Oksana's parents were both 'conscripted' into being slave labor for the Nazis. They weren't in a concentration camp, so we've never heard of them. But there were more people forced into slave labor during the war than were killed in camps. This is a side of the war rarely (if ever) discussed. It's time that changed.Get this author’s book: ⁠https://www.amazon.com/shop/detailedpieces/list/IVJ5YU6UP2ZS?ref_=aip_sf_cur_spv_ofs_d⁠Find this guest online:  https://sunflowersrarelybreak.com/https://www.instagram.com/okukurudza2/https://www.facebook.com/oksana.kukurudza.71https://www.linked…

When Maggie lost her mother it was after a long bout of mental health issues that left Maggie with some C-PTSD, but a longing heart to see her mom again. It's obvious that Maggie truly adored her mother, and miraculously was able to differentiate between her mother's love and her mother's mental illness. Now a film maker, poet, author, and more, Maggie is on a mission to spread the message: Mental illness doesn't define you. Get this author’s book: https://www.amazon.com/shop/detailedpieces/list/IVJ5YU6UP2ZS?ref_=aip_sf_cur_spv_ofs_dFind this guest online:  link to audiobook: https://o…

I'm doing something a bit different for Christmas Eve this year. Last year I read the traditional "Night Before Christmas" poem written by Clement Clarke Moore on December 23rd of 1823. The original poem remained anonymous until 1837 when it appeared in the New York Book of Poetry credited to Clement Clarke Moore - a wealthy Manhattan biblical scholar who lived from July 1779 to July 1863.This year I read a second version too - a version written by the nuns of Sisters of St. Thomas. Very little else is known about this version.
