(Observing the One Year Anniversary of “Shattered Lives” Radio Show)
February 4, 2012 to the present…. One year of wonderment… education, passion, tears, laughter and helping many, many people…. Where do I begin? It has been… and continues to be immensely rewarding. It is a heck of a lot of work… But most of all, this groundbreaking show is a true pleasure and a labor of love. It helps to feed Ladyjustice’s insatiable intellectual curiosity and creativity… and keeps her out of trouble…most of the time!
As they say on the Award shows, “I wish I had time to thank each and every person in a special way.” However, I do not… The best way to thank everyone is to continue to do this work as a public service…and to honor my father, who was murdered by a career criminal almost 32 years ago…
With the exception of my mentors in this venture, I can only list the guests: “stars appearing in my constellation.”
*** I encourage you to please go to the archives, enjoy and learn from all of them!
- Susan Murphy-Milano – My mentor and dear friend, motivator who pushed me beyond my limits, who saw the possibilities when I didn’t…whose voice is still in my head and forever in my heart. I hope she would be proud of me and this milestone;
- Delilah Jones – the master PR professional, jovial co-host, dear friend, compassionate caretaker, “mother hen” and invaluable resource, I thank her for all that she has given over and above her prescribed role…. My life would not be the same without her presence and guidance;
