All right welcome to the weekly pep talk. I think I must start releasing these at night

Would that be okay with you? And we do them like Sunday night doesn't make a much of a difference because for me

I'm like try to take a full Saturday off

And like not work for one day out a week

So let me know if you listen to this you're like it's too late

I want to wait to listen to it when I woke up then let me know either way

weekly pep talk is five minute pep talks typically and

Doesn't kind of feel good motivational story from my mom just to kind of get you

Well something just to get you pep pumped up for the week. Give me something to think about her motivated or whatever

So that today she's telling a story about a woman that she met over in rainbow village where she used to be

It's a transitional housing program for women. She used to run for almost 25 years and just her story

Hopefully that story will motivate you and the weekly pep talk next

Hello, it's Nancy and I am thinking today of rainbow village and

A wonderful young woman named Talia and this is Talia's story in her own words

And I want to share it with you today and hopes that it will inspire you as well

she says

That she and her brother older brother and her mother

lived at rainbow village and they are now graduates from the rainbow village program

Before the program my mom and dad were at a very low place

Not only financially, but mentally and emotionally too

Back then there was so many more reasons to be angry with very little to be happy about

in due time my parents
