  • Authentic Parenting | Anna Seewald
    Nov 15 2018

    Our guest today is Anna Seewald, M. Ed, a wife, a mom, an author, a speaker, a photographer, a podcaster, an educator, a lifelong learner and the founder of Authentic Parenting. Authentic Parenting is her business and podcast and it's all about parenting from the heart.

    Anna lost her mother in a severe earthquake in Armenia in 1988 when she was only 13, and her father became her sole caregiver. She always had a great relationship with her father who was very emotional, encouraging, and understanding, but through this tragedy, they grew even closer.

    Anna came to America when she was 27 with her father's full blessing, after receiving a scholarship from the U.S. State Department. Her father remains a supportive champion in her life to this day.

    She described her father's parenting style as authentic and from him and through her studies and casework Anna developed her business and podcast, Authentic Parenting, where she is a divorce mediator who also teaches parenting classes, both selective and court-ordered.

  • Awesomeness Comes From Awesomeness | Robert Bullock
    Nov 8 2018

    Our guest today is Robert Bullock. Robert grew up on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi giving him his southern roots.  At an early age, Robert possessed a strong interest in anything fashion related and with his drive and passion he became a successful designer, with an expertise in draping, pattern making, and sewing. His current company, Robert Bullock Bride, has been his most fulfilling business to date, both personally as well as professionally. Robert has lived in NYC for the past 30 years. He is an activist for human rights and equality. He also volunteers at Best Friends Animal Shelter, being an advocate for the animals who need him to fight for their rights as well.

    Jonathan and Robert discuss the unusual and amazing connection between the death of Robert's father and his future son. After his father's passing, Robert was looking for a place to just relax and have a few minutes by himself. It was at a local restaurant where Robert met Oscar, who would later become his son.

    They discuss how Oscar showed up in New York City and how he and Robert developed a father/son relationship that has changed his life in so many ways. Not thinking he would ever be a father before this, Robert has embraced the fortuitous gift he was given after telling his father (to the sky), "Old man, you better do me right from the other side."
