    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! 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. Check out this interview and all of our archived episodes at http://rodneymathers.podbean.com

    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. Journey of Hope With Rodney Mathers is a weekly podcast that addresses the issues faced by men and women after incarceration.

  • if you want to settle down, your chances of getting married or living with someone are probably highest in Great Britain, the Scandinavian countries and the United States. According to the study, men in those countries are more likely than their Australian counterparts to do the household chores and thereby make marriage a more attractive option to their nation's women.

  • "In the last 50 years, the U.S. population has seen an increase in their standard of living, such as having more money, owning more homes and cars and living longer. But our sense of meaning, purpose and satisfaction with life have not gone up, they have gone down,"
  • The effects can carry over to adulthood and cause early death, more health problems, less satisfaction with jobs and relationships and higher rates of depression
  • Penn Resiliency Program (PRP)
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • The PRP promotes optimism by teaching students to think more realistically and flexibly about the problems they encounter. PRP also teaches assertiveness, creative brainstorming, decision-making, relaxation and other coping and problem-solving skills.
  • One exercise involved the students' writing down three good things that happened each day for a week. Examples were: "I answered a really hard question in Spanish class," "I helped my mom shop for groceries" or, "The guy I've liked for months asked me out." Next to each positive event, the students answered the following questions: "What does this mean to you?" and "How can you increase the likelihood of having more of this good thing in the future?"
  • The students who took the program reported more enjoyment and engagement in school. The teachers reported those students were more curious about what they were doing, loved learning and showed more creativity. Effects were particularly strong for students in regular, non-honors classes. According to mothers' and teachers' reports, the students in the PPP had more empathy, self-control and desire to cooperate and assert themselves. Teaching children how to foster their own resiliency, purpose in life and positive feelings can bring "new prosperity" to people's lives
