At just 8 years old, Kelly Wallace faced the unimaginableâtestifying in court against her own grandfather, a man who committed the heinous act of sexual abuse. Her story is a stark reminder of the silent battles that many face, hidden behind the closed doors of seemingly ordinary homes.
Kelly's journey is not just one of survival, but of unwavering courage and the pursuit of healing. As an alcoholic in recovery since 2001, she confronts the overlooked correlation between addiction and the trauma of sexual abuse. With raw honesty, Kelly discusses the ongoing challenges of trust and the complexities of family dynamics, especially when those who should protect you become the perpetrators.
In a poignant conversation that spans the personal to the systemic, Kelly reveals the inadequacies of a legal system that often fails the innocent, the generational cycles of abuse, and the power of speaking one's truth. Her voice is a clarion call for awareness, change, and the empowerment of survivors everywhere.
Join us as we dive into a narrative that, while difficult, is necessary for shedding light on the shadows of abuse and the strength it takes to stand against it. Kelly's story is a testament to the human spirit's capacity to fight back and forge a path towards a brighter, more just future.

Have you ever wondered what it's like to walk a mile in someone else's shoes? To drum to the beat of a different life?
In this heart-to-heart episode of Better Call Daddy, John, affectionately known as Jive, and one of my favorite podcasters shares his unconventional life journey. From the young age of 14, he found himself navigating the harsh realities of homelessness, which later fueled his passion for helping those on the streets. Despite the trials, John's spirit remains unbreakable as he shares his candid thoughts on marriage, parenting, and the pursuit of purpose over fleeting happiness.
As a father estranged from two of his sons, John reveals the complexities of family dynamics and the lingering impact of his own parents' divorce. His philosophy? Power over force, and attraction over pursuit. He believes in the transformative power of facing hostility head-on, embracing the chaos, and finding the rhythm in life's fickle beat.
John's reflections are a raw and real testament to the resilience of the human spirit. Join us as we explore the lessons learned from the school of hard knocks and the quest for authentic connection in a world that often turns a blind eye to its most vulnerable.

Today's guest, Helene Beck recently celebrated her 100th episode on her very own podcast, Coming from the Heart. I love her enthusiasm for hosting the show, her motivation to inspire exercise, and her profound passion for music.
Her love for music began at a young age, as she would sing along to commercials and mimic songs she heard. This passion for music led her to take lessons when she was around 10 or 11 years old.
She continued to nurture her musical talent by listening to albums and singing along to artists like Stevie Wonder and Billy Joel, forming a deep connection to singing and music early on.
She remained involved in music, participating in choir and pursuing music voice lessons at a studio in Hoboken. She took her musical endeavors seriously, recording at a studio in Brooklyn, a professional environment where even Lady Gaga had recorded.
Despite her busy schedule and teaching career, Helene always found solace in music and expressed a desire to return to singing and recording, recognizing the therapeutic and fulfilling nature of music in her life.
Helene's experiences with music highlight its significant role in her life, from childhood singing to professional recording sessions. Music has been a constant source of joy, expression, and creativity for her, shaping her identity and providing a means of emotional release and connection.
Helene's mother had a profound impact on shaping her values and passions. As a reading recovery teacher dedicated to education, the mother instilled a strong sense of community service in the speaker. Going above and beyond in her role, she bought supplies for students and gave back to the community, inspiring the her own actions and choices.
Her mother's commitment to education was evident in her journey, where she aspired to pursue a career in science but settled for being a lab technician due to financial constraints.
Despite this, she later went back to school in her forties to pursue her educational goals, showcasing resilience and determination. This perseverance likely influenced the Helene's own pursuit of passions and continuous learning.
Helene's admiration for her mother's dedication to education and community service is evident in her own actions, such as collaborating with the Hoboken Shelter and advocating for mental health awareness.
The values instilled by her mother have translated into a passion for giving back to the community and making a positive impact, reflecting a deep-rooted influence that continues to shape the Helene's choices and endeavors.
Helene's father, a school principal, had a strong sense of humor and used it as a coping mechanism, especially during challenging times. Despite facing illness and tough situations, he maintained a humorous outlook.
For example, even when in the hospital, he would use humor and sarcasm to lighten the mood. This ability to find humor in challenging times not only helped Helene's father cope but also influenced her own perspective on dealing with adversity.
She mentions that her father's humor was a way to release tension and bring levity to difficult moments, showing that laughter can be a powerful tool for resilience and emotional well-being. This aspect of her father's personality highlights the importance of finding joy and humor even in the face of adversity, emphasizing the value of maintaining a positive outlook and using humor as a coping mechanism in tough times.
Describing my dad as an embellisher and creator, she had her question for my dad prepared: Does he perceive a change in awareness surrounding mental health?
Her father adhered to the mentality of enduring hardships without expressing emotions, reflecting the stark generational differences. Despite this, she recalls a rare moment of seeing him cry upon losing his own father.
Have you ever felt alone, searching for answers?
Coming From The Heart Podcast is a safe space to share your experiences, expertise, and powerful messages of introspectiveness, hope, and love. Join us on the journey of self-exploration through a wide range of topics and discussions with diverse guests from around the world.We heal one heart at a time
In June 2020, in the height of the pandemic Helene launched the Coming From The Heart Podcast, an inspirational platform addressing mental health, mindfulness, never feeling alone and overcoming challenges. Her momentum to begin the podcast stemmed from her own mental health struggles with vertigo. What Helene did not realize at the time is that mind and body are synchronized and that going through personal trauma affects the body as much as the mind.
By determining to find her own voice, and dimmed light, she seeked to find a community to rekindle her passion and courage. Coming From The Heart Podcast, continues to be Heleneâs healing journey, for it is her story that embodies strength and resiliency. Her story began by walking the beautiful beaches of the Jersey shore that allowed her to inhale the sea breezes, collect sand in her shoes, and to connect with nature. Coming back home allowed her to plunge forward with strength, courage and extraordinary tenacity.
Four years later she continues to chase stories with incredible voices of celebrities and communities of others who share a common mental health thread to empower, heal, spread kindness and change the world with sparks of hope and love. Helene believes in the 5 Câs of mental health: Commitment, Communication, Concentration, Control, and Confidence, evident in every facet of her being!
https://linktr.ee/coming_fromtheheartpodcast
In December 2024, Helene launched Perspective Power Moves, PPM
As former international graduate professor, Helene supported many with her incredible intuitiveness and ability to support career journeys with a mental health spin. Her insight to market your personal story has gifted her with the ability to share insight assisting many in securing positions with renowned technical companies, including Uber, Google, Apple, and Tesla.
Her perseverance and unique ability to reshape personal stories became her âsecret sauceâ in guiding others through the competitive job market. Ultimately, Helene believes in cultivating comfort and confidence in individuals, especially during their journey to find the right professional position. What she believes is that 99% of the search is within ourselves, and all we need is the support motivation and confidence to plunge forward, that is where Helene comes in!

