Bill along with his co-host Murphy Wells, discus an amazing story of perseverance and success with Stacey Schwed founder of www.Parentsrpeople.com Here how Stacey said enough is enough and turned her world around.

Stacy has been in the trenches of an abusive marriage and in her darkest moment, found the strength to change her life simply by changing the way she was thinking. The black cloud that had followed her for ten years slowly faded away as she asked for happiness and instead of waking up each day to the thought, "This is not supposed to be my life". Stacy began to say, "My life is what I make of it".

Stacy was able to find herself again as she began writing her memoir which she posted on her blog ParentsRPeople and tried spreading the word that "You need to be a healthy person to be a healthy parent".

Life sometimes throws curve balls, threatening your job, health or retirement account, perhaps unraveling your most valued relationships. It can be tempting to rely solely on hard work or dogged self-determination to turn things around when challenges arise. Yet Bonnie St. John believes one additional life ingredient can dramatically transform life’s tough situations: joy. As an amputee, Paralympics silver medalist, Rhodes scholar, Harvard and Oxford graduate and single mom, St. John has faced some of life’s toughest challenges—and she doesn’t speak of joy lightly. Her new book, Live Your Joy (April 2009), is a powerfully inspiring collection of real-life, modern-day stories that reveal the power of joy: living it, pursuing it, sharing it, and making it a top priority.

Aaron Steeves lives in Gainesville, VA. He is the father of Cameron, a child with autism, and has been a long-time OAR supporter and volunteer, helping staff with technical issues and participating in various fundraising events.

As fathers, we all dream of the successes of our children. Whether it's Little League, soccer, the spelling bee, or Boy Scouts, there are a lot of activities that other fathers support their kids in that we as parents of autistic children cannot. Where some parents spend their time selecting schools based on athletics or academics, we get to pick them based on special education programs and services. About the time those parents are helping their kids pick out their first car, we're starting to investigate residential treatment options.
