Journey of Hope With Rodney Mathers (88)
Hello! Welcome to episode 88 of Journey of Hope With Rodney Mathers.
My guest this week, Jillian Bullock, was the daughter of mobster and she followed his lifestyle throughout her early life. Prostitution and drugs were the norm for her along with a series of other really bad choices. There was a point where she decided to change both her thinking and her lifestyle and move her life down a more positive path. Jillian is now a successful woman and on this week's show, we discuss the transformation that took place in her life.
By listening to the interview, I think you may find some tips on how to sustain the transformation you are making in your life right now.

Jennifer Maggio was a victim of childhood sexual abuse and had multiple teen pregnancies. If one had to predict in those days what her life would be like, I doubt anyone would have predicted the success she has enjoyed as a mother, wife, and through her ministry for single mothers.
Jennifer hasn't let the seemingless endless odds get in the way of moving forward and away from a diffulcult past. This is why I respect Jennifer so very much. She is without a doubt a "go getter" and a role model for those of us looking to put the past behind us refusing to let that past be an obsticle to a full and productive future.
For all of you single parents out there, she is an expert by experience and loves to share how she handled raising children while working and attending college.
Check out her web page for some free materials. http://www.jennifermaggio.com/

Welcome to this week's episode!
Do you let your felony conviction get in the way of realizing your dreams? I certainly hope not. I do realize however that it is easy to fall into the trap of letting the past consume us.
I don't do that anymore, but believe me, I useed to. I actually now see my situation as providing me with some opportunities that I most likely wouldn't have been able to persue had I never gone to prison.
If you haven't reached that point in your thinking or you just need a little encouragement ( we all need a little encouragement from time to time), then my interview this week with noted author Jim Donovan is for you. Jim wrote the best seller This Is Your Life Not A Dress Rehearsal and he has some great thoughts for ex-offenders.

Welcome to this week's episode!
Marriage after incarceration can be rough. My guests this week, Rev. Dr. Daniel and Penny Loosenort have written an excellent book that addresses issues like spousal roles, finances, and how to resolve conflict in a marriage. Even though Dr. Loosenort and Penny have not been incarcerated, their book is full of fantastic advice that can be used to most definately help a marriage after a period of incarceration.
Their book, We Promise is fantastic and I highly recommend it.

Welcome to this week's episode of Journey of Hope With Rodney Mathers!
Sometimes it's nice to hear how other people have overcome the adversity in their lives. We can look at just how they did it and maybe even find some tidbits of information that we can apply to our situation and struggles.
My guest this week, Donna Rinelli, has overcome adversity basically on her own and has written a book called Breath of a Child.
Of the dozens of self-help authors I have had on the show, Donna best nails it in my view. I really like how she focuses on healing through examining the past, then letting go of it. It's an effective way to get past incarceration because we should never forget what it was we did, but nevertheless, it's alright to put those days in our rear view mirror!
