In this episode, Rich has a conversation with Steve Acerno, Maggie Grant, Jennifer Pritchard, and Ramona Harrison.

May is recognized as National Foster Care Month, a time to raise awareness about the critical need for foster families and the valuable role they play in supporting children in need. This month-long observance highlights the unique challenges faced by children in the foster care system, while also celebrating the incredible impact that foster parents and caregivers have on the lives of children and youth. National Foster Care Month is an opportunity to honor the dedication and commitment of foster parents, social workers, advocates, and others who work tirelessly to ensure the safety, well-being, and success of children in foster care. It is also a time to encourage more individuals and families to consider fostering and to learn about the many ways they can support the needs of vulnerable children in their communities.

Candace Plattor is a highly respected Addictions Therapist with over three decades of experience helping addicts and their families overcome addiction. Her signature Family Addiction Counselling and Therapy Program focuses on healing the entire family because overcoming addiction is a family condition.

The results of her work are astounding, with addicts stopping their use and families regaining their lives from the ravages of addiction. Candace's success has led to a long waiting list of clients and has made her a sought-after leader in the field of addictions. As the developer of the Love With Boundaries Family Addiction Counselling and Therapy method, she now works with a team of top counselors and coaches to help both families and their addicts break the devastating cycle of addiction for good. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction, Candace Plattor's work is a must-learn.

In this episode, Rich has a conversation with Marlene Shipley Everhardt.

Step into the world of Marlene Shipley Everhardt, a Maryland native hailing from the illustrious Bel Air. Marlene's incredible journey began with a simple idea, to capture the heartwarming experiences between a deaf grandmother and her hearing grandsons in a children's book. Years later, this idea has blossomed into a sensational series of "Signing Grandma Books," which showcase beautifully illustrated American Sign Language (ASL) signs. Co-authoring the series with her high school friend of 50 years, Pat Goldys, Marlene is thrilled to continue her legacy as a CODA (Child Of Deaf Adults).

When she's not pouring her heart and soul into the books, Marlene can be found lounging on the beach on a sunny day, indulging in her love for literature at bookstores on rainy days, or sipping tea with her closest girlfriends on almost any day. Join Marlene on her journey as she inspires, educates, and delights readers of all ages with her enchanting stories of family, love, and the beauty of American Sign Language.
