Available for Interviews: Glenn Matecun.

Glenn R. Metecun, CELA, is certified as an Elder Law Attorney by the National Elder Law Foundation. He is also an expert in the estate planning space. Here are some talking points on how why estate planning is particularly important to women.

 

  • Wills are not just for the wealthy. Wills are not just for “old people” (whatever “old” means nowadays). Women of all ages should have a Will as part of their comprehensive estate plan.

91-Year-Old’s Secret “Habit” Turns into Bestseller…

Jacqueline Gellens Watson’s Life With OCD

The following is an excerpt from the new book The Habit, by Jacqueline Gellens Watson.

In the 1930s and 1940s, mental  illness was not widely accepted as a reality in America. When I was a child, I developed a mental condition, later called obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), due to prior circumstances in my life. I couldn’t understand what I was going through. I first noticed it when I was reading the book, Lorna Doone. I couldn’t understand some of the passages. I would fixate on them and go over and over them in my mind, trying to understand the meaning of the words. Continue reading “91-Year-Old’s Secret “Habit” Turns into Bestseller…”

Five Ways To Eliminate Pre-Wedding Conflict

Interview Carol Barkes

The following are some talking points that Carol Barkes can discuss and expand on on the topic of eliminating pre-wedding conflict:

  1. Tell the people you care about that you are struggling and try to help them understand what you are struggling about and why. 
  2. Seek the help of “content experts” who can help you make the best decisions with the least amount of time and effort. 
  3. Remember the bigger picture.  This is supposed to be one of the most amazing moments of your life.  If you get stuck in the trenches of planning, you will miss the lovely little wonders along the way.
  4. Minimize negative people from your day-to-day life.  These people can cause toxic stress and reduce your ability to effectively manage the challenges of planning.
  5. Take time to be quiet and still so your brain can help you resolve issues that arise.  When we get quiet, our brains have the opportunity to reboot and combine information for brilliant solutions we wouldn’t have had if we power through without pausing.

PTSD Symptoms in Women: Unnoticed and Undiagnosed

Interview Colleen Cira

Dr. Colleen Cira is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist who specializes in Women and Trauma, so she has worked with hundreds of people struggling with PTSD or Complex PTSD. Here are a few talking points on the subject of PTSD:

Why is it harder for women to admit they have the disorder?

  • If I may, I’d like to rewind back for a second because a lot of women simply don’t know they have PTSD!  Women often internalize—it means instead of searching for answers in their world or circumstance, they assume that something is wrong with THEM.  So they might not attribute their own thoughts, feelings or behaviors to something that happened to them because they just figure this is who they are.
