I've been sick the last couple weeks with COVID and so wasn't feeling up to posting anything last week. BUT, the show much go on!
Today, I am feeling better but my voice sounds worse, as everything in my chest is breaking up (gross!)
This week's episode is an audio file of my very first national presentation, at Heartbeat International's 2018 Annual Conference in Anaheim, CA.
If you've been listening for a while, you probably already know that I am Founder and Executive Director of a maternity home in Tennessee. We serve mothers in crisis and virtually all I know about trauma, poverty mindset, and addiction, I experienced first through my moms and then sought out the research to better understand both their behaviors and how we, the staff, can help more effectively.