Absolutely everything is possible, and it can genuinely happen at any stage of life. Can an average individual, when exposed to sports, entrepreneurship, or business education, grasp these concepts? If one finds pleasure in these pursuits, they can craft an exciting future. Age should never be a barrier; you're never too young to start.
At just 16 years old, Deven Wohlwend is not your average teenager. He's already an accomplished author of three books, a savvy real estate investor owning 46 units and running a management company than runs 450, and has a deep passion for educating his peers on business and investing.
Deven's journey began with early lessons in stock investments influenced by his parents, and fun games like Lego investing, which taught him as much about losses as gains. Despite his business acumen, Deven knows the value of enjoying youth, balancing professionalism with times to just be a kid.

The Wohlwendâs, after starting with nothing, used millions of dollars of private moneyfrom more than 100 private lenders to finance their real estate deals. As their two boys grew up they were taught the business. By 5 each son started investing; by 7 years old they had each bought their 1st piece of real estate using only creative financing; the lessons they learned.
Their kids, Deven, now 16 controls over 46 units; Ethan, who is currently 13, hasalmost 40 units. Neither used any money or credit from their parents. They did what the whole family teaches. They were creative and took action. In addition to working in the business and investing, Deven published his first book when he was 11. He has been interviewed on many podcasts that have been listened to in more than 190 countries; has spoken to live audiences in more than half a dozen states. Deven is the #1 Best-Selling Author of The Garage and If I Can Do It So Can You-How I Started Buying Real Estate at Age 7. The 2nd Book in his Garage series The Fall And Rise of Atlas is now available on Amazon.

- The power of family: A supportive and educational family environment can be a tremendous asset on the road to success.
- Balance is crucial: Even when you're ambitiously pursuing success, it's important to remember the value of fun and personal fulfillment in your life and work.

Ever wondered how authors conjure up the worlds that enthrall us?
Today, we have the pleasure of welcoming Ann Diament Koffsky, an award-winning author and illustrator, who brings a wealth of experience and heartfelt stories.
From teaching art in a bomb shelter in Israel to confronting the omission of women's faces in ultra-orthodox media, Anne's journey is as inspiring as it is impactful.
In today's conversation, Anne peels back the layers of her creative process, influenced by her roles as a teacher and a parent, and shares her approach to embedding valuable lessons into her books. We'll also delve into her American Jewish family's story of achieving the dream across generations, her rally against anti-Semitism, and her efforts to give back to the community.
Anne's relatable struggle with her creative muse during tough times, her gratitude for parental support, and her mission to preserve legacies through storytelling promise to resonate with many of our listeners. We'll also uncover how Anne instills Jewish pride and strength within her work, amidst discussions of current geopolitical issues and generational trauma.
So, let's dive in and learn from Anne's journey of nurturing creativity, facing adversity head-on, and the importance of crafting stories that speak to both the young and young at heart. Get ready, dads, daughters, and everybody in between â it's time to Better Call Daddy!

Plus, Paul's got a unique perspective on healing, overcoming trauma, and how love and compassion can lead to global change. His upcoming book, "Are You Listening?" promises to be a testament to that belief, showing how one's connection to a higher power can influence and inspire.
And listeners, don't forget â today's stories aren't just for your ears. They're a call for all of us to value and protect our children and future generations. As always, we're determined to make a stand and spread truth, love, and healing.
