Welcome to this week's show.
Have you ever stuck your foot in your mouth? We all have and my guest this week, Marie Dubuque, has some advice on how to smooth a situation like that over. That's just the tip of the ice berg when it comes my discussion this week with Marie. Marie specializes in the navigation of the social interactions we all encounter.
As ex-offenders, we already have a strike against us as we start new relationships, date, and generally move through our social lives. Marie Dubuque has some great advice and we touch on a variety of subjects during this week's interview.
After the show be sure and check out Marie's videos on You Tube along with the hundreds and hundreds of followers who have found her advice helpful.
Remember, if God is for you, who can be against you?
Welcome!
At what point in a platonic relationship should an ex-offender tell someone that they have been to prison? At what point in a romantic relationship should this be disclosed? How should one deal with a co-worker that holds animosity toward a felon?
These are only a few of the questions communication and relationship expert Dianne Sikel addresses on this edition of Journey of Hope With Rodney Mathers. This is an interesting show full of interesting ideas for the ex-offender.
You can find out more about Dianne after the show at Dianne Sikel.

This week's show is filled with some basic information about life at home. Coming home after a long prison stay opens one up to a refresher course on some skills that haven't been used in a while. Buying a car, buying a home, the basics of propane safety, and even a refresher course on the rules of food spoilage are the items this week's guest, Michele Sfakianos speaks on.
Her new book, The 411 0n Life Skills makes a great gift for someone returning home from incarceration. Michele touches on many of these topics and more during her interview on this week's edition of the show.

Pastor Donnel Morgan started his adult life in Louisiana's infamous Angola prison with a sentence that would have kept him there his entire life. Things didn't turn out that way though. He his now an author and successful minister of God.
How did he get from Angola to a successful life? Donnel Morgan's life story is fascinating for ex-offenders as it is full of ideas and suggestions on overcoming the worst kinds of adversity. He tells his story during his interview on this week's edition of the show.
"In every story of a man or women that has been able to put prison behind them and become a productive member of society, there is always some little tid-bit of advice or some idea I can put to use in my situation. It is my hope that my listeners are able to also get some ideas from stories like Donell's." states Journey of Hope host, Rodney Mathers.
