“Growing up, I never knew what to expect. One day it all came to a head. My mom pulled us around her in her bedroom. She put a gun to her head and threatened to shoot herself. I was scared, but not because I thought she would die, but because under my breath I whispered, “just do it!”
For women (and men) who experienced a painful past and want to not only find healing, but unpack harmful parenting baggage to give their kids a greater legacy.

Focus on the Family Broadcast
I will be interviewed by LuAnne Crane of Focus on the Family each weekend in February. I hope you tune in as I talk about issues such as letting go of the past, forgiveness, shaping our children’s memories, gaining new perspective, unpacking unhealthy parenting baggage, helpful and practical tools to give your children stability, love, and a safe and loving home.
You can learn more about this program when you visit the website at http://listen.family.org/weekend. If you hit the “Listen Now” link, you’ll be able (eventually) to hear the program online; or if you hit the “Find a Station” link you’ll be directed to a series of pull-down menus that will reveal where you can listen to the broadcast in your local area.
I will be in Escondido, California this weekend teaching a workshop for moms on The Mom I Want to Be at Hearts at Home Mom’s Day Out conference. It’s not too late to register if you are in the San Diego area.
