Today's guest is Dr. Crystal.  She's an educator and the founder of a non profit called Empowering Single Moms. I asked her to join in a discussion with me to get to the bottom of why women are expected to be so strong all the time.  Connect with Crystal on Facebook and Instagram @CrystalSaidThat.  She keeps it real also and her amazing comeback story gives her voice and mission an authenticity that I just love!

Hampton Conway, III is today's guest.  He is an actual victim of domestic abuse. I asked him to speak with me to share his experience as a male navigating the court system in order to seek justice for himself and for his children. He shares how men who lie about abuse make it difficult for men like him to be believed, be awarded custody of their children, and to get the help that they need.

Listen to this episode to hear how I felt supported and loved by one of my oldest friends in the world. During the worst time of my life.

Trace of Big and Purty Custom Clutches continues as a guest today.  Check her website out here. As we concluded talking about the business of being a Phoenix Woman and her company Big and Purty custom clutches, she began telling me her backstory.  And what a story it was.  She jumps right in in this episode as she talks about what she has survived.  You'll appreciate episode 19 all the more when you hear about the low points she endured that became the fertile soil for the woman, mother, and business owner she has grown into.

I want to holler! I am so happy to have Trace of Big and Purty Custom Clutches as a guest today.  Check her website out here. 

She creates very artistic handmade clutch purses, and clever t-shirts featuring some great southern humor.  Today, she's talking about her making her mind up that a reinvention was necessary and following the prompting of a friend and some guidance from YouTube, began creating custom clutch bags.  The business has been a total success professionally, but I can tell based on the conversation, it's also been a balm for her healing.  A major part of the reinvention she needed after her divorce.

Gia is back for part two of her story. A single mother of four girls, she's been overwhelmed with behavioral challenges with one of her daughters.  Challenges that include being punched in the face and given a concussion. The overwhelming responsibility of raising her girls alone has left Gia feeling desperate at times.  But alas, like a Phoenix, she's continuing to rise each day and search for new hope and strategies to help her child and her situation.  She demonstrates that sometimes being your best self just means not giving up and enduring through heartache.
