What if your mother is the person who brought a mu

What if your mother is the person who brought a murder suspect down? She'd obviously be a badass first and foremost but how would that affect you as her daughter? ⁠
⁠
Courtney Lund O'Neil's mother was the last person to see the final victim of John Wayne Gacy and the lead witness in the trial. Courtney wanted to learn all she could about what her mother experienced not only during that time but to look at how and why this experience carried on for her as a mother and how it was passed on to Courtney. ⁠
⁠
POSTMORTEM: WHAT SURVIVES THE JOHN WAYNE GACY MURDER TRIALS is out today! I went into this not knowing the full story of John Wayne Gacy and learning so much about his crimes, his victims and the trial. Fast forward to today and there are still victims who haven't been named because they lack the ability of being identified. People still send mail to his house, try to purchase his art and that leaves me with so many more questions. ⁠
⁠
I loved talking to Courtney and discovering why she wrote this book and what it means for her and her mom. ⁠

👩🏻‍🍳 It’s baking time! 🍪

🎁 Presents are wrapped, rum balls made, cookies are baking, we’ve looked at lights and visited 🎅 Santa.

Ever since my stepkids were small, I’ve had an Advent calendar that is filled with 25 things that range from a treat to an activity to doing something for others. I wanted to give my stepkids what I would to give kids of my own, so I did. And now I do the same for my kids.

Many years ago we started to bake treats and deliver them to our neighbors. It’s become our annual tradition!

I’m ahead this year with wrapping completely done but I have yet to get cards out…so I’m thinking New Year cards will just have to do!

Next up…Jeep ride for more lights, ice skating, watching our friends play hockey, more Christmas movies and delivering the cookies and rum balls!

I’m looking forward to downtime. We’ll watch more movies, read, play games and enjoy being together.

🎁 THE SMALL AND THE MIGHTY by @sharonsaysso is

🎁 THE SMALL AND THE MIGHTY by @sharonsaysso is an absolute gift! 🎁

I don’t normally post individual book reviews but this book is anything but normal. It’s extraordinary!

Like many, I have often wondered if what I do and say makes a difference. After all, I’m just one person. We read about those who have made their mark on the world and know their names but Sharon McMahon introduces us to people who made their mark in big ways yet most of us don’t know their names. They are the small. They are the mighty.

I checked out a copy from my library and then went ahead and ordered multiple copies to be delivered (you can buy one, get one half off on Amazon and Target right now!). This book needs to be on your bookshelf and read by every member of your family.

My review…

This book belongs on every bookshelf of every American and should be required reading. I cried. I was educated. I was enlightened. I was encouraged. Many names I recognized throughout the book while also learning new names and discovering what so many Americans did to help shape the world we live in today. Everyday people took a stand, fought for what was right, sacrificed for the better of others...all while being just like you and me.

Sharon McMahon has given us a true gift with this book. As someone who often asks what more can I do, this book has shown me that there’s a lot I can do. I feel such gratitude for those who have come before me, including Dan Inouye and Norm Mineta since they have San Jose ties. Reading about the many Black women who have fought for equal rights for decades and continue to fight leaves me breathless and in awe. These women are the strongest and I so appreciate each and every one of them.

I cried reading how it feels that history feels like it’s currently trying to repeat itself and how we need to be the small and mighty who stand up to ensure our country doesn’t go backwards and repeat itself. We know better, therefore we need to do better.

As I wrapped presents this morning, I thought abou

As I wrapped presents this morning, I thought about Rubi and Erin’s families and how they have presents to wrap for them but no longer have them to give the presents to.

Then I thought about who is funding the NRA and started to Google. Yes, the majority are the NRA members but then I found that the top private donor also used to own an aviation company that I did a lot of work with. I set up their fuel supply and saved the company a ton of money on fuel for their aircraft
.
If you hear me share what the biggest driving force was for me to leave corporate aviation, it’s that I didn’t feel like I was making a positive change in the world for my children’s future.

This is the evidence right here that I made the right decision.

I feel very strongly about not supporting the businesses of those who support things I don’t believe in or treat people in ways that go against my belief. I don’t eat at Chick Fil A, avoid Walmart at all costs, speak out against PG&E and more. I’m saddened to know that for years I unknowingly supported a business owner who was shoveling the savings I made for him to fund an organization that has no problem with the safety of my children at school being threatened and innocent children being murdered at school.

Listen to your gut. Do your research. Take a stand.

Join organizations and causes that are advocating for what you believe in. @momsdemand @everytown are great examples.

I’m not perfect and I’m learning along the way but I know my gut hasn’t steered me wrong and I will do my best to ensure that the businesses and people I align with also value what I value. The safety of children in schools is a top priority for me.

TW: adoption, infertility⁠ ⁠ NOT YOURS TO KEEP

TW: adoption, infertility⁠
⁠
NOT YOURS TO KEEP is a thriller in which a woman who gives up her child for adoption goes searching for her decades later, while an adoption social worker struggles with infertility and meets a birth mother who she thinks might have the perfect baby for her...oh the twists and turns and drama!⁠
⁠
Zelly Ruskin truly hit it out of the park with her debut novel and my stomach still turns into knots thinking about what I read!⁠
⁠
Zelly joined me to share how she came up with the book and how her previous job of being an adoption social worker played a part in this book. She's also sharing how later on she struggled with fertility issues and wonders if she could have done her job had she known. ⁠
⁠
I love Zelly and we've been lucky enough to meet almost a year ago in NYC and spend the day together. This was a blast to get to talk all about her book and the stories behind it!⁠

I’m now releasing two podcast episodes a week on My Simplified Life and already this month, we’ve talked about all of these topics!

These books were not only fun and entertaining to read, but they also brought to light meaningful issues that most of us experience. They were woven into the characters and storylines in beautiful ways that definitely had me feeling it was realistic and familiar.

Ep 257 BLUEBIRD DAY with Meg Tady
Ep 258 PICK UP with Nora Dahlia
Ep 259 NEW HAPPY with Stephanie Harrison
Ep 260 THE CHRISTMAS COUNTDOWN with Hannah Mary McKinnon (aka Holly Cassidy)
Ep 261 THE LAST SANDSTORM with Jasmin Faulk-Dickerson

My goal is to not only promote authors and books but to share life stories and talk about important topics and issues.

Oprah interviewed Claire Keegan last week and Claire shared how when we can’t feel sadness, we lack empathy. I want for each and every one of us to be able to feel when we hear the stories of others. If we can feel sad for what someone else has experienced, then we can empathize and start to understand.

Growing up in another country comes with very different cultural identities, influences and traditions that Americans aren't always familiar with. ⁠
⁠
Jasmin Faulk-Dickerson was born and raised in Saudi Arabia and lived there during the Gulf War. Although her parents were very progressive, she still lived with Saudi traditions outside of her house and to a certain extent, even within the walls of her home. ⁠
⁠
Jasmin details what it was like growing up in a country where women needed permission for most things, where mainstream media and shows weren't the norm and how war changed that. ⁠
⁠
Seeing friends whose ultimate goals were to all get married right away, Jasmin wanted more for herself. Ultimately, she left for America and has made an incredible life here with love and a family. As a social identity advocate she promotes gender equality, ethical equity, and social justice. ⁠
⁠
I'm so grateful to Matt Gilhooly of The Life Shift podcast for bringing Jasmin and I together and for Jasmin to share her story with all of us. Listening to the stories of others gives us a new insight into something we will never experience ourselves. This is why it's so important to read and listen to these stories...⁠
