Randi Goldberg is a senior Resource Specialist with Archer law offices. She comes to us from the BW NICE Mercer chapter. She shared a lot with us about how to navigate the health care field for seniors.

Randi made us see that there's a lot more to it than we realized.

Part hand-holder, part social worker, and always client advocate, Randi understands the unique needs of seniors and the sometimes tricky family dynamics involved.

Most importantly, she taught us how important it is to have a plan before there is a crisis.

We enjoyed talking to Jennifer Gardella so much because she survived a difficult situation and is now sharing her story to help others.

Jennifer is a Social Media Consultant and Author. She helps small businesses with their marketing and social media presence, and has a new service, Your Social Media Hour. She is the owner of The Gardella Group.

She was also the victim of domestic abuse and she didn't even know it!

She taught us that some women might not even know they are in an abusive situation. They might not be physically abused, but they are on an emotional roller coaster as their abuser showers them with affection and then mistreats them. This pattern can escalate and the victim needs to get out, but it may be hard for her to do that.

Jennifer has written a book called "Listen for the Whispers of Abuse," in the hopes that victims and their loved ones can learn about how to deal with abuse that may not be obvious at first.

Her book is available on Amazon:

Lisa Brown has had a varied educational background. She wanted to combine art with psychology, but back when she was searching for a program like that, none existed. She ended up making her own programs and through the years has worked with seniors, kids, cancer survivors and people who are grieving.

Her approach is so interesting -- she starts most people with collages, and students tear out pictures from magazines to assemble the collage. She also works with two-handed journaling, so that people can "get out of their heads" and discover what they are trying to say using their intuition.

Lisa offers a variety of programs and workshops. She is currently working on developing a certificate program too.

We had a fascinating conversation with Lisa, and we hope you will enoy it!
