somethin"

"Son, don't pick something up before you have a place to put it down-that's not just stuff, that's people, that's things in your life,  that's everything"

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

]]> Tue, 15 Feb 2022 03:02:59 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (dr. joseph garcia, jackie tantillo, should have listened to my mother) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/im-too-old-to-be-polite-im-going-to-tell-you-the-truth-with-guest-dr-joseph-garcia-HgVpHUVG My guest, Dr. Joseph Garcia, was speaking to me from  the Pacific Northwest. As he said, "I'm 15 miles south of Canada and 6 miles in from the water (Pacific Ocean)."

Emma was born and raised in Alabama. She moved up North to Milwaukee and started her family in her 40's.  Joseph is so proud of all his mom's accomplishments and is overwhelmed at times by the number of lives she touched.  One of the things that impressed Joseph the most, is that "I never saw my mother get angry, ever in my life."  She was sure to never raise her voice at home, because the look of disappointment  was way more effective than any shouting  could possibly be.

"Son, you're going to have to do  twice as much, to get half as far," was one of Emma's most memorable expressions. She was trying to prepare her mixed race adopted son for the real world.   In the 1950's, it could be challenging for people of color to find a significant job to help support the family.    

Apparently Joseph didn't really have any interest in school as a teen. "It wasn't as important as my social life", say's Joseph.   "My mother would often say "son I know you can do better, you have to decide to do that.  Then she'd walk away."  My guest continues, "children of color were not directed toward the college prep courses back then. But I took advantage of shop class, etc. I learned how to build a house."

It wasn't until  seeing the rest of the world that Joseph realized how special his mother was and how fortunate he was growing up.

Because Dr. Garcia was adopted and because he was mixed race, he was often bullied and teased by his classmates.   HIs mom wanted to help Joseph be resilient to this intimidation so she would say to her son,  "yeah you're more than one race. We picked a child who had the best qualities of all the races put together into one child."  And Joseph's direct response to these pests was " "yeah my mom chose me. Your parents are stuck with you!"

To this day, my guest is still shocked by the hundreds of friends and former students came to his mother's funeral when she passed at 99 years old. "They flew in from all over the country to pay their respect. She influenced so many people."

More of Emma's expressions:

"I'll rest when I die"

"I'm too old to be polite. I'm going to tell you the truth"

"Moss doesn't grow on me and I don't want it to grow on you"

"You always have to do something before you can do something else. AND there's always somethin"

"Son, don't pick something up before you have a place to put it down-that's not just stuff, that's people, that's things in your life,  that's everything"

She didn't understand how she knew things that a 4 year couldn't possibly know. It wasn't until she was older that she came to understand  that she had psychic/intuitive abilities.

"As a child, I was emotionally and verbally abused by my mother and brother," continues Strong. My mom was  Bipolar/Narcissistic  and that made the situation even complicated. 

Sarah's father didn't really play a role in her life. Now, Sarah says "he has an anti-role." "He's never been a big presence in my life.  I was a wild child as a kid and growing up. If he'd been in my life when I was young, I would have rejected him anyway."

"I have gifts including being a medium, empath, telepath & psychic & I channel the star beings, beings from other dimensions and many other beings of the light including the Ascended Masters, angels, fairies, loved ones on the other side, Jesus, Mother Mary and many more. During a session the channel is opened and guided by your spirit guides," affirms Strong.

Ms. Strong gladly professes, "my aim in life is to bring as much joy to everyone in this blessed world as I can," that comes from someone who's had a brutal childhood, made some bad choices and picked herself up again.

What's interesting about how our conversation began is that both Claire and her mother  attended Columbia High School in Maplewood, NJ and both women married their high school sweethearts, just decades apart.

Claire shares stories of the similarities of she and her mom and how much it means to her that so many people from her community still hold her mother close to their heart. Claire's mother, 'Ellie,'  was known as "The Duck Lady" in Maplewood/South Orange NJ. What she started many years ago as a simple race in a brook with plastic ducks has grown to raising tens of thousands of dollars annually for different organizations that help and support kids, ie Kiwanis, Scouts, YMCA, etc. 

Ellie's mom, Claire's maternal grandmother,  passed away when Ellie was in her 20's. When Ellie's father remarried, there was no real love between she and her step mother so she moved in with one of her favorite aunts, Aunt Fay, her birth mother's sister, who ran a preschool out of her home. Ellie had interests in nursing and/or becoming a teacher but her career was cut short when it was time to start a family. 

Claire says "she likes to dabble in a little bit of everything, just like her mom."  Claire is involved in community awareness when it comes to food insecure families. She volunteers regularly at local food pantries distributing food as well as keeping her young students involved by organizing can drives at the elementary school. As a board member for MEND, Meeting Essential Needs with Dignity, located throughout Essex County, NJ, Claire regularly sees families in need of help and like her mom, it's hard for her to say no to helping others.

Claire is the administrator of a Facebook Group, 'Habitual Gratitude 365' where she shares daily prompts of things that her multitude of followers are grateful for. Again, like her mom, and as a mother, she loves to help others in need.

Claire's mother passed away in 2013 but she's left an imprint on the community.  Claire was lucky enough to have one last phone call from her mom and she's so happy that she picked up that call.

Claire also has a  park bench in Maplewood Memorial Park, which was dedicated to her mother, by the community, nestled nicely right beside the brook where Ellie started her very first Memorial Day 'Duck Race.' That's where Claire goes on a regular basis to feel her mother's support, love and guidance.

When Ellie's father remarried, there was no real love between she and her step mother so she moved in with one of her favorite aunts, Aunt Fay, her birth mother's sister, who ran a preschool out of her home. Ellie had interests in nursing and/or becoming a teacher but her career was cut short when it was time to start a family. 

Claire says "she likes to dabble in a little bit of everything, just like her mom."  Claire is involved in community awareness when it comes to food insecure families. She volunteers regularly at local food pantries distributing food as well as keeping her young students involved by organizing can drives at the elementary school. As a board member for MEND, Meeting Essential Needs with Dignity, located throughout Essex County, NJ, Claire regularly sees families in need of help and like her mom, it's hard for her to say no to helping others.

