Tanya Ricketts is the host of The Tanya Experience, a Canadian podcast that she started during COVID.  One of her favorite topics is courage.  We all have a Tanya in our lives – people whom we've known forever but don't know anything about them.  Tanya is that person for me – I had no idea who the adult Tanya is —a wife, mother, daughter, friend.  Tanya discusses how she displayed courage in breaking the generational cycle of women who do not raise their children themselves. Tanya started to create the idea of what her family would look like at a very early age using Sears catalogs to cut out the perfect family.  At 26 years old, she was successful in the corporate world as a marketing executive and left all that behind when her second daughter was born.  Because of the survival mentality of the women in her life, she realized she would be repeating the process of not being there for her children.  That realization forced Tanya to step out of the workforce so that her children would have a mother who they see everyday, active, and in their lives.  She was blessed to have a great husband who supported her without understanding her drive to be perpetually present for her children. Listen as she discusses the impact on the next generation of women who she is raising.
