    Hello hello hello!


    Thank you all so so much for listening in and tuning into this episode of Advice 4 The Living! This episode was jam-packed with twists, turns ace immense heartbreak…with one underlying theme…elder abuse.  If you can relate (which I hope you can’t), I’m so sorry and I hope you find solace, peace and comfort in knowing you’re not alone.  It’s never okay to put our hands on anyone, let alone society’s most vulnerable.


    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!

    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!

    Hello hello hello!


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


    This episode was definitely heart-wrenching and so sad; and I can’t even imagine enduring such isolation and  loneliness, as well as being fully bullied not just at school; but from your own father of all people.  I’m beyond  grateful intervention happened before the worst case scenario.  If you can relate to this story (which I pray you can’t), I hope you find solace, peace and comfort in knowing you’re not alone and life really does get better…it’s not just a slogan on a T-shirt lol.  


    And 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.

    Hello hello hello!


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

    Hello hello hello!


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


    This episode is incredibly personal and nuanced…I think both  parties involved have the same desire…It’s just a matter  of logistics, and the key is mutual respect and a desire  to erase expectations, and the pressure his girlfriend is putting on him.  I’m so sorry if you can relate to circumstances like this, people can sometime times be so excited they don’t realize just how toxic their behaviour really it’s. But if you  can relate to this in any way, I hope that you can find comfort and solace in knowing you’re not alone.  


    And 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.