Claire is the administrator of a Facebook Group, 'Habitual Gratitude 365' where she shares daily prompts of things that her multitude of followers are grateful for. Again, like her mom, and as a mother, she loves to help others in need.

Claire's mother passed away in 2013 but she's left an imprint on the community.  Claire was lucky enough to have one last phone call from her mom and she's so happy that she picked up that call.

Claire also has a  park bench in Maplewood Memorial Park, which was dedicated to her mother, by the community, nestled nicely right beside the brook where Ellie started her very first Memorial Day 'Duck Race.' That's where Claire goes on a regular basis to feel her mother's support, love and guidance.

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.

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)

Amazon Link: Natural Reflectors

https://www.amazon.com/Natural-Reflectors-Burnout-Engagement-Reflection-ebook/dp/B09DFNLLDW

The World Health Organization names stress as the health epidemic of the 21st Century. Slowing down not only reduces stress, but produces outcomes with a greater impact.

Natural Reflectors explores the idea of instilling, within our actions, a mindset of intentional reflection taken from the power of nature’s cycles. You will learn how a healthy process of managing one’s life has both elements of reflection and action. Find within these pages stories such as:

  • Bill Burnett from Stanford’s Design Your Life Lab explaining how we can only make good decisions when listening to both our mind and body
  • Stacy Levy, an environmental artist revealing the stories in nature that surround each of us, allowing us to see them, appreciate them, consider them, and maybe even learn from them
  • Carl Honore describing how our behavior is heavily influenced by our definition of time

If you have ever thought that there must be a better way to find meaning and purpose in your everyday life, read 

Natural Reflectors

. If you are tired of living on autopilot, or if you are seeking a greater connection with the world around you, this book offers hope.

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's 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.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

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.

"She Never Really Understood How Powerful She Was" with Guest Jean Walters. Shortly before Jean Walters' mother died, she told her daughter " I never  understood you, but I really do respect you."  That meant a lot to Jean as the two had often butted heads over the years. The challenges with her mother early on in life influenced her career and that she is thankful for.

Jean's latest book,  "The Journey From Anxiety To Peace-Practical Steps to Handle Fear, Embrace Struggle and Eliminate Worry to Become Happy and Free,"  is a joy to read and spot on.  If you are not where you want to be in your life, career, family, home, it's within you and she can help you, says Jean.

The challenges with her mother early on in life influenced her career and that she is thankful for.

Jean's latest book,  "The Journey From Anxiety To Peace-Practical Steps to Handle Fear, Embrace Struggle and Eliminate Worry to Become Happy and Free,"  is a joy to read and spot on.  If you are not where you want to be in your life, career, family, home, it's within you and she can help you, says Jean.

"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.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

By the time Gail Mitchell was a young teenager, she was already taking drawing classes at a level way beyond her years.  She pursued art through college and today she's still creating beautiful pieces which have many layers and beg you to ask questions.  She's most grateful to both her parents for their loving relationship which was proof of their commitment to each other and the family.

Ellen Mitchell, Gail's mother,  has a great sense of humor and even though she was a Long Island new correspondent and covering major news breaking stories, she always was laughing and making others laugh too.

Freedman 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.

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.

Friedman passionately emphasizes, "I love struggling moms, they're trying to heal generational trauma through their own parenting."

Ms. Friedman also provides services through  a membership program called childanxietysupport.com, for parents who are parenting anxious kids. We all know the number of anxious kids in the world today is overwhelming, especially because of the past year and a half and COVID.

"Mom is a survivor of an extremely abusive childhood.  As an abusive survivor, intimate relationships are more complicated," suggests Friedman. She continues, "mom did a lot of good things in her life and she doesn't have any more good to give."

Dawn's mother Joyce, never got to go to college and yet she always implied that she wanted Dawn to have more than she did. "She wanted me to have it better than her and she raised be to believe  that I deserved that, but at a certain point, she wanted me to stop growing perhaps because she felt left behind," Friedman sadly admits.

The family moved around quite a bit for her dad's job when Dawn was young-at least 6 times until Dawn's mom refused to move again. Within a few years, her parents divorced and Joyce negotiated a settlement for her divorce-instead of alimony, Joyce requested a certificate for a tech school-in place of alimony, Dawn's mom went to a computer school for programming.

Once school was completely and Joyce got a job, her life really turned around. She was happy again.

"Mom is the cook at Camp Warrior King, the camp that Shaun and his mom started for kids in the Atlanta metro area. The kids loved the food because Sharon was the cook.  These kids love all of these 'all you can eat' meals, often the only meal they have all day.  Some of the favorites are fried chicken, mashed potatoes, biscuits, green beans or breakfast for  dinner or Italian day, the list goes on and on.

Shaun is an entrepreneur, just like his mother. The fruit doesn't fall far from the tree. Because of Sharon's education background, she was an ideal partner for Shaun to start up this wonderful camp.

"Honeybee" is Shaun's nickname for his mother.  "She reminds me of a bee-always buzzing around."  Shaun lovingly brags "the kitchen at camp is called "Honeybee's Kitchen."

As I'm listening to one of her promo reels, I thought I heard something that sounded vaguely familiar.  On her promo reel for Lifetime Television  was my voice over  featured on at least 3 of her promos.  It turns out we had worked together back in the early to mid to late 90's and neither of us recalled meeting, let alone working together.  I was in the recording booth and she in the master control room. We were both in awe and thanking the universe for bringing us back together. This time I was interviewing Lorraine and asking her the questions.

Now on to the the real story of Lorraine and her mother Angelina. Angelina raised her only daughter, Lorraine, as a single mom after her husband left when Lorraine was only two years old. Yes, she had the help of her mother, Lorraine's grandmother, but it wasn't easy.  We all know that it's tough being a single parent.  But after seven years of being out of the work force, scared and nervous, mom went back to work taking an entry level position as an operator at a phone company at the age of 42.  Angelina had never gone to college yet retired decades later as an executive from that same company.

