My guest is the oldest of two daughters, with seven years between she and her younger sister. Mina was working the night shift at a factory, when she was pregnant with her first daughter. Parita shares that her mom used to let she and her sister explore as much as they needed when they were young. Both daughters were pushed academically and socially, but the girls found comfort in the fact that there mom would be there if ever they needed her.
Mina was the oldest of four daughters. Parita's Maternal Grandfather said, "God didn't give me a son but he gave me the strongest daughters." Parita continues saying "her mother has experienced grief , being misunderstood because she's a strong, capable, ambitious woman who's not afraid to speak her mind when she sees injustice." "It's taught me me that you have to be who your are. You have to come to the table with who you are, " commented Parita.
Enjoy this listen. It's a remarkable story.
Tidbits from Parita's Website-WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT, LIFE IS KIND OF LIKE A ROLLERCOASTER. THERE ARE UPS, DOWNS AND THE OCCASIONAL UPSIDE-DOWN MOMENTS.
-THE UPS REMIND US OF WHAT’S POSSIBLE AND TO STAY GRATEFUL AND PRESENT.
THE DOWNS REMIND US THAT CURVEBALLS ARE GOING TO COME AND EVENTUALLY GO.
THEY ALL SHAPE US. THEY ALL MATTER. THEY ARE ALL A PART OF LIFE.
-AT THE END OF THE DAY, THE GOAL ISN’T TO BE EVERYTHING TO EVERYONE, BUT TO LEAD
WITH CARE AND KINDNESS NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE FACING.
-ON THREADS PARITA POSTED:myinnershakti
-It’s so easy to find the things that are wrong. To pull out other people’s faults. Be the person who sees the good stuff first. No matter how small.

"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. You'll be amazed at what the responses are.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship.
Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist, Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.
Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.
A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".
