Joined by her dog Cheetah (yes, really 🐾), Tara shares the real story behind starting her salon, the risks she took, and how she figured it out along the way.

She gets it done… even if she’s a little bit of a hot mess doing it 💛 This one is honest, funny, and a reminder that sometimes the magic happens in the mess.

Alongside the legacy of her late husband and original co-author Richard Carlson, Kristine shares how the simple principles from the bestselling books still resonate in today’s fast-paced, overwhelmed world.

In this powerful and insightful episode, we sit down with Kelly Dyckman and Andrea Cernero who co-founded Haven for Healing, a psychotherapy practice in Shrewsbury, New Jersey, sharing the journey of how collaboration, clarity of roles, and a shared mission turned their dream into reality. They open up about what it truly takes to build a mental health practice from the ground up, how they identified their individual strengths, and why coming together as partners allowed them to better serve their community. From business alignment to trust and communication, their story offers inspiration for women considering entrepreneurship or partnership-based ventures. The conversation also dives deep into the mental health challenges facing today’s children and teens, including anxiety, social pressures, emotional regulation, and the lasting effects of recent societal changes. The founders share what they are seeing firsthand in their practice and how early intervention and family support can make a meaningful difference. Additionally, we explore the unique stressors impacting working moms, from burnout and guilt to balancing career, parenting, and personal well-being. With compassion and clinical insight, they discuss how therapy can provide support, coping tools, and space for healing in an increasingly demanding world.

In this imaginative and inspiring episode, we sit down with emerging author Kristie Ferrugiaro, creator of the fantasy adventure series The Saga of the Selenixies, a captivating new world written to empower young readers through storytelling. Kristie introduces us to the Selenixies — mystical beings once united by an ancient crystal fortress until its destruction sent them scattering across different worlds. Separated from one another, stripped of their powers, and challenged by dark forces, the Selenixies must complete seven trials to restore their strength, rebuild trust in the Universe, and reunite before time runs out. Kristie shares how the story was inspired during COVID, as she watched her three sons create incredible mythical worlds at home using Tonka trucks, toys, and pure imagination. What began as imaginative play during an uncertain time became the foundation for a richly layered fantasy series rooted in creativity, connection, and resilience. More than just a fantasy novel, The Saga of the Selenixies explores powerful themes of teamwork, friendship, resilience, self-belief, and perseverance — showing young readers that the trials they face in life help shape who they become. Kristie also discusses her creative process, how she builds immersive worlds for children, and why stories that highlight cooperation and empowerment are more important than ever. This episode is perfect for parents, teachers, librarians, young readers, and aspiring authors looking for meaningful children’s fantasy books that blend adventure with emotional growth. Kristie’s work reminds us that we are strongest when we support one another — on the page and in real life.
In this heartfelt and inspiring episode, we sit down with Darcy Santora, the creator of Darcy’s List, a rapidly growing Instagram community that helps families discover fun, safe, and kid-friendly places in New Jersey and beyond. Darcy shares the deeply personal origin of Darcy’s List — a moment that began in the NICU with her third baby, when a nurse encouraged her to write down all the fun things she dreamed of doing with her child once they were home. What started as a simple list to cope became a powerful outlet for hope — and eventually evolved into a trusted resource for thousands of parents navigating life with kids. With a background in marketing, Darcy explains how her platform grew organically by focusing on authenticity, consistency, and genuine connection. She brings her audience along as she explores family-friendly destinations, indoor and outdoor activities, and local hidden gems — primarily across New Jersey, but increasingly expanding to nearby states and travel destinations.