"My mom was a member of the Greatest Generation, she experienced the  Depression and poverty, went back to work though frightened and did all of this so my life would be easier," says Merkl. "Together we can fight over anything or standup to anyone," reflects Lorraine. 

In time, Angelina would reveal things to her daughter saying "I was holding on by a thread."  In order for Angelina to keep things organized at home,  she felt that she had to be tough and discipline her daughter.  Lorraine feels that her mom was "operating off of fear all the time." Again, it's understandable when your husband walks away and leaves you to raise your daughter .

Lorraine so admires her mother, "being apart brought us closer together," reflects Merkl. At 24 years old, after having moved out  on her own, she and her mother became friends and so enjoyed each other's company. "She was a giver, not a taker, helpful and kind.

At the time of this interview, Angelina is living with and being cared for by her daughter. She is 98 years old and suffering from dementia.  My guest has so many wonderful memories of her mother, including  advice for her to "stick up for yourself," "mom  always wanted me to be somebody who could stick up for themselves," says Lorraine.

Don't let anyone fool you. Angelina is one of 13 children of an Italian family and raised  in the Bronx, NY. She was very smart as well as being very street smart.  

"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.

"A large portion of  Grenadians still believe that 'little girls should be seen and not heard' and girls should concentrate on domestics and house keeping," continues my guest. Coincidentally, that 'saying' about little girls is an English proverb.   Grenada was colonized by the English from 1763 to 1974 and then by the French from 1979 to 1983 so they still have a residual effect of these different ruling cultures.  "House, car, land," those were the presupposed priorities for a young married woman.

I love that Moksha say "mothers are the culture keepers," and it's so very true. What would we do without our mom's telling us stories about the generations before us. There was definitely some conflict between Moksha and her mom because my guest often questioned things from a very young age. In particular, she had questions about spirituality and religion which she explained was way too complicated to cover in one episode of SHLTMM.

An overprotective mother believes she's doing what's best for her daughter, but not so in Moksha's case. It created more conflict around the house and that wasn't beneficial to anyone.  What seemed to be the hardest part was her lack of freedom.  She was never a daughter to sneak out at night, instead she just told her parents that she was going out.  She just knew who she was and what she needed out of life from a young age. And when it came to Moksha dating or meeting new male friends, that was definitely NOT going to happen based on her parents beliefs.

Cecelia's mom  always believed in the benefits of higher education, so she continues to study to learn and improve  her  opportunities with her own business, "Celebration Cakes." With a high school education she began different jobs but keep in mind "girls were supposed to stay home with domestic work,"Moksha says. It was the boys, who continued with school and were able to take jobs.

Moksha is dialed into nutrition/diet and wellbeing and it all began with her mother's knowledge and love for native foods in Grenada. Food is an important part of the culture and family in Grenada and traditions are handed down generation to generation.  Moksha's business "Sovereign Eats,"  is  all about food and it's healing properties. It's unfortunate, but Moksha feels that so much of the cultural ideas of her home land have been left behind.  She's hoping to keep those traditions alive by sharing her knowledge through Sovereign Eats.

When asked if Moksha thought her mom had regrets about her limitations as a young girl, she said "yes, absolutely, most likely based on her mom's past and boundaries put on her when she was a young girl."

Check out Moksha's Sovereign Eats website at 'sovereigneats.com.'

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.

]]> Tue, 26 Oct 2021 02:47:31 +0000 SHLTMMpodcast@gmail.com (Moksha, jackie tantillo, should have listened to my mother) https://shltmm.simplecast.com/episodes/host-jackie-tantillo-mothers-are-the-culture-keepers-with-guest-moksha-VvUtIS7e "Grenada is  very traditional" says my guest, Moksha, who was born and raised on the island and now lives in the US. "A large portion of  Grenadians still believe that 'little girls should be seen and not heard' and girls should concentrate on domestics and house keeping," continues my guest. Coincidentally, that 'saying' about little girls is an English proverb.   Grenada was colonized by the English from 1763 to 1974 and then by the French from 1979 to 1983 so they still have a residual effect of these different ruling cultures.  "House, car, land," those were the presupposed priorities for a young married woman.

I love that Moksha say "mothers are the culture keepers," and it's so very true. What would we do without our mom's telling us stories about the generations before us. There was definitely some conflict between Moksha and her mom because my guest often questioned things from a very young age. In particular, she had questions about spirituality and religion which she explained was way too complicated to cover in one episode of SHLTMM.

An overprotective mother believes she's doing what's best for her daughter, but not so in Moksha's case. It created more conflict around the house and that wasn't beneficial to anyone.  What seemed to be the hardest part was her lack of freedom.  She was never a daughter to sneak out at night, instead she just told her parents that she was going out.  She just knew who she was and what she needed out of life from a young age. And when it came to Moksha dating or meeting new male friends, that was definitely NOT going to happen based on her parents beliefs.

Cecelia's mom  always believed in the benefits of higher education, so she continues to study to learn and improve  her  opportunities with her own business, "Celebration Cakes." With a high school education she began different jobs but keep in mind "girls were supposed to stay home with domestic work,"Moksha says. It was the boys, who continued with school and were able to take jobs.

Moksha is dialed into nutrition/diet and wellbeing and it all began with her mother's knowledge and love for native foods in Grenada. Food is an important part of the culture and family in Grenada and traditions are handed down generation to generation.  Moksha's business "Sovereign Eats,"  is  all about food and it's healing properties. It's unfortunate, but Moksha feels that so much of the cultural ideas of her home land have been left behind.  She's hoping to keep those traditions alive by sharing her knowledge through Sovereign Eats.

When asked if Moksha thought her mom had regrets about her limitations as a young girl, she said "yes, absolutely, most likely based on her mom's past and boundaries put on her when she was a young girl."

Check out Moksha's Sovereign Eats website at 'sovereigneats.com.'

 

"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.

Born and raised on the Caribbean island Country, Grenada, just north of Trinidad and Tobago, her relationship with the earth and indigenous foods of Grenada are still dear to her heart.

