One of the kindest, strongest souls I know comes from my step mom, Dianna Goodman. I've learned so much from this woman and would not be the same person without her in my life. She taught us about the power of listening, the importance of always doing the right thing and how it's never acceptable to underestimate or speak ill of anyone. I think you will all see just what a loving, kind, giving woman she is from this episode. Love you Mom.
This episode is near and dear to my heart and I will cherish it for years and years to come. Interviewing my Mom felt like the silliest thing, but so far it has been the most rewarding as I work on developing my skills in this endeavor. I love her spirit, spunk and silly stories and know exactly where I got my "can do" attitude from. Thanks Mom for always telling us that we can do anything we set our minds to. PS - I hope you all get a kick out of my mom's adorable accent.
