Should Have Listened to My Mother Podcast

By: Jackie Tantillo
  • Summary

  • Host Jackie Tantillo is proud to announce that "Should Have Listened To My Mother " has won a 2024 People's Choice Podcast Award for best podcast in the Society and Culture Category. SHLTMM is also a 2024 Nominee in two additional categories including, "Best Female" Hosted Podcast & "Best Podcast" in the Kids and Family category. SHLTMM is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the role they play/played in ones life. The mother/son, mother/daughter bond is unique for each of us and it is like no other. "You'll be amazed at human nature and how we can overcome our obstacles, says the podcast host. Our mother/son--mother/daughter relationship is such an integral part of who we are. What we choose to do with it, is up to us, not our mother. "Did your mom influence you by her actions or words or both? Are you who you are today because of or in spite of, your mother? What would you say to your mother if you could speak with her again today? This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to learn from others about who and/or what shaped their life. My guests, some of which share similar backgrounds, interestingly enough, had completely different outcomes in their future. Why is that? I hope you enjoy these timeless oral history recordings of the role mothers and maternal figures have played throughout society. The impact these women have on our lives is insurmountable. What the women that preceded us overcame has undeniably given us liberties and knowledge enabling us to have the bright future that we have. They opened so many doors regardless if they were in the eye of the nation or merely in the hearts of their children, and they should be given a voice. Yes hindsight is 20/20, but by sharing these stories now, we can help the next generations of mothers and give them the tools they need to stay healthy, balanced and strong for the betterment of their children and themselves.

  • Her Magic and Kindness Touched Not Only her Family But Also Those In Need With Guest Family Patterns Expert, Systemic Coach and Author, Judy Wilkins Smith
    Jan 21 2025
    In 2024, Judy released her book, "The Hidden Power in Your DNA." She's also published "Decoding Your Emotional Blueprint," and you can get more information about placing an order on her website. The information is below.Judy immediately told me that she's not one that doesn't love her mother. She and her mother are very close and she can't say enough great things about her experience as a child. Shirley created a wonderful environment to experience as a child. "Her parents were strict but loving. Judy says she knew what her boundaries were in terms of not just outward but inward. I never felt like it was so strict, I couldn't breathe. I knew what discipline looked like." Shirley used to say "if you're going to do something, do it properly or don't bother." And Judy interprets that by saying, "there's a whole bunch of magic in doing something really, really well. Invest in yourself and it makes soul magic. Investing in yourself through that process, it makes soul magic."Judy goes on to describe how when her mum was working in the garden, she put her two daughter's in a wheelbarrow when they were little girls. Shirley lined the wheelbarrow with a blanket and filled it with snacks, drinks, books and things to play with and it is to this day one of Judy's fondest memories. Again, Shirley always created magic.Judy loves everything Disney, again because it's magical. And Judy suggests you "watch Encanto and Frozen because you are the magic, you are the imagineer, you are the one who can make it happen. You are the creator of what's possible."As we were saying goodbye to one another, Judy professed, "mothers are amazing. "And every single gift your mother ever gave you was meant for you, because it grows you the way that you can be and only you can be, don't forget it. Even when the gift doesn't look great."Hope you enjoy the episode. There's so many more wonderful stories about Judy, her mother and Judy's step daughter and their loving relationship.

    Jan 14 2025
    Both Llance and Lori share that Milly was a generous and wonderful person. "There was a real strength about her" continues Lori," and I didn't see her cry very often."Again, Milly had wonderful qualities about her even after major setbacks . Lori's mother and father had four children and raised them in the Seattle, WA area. Lori's youngest brother, is developmentally disabled which, Lori says, "it gave our family a different dynamic. All my mother wanted was the best for her kids. I think of how hard my mom worked to just give us a normal life, in spite of the challenges." So in honor of Milly, they named their soups after her.The broths came to fruition because Lori was a long time teacher and for years would bring a bouillon to work with her and add hot water for a nutritional snack. That's when Llance said, I'm going to try and make you something more nutritious and with less salt. And the creation of Millie's Sipping Broth had it's beginning.I don't know if you're familiar with the podcast "How I Built This" with host Guy Raz. Well I listened to an episode and Llance was a guest on the show. Guy also had an entrepreneur cohost, Jim Koch, Founder of Samuel Adams Beer.

  • Humor and Laughter Were Gifts From His Mother, Baroness Camilla with Guest Blockchain and P2P Consultant, Roberto Capodieci
    Jan 7 2025
    He wasn't your average ordinary young child because of his knack for computer skills, coding expertise and love for video games, etc.Roberto calls himself an "IT Craftsman." He likes to know how each thing works down to the tiniest detail. He's a father, husband and wonderful co-worker. HIs clients have said, "Roberto's exceptional knowledge is only surpassed by his kindness and willingness to support others." My guest's passion lies in technology, Web 3, P2P, Blockchain and so much more. Roberto was so excited to join us and share stories of his mother Camilla who's mother was a Baroness and the title was eventually passed down to Camilla when her mother passed away. Roberto's parents were never physical when it came disciplining him. They were able to have conversations to clear any issues up. Often, Roberto's parents did his usual chores for him because it was just easier for them. Unfortunately, that "hands off attitude," had a bit of a down side to Roberto's experience. Had Roberto been accused of things, things he didn't do, his parents took other adult's word for truth and they never allowed Roberto to defend himself of any of these false accusations. He uses this experience as a big lesson especially in raising his own children. He's adamant about having these open and honest conversations with his children. False accusations have a lasting effect on all of us, especially when you're a young child. He's still waiting to get an apology from the Boy Scout leader.One big surprise for my guest was that he never had any idea that his grandmother was a baroness. He had no idea that nobility was in his genes. It was lucky for Camilla's family, because there was wealth in the family and that allowed them access to food during WWII. Roberto says that it shaped his mother's personality. "She would never throw away one gram of leftover food and use it the next day." Camilla wouldn't let anyone throw anything away, no waste, preserve everything. They enjoyed spending time enjoying simple things in life, like being out in nature and long bicycle rides in the mountains.Camilla grew up in the mainland of Venice, Italy. Both parents were into mathematics. Camilla continued her studies but didn't finish a degree. Shortly afterward she became a housewife and a full time mother. Many years later after her husband passed, Camilla became a tour guide and a teacher of English but Roberto says her English wasn't really that good so he was a little bit embarrassed.Roberto hasn't lived in Italy most of his life. He left at 18 years old and would return for holidays. Since his mom died almost two two years ago, Roberto has stopped going to Italy for Christmas.Roberto says he owes a lot to his siblings for taking care of their mom for so many years. According to Roberto, his mother would often start telling a very lengthy story so it would take yet two more hours in order to leave her apartment. Roberto and his mother both have/had a fantastic sense of humor and always find ways to be happy in life. She never really understood how Roberto could take care of himself and his businesses beginning at such a young age.Camilla had a remarkable intuitive ability to warn her son not to get involved with certain businesses or with a particular person. She was often right. She even suggested that he marry a particular girlfriend years ago. He didn't listen to his mother's advice and he definitely has regrets.linkedIn:RC10website:RCX.ITIf Roberto didn't work in computers and technology, he says he'd love to be a comedian. Humor, laughter and happiness was a common theme for he and his mom. "It's the biggest medicine to smile and laugh" Roberto reflects. "Whatever I do, I have to do it with a smile and with a joke in the middle." "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives. Jackie's guests are open and honest and answer the question, are you who you are today because of, or in spite of, your mother and so much more.