It's actually one field that he hasn't tried professionally, but would love to some day.  Thomas is a Global Professional Speaker and a CEO Presentation Skills Coach. In case you haven't heard about his crazy memory abilities,  he's also an International Grandmaster of Memory, broken Guinness record for reciting Pi to 22,500 digits, became US Memory Champion and so much more.  

From the age of 4, David recalls the nightly sexual abuse  he suffered  from his alcoholic mother, Gillian and then the years of physical abuse from his step-father.  David had a younger brother to protect, so he kept this secret to himself to be certain that his younger brother would not be exposed to any of it.

Unfortunately, David's mother died in her early 50's, almost 21 years since the time of this recording. She died at a young age due to an alcohol induced heart attack.  David was happy that he had put  his neglect behind him in order to move forward prior to his mother's death. They had rekindled their relationship.

 As if the abuse wasn't enough, David also attempted suicide twice, but was not successful.  When asked if this was life changing or a sign that he was meant to live a long life, his response was,  "no, not at all, it meant that I was just terrible at trying to kill myself." Again, gallows humor, but it's easy for him to make light looking back so many years later.

David  wanted to help others who had suffered abuse under the hand of loved ones, so he wrote what turned out to be a #1 bestselling book in the UK, "Tell Me Why Mummy"- An inspirational  true story of one man overcoming enormous odds including sexual abuse from his alcoholic mother to choose his own path in life and become  and become a truly exceptional human being.

Thomas says "you only have 3 choices in life as far as moving on after an abusive, challenging upbringing-

  1. You carry on living with your problems, but it will eventually take you down.
  2. You remove it
  3. Or you manage it"

Therapy and researching and writing his book help free himself from the horrors of his childhood.

Today, Kevin Jerome is the proud owner of four companies, a far cry from what  he thought his future would be when he was a teen.  " A kid who grew up in a 2 bedroom apartment, living with 14 people, evicted twice as a teen," says Jerome, " I'm  a true example of how you can turn your life around."

At a young age, Kevin  taught himself to read and eventually how to drive out of necessity.  He realized that no one else was going to help him, so he better learn on his own.  It's that kind of determination and foresight that helped him become who he is today.

My guest is curious as to  why "so many of us allow our past to hold us down?"   Experiencing anxiety and insecurity because of changing schools and moving repeatedly as a teen, Kevin would now tell his younger self that "it's better to  try, take chances and possibly fail, than not trying at all. But again, don't let your past define you. That was a very trying time for the young Jerome but he was determined to not have it define him.

Kevin and his mother, Marie, have a loving relationship. However, Kevin understands that there were certain circumstances that got in the way when he was growing up- she was preoccupied with other family matters when Kevin needed her most.

One thing that Kevin has be certain about  "I've always wanted to be rich in mind-emotionally, spiritually and financially."  He says his religious background played a part in his life philosophies, but it's his spiritual path that grounded him most.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

At a young age, Kevin  taught himself to read and eventually how to drive out of necessity.  He realized that no one else was going to help him, so he better learn on his own.  It's that kind of determination and foresight that helped him become who he is today.

My guest is curious as to  why "so many of us allow our past to hold us down?"   Experiencing anxiety and insecurity because of changing schools and moving repeatedly as a teen, Kevin would now tell his younger self that "it's better to  try, take chances and possibly fail, than not trying at all. But again, don't let your past define you. That was a very trying time for the young Jerome but he was determined to not have it define him.

Kevin and his mother, Marie, have a loving relationship. However, Kevin understands that there were certain circumstances that got in the way when he was growing up- she was preoccupied with other family matters when Kevin needed her most.

One thing that Kevin has be certain about  "I've always wanted to be rich in mind-emotionally, spiritually and financially."  He says his religious background played a part in his life philosophies, but it's his spiritual path that grounded him most.

The only sibling to attend college, Father Jim completed his undergraduate and 2 graduate degrees from Seton Hall University, South Orange, NJ and currently is an adjunct professor at said school. He was loved by his doting mother who often protected him from his older brother's rough housing as you can imagine. 

Nana, his maternal grandmother, lived with the family many years and was also  an integral part of Father Jim's cherished childhood.   The two often listened to music together which is  one of the many reasons my guest has such a love for music of the 40's, 50's and more.

Often referred to as the Brady Bunch,  Alice, their grandmother, mom and dad and the kids, boy girl/boy girl birth order, etc often spent evenings together watching tv and listening to music after enjoying a big family meal together.  Those are the memories that Father Jim reflects upon the most with a sense of humor that abounds.  "It wasn't always perfect, but I wouldn't change anything for the world.  

An avid piano player and singer,  Father Jim performs regularly for his congregation and his community.  Music is a huge part of his life and so much of that passion stems from his childhood, his nana and his mother, Renea.

Just a few years prior to this interview, Father Jim had a massive heart attack while driving on the highway.  And yet some how he miraculously survived  the "widow maker"-he needed  quintuple bypass surgery-five arteries were completely blocked. He professes that his faith had something to do with saving his life, giving him another chance to help those in need.

Father Jim shares many wonderful stories of his priesthood and how proud his mother was of his vocation.

Ritzy says, "because of  all of our limitations, my mom and I were always the underdog."  Because of this philosophy, Ritzy says she's a supporter of  culture, justice and diversity, a topic she often discusses on her podcast.  She always speaks up for those less fortunate and don't have a voice.

Because of the choices her mom made, Periwinkle is thriving in part because of therapy and wants everyone to know that there is help out there.  "If we share our stories, we can help each other and make some real change,"says the WTYM podcast host.

"My mother was sweet, loving and a caring person who suffered a lot," says  Periwinkle. She thinks that her mother would be very proud of her and all that she's accomplished.

Periwinkle says "she is her mother's vengeance."

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

So at 6 years old, Kristina began to write books and stories and she's still writing today.

Looking back, Kristina respects and appreciates her mother's kindness, patience and calming voice. Kristina also cherishes her grandmother's passion for reading. To this day, Kristina recalls seeing her grandmother's bookshelves lined with books. "My grandmother would read and entire book in one day," says Cappetta. That love of literature, certainly came from her grandmother and she's passed that passion down to her own children.

