Today is so very significant to me.
Stolen By Their Father, the Lifetime Television movie based on my book, Pieces of Me: Rescuing My Kidnapped Daughters, premiers today. And it's 32 years to the day after leaving abuse behind, something to celebrate, indeed.
You will learn:

  • Happily Ever After is for fairy tales, but my family been so fortunate to live our lives reunited in a Happily Ever After sort of way.
  • In books and movies, not all characters can be identified for reasons of privacy, budget, and time. But the real heroes in my story were many, and spanned the globe.
  • Leaving abuse, like any other type of recovery, isn't a one-time event, but a process that requires patience and support. There are agencies and online groups offering help for those in need of help. In the US, for example, 1-800-799-SAFE or the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children are resources.

Gina Dobson grew up feeling different than the rest of her family. In a large bunch of academics, she was the child passionate about art. Bullied at school, she learned early on that it was okay to be different, and that those who demonstrate aggression are often people acting reflexively out of insecurity.
A singer and performer, Gina has also been an educator for more than 15 years. Her interest in scapegoating culminated to her recently published book, Stop: Scapegoat No More.
You will learn:

  • Being bullied often happens to the strong, not simply vulnerable people.
  • Writing about traumatic times can help unpack a lot of pain.
  • Not forgiving another can be compared to you drinking the poison and expecting the other person to die.

Persistence U with Lizbeth - Episode 22: Nelson BrownTalks Male Vulnerability and the Beauty In Us
play

07/21/21 • 24 min

Do you remember what you were doing at age 22?
As author and radio personality Nelson Brown approached his 22nd birthday, he spent part of his day with me recording from across country, talking about his third book in the series, The Beauty in Us.
Brown has already worked to sort issues of perfectionism in therapy, and is proud to share with other young people, especially young Black men such as himself, that being vulnerable and asking for support at times isn't simply acceptable, it's a path to creating a fulfilling future.
You will learn:

  • What inspired Nelson Brown's book series.
  • How time spent alone during the pandemic created space for reflecting and writing.
  • The importance of creating space to support men, both young and old, to have challenging and sometimes painful conversations.
