On This Episode of The Beautiful Butterfly Radio Show We Welcome Special Guest Colleen Williams, She is a Domestic Violence and Sexual Abuse Advocate, and Shares her Own Personal Stories to Help Many!

Meet Our Guest: Colleen "Warrior Empress" Williams was born in the beautiful twin island of Trinidad and Tobago in 1972 and has always had a passion for writing poetry and short stories. This book was written out of the painful experiences she has endured in life. Coming from a rough past, it was hard to trust and forgive again after years of abuse. It is her heartfelt wish to educate individuals of all ages using this book, which is filled with poetry, short stories and dedications. "What won't kill me only makes me stronger.." she says it all the time. However, she knows for a fact if she hadn't gone through the things she has, she would not be where she is today. In this book "stop." she speaks to and for women who have been Sexually Abused or have dealt with Domestic Violence. Teaching men and women to take all negative situations and make them as positive as possible, while empowering them to do better and be better.

I believe this has been a source of conversation and contention between parents, among siblings and even in schools for ages! Girls are supposed to walk the straight line, be neat and mannerable; while boys, well "boys will be boys." Should boys be treated with a heavy hand and girls be spoiled with gentle tones, more understanding, and kid gloves? Do you give your sons more freedom, yet your daughters are on a tight reign? At the ripe age of 16 are girls given a curfew of 11:00pm, only allowed to group date and only attend school or church sanctioned parties; while we give 16 year boys a condom for their wallet "just in case", a curfew of midnight, and a pat on the back for dating the prettiest girl in school? 

Should we base treatment solely on gender or on something else..like level of maturity, responsibility, or even grades? Join the Conversation Friday at 8pm (CST) / 9pm (EST) as we discuss: "Raising Boys vs Raising Girls: Should there be a Difference in Treatment based on Gender?"

On This Episode of The Beautiful Butterfly Radio Show we Welcome Special Guest Rodney Jordan as we discuss " Why Parents Should be Involved in Their Childs Education". Alot of parents do not often understand how their involvement with their child determines how well their child does in school.

 

Meet Our Guest Rodney Jordan: Teacher, Author, and Activist Rodney Jordan is no stranger to education reform or social transformation. After once being the child no teacher wanted in their classrooms, he is now the teacher whom all students want to be in his. Jordan set out on a course of rebellion at an early age.

Against the backdrop of a city racked with crime and despair, he found himself in a world of trouble early on. Whether it was

repeating the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades, constantly ending up in the principal’s office, or just hanging out

with the wrong crowd, the young Rodney Jordan appeared to be on the path of so many he knew—the path to prison. Finally, after

numerous disciplinary infractions in school, repeated incorrigibility offenses at home and in the community, he was forced out of his

single mother’s residence at the age of twelve.

To the surprise of many, the troubled African American teen went on to graduate from high school but didn’t stop there. After

receiving his bachelor’s degree from Norfolk State University in 2008, Rodney Jordan continued his education at George Mason

University where he earned a master’s degree in new professional studies in teaching in 2011. As an educator, Jordan has taught

math, science, social studies, reading, writing, and engineering irrespectively to second, fourth, fifth, sixth, and eighth

graders. He has also published two books, Tired of Being Black and From the Heart of a Teacher.

On  This Episode of The Beautiul Butterfly Radio Show We Welcome Special Guest Lisa Tillman Page as we discuss her College Student Coaching Program.

Lisa Tillman Page whom is a Human Development Trainer and Life Coach.,Specializes in helping others realize that their life is worth the risk of making it amazing by the actions they take today. Work with young adults 18-25; couples; co-parents; professionals; individuals and groups; in person and virtual.

Young adults have unlimited access to unlimited information. While it may be a good thing, for some it paralyzes them from moving for fear of failure, others it gives them free range to jump from decision to decision without putting much thought into any of them, and then others carefully weigh the options and seek wise counsel.

That type of wise and confidential guidance or resources to that type of guidance through relationship building and partnership has been proven to decrease some of the major pitfalls young adults find themselves in.

Far too many of your young adults shy or run away from "adulting" as they call it. They stay stuck in a failure to thrive. Ask, some parents are lost in how to help them progress into the adult they were meant to be. We will address that too.