Kristina seems to connect more easily with people who have  close relationship's with their mother. She says, "the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree." Still having her mom close by geographically and emotionally is so important and she loves that her children have a strong relationship with their grandmother.

Looking Back At S1E47 Her dream was to become and archeologist, but instead she became a bacteriologist. As a scientist in the 1930's, one of Alice Attride's most memorable experiences  was when antibiotics became available and cured so many. She loved science, her children and she  loved helping neighbors and people of her community. Alice went out of her way regularly to help anyone in need.

Bill loved his childhood. Both parents encouraged stimulating the mind and the heart, structure and responsibility and fostering curiosity. Because of his upbringing, Bill loves to study and learn- so much so that as a young boy he would read the  encyclopedias A through Z and then  start all over again.

Bill feels truly blessed for her firm yet quiet reassuring love.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

As a scientist in the 1930's, one of Alice Attride's most memorable experiences  was when antibiotics became available and cured so many. She loved science, her children and she  loved helping neighbors and people of her community. Alice went out of her way regularly to help anyone in need.

Bill loved his childhood. Both parents encouraged stimulating the mind and the heart, structure and responsibility and fostering curiosity. Because of his upbringing, Bill loves to study and learn- so much so that as a young boy he would read the  encyclopedias A through Z and then  start all over again.

Bill feels truly blessed for her firm yet quiet reassuring love.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Looking Back At Episode S1E29 Being the local Doctor and the Doctor's wife was a saving grace for         Hanni's family. Shortly after the German Army entered Vienna in 1938, the family started the paperwork in trying to immigrate to Massachusetts.

It took quite a long time for them to secure all the paperwork and a job in Boston for her father, but shortly there after they were on their journey to America.

The children's book "My Two Cities" by Robin Mayers Stein with Hanni Myers has been written in verse so children  and teens can learn of the experience of this one family. What was Hanni's childhood like as an immigrant who didn't speak English when she arrived in  America . They overcame many obstacles but never gave up hope for themselves and many others

No matter how challenging, Hanni's mother and father were able to help 17 families immigrate to the United States to freedom. Some were friends or relatives, others were not. But the family never stopped trying to help others left behind in Europe.

Looking Back At Episode S1E27 "There's a lot of waking up going on with woman", says Rosjke.  "Women, were expected to be  emotionally mute and not have any needs of their own."  It's sad but true, too many generations of the women caring for the family and home did not have a voice of their own.  This is one of the main causes for the miscommunication between  mother and  daughter.

Ms. Hasseldine goes on to say "to understand the mother-daughter relationship, you really need to understand how women are treated in society."

For the most part, mothers did the best they could, with what they were given. But "women have more power than what they think, "it's what we do with what we've been given" that  really matters.  

The Huff Post says, "Rosjke Hasseldine is the world's pre-eminent     mother-daughter relationship expert with over 20 years listening to women and girls from around the world talk about their lives and relationships. Rosjke is the creator of the Mother-Daughter Coaching Model which uncovers and explains the hidden dynamics between mothers and daughters."

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Looking back at S1E26 When your mom makes all the little things in life magical, who needs the big things? Jen Hale's mother, Nancy  taught music lessons in the evening and was home taking care of the 3 girls during the day.  This week's guest, Jen Hale, recalls her mom's spirit, wisdom, patience and compassion in moments when not  every mother and/or father could -the moments when a parent is filled with fear for their child's future.   However,  Nancy believed that "there is a bigger plan in life and you have to do what's in your heart and not worry about what others think."

Jen definitely has her hands full with her  11 kids but she wouldn't trade it for the world. Regardless of all the crazy comments people say when seeing the family all together, she couldn't be happier and more appreciative of all the little things her mother taught her.

Check out Jen's podcast "Party of 13" anchor.fm/jennifer-hale

"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.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Her parents met while working at John's Hopkins University in Baltimore, Md. Once Anya was born, the family moved onto Baton Rouge, La. where  mom and dad both got jobs as  writing professors at Louisiana State University. This allowed them to write their own works as well as complete editorial work for others. They taught at  LSU for  two decades.  

Moira Crone, Anya's mother, wrote several fictional novels, often incorporating her childhood memories and experiences from  North Carolina . Since her retirement from LSU, Moira, an accomplished visual artist, loves creating and hosting 'Art/Zoom' classes with her granddaughters. She is also a natural psychic and her art truly reflects her connection to her mystic beliefs.

 Anya has been working  long and hard from a young age and is very accomplished, often keeping others, especially children's issues close at hand. She's  reported on  everything from technology and education, standardized testing, too much screen time for kids, high costs of education and much, much more.

Check out her most recent book, "The Art of Screen Time: How Your Family Can Balance Digital Media and Real Life." Look for her upcoming book  entitled "The Stolen Year"-the year lost to the pandemic.

Anya is compassionate, steadfast and dedicated to helping  parents and children overcome their educational, emotional and social challenges.  She works tirelessly  researching to help solve these problems that we all face.

Best of luck Anya. It was an absolute please hearing  about your childhood and your relationship with your mother.

"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.

Her parents met while working at John's Hopkins University in Baltimore, Md. Once Anya was born, the family moved onto Baton Rouge, La. where  mom and dad both got jobs as  writing professors at Louisiana State University. This allowed them to write their own works as well as complete editorial work for others. They taught at  LSU for  two decades.  

Moira Crone, Anya's mother, wrote several fictional novels, often incorporating her childhood memories and experiences from  North Carolina . Since her retirement from LSU, Moira, an accomplished visual artist, loves creating and hosting 'Art/Zoom' classes with her granddaughters. She is also a natural psychic and her art truly reflects her connection to her mystic beliefs.

 Anya has been working  long and hard from a young age and is very accomplished, often keeping others, especially children's issues close at hand. She's  reported on  everything from technology and education, standardized testing, too much screen time for kids, high costs of education and much, much more.

Check out her most recent book, "The Art of Screen Time: How Your Family Can Balance Digital Media and Real Life." Look for her upcoming book  entitled "The Stolen Year"-the year lost to the pandemic.

