Keepin It Real w/Caramel Podcast had a great time interviewing Jennifer Silva Redmond. We talked about her and her husband living on a boat. I feel this is so romantic and refreshing to hear. We spoke about how does it feels to live on a boat. What are the advantages and disadvantages of living on a boat. Jennifer loves living on the boat. She gets to travel and just be free. She told me that people ask her if she gets bored or how she could live in such a small space. I told her it is called having your peace.

Jennifer Silva Redmond is a writer and freelance editor from California. Her essays, articles, and fiction have been published in numerous anthologies and magazines and on sites such as Brevity. She is on the staff of the Southern California Writers Conference and San Diego Writers, Ink, and was the prose editor for A Year in Ink, vol 3, and co-founder of the critically acclaimed Sea of Cortez Review. She lives with her husband Russel, an artist and teacher, aboard their current sailboat Watchfire, somewhere on the West Coast of North America. Formerly editor-in-chief of Sunbelt Publications, Jennifer is now their editor-at-large. She is currently writing a book about editing; her book reviews and blog posts about writing, editing, and sailing life can be found on her website.

When Jennifer Silva married Russel Redmond, they decided to spend a year at sea, sailing in Mexico. The honeymoon tested their new relationship, not just through rocky waters and unexpected weather, but in the ways that living on a twenty-six-foot sailboat makes one reconsider what’s truly important. In this charming, meditative memoir, Jennifer recounts that first fateful year they spent at sea, moving back and forth through the waves of her life. On their first voyage, the couple sailed Watchfire to Baja’s Sea of Cortez, where they spent a year before sailing south along Mexico and Central America and through the Panama Canal. Jennifer’s unique experience on the boat weaves back and forth through time as she explores the events that led her to taking the first step onto the boat—from her childhood to the time she spent as a struggling actor in New York.

Keepin It Real w/ Caramel Podcast interviewed Mo Moshaty, and we had a very deep conversation about horror, which I am not a fan of horror or anything involving horror. Mo Moshaty loves every single moment of horror. She started watching horror movies at a young age, and she became a big fan of horror. Mo Moshaty is a genre screenwriter, author, and lecturer. With a concentration on psychological and possession horror in her writing. Mo’s background as a trauma specialist and behavioral therapist provides a sturdy foundation. She is the creator of the course, “Writing Trauma

Respectfully for Screen '' and was a Guest Lecturer for Prairie View A&M

University's Film and TV Program and with Horror BAFSS in Sheffield, UK

for No Return: A Yellowjackets Symposium. There is so much more to Mo Moshaty.

Mo is a journalist and co-founder with Nyx Horror Collective and co-producer of the 13 Minutes of Horror Film Festival featured on The Shudder Channel. Nyx Horror

Collective was founded by a group of diverse woman-identifying horror creators to develop, celebrate, and elevate original, women-led horror content. As a core member of Nyx, she has recently partnered with Stowe Story Labs to provide a fellowship for women writers over 40 working in the genre. Mo also served as Associate Producer on Scottish

Indie SciFi Horror web series, “Cops and Monsters”, and was ecstatic to shine more of a light on indie horror. Mo's most recent literary work can be found in "A Quaint and Curious Volume of Gothic Tales," published by Brigid's Gate Press, and "206 Word Stories" by Bag O' Bones Press. Her novel "Love The Sinner" is a thought-provoking examination of sin by the co-founder of the Nyx Horror Collective.

According to Dante, a sin is the misdirection of love - the human will, or essentially, the direction of our

beings. "Love the Sinner" is an examination of just how those sins can kaleidoscope into horrific consequences, creating a distorted and deadly landscape. These stories stand stark before you in full

glaring misstep and macabre to show the human psyche in all its twisted reality.

You can find "Love The Sinner" at

Love the Sinner - Kindle edition by Moshaty, Mo, Turpitt, Elle,

Oxler, Carey, Ellis, Stephanie. Literature & Fiction Kindle eBooks

@ Amazon.com.

Keepin It Real w/ Caramel Podcast had an unbelievable jaw-dropping interview with two phenomenal teenagers, Hallie Balogh & Auttie Grace (H.A. Stories). These teenagers are on their way to fame. They are well-spoken, well-rounded, and have great energy. They already have a plan on what they want to do and how they are going to do it. Hallie and Auttie are already writing their second novel, and they self-publish. These wonderful teenagers have a lot in store for their future. Look out for their screenplay and so much more. By the way, I am super happy I met Hallie and Auttie in Baltimore at the Inspirational Women in Literature Media and Journalism Awards. When I first met them, I knew they were very special and unique.

