A mothers instinct. Call it intuition, call it a "sixth sense" as many used to call it decades ago. Women have been having children & going through child birth for hundreds of years, and starting in the early eighteenth century, the service of medically trained midwives entered the delivery room. But what happens with the advancement of medicine vs. listening to a mother's instinct when something goes wrong? With special guest, Katie Spinks, we talk about her childbirth traumatic experience, to educate women & all listeners: listen to your instinct. Listen to your body. Find a provider who will not only listen but support you as well.

Where were you on: April 22, 2020? What were you doing on July 3rd, 2020? These dates are known for the family of Vanessa Guillen: the date she went missing from Fort Hood, and the date that the Army confirmed her remains were discovered and confirmed. The dates that a families lives were changed forever. But these are also dates that the community came together, learned her name, and demanded justice. We are now here, two years later, with still an outpour of cases from not only Fort Hood relating to soldiers missing, sexual harassment/sexual assault but also now reaching military bases all across the world. We hear their names, we learn their stories. But what are we doing for change to not only get justice for them as victims but also peace for their families? What is being done to stop this epidemic within the military walls, and what reform is being conducted for not only our current military service men & women but for the future of our military and our countries. I sit down with special guest, Mayra Guillen, Vanessa Guillen's sister to discuss her sisters life taken too soon, the families tenacity for justice, and the future changes and the legacy of Vanessa Guillen.

October: Domestic Violence Awareness Month. What does this month mean? Statistics of: on average nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States. During one year, this equates to more than 10 million women & men. Is this something that we are discussing as a society, for victims to speak their truth for change? Do we take notice after it happens to us, a family member or a friend? What if it's happening to our military men & women that we are to protect? IT IS. With special guest Audry, founder of Amazonian Warrior Foundation to discuss domestic violence, the need for change in the military, and what life looks like after the violence.

What happens when you're in the right time of your life: finding comfortable in the uncomfortable with yourself in the mirror, raising children in this generation, creating a future- but the wrong side of social media of constantly being judged?

You've seen her on social media platforms (Tik Tok, Instagram), you've heard her outspoken opinions on life topics! But what happens when the technology goes away at the end of the day? What happens when you're the female, the daughter, the mother in the quiet 4 walls? What thoughts happen in the silence. Special guest Brianna talks about it ALL. Who is Brianna?

Twenty years.... think about all you've been through, succeeded in, failed at, and much more in 20 years. Think about how much society has changed in that amount of time: leaps & bounds in all aspects of technology, medicine, education. But now ask yourself, has the aspect of movement and change occurred in the last 20 years when it comes to sexual assault? If your answer was yes, then ask yourself: has change occurred in advancement within the military with reporting sexual assault? Some of you might change your answer now. Why do answers have to change based on victims & justice when it comes to civilian vs military? Shouldn't we provide more safety for those in uniform that are protecting our country? What happens when those abusers we are protecting are the "monsters in the uniform"? Special guest Rachel, owner of Combat Beauties Apparel, sits down to discuss the military injustice that has occurred not once, but twice, over a 20 year span.

Ending the month of September: Suicide Awareness Month. While being an officer can be a rewarding job, it can be taxing on their. mental health. With calls that reflect on domestic violence, officer-involved shootings, and more as a regular part of the job, this leads to a higher rate of at least 25% of officers with suicidal ideations. What happens behind the scenes when the uniform comes off, they return home to their families & support systems? What mental health issues can occur with these men and women, that go unnoticed and often times not discussed. With special guest K9 Kash, we focus on not only suicide awareness but mental health within the law enforcement community and with men.