Anya is compassionate, steadfast and dedicated to helping  parents and children overcome their educational, emotional and social challenges.  She works tirelessly  researching to help solve these problems that we all face.

Best of luck Anya. It was an absolute please hearing  about your childhood and your relationship with your mother.

"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.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

"Because there was no real 'dad' figure in  the home, family and friends often helped out to fill in as a father figure including  my Uncle Johnny," say Jones.  There were often many people willing to help Doris and her family because Doris was always helping others.  

Doris was insistent that Jay from a young age, "treat others with respect, do the right thing, and be honest. My mom would always say "watch out for Karma."

Jay would hate to ever break his mother's heart. "I want to continue to make her proud. I want to keep helping others  like she helped so many struggling  families." Jay goes on to say "it's all about love."

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

One of Lisa's fondest memories of her mother was sitting down together and having tea and talking about anything and everything including boys. "You have to look at the way a guy behaves and not just what he says" her mom would say. 

Lisa always felt that her mother was completely devoted to raising her and her adopted brother Peter.  "She was always very available," recalls Lisa. 

Her parents were very different and she understood how her mom would say "opposites attract." Yet Lisa's mom was a very strong woman who guided her husband and they made important work/family related decisions together.

Lisa established a relationship with her birth mother when she was 27 years old and has a budding relationship with her step sister.

However, seeing that this podcast is about the relationship between my guest and the story of their mother, Lisa was very specific about telling the story of 'her mother,' the woman who loved her and raised her. Rosemarie  passed away in 2000 and Lisa misses her dearly.

 

 

"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.

Allison Sara, Allison's mother, "was all about lightness, air, love, encouragement and positivity," says Allison. "She let me live my life. She never really went out of her way to advise me or critique my life, and I respect her for that." Allison continues by saying "my mother cultivated independence in her children and she encouraged us to always tell the truth." 

"Honesty and integrity"  were essential characteristics for her and her family. As Allison says "she walked the walk." However, as optimistic and lighthearted as she was, she was struggling with an unhappy and difficult husband who was an alcoholic. And as one can expect, the dad's drinking had an effect on the whole family, especially the kids.

It wasn't until Allison's mother found Al Anon, the support organization for anyone who's concerned about someone with a drinking problem, that she found her new sense of self esteem. "My mom started standing up to my dad because of all that Al Anon taught her. Eventually, my day had to change. he had to adapt to her self confidence."  Sara was a proud member of Al Anon for 35 years.

I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with Professor Allison and I look forward to continuing our conversation in the near future.

 

Professor Scott Allison has authored numerous books, including Heroes and Heroic Leadership. His other books include Reel Heroes, Conceptions of Leadership, Frontiers in Spiritual Leadership, and the Handbook of Heroism. His work has appeared in USA Today, National Public Radio, the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, Slate Magazine, MSNBC, CBS, Psychology Today, and the Christian Science Monitor. He has received Richmond's Distinguished Educator Award and the Virginia Council of Higher Education's Outstanding Faculty Award.

Looking Back At Episode #S1 E20 Dawn and I met in college and I'm so glad we got to spend some time together to talk about her mother, Erma Jean O'Connor. Erma Jean grew up on a farm in upstate New York.  She was one of seven children, 6 girls and 1 boy and she had a wonderful sense of humor and loved to laugh.

A no nonsense woman, Erma Jean's 3 kids were her top priority.  After time as a victim of abuse and an alcoholic husband, she left  her husband and moved back in with her parents.

At 4 years old, Dawn helped her mom as she struggled with all the challenges of being a single parent and having to go out and find a job.

Overcoming obstacles  and jumping over hurdles was the mainstay for many years but the years were filled with lots of love and laughter and Dawn  says her mom "was her most important being."

"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.

SHLTMM TESTIMONIAL GINA KUNADIAN JUNE 18, 2024

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

At the age of 15, Precious moved into her grandparents house and under their loving roof, she began to heal.

Her paternal grandmother, also named Precious (Delores Williams), taught her daily affirmations for positive  reinforcement. The teen was never allowed to wander out in the street not left at home alone.She began to do well in school and eventually went to Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia with the support as the very first recipient of a Bill and Melinda Gates scholarship.  And Precious didn't stop her education at the undergraduate level.  She went on to get her law degree.  And the rest is history.

That was an unfortunate yet fortunate life changing experience, one that Marie Manuchehri and her family have built their life's path  around to this day.

Marie believes her intuitive abilities go back a few generations beginning with her great grandmother who was  Native American. To this day, Marie helps clients all over the world using her extensive background as an oncology nurse, energy intuitive, energy medicine practitioner,etc.

You can listen to/stream  "Where Energy and Medicine Meet" , Marie's weekly radio show Thursdays at noon EST/9amPST on KKNW 1150 AM . It's one hour of healing, positive suggestions and information about chakras and 'spirit guides'. Yes did you know we all have spirit guides!  I highly recommend Marie's book "Intuitive-Self Healing-Achieve Balance And Wellness Through The Body's Energy Center"

Marie's mother raised the children on her own after a number of years and studied and worked as  a "Re-evaluation Counselor .  Her mother was always very positive and  assured the kids that things were going to work out just fine, even during tough times.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

That was an unfortunate yet fortunate life changing experience, one that Marie Manuchehri and her family have built their life's path  around to this day.

Marie believes her intuitive abilities go back a few generations beginning with her great grandmother who was  Native American. To this day, Marie helps clients all over the world using her extensive background as an oncology nurse, energy intuitive, energy medicine practitioner,etc.

You can listen to/stream  "Where Energy and Medicine Meet" , Marie's weekly radio show Thursdays at noon EST/9amPST on KKNW 1150 AM . It's one hour of healing, positive suggestions and information about chakras and 'spirit guides'. Yes did you know we all have spirit guides!  I highly recommend Marie's book "Intuitive-Self Healing-Achieve Balance And Wellness Through The Body's Energy Center"

Marie's mother raised the children on her own after a number of years and studied and worked as  a "Re-evaluation Counselor .  Her mother was always very positive and  assured the kids that things were going to work out just fine, even during tough times. And that was  always very comforting to the kids.