More about Hallie and Auttie:

Everything started in 5th grade when Hallie Balogh and Auttie Grace first met. They quickly became known for always being together. You never only saw one of them. That 5th grade school year didn’t only spark their friendship, but it set the foundation of the Auttie and Hallie writing power duo. From 5th grade and all through middle school, they spent their lunches, free time, and every chance in between writing stories together. Once Covid-19 hit, they took it as an advantage to write their first novel, “Empire: To Earth and Back."

Honestly, it started as a joke, but here they are, two award-winning teenage authors with a published YA sci-fi adventure novel and many more to come. As young teenage girls, they want to inspire others that no dream is “too big” when you’re passionate about something. You just have to follow your dream and do it. This is how H.A. Stories began.

Hallie and Auttie are helping others in their dreams, such as friends and other teenagers. The goal for the teenage girls is building their own publishing company because they want to help people who wants to write and publish their book, it doesn't matter what age a person is as long as you reach your goals and dreams they want to be there to help. When they wrote "Empire: To Earth and Back," they never expected that their novel would turn out so great. Just a little overview about the novel.

The way you can look at it, you can either welcome the craziness or live your whole life in fear of it.

Empires rise and fall all the time, but who knew a couple of kids were going to be the ones who tipped the balances of the universe?

Fighting for their lives and on the run from the FBI, a group of kids tries to find their way back home to Esprit, but unintentionally, they mix worlds along the way. When will they finally know the truth? Depends on whether or not they make it out alive. Don’t get caught, don’t give up, don’t die, and most of all, don’t lose your mind.

The one on one conversation with Amanda Hess, a Certified Life & Success Coach for Neurodivergent Women, was very informative and helpful to women who are going through difficult times. We spoke about mental health and so much more. Amanda is a CERTIFIED LIFE COACH AND SHE KNOWS A FEW THINGS ABOUT HAVING A BRAIN THAT DOESN'T ACT LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE'S.

Amanda spent years of her life and multiple thousands of dollars trying to "fix" what was "wrong with herself" until she realized that there actually was "NOTHING" wrong with her. When she started working WITH her own brain, everything else in her life just fell into place. Not only did she feel way less stress & anxiety, but she also began purposefully creating results that she WANTED in her life.

So Amanda started to work on “fixing” herself. THIS IS HOW IT STARTS: Amanda started with drinking to try and cover up who she was. Amanda was a lot of fun in her 20’s. Until she wasn’t because she don’t tend to be “less” emotional when you were wasted.

In Amanda's 30s, she turned to the medical profession for help. Amanda was diagnosed with Postpartum Depression, prescribed SSRI’s with a handful of therapy sessions, and lived like a zombie for an entire year.

But when she was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, she knew that things were as bad as they could possibly get. Amanda had uncontrollable anger, and she didn’t know what to do. Amanda tried all the therapy, podcasts, and books, and ultimately, nothing seemed to help. Until she learned that she didn’t actually have to hate herself. It turned out her brain was working exactly the way it was supposed to. She learned how to understand her anger and give herself what she needed instead of lashing out at others.

(WHILE EVERYONE ELSE THOUGHT EVERYTHING WAS COMPLETELY FINE) Amanda found a coach who loved her unconditionally and taught her to do the same for herself. And now that’s what she is going to teach to others. She considers herself to be a neurodivergent, mental illness survivor. Amanda used to live her life trying to desperately figure out what the fuck was wrong with her. Because she didn’t really fit in. Because everything just seemed a little harder for Amanda. She was a little too loud. A little too excited. A little too genuine. A little too abrasive. She had a life that everyone else would agree looked pretty perfect. She was married, had 2 kids, a dog, a house, and a professional career. It’s just that nobody really knew what happened behind closed doors. Now, Amanda helps hundreds of other women do the same. Amanda loves helping driven women to stop letting "disordered" or "different" block them from living a "HELL YES" life.

I had an upbeat conversation with the native of New York City, Ryan Lane. Ryan Lane is a singer, songwriter, and dancer. He is one of the most inspiring and empowering people I have met. He is very passionate and loves what he does when it comes to entertainment. Ryan loves to give back to people. Ryan Lane is inspired by numerous styles of music. Ryan Lane hoped that one day, he'd share more of his talents with the world.

As a pre-teen, starting his professional music career as a member of the Harlem Boys Choir, he began to develop his own style of vocal range and had the

opportunity to travel the world sharing the stage with the likes of Stevie Wonder and The Backstreet Boys, just to name a few.

