Do You Know How to Get Out of an Abusive Situation Safely?

Kelly J. Stigliano grew up in a quiet Amish town in Ohio in the 1970s and was always searching for excitement. A handsome young musician, home from the U.S. Navy, shared his drugs, music, and experiences beyond her naivete. How could she have known that behind this charming facade hid a misogynist, eager to take control of her life?

Kelly progressed from being a rebellious teenager to the position of an abused spouse. Having been hit in the head and told she was worthless had taken a toll and she felt helpless and hopeless.  

Kelly J. Stigliano is an author, speaker, and survivor of abuse whose mission is to help women who are in an abusive domestic situation, leave safely without harming anyone in their family.  She is also a volunteer for the First Coast Women's Services, a pregnancy resource center. 

In Kelly's interview, she discusses how women find themselves in domestic abuse situations, how it's not as easy to leave as one might think, and how with God it is possible to leave safely without harming anyone. 

When I asked Kelly what motivates her to help women, she responded:

"I had always seen my past as a string of stupid, embarrassing mistakes to be kept to myself. One day in 1986, I stood in the church foyer comforting a mother whose teenage daughter only communicated in anger, threatened to run away, and threatened to kill herself. In obedience to what I felt the Lord told me, I opened the door to my past a tad, sharing a tiny bit of my tumultuous teen years. Having me, the Christian school principal’s wife and mother of two elementary kids, share that one sliver of fact literally made her contact lens pop out of her eye! I think that was a good thing. She hugged me and thanked me for giving her and her husband hope. I’ve been sharing my story in various forms since then."

Kelly's stories have been published in magazines, e-zines, and thirteen anthologies including three Chicken Soup for the Soul editions. Her memoir, Praying for Murder, Receiving Mercy: From At-Risk to At Peace; My Journey from Fear to Freedom has touched lives across the globe. 

Having been hit in the head and told she was worthless took a toll on Kelly and made her feel helpless and hopeless. During her interview, she shares that no matter what type of abusive situation you find yourself in, you can change your circumstances once and for all.

Kelly's memoir tells her full story and one you will want to share with anyone who may be in an abusive situation. More than just a story it will help anyone to learn to identify at-risk relationships, discover ways to help single mothers, and see how forgiveness can change lives.

Praying for Murder, Receiving Mercy: From At-Risk to At Peace; My Journey from Fear to Freedom has epoch song references, fun 1970s dialogue, supernatural events, and relatable circumstances. Praying for Murder, Receiving Mercy is relevant, real, and right.

Do You Believe Anything is Possible if You Are Determined?

From the slums of Chicago to the hills of Hollywood, to legendary Carnegie Hall, award-winning actress, author, and teacher Susan Slavin has always triumphed over adversity.

Susan’s story touched me deeply and affected me for days afterward. What she endured and overcame in her life is an inspiration to everyone. When you listen to her remarkable interview, stay tuned until the end – cry with her, rejoice with her.

Born into abject poverty (one dinner roll to feed a family of six) and a family crippled by severe mental illness, Susan created miracles in her own life and the lives of others against all odds.

Starting with her scholarship to the famed Chicago Art Institute at age 12, then following her dream of becoming an actress to Hollywood in her early teens, Susan quickly became a working actress, winning numerous awards.

There, she was discovered by and worked with legendary director Jerome Robbins, (“A revelation…. the best actress I’ve come across.”).  He then summoned her to NYC where she built a critically acclaimed body of work, (“Stands out among the rest…” NY TIMES), as an actress in film, TV, and onstage. 

She demonstrated great range in works from zany comedy to high drama, to the classics, and everything in between.  She played roles that stretched the gambit from innocence to worldly-wise---from the homeless, to proper professionals, to upscale high-style glamour.  She co-starred opposite such stars as Glenn Close, Martin Sheen, Jean Smart, Maureen Stapleton, and Burt Reynolds. 

While continuing her acting career, she also branched out into teaching, founding her namesake school,” Susan Slavin Actors and Singers Academy at Carnegie Hall.

As an author, Susan’s story of transcending a mentally ill family was published in “Chicken Soup for the Soul, Life Lessons for Loving the Way You Live”, and “The Soul of Success” (an anthology documenting stories of notable women who have achieved success by using their feminine attributes to transform adversity into triumph.

As a playwright, Susan has written three plays, including innovating a new art form in her one-woman play Motherlove in which she also acted. Acting in her play, The Other Side of Dear, she introduced 18 pieces of her artwork—each 12 feet high—to tell the story.  (“A virtuoso performance.”)   

AND.........

As she continues her lifelong passionate journey as an actress, she and her husband, bestselling author, and legendary image guru David Kibbe have also joined forces to transform people’s lives innovatively. Using his revolutionary “Image Identity System” which defines and executes each person’s snowflake rarity in an inner and outer physical way, they give their clients original fast-track tools to truly heal and fly towards realizing their dreams.