"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.

Her mother insisted she leave the farming life to her younger brothers and go to college. Within a few years, she was one of 5 women to graduate  from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Helen completed her teaching degree. Though she never taught in a classroom, she did teach her daughter that women are smart, they can work and raise children  at the same time.

Helen got a second shot at life later on  and said "there's nothing you can't do at 60 that you can at 40." She embraced a new career and was attentive and  fond of her grandson.

Once she recognized that her daughter was a strong and confident woman, she could relax and enjoy life. Cate says about her mom "she had a wonderful personality and great fashion sense and people were drawn to her."

He didn't like school. Erik's mother, Gerri, was very clear from the beginning  on how exactly he was to get through high school. As an english teacher, she knew the benefits of a great education and wasn't about to let him slip through her fingers. Nor was she going to take any part in his decision to not get out of bed, which meant, she wasn't going to be responsible for him not graduating. She was very specific when she said she wouldn't be attending any parent teacher conferences or discussions when Erik had issues at school. It was his responsibility. If he had to repeat a grade, "he'd have no one to blame but himself."

That said, Erik and his mother were extremely close. She was a devoted  and committed mother.  She found the joy and humor if life. Having a role model like his mom has helped him raising his two daughters.  Erik says one important lesson he learned from his mom is  "she was present. She was not 'unavailable' when she was physically present." With all the distractions that we have in life now, this one memory of his mother really helps him with his girls. They are his priority when they're together.

Looking back, Erik recalls how his parents fostered self reliance and individuality. His mother taught english at night to help others who wanted to empower themselves.   She often worked with bartenders, cashiers and workers who hoped to get a business degree and  change their lives.

He didn't like school. Erik's mother, Gerri, was very clear from the beginning  on how exactly he was to get through high school. As an english teacher, she knew the benefits of a great education and wasn't about to let him slip through her fingers. Nor was she going to take any part in his decision to not get out of bed, which meant, she wasn't going to be responsible for him not graduating. She was very specific when she said she wouldn't be attending any parent teacher conferences or discussions when Erik had issues at school. It was his responsibility. If he had to repeat a grade, "he'd have no one to blame but himself."

That said, Erik and his mother were extremely close. She was a devoted  and committed mother.  She found the joy and humor if life. Having a role model like his mom has helped him raising his two daughters.  Erik says one important lesson he learned from his mom is  "she was present. She was not 'unavailable' when she was physically present." With all the distractions that we have in life now, this one memory of his mother really helps him with his girls. They are his priority when they're together.

Looking back, Erik recalls how his parents fostered self reliance and individuality. His mother taught english at night to help others who wanted to empower themselves.   She often worked with bartenders, cashiers and workers who hoped to get a business degree and  change their lives.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Gordon Firemark certainly had enough credentials for a very successful career. Yet apparently it wasn't enough, or maybe, he eventually came around and listened to his mother:) He got a law degree and is  most generous with his time and expertise in the field of entertainment law.  

He blended interests from both sides of his brain, his talent and natural ability to help others. He's a hard worker, a committed dad and  has a    happy disposition.

I so enjoyed hearing  stories of his childhood and his mother Roz  (Rosalynn), who was compassionate, encouraging, believer in a strong education and a big advocate for gratitude and appreciation.  "My mom enjoyed the moments but didn't necessarily feel the need to make the moments happen", say Gordon.

Mark has an interesting story he shares about his great-grandfather emigrating from Eastern Europe to the United States and his port of entry was Ellis Island.

Hope you enjoy this episode of Should Have Listened To My Mother

 

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship.

Marcie Coronado has travelled quite a bit, yet always comes back to Medanales, New Mexico.

It's high arid dessert and a farming community where the main source of water is the Rio Chama. Between a lack of water and adverse weather conditions, it was often a struggle.

Her father's side of the family is part hispanic, by way of Mexico and her mother's side of the family is native to New Mexico.  

As the oldest, Marcie helped raised her 7 younger siblings.  The women of the family did all the cooking and weaving and the men did all the outside work, including the farming.

Marcie's mother, Cordelia, had her hands full. Today at 87, Cordelia is still farming  and weaving- The South West Weavers. 

Marcie's grandmother, Agueda Salazar Martinez, noted for her Chimayo-style woven rugs and blankets, a world renown weaver, has her weavings in the Smithsonian Institution in DC.

Marcie's grandfather was the very first postmaster general in Medanales.  So you see, my guest has a long family history in the area.  Along with that, comes big responsibilities.

"My mother taught us to be good, share what you can, if you see someone struggling, help them up," says Marcie. Marcie is still helping people out in her community today. 

Cordelia taught Marcie and her siblings that, "you always have to guide that sapling,  tie it on both sides so it grows straight.  You have to guide it otherwise it'll always go toward the sun and you don't necessarily want that."

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

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.

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.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

What does a little girl do when both parents are raging alcoholics and extremely neglectful? She kept hoping that  it was all a big mistake and her real family would come by any day and take her to her real home.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Though Mark didn't necessarily take the normal career path, his mother always supported him.  She could see that Mark had a strong work ethic. There were a number of lessons that Pats instilled in here children, including to always acknowledge and  respect others and 'give back' whenever possible.

Though Mark didn't necessarily take the normal career path, his mother always supported him.  She could see that Mark had a strong work ethic. There were a number of lessons that Pats instilled in here children, including to always acknowledge and  respect others and 'give back' whenever possible.

Unfortunately this interview was recorded prior to the death of Mark's good friend and former boss, Jake Burton Carpenter, creator of Burton Snowboards. My condolences go out to Jake's family and to all the Heingartners.  Also, currently the world is in the middle of the COVID-19 outbreak and Mark Heingartner is a first responder in NYC,  he is a firefighter (NYC Ladder 25, 11th Battalion). To all our brave first responders, we adore you and thank you from the bottom our our hearts.  Stay Home and Stay Safe.

"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.

