    Hello hello hello!

    Thank you all so so much for listening to this episode of Advice 4 The Living! This episode is truly a heartbreaking and devastating one. For such a young lady facing a crossroads in which a decision that feels impossible... My heart aches for this entire situation, and I’m sending my deepest love and encouragement and support to anyone who has ever experienced a situation similar to this.  I’m so sorry for what you’ve been through or are continuing to  go through, and I hope you find solace, peace and comfort in knowing you’re not alone.  

    For everyone listening — regardless of if you can relate or not — I hope you can at least take away something that stood out to you or a tidbit of something to think about!

    Also, I want to reiterate my appreciation for everything you do to interact with this podcast. While downloads are the most helpful (especially if the video has an ad), I truly  appreciate all of it.  From you liking/favouriting/saving the podcast itself or specific episodes that resonate with/stand out to you, to sharing it (either on or off-line/by word of mouth), to when you give it a rating/review on the app you’re tuning in from, and even when you just simply listen.  It really helps propel this podcast forward in the algorithm so that more people can join our ever-growing community movement of difference-makers, world-changers, and those who genuinely care about our fellow humans who are struggling with an invisible burden, even if we don’t share the same opinions/beliefs.  There’s always mutual support and respect and it’s so humbling and beautiful to be a part of!

    I also really appreciate all of your email submissions, because without them…this podcast wouldn’t exist.  So if you have a topic/subject matter, circumstance or problem/issue/dilemma that you want me to share my thoughts, perspective, advice and opinions on and discussed in an episode, please don’t hesitate to email me at [email protected] and I check my messages constantly so stay tuned because you’ll never know when your submission will be next!

No pressure whatsoever but if you ever feel like giving me a “tip” for the work I put into this podcast, please head to buymeacoffee.com/Advice4TheLiving No amount is too small and I *genuinely* can’t emphasize enough how much I’d appreciate it!  I do have to  pay out of pocket to produce these episodes, so no account is too small and will forever be a massive gift!  That being said, whether you give me $0 or a billion dollars…I’ll love you all just the same!

    PPS. I am so sorry if there is an ad on this video, I know how annoying they are… But if you download an episode, where an ad is playing, I do get a bit of a kickback so thank you all so much for understanding and being patient with me.

    Hello hello hello!


    Thank you all so so much for listening to this episode of the Advice 4 The Living podcast! 


    You’re in for a bit of a spicy one here today folks.  There’s a lot of blunt and honest conversation about actions having consequences. I genuinely can’t even imagine taking money and order resources away from people who genuinely need it… all because one person is just far too entitled and selfish to see the big picture.   


    For everyone listening — regardless of whether you can relate or not — I hope you can at least take away something that stood out to you or something to think about.

    Again, I apologize this got so heated and I got a bit rambly and out of control.  I genuinely hope you can understand my position and why I’m so passionate about it…and I apologize if I was “too mean” or “too harsh”; but I truly believe that a healthy dose of reality was needed here.

    This episode was heartbreaking in describing this entire situation.  I’m so sorry if you can relate to dealing with a child that has zero discipline and no respect, but I hope that you can find comfort and solace in knowing you’re not alone.  My heart aches for the devastating outcome that is proof that children need to be held accountable.


    With that being said…for everyone listening – whether you can relate or not – I hope that you can at least take something away that resonated with you or made you think about situations like this in a new way.