Susan's STIMULATING interview will excite and motivate you. We discussed:

Create your life by design - not by default

Nothing is impossible 

The Power of Desire

Dream Big - Start Small

Dare to DREAM

The Power of Forgiveness

LOVE CONQUERS ALL

NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE

Is it possible to be happy all the time? For most of us, happiness comes and goes. Life may bring pleasure one day and pain the next. But what if you could love your life no matter what the circumstances? It's possible--and Life Lessons for Loving the Way You Live shows you how.

How Do You Cope with Shock, Debilitating Loss, or Fear?

How do you cope with shock or fear? Do you have the inner strength when you feel like there is none left? Faith Wilcox was able to find moments that were good – even when her daughter was near the end of her life and as a mother, she was shredded apart by the grief of losing her daughter, her marriage, and life as she knew it.

Faith Fuller Wilcox believes that self-expression through writing leads to healing. Her writing is reflective of a growing body of medical research about 'narrative identity,' which illuminates that how we make sense of what happens to us and the meaning we give to experiences beyond our control directly impacts our physical and psychological outcomes. 

Faith learned this firsthand when her 13-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, was diagnosed with rare bone cancer that took her life. 

Faith also leads a journal writing program at a pediatric hospital for patients and their families designed to allow participants the opportunity to express themselves, alleviate stress, celebrate victories, and honor their grief. 

In her interview, Faith shares how she went from a mother in despair to a mother who had hope for the future. Through sharing her story, especially to those who have suffered a great loss, she wants you to know that life can continue after grieving and even be good. We can learn to live with sadness and joy side-by-side.

Hope Is a Bright Star is the story of a mother’s journey from shock and fear at her young daughter’s cancer diagnosis, to anguish and despair at her death just a year later and, finally, to peace and acceptance of her new life.

When 13-year-old Elizabeth is diagnosed with rare bone cancer, Faith is in awe of her courageous child, who faces her plight straight on and inspires all who meet her. Despite an army of medical professionals who provide innovative care for Elizabeth, she dies, and Faith and her surviving daughter, Olivia, are thrown into a maelstrom of grief. They find unexpected comfort in the arms of their family, friends, and community, but Faith faces another shock when she has her own cancer diagnosis while navigating the uncharted waters of a life she never expected. In time, Faith discovers moments and places of comfort and peace, and she slowly changes from a mother in despair to a woman with hope for the future. 

At turns heartbreaking and heartwarming, Hope Is a Bright Star reveals how abiding love can heal a family.

Hope Is a Bright Star made the ‘long list’ for the category Overcoming Adversity for the 2021 Chanticleer International Book Awards.

Facing Into the Wind - A Mother's Healing After the Death of her Child is a collection of poems written for parents and families who are coping with the death of a child. The poems are written about Elizabeth, her thirteen-year-old child, who battles a rare form of bone cancer, and her mother, Faith,  who struggles to survive after her daughter’s death.

Drawing upon metaphors with the natural world,  Faith remembers the transcending wisdom imparted by her dying daughter, healing Faith’s brokenness and awakening her strength to reach out and comfort others who are suffering.

CLICK HERE TO BUY FEARLESS DECISION

In the fall of 2009, at the age of 55, author David A. Stone reached the conclusion that anxiety, worry, and self-doubt were useless mental states. They felt awful, never improved the situation, depleted his health, and were roadblocks to achievement. So he decided to remove them from his life.

The list of things about which we worry is long and includes illness, financial ruin, loneliness and the opinions of others as just a few of the biggies. We also worry about paying the phone bill next month, whether that mole on your arm is getting any bigger, why my friend hasn’t liked my Instagram post, and what your mother will say if you go to Vegas with that guy for the weekend.

But what if you could deal with those, plus all the other challenges that come your way without the worry and anxiety? What would you do if you weren’t afraid? If you weren’t afraid to try, to fail, to be judged, to look foolish, and yes, even to succeed?

UNSUBSCRIBE FROM ANXIETY

Worry and anxiety are rampant. They feel terrible, degrade health, finances, relationships, and quality of life without ever improving the situation. David A. Stone writes that they do not have to be a fact of life and are, in fact, unconscious mental and emotional choices that have become habits that can be eliminated. 

This book gives readers practical steps to overcome fear, anxiety and worry, replacing those mental habits with better, more constructive ones, leading to peace of mind and happier life.

What Happens At the Con

Stays at the Con

The names and identities of all those involved have been absolutely omitted and will never see the light of day unless the person or persons involved in such acts wish to come forth on their own.

These stories have been told by those who were there or possibly second-hand. Judge for yourself what is true and what is quite possibly an extreme exaggeration. Some of the tellings of these stories have been spiced up and a certain amount of dramatic license has occurred, but nothing to take away from the very real stories themselves. For my part, I know some of these to be absolutely true. I was there...

Around the world, virtually every weekend, at hotels, colleges, and conventions centers, thousands of people get together to share a wondrous common bond - a love of all things Anime, Comics, Video Games, and Pop Culture.