Looking Back at S1E10 Attorney, Tami Steckler, formerly of the Legal Aid Society in New York, finds it very comforting to have many children under her roof. That's because she and her husband are foster parents and have helped many families get back on their feet.

Tami was raised in a similar environment as a child on Long Island where her mother, also an attorney, welcomed anyone in need into their home. She's very grateful to have had such a conscientious and giving mother who taught her the value of unconditional love.

That's because she and her husband are foster parents and have helped many families get back on their feet.

Tami was raised in a similar environment as a child on Long Island where her mother, also an attorney, welcomed anyone in need into their home. She's very grateful to have had such a conscientious and giving mother who taught her the value of unconditional love.

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

My first guest, Lisa Stamm, was a long time employee and shared when and how her interests began as a volunteer and what some of the greatest lessons her free spirited and nontraditional mother taught her.

"You are  just like mom" is a common sentiment my second guest,  Leesa Anderson hears from her sisters.  In retrospect, she cherishes the similarities because Leesa is very proud of her mother's accomplishments.  Daughter of a Naval Officer who was often away, her mother had to raise the girls on her own for long periods of time. Leesa's mother's determination and hard work left a lasting impression.

"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.

Django Reinhardt's unique guitar style caught Stephane's heart as a teen and inspired many years of studying with  'gypsy jazz' guitar master Serge Krief and  traveling the world.

"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.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Author, actor and director, Dolores Rice, who's husband is Andrew McCarthy, considers herself a storyteller and seeker and felt compelled to document this experience openly and with love.

Dolores shares her stories of her loving mother Margot and the difference in the non-conversations that she experienced versus the bountiful and generous conversations Dolores has had with her daughter, Willow.

 

"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.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Looking Back at S1E1 After recording, producing and editing 20 episodes of "Should Have Listened To My Mother", I wanted to go back and revisit where I began.  My two guests, Joan Hamberg and  Christopheren Nomura couldn't be more different-different generations, different cultural backgrounds and yet their mother's and their mother's messages were very similar.  

I believe a good education is a crucial component of  happiness. So when your mother asks, did you do your homework? Please be honest. It'll all pay off in the future.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

A no nonsense woman, Erma Jean's 3 kids were her top priority.  After time as a victim of abuse and an alcoholic husband, she left  her husband and moved back in with her parents.

At 4 years old, Dawn helped her mom as she struggled with all the challenges of being a single parent and having to go out and find a job.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Ellen Mitchell, Gail's mother,  has a great sense of humor and even though she was a Long Island new correspondent and covering major news breaking stories, she always was laughing and making others laugh too.

Gail tells a very funny story of having to transport a piece of artwork so make sure you listen till the end because you probably have never heard a story like this one before.

"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.

After one year of college, Mark decided it wasn't for him and with his mother, 'Pats', blessing he went on to becoming a lifeguard at some of the toughest beaches on the Atlantic Ocean and eventually a New York City Fire fighter, Fire House Ladder #25, 11th Battalion. 

Though Mark didn't necessarily take the normal career path, his mother always supported him.  She could see that Mark had a strong work ethic. There were a number of lessons that Pats instilled in here children, including to always acknowledge and  respect others and 'give back' whenever possible.

Unfortunately this interview was recorded prior to the death of Mark's good friend and former boss, Jake Burton Carpenter, creator of Burton Snowboards. My condolences go out to Jake's family and to all the Heingartners.  Also, currently the world is in the middle of the COVID-19 outbreak and Mark Heingartner is a first responder in NYC,  he is a firefighter (NYC Ladder 25, 11th Battalion).

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

After one year of college, Mark decided it wasn't for him and with his mother, 'Pats', blessing he went on to becoming a lifeguard at some of the toughest beaches on the Atlantic Ocean and eventually a New York City Fire fighter, Fire House Ladder #25, 11th Battalion. 

Though Mark didn't necessarily take the normal career path, his mother always supported him.  She could see that Mark had a strong work ethic. There were a number of lessons that Pats instilled in here children, including to always acknowledge and  respect others and 'give back' whenever possible.

Unfortunately this interview was recorded prior to the death of Mark's good friend and former boss, Jake Burton Carpenter, creator of Burton Snowboards. My condolences go out to Jake's family and to all the Heingartners.  Also, currently the world is in the middle of the COVID-19 outbreak and Mark Heingartner is a first responder in NYC,  he is a firefighter (NYC Ladder 25, 11th Battalion). To all our brave first responders, we adore you and thank you from the bottom our our hearts.  Stay Home and Stay Safe.

She relied on it daily to get through each day.  The shock, devastation and sadness of suddenly loosing her husband with 8 children to care for was overwhelming.

It seems that her youngest child,  had some of the answers, or so it seemed.  "She let me be me" says Maryellen Cole.   Maryellen considers herself very fortunate to have had such a strong and loving yet vulnerable mother who often had to put herself last.

Unconditional love, faith and letting Maryellen be herself were key to establishing a wonderful lasting relationship.

"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.

“A Heartfelt and Insightful Exploration of Maternal Love”

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

Each episode offers a chance to learn how different individuals have been shaped by their mothers’ actions and words. Jackie skillfully guides these conversations, revealing why guests with similar backgrounds have forged different paths.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

Gina Kunadian

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

So, do you try and piece things together or do you 'pull yourself up by your bootstraps' and move on? Very wise words that sure came in handy later on.

Having your Doctoral degree and then writing a book about Aliens, what?  It's a journey that my next guest, Dr. Bridget Brown shares with us. Her mom never attended college but her daughter sure did -receiving her doctorate in American Studies.  "Loved spending time with her children",  her mother's favorite thing to do and such an important one at that.

So, do you try and piece things together or do you 'pull yourself up by your bootstraps' and move on? Very wise words that sure came in handy later on.

Having your Doctoral degree and then writing a book about Aliens, what?  It's a journey that my next guest, Dr. Bridget Brown shares with us. Her mom never attended college but her daughter sure did -receiving her doctorate in American Studies.  "Loved spending time with her children",  her mother's favorite thing to do and such an important one at that.

 

"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.

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".
