Being the local Doctor and the Doctor's wife was a saving grace for         Hanni's family. Shortly after the German Army entered Vienna in 1938, the family started the paperwork in trying to immigrate to Massachusetts.

It took quite a long time for them to secure all the paperwork and a job in Boston for her father, but shortly there after they were on their journey to America.

The children's book "My Two Cities" by Robin Mayers Stein with Hanni Myers has been written in verse so children  and teens can learn of the experience of this one family. What was Hanni's childhood like as an immigrant who didn't speak English when she arrived in  America . They overcame many obstacles but never gave up hope for themselves and many others

No matter how challenging, Hanni's mother and father were able to help 17 families immigrate to the United States to freedom. Some were friends or relatives, others were not. But the family never stopped trying to help others left behind in Europe.

“My parents are supportive of me and I’ve always considered the presence of my parents a great, great, great fortune”. Stephane feels especially fortunate having had his parents support throughout his budding career.

Corinne, Stephane's mother, was a  first grade teacher in France and she was meticulous and dedicated to her  young students.  She fully supports her son's career choice and even helps out with publicity and organizing before any performances.  Corinne is her son's biggest fan.

Django Reinhardt's unique guitar style caught Stephane's heart as a teen and inspired many years of studying with  'gypsy jazz' guitar master Serge Krief and  traveling the world.

"There's a lot of waking up going on with woman", says Rosjke.  "Women, were expected to be  emotionally mute and not have any needs of their own."  It's sad but true, too many generations of the women caring for the family and home did not have a voice of their own.  This is one of the main causes for the miscommunication between  mother and  daughter.

Ms. Hasseldine goes on to say "to understand the mother-daughter relationship, you really need to understand how women are treated in society."

For the most part, mothers did the best they could, with what they were given. But "women have more power than what they think, "it's what we do with what we've been given" that  really matters.  

The Huff Post says, "Rosjke Hasseldine is the world's pre-eminent     mother-daughter relationship expert with over 20 years listening to women and girls from around the world talk about their lives and relationships. Rosjke is the creator of the Mother-Daughter Coaching Model which uncovers and explains the hidden dynamics between mothers and daughters."

Rosjke Hasseldine is the author of two books:

1. "The Mother-Daughter Puzzle"

2. "Silent Female Scream" 

Books that Ms. Hasseldine recommends:

1. "The New Don't Blame Mother" by Paula  J. Caplan Ph.D.
2. "Of Women Born" by Adrienne Rich

When your mom makes all the little things in life magical, who needs the big things? Jen Hale's mother, Nancy  taught music lessons in the evening and was home taking care of the 3 girls during the day.  This week's guest, Jen Hale, recalls her mom's spirit, wisdom, patience and compassion in moments when not  every mother and/or father could -the moments when a parent is filled with fear for their child's future.   However,  Nancy believed that "there is a bigger plan in life and you have to do what's in your heart and not worry about what others think."

Jen definitely has her hands full with her  11 kids but she wouldn't trade it for the world. Regardless of all the crazy comments people say when seeing the family all together, she couldn't be happier and more appreciative of all the little things her mother taught her.

So much thought goes into the conversations that a mother has with her daughter about becoming a woman.  A wonderful book for adolescent and pre-adolescent girls, "The Alchemy of Womanhood",  is a wholesome and poetic take on becoming familiar with the beauty and power of your own body as a young lady.  

Author, actor and director, Dolores Rice, who's husband is Andrew McCarthy, considers herself a storyteller and seeker and felt compelled to document this experience openly and with love.

Dolores shares her stories of her loving mother Margot and the difference in the non-conversations that she experienced versus the bountiful and generous conversations Dolores has had with her daughter, Willow.

 "Have I Taught You Everything I Know", a book of daily entries, sheds light on who exactly McGrath's mom was/is and helps clarify her mom's personality and life choices and philosophies.  Monette and her mom were always two peas in a pod regardless of the complicated family history....(with 8 sets of parents and two divorces). "I had put my mom on a pedestal and later learned that no one is perfect, but I always knew that my mom loved me unconditionally."    "My mom thinks I'm brave just because I go on stage in front of lots of people and perform,  but she's really the brave one." 

All the insight and life lessons that were passed down from McGraw's mother will be shared with McGraw's young daughter-lessons of love, obstacles and challenges and especially bravery.

My guest was a baby when her unmarried teen mom left her with her abusive grandmother for ten years, and yet she harbors no ill will toward anyone.  "i was always told, I could never do nothin right," LeQuita mentions though she seems to have done everything right.

She kept moving forward in life as though what was given her had no real consequences-she knew from a young age that there was 'more'.  "One of the many blessings is because the people I was around didn't love me and I didn't love them.  I didn't want to emulate them."

LeQuita Vance-Watkins lives in Vermont and still surrounds herself with the MORE of life, "the best of everything", the Arts.

Her mother's strength, one of many wonderful characteristics,  helped my guest through some really tough times, including my her dad's death, job elimination, her mom's death and a divorce.  Both mother and daughter survived  big life transitions and had to reinvent themselves.  

When your mother makes you feel like you're the most important person in the room, that's a great feeling. When your mom is brutally honest and tells you something she's not particularly happy with, well, maybe that's not such a great feeling. But it was so much of what has left a lasting impression on my guest.  Sue Gust Fields, to this day keeps her mother's memories very close and says her mom gives her gifts from heaven, including finding her second husband for her.

After recording, producing and editing 20 episodes of "Should Have Listened To My Mother", I wanted to go back and revisit where I began.  My two guests, Joan Hamberg and  Christopheren Nomura couldn't be more different-different generations, different cultural backgrounds and yet their mother's and their mother's messages were very similar.  

I believe a good education is a crucial component of  happiness. So when your mother asks, did you do your homework? Please be honest. It'll all pay off in the future.

Jackie Tantillo’s “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast is a treasure and it’s clear why it’s a 2023 People’s Choice Podcast Award Nominee.  This show delves into the profound impact mother and maternal role models have on our lives through personal stories and reflections.

This podcast is a collection of timeless stories that highlight the powerful role of maternal figures in our society.  Whether your mother influenced you positively or you thrived despite challenges, this show resonates deeply.

I highly recommend “Should Have Listened To My Mother” Podcast for its insightful, heartfelt and enriching content.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship. 

Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist,  Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed  many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".

Dawn and I met in college and I'm so glad we got to spend some time together to talk about her mother, Erma Jean O'Connor. Erma Jean grew up on a farm in upstate New York.  She was one of seven children, 6 girls and 1 boy and she had a wonderful sense of humor and loved to laugh.

A no nonsense woman, Erma Jean's 3 kids were her top priority.  After time as a victim of abuse and an alcoholic husband, she left  her husband and moved back in with her parents.

At 4 years old, Dawn helped her mom as she struggled with all the challenges of being a single parent and having to go out and find a job.

Overcoming obstacles  and jumping over hurdles was the mainstay for many years but the years were filled with lots of love and laughter and Dawn  says her mom "was her most important being."

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives. Jackie's guests are open and honest and  answer the question, are you who you are today because of, or in spite of, your mother and so much more. You'll be amazed at what the responses are.
