Cassey: I am a 34 year old wife and stay at home mother of three. We live in a small West Texas town where I homeschool my oldest. I grew up in a dance studio and on the back of the horse. I was a competition dance coach, a massage therapist and I have a thriving coffee business. My goal currently is to show others how to stay Guided by Grace and leave my children an empowering legacy to build on. I have been clean 14 years.
An amazing woman, an amazing interview!
Cassey's 3 top tips:
1. Own it- Whatever the issue is, you have to own it.
2. Fix it- Take whatever steps necessary to repair the issue.
3. Live it- You have to decide, for you and not anyone else, be bold about it, be passionate about it.

In Yumay's words:
I was severely abused by sadistic parents - overt dad and covert mom, and emigrated to the US at age 20 with nothing and no one. I learned how to heal myself and build a life:
1. MS in CS from Stanford at age 21. Paid for school by being a CS TA despite English being my second language.
2. Financially free in my early 30s.
3. Ran/Running global sales teams for Microsoft and Google.
4. Built and sold a striving race business with over 20k racers.
5. I was a pretty good athlete myself at one point in my life :) - adventure races, 50 mile runs, podium placing bike racer across MTB, cyclocross, road race, and track race.
6. What I am most proud of is that I have great relationships with my siblings, my friends, my husband and my cat. Not easy since I had to learn how to have good relationships from scratch!
7. Currently also hosting Life Is Love School to help survivors understand they have the power to heal themselves.
For Yumay the following topics are of biggest importance:
1. Not understanding the impact their childhood has on their life today, especially when it comes to intimate relationships.
2. Not realizing that they can heal themselves, but insisting that justice requires their abusers to apologize and fix what they’ve broken.
3. Not making progress because they don’t know how to go about healing themselves.

Raising teens in today’s world is challenging. Add a pandemic, and the potential for conflict is certain. Parents, especially moms, typically feel a tremendous burden of guilt and pain, and when trying to raise a teen, there is often conflict. However, there IS hope, and parents can both empower themselves and their teens to find peace and harmony in their home again.
You should NOT have to parent in isolation. Since schools are significant secondary agents of socialization, high school educators should be better trained as well. “It takes a village” has a whole new meaning in 2021!
Charle uses her unique lens as an Educator, a Mental Health Professional, and a Parent to help schools and families thrive. Her goal is to get teens safely to adulthood with resiliency and empowerment. She uses evidence-based data related to human development and brain science to educate adults about their influences on adolescent behavior. Charle designs and delivers online courses and virtual training internationally, and as the creator and host of the podcast Advancing Humanity, she also invests her time and energy into reaching people on a massive scale, aiming for a prosperous future.
Charle's top 3 tips:
1. Stop talking and listen to your teen.
2. Figure out the underlying issue with behaviors that arise.
3. Notice the negative pattern and do something different.

Do you ever talk yourself out of the dreams that you have or the goals that you set for yourself? Do you struggle to trust yourself or second guess the decisions that you make? Do you find yourself sabotaging yourself again and again no matter how many times you think this time will be different? If you're like many of the hundreds of women I’ve coached over the past 13 years, let me reassure you that there’s nothing wrong with you. It’s actually the programming in your subconscious mind that needs a reboot.
Keegan White is a Mindset Coach who teaches heart-centered women in business how to overcome self-doubt so that they can make more money and have a bigger impact. Combining her experience in long term recovery from drugs and alcohol, meditation and mindfulness trainings, she is an expert on women’s inner dialogue, reprogramming the brain, and overall well-being.
Keegan's 3 top tips:
1. The importance of learning to trust yourself after active addiction no matter what phase of recovery you are in.
2. The key to unlocking your ability to stop struggling and second guessing yourself lies in your subconscious mind and that once you shift your core belief about yourself anything is possible.
3. That negative voice in your head is a part of you but not the whole sum of you.

Lights out, blinds drawn, door locked, phone off, I curled up in a fetal position under the desk in my office. I kept asking myself, “Skip, what are you doing? How did you get here?” I thought, “What happened? I’m a tough guy. I’ve been in the Army 25 years, I’m a Colonel, physician, deployed 30 months in combat zones, and endured many hardships. I’m a National Wrestling Champion. I’m tough!” Over the next four hours, I wrestled with these questions. Utterly broken, I finally admitted, “Skip, you’re depressed, go get some help!” April 17, 2014 was a new start.
Donald G. “Skip” Mondragon, MD, graduated from the Oral Roberts University School of Medicine and completed a residency in Internal Medicine at the Northeast Ohio University College of Medicine Affiliated Hospitals in Canton, Ohio. Colonel Mondragon is a twenty-six-year Army veteran, spent thirty months in combat zones, and is a National Veterans Wrestling Champion. Skip became a casualty of depression and as he recovered, was called to advocate for men struggling with this dark disease by speaking and writing. He is the author of Wrestling Depression Is Not For Wimps! Skip and his wife, Sherry, reside in Midlothian, Texas.
Skip's 3 top tips:
1. Even tough guys get depressed! You’re not a wimp if you ask for help.
2. We all need a strong support system of family, friends, and faith.
3. God can take your mess and transform it into your message.
Skip can be reached on FB and Twitter @SkipWNW and through his website at www.wrestlingisnotforwimps.com
You can find his book on Google, Barnes and Noble, and on Amazon at www.amazon.com/author/skipmondragon