Ryan has had many incredible performances throughout the years, from sharing the VMA Stage with Wyclef Jean and Queen Latifah, television appearances with reggae icon Shaggy and legendary superstar Sting, singing the National Anthem at Met-Life Stadium for an audience of 60,000 people at the Jets Game as well as choreographing for inner city kids from New York City and

working with award winning producers, Lady And A Tramp ( Pink, Babyface, Disney, NKOTB) and KayGee Of Naughty By Nature ( Janet Jackson, Aaliyah, Jaheim, Notorious B.I.G, Zhane)

plus, having music featured on the BET Christmas film "Hip Hop Holiday." Ryan has been working closely with KayGee and Lady And A Tramp writing and vocal producing for various artists.

Ryan is currently just coming off a tour with NKOTB for the MixTape Tour with IlltownSluggaz (label owned by Kay Gee and Vinnie from Naughty By Nature). They opened the show as a dj set along with a few performances, including their summer single "FIESTA."

Illtown Sluggaz - Fiesta ft. Ryan Lane [Official Video] - YouTube

During the start of the pandemic, Ryan not only released his single “FOREVER”, he filmed the music video for it in the empty streets of NYC. Not knowing what the future held, Ryan stayed true to who he is, writing, recording, and still dancing, all while being stuck in the house. Little did he know at the time that in 2022, he would then hit the Road for 56 dates with Illtown Sluggaz on the MixTape Tour with NKOTB, Rick Astley, En Vogue and Salt N Pepa.

Since then Ryan has released his version of Phil Collin’s “Against All Odds”, in November 2022, “The Right Song” with Illtown Sluggaz and is getting set to release “MIND” on March 21st. His music can be heard on Dj Coco Chanel Radio Show “The Block” 94.7 NYC as well as Miss Jonesy in the Morning.

Ryans single FOREVER was released, and the video shot smack in the middle of the pandemic.

Ryan is currently working on new music with numerous artists, movies, and television shows. 2023 is looking bright for this talent. There is no stopping Ryan. He is on his way to becoming a household name.

You will never know who you will meet in this small world. The world looks so big, but this world is so small. I had a conversation with David Hollenbach, not knowing that I had seen and talked to him before. Once we spoke about where we saw and talked before, he signed his book personally and gave it to me, such an awesome person. On July 19, 2023, we had a great conversation about leadership.

David Hollenbach is a veteran of the United States Navy with a Master's Degree in Public Administration from Barry University. A major focus of research for his capstone was how strong, positive leadership can influence the culture of a large organization.

While studying at Barry University he published "The Firefighter's Creed" and “Women in the Fire Service: A Diverse Culture Leads to a Successful Culture,” an article highlighting the importance of gender diversity within the fire service in Fire Engineering Magazine.

He has spent years as an instructor, coach, and mentor, helping others define and realize success. Although he no longer works as a servant to the community, his passion for service to others remains stronger than ever.

During his 23-year career in the fire service, he served as a:

• Firefighter

• Apparatus Driver/Pump-Operator/Engineer

• Company Officer/Lieutenant

• Battalion Chief in Operations

• Chief of Special Operations

• Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) peer counselor

• Public Safety Rescue Diver

• Coordinator and developer of his department’s first leadership development program

Battalion Chief David Hollenbach (retired) is the author of “Fireproof: Your Grand Strategy for Transforming Failure into Fuel for Your Future." He is a motivational speaker, coach, and mentor. He owns and operates David Hollenbach Consulting, LLC, and hosts the popular podcast “From Embers to Excellence."

FIREPROOF: Your Grand Strategy for Transforming Failure into Fuel for Your Future [Morgan James Publishing (October 11, 2022) ISBN: 1631958607 $8.49 on eBook and $17.95 Paperback] Mr. Hollenbach takes the idea behind Yale University’s Grand Strategy Program designed for political leaders and heads of large corporations and applies those principles to the individual. His book answers the question: How can I create a grand strategy for my life? He then leads the reader through steps to develop their own unique grand strategy to create a life that helps others and leaves a stellar legacy.

Personal development topics like self-leadership, self-awareness, communication, healthy relationships, and self-care run throughout FIREPROOF, as David R. Hollenbach, III emphasizes the importance of uncovering one’s core values and finding one big WHY. Hollenbach provides an analysis tool for challenging situations to help the reader discern which parts they can control, what they can influence, and which things they can neither control nor influence. He also provides tools for releasing stress and working through feelings of overwhelm, as well as outlines critical daily habits and mindset matters that are essential for success.
