Season 1

Single mothers consistently rank among the most vulnerable. They have higher anxiety rates and chronic stress from economic uncertainty. They have a higher depression rate and mental health burden from isolation. Lower workforce participation due to barriers to sustainable employment. This contributes to elevated long-term risk to children and increases the potential of intergenerational impact for instability. There must be a holistic approach with solutions to stop generational hopelessness.

00:00:31.719 --> 00:00:34.479
Hello, and thank you for tuning in to a Sharp

9
00:00:34.560 --> 00:00:38.799
Outlook on pay for HD radio and Talk or TV.

10
00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:43.000
I am Angela Sharp, your host, our arm to your

11
00:00:43.039 --> 00:00:47.200
discussions with industry experts will give you the steps, tools

12
00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:51.280
and information to be successful in business and to prepare

13
00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:56.520
you to be your best self. Hello, I'm Angela Sharp,

14
00:00:56.679 --> 00:01:01.280
and welcome to a Sharp Outlook where we talk about

15
00:01:01.560 --> 00:01:06.000
fun things, you talk about current topics. We also talk

16
00:01:06.040 --> 00:01:10.879
about difficult subjects, and this week we're focusing on teen

17
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:14.760
and young mothers. The real challenge is the systems they

18
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:18.760
have to navigate and the strength it takes to keep going.

19
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:24.799
Single mothers consistently rank among the most vulnerable. They have

20
00:01:24.920 --> 00:01:30.760
higher anxiety rates and chronic stress from economic uncertainty. There's

21
00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:38.079
a higher depression rate and mental health burden from isolation

22
00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:46.280
due to lower workforce participation, from barriers to sustainable employment

23
00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:50.359
due to lack of stable employment. It contributes to elevated

24
00:01:50.439 --> 00:01:54.680
long term risk to the mother and the children and

25
00:01:54.799 --> 00:02:01.079
increasing the potential of intergenerational impact of instability. To increase

26
00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:07.840
chances of stability instead of generational poverty and homelessness, there

27
00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:13.360
must be a holistic approach and solution solutions that stabilize

28
00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:19.560
the immediate risk, strengthen the internal resilience, and elevate economic mobility,

29
00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:25.159
changing how we see mothers in need as capable instead

30
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:31.120
of beneficiaries. And my guest today is here to talk

31
00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:35.919
about a program that he's been thinking about. A visionary

32
00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:40.479
who has done so many wonderful things, but has the

33
00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:46.680
compassion and the empathy to want to assist these young mothers.

34
00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:53.919
My guest today is Frederick Abramson, and he sent me

35
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:57.199
a wonderful quote, and I would like to say it.

36
00:02:58.120 --> 00:03:01.159
Mark Twain said that two of the most important days

37
00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:03.319
of your life are the day you're born and the

38
00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:07.280
day you find out why. That is the question all

39
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:11.520
of us have been seeking. Why was I born? And

40
00:03:11.599 --> 00:03:15.280
he talks about the wonderful gifts that he has been

41
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:20.639
given to solve problems. And I would like to invite

42
00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:23.759
Frederick to the show right now so we can chat

43
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:27.280
about some of his experiences, and then we can talk

44
00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:32.159
about some of his thoughts and ideas of how can

45
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:39.639
we help team mothers struggling mothers who feel this hopelessness

46
00:03:40.199 --> 00:03:42.439
and go through so many challenges. And we're going to

47
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:46.120
talk about the challenges because I know our listeners and

48
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:50.599
our viewers can understand those challenges, and I know you

49
00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:53.319
are the kind of people who want to try to

50
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:58.960
help find solutions to those problems. Welcome Frederick to Ashoff Outlook.

51
00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:03.120
Thank you, angelam honored to be here, appreciate it.

52
00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:06.800
Yes, well, I'm really happy this year you're here also,

53
00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:11.360
And I was going through Jubaioh and I lived, and

54
00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:13.639
I saw all these wonderful things that you have been

55
00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:16.360
a part of and the schools that you've gone to.

56
00:04:17.279 --> 00:04:21.519
So briefly tell us something about your breath your background,

57
00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:25.720
which is extensive, But tell us about your background.

58
00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:30.160
Well with a smile. I tell people, if you look

59
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:33.360
at my background on LinkedIn, you'll say, well, I've got

60
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:37.000
the weirdest non linitar career path of any breathing person

61
00:04:37.240 --> 00:04:43.800
in North America. But part of it is because when

62
00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:48.000
I was growing up, I had a very difficult and

63
00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:54.560
rough childhood that included poverty, being in foster homes for

64
00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:58.399
a couple of years, and not being the kind of

65
00:04:58.480 --> 00:05:04.199
student at the school liked. So when I was in

66
00:05:04.279 --> 00:05:07.839
high school, they told me that I'd never go to

67
00:05:07.920 --> 00:05:11.000
college then, and they threw me out of the academic

68
00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:14.480
curriculum and put me in commercial. This is in the fifties,

69
00:05:15.079 --> 00:05:19.600
and I learned typing, bookkeeping and clerical practice, and it

70
00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:26.279
turned out that little thing one semester in typing was

71
00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:32.879
what was responsible fifteen years later to be transformative. But

72
00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:37.839
at any rate, my background has been a mixture of things.

73
00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:42.040
But I've been fortunate enough to have people who looking

74
00:05:42.079 --> 00:05:46.240
out for me, who channeled me into the next step.

75
00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:50.199
And I think that that's part of how we create

76
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:56.079
a positive model is you can't do it alone. You

77
00:05:56.160 --> 00:06:00.759
need people on your side that help you answer your question.

78
00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:07.120
Yes, yes, absolutely, yeah. I looked and I've seen that you've,

79
00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:10.720
you know, worked in the youth core and you went

80
00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:16.560
to University of Pennsylvania. You have background in engineering, you

81
00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:22.399
have a background in biotechnology. I mean you you yeah,

82
00:06:22.439 --> 00:06:25.600
you're right, your Your career has taken a lot of

83
00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:30.680
different paths, but it gave you the tools and then

84
00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:35.480
the experience that you mentioned, you know, being in foster care.

85
00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:39.160
I used to be a foster parent, and I understand

86
00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:42.079
some of the challenges that the youth go through and

87
00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:46.319
they come into a home and they've been in multiple

88
00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:50.120
homes and things, and so I can relate to what

89
00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:54.839
you're speaking of. And it gives you a level of

90
00:06:54.959 --> 00:07:00.680
understanding and empathy and compassion that you realize, no, you

91
00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:04.360
can't do it alone. Sometimes you need a helping hand.

92
00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:08.079
Sometimes you just need support that says you can do it,

93
00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:11.480
you can make it. Keep going, keep going, you know,

94
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:16.720
just somebody behind you cheering you along to get you

95
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:21.399
to that point where you you do finally find out

96
00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:26.519
what you were going to do and you achieve those goals.

97
00:07:26.560 --> 00:07:30.199
We see a lot of things out there talking about

98
00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:34.399
people trying to find their dream and find their purpose

99
00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:38.720
and things like that, and sometimes the path isn't just

100
00:07:39.160 --> 00:07:41.920
a straight sit down, Oh I'm going to be this.

101
00:07:42.399 --> 00:07:45.199
Oh I'm going to be this, because life doesn't work

102
00:07:45.240 --> 00:07:45.680
that way.

103
00:07:47.920 --> 00:07:56.079
And Angela another little story that people may gather some

104
00:07:57.079 --> 00:08:00.759
power from in terms of how we help people. When

105
00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:04.360
I was an undergraduate at Penn, I was on probation

106
00:08:04.519 --> 00:08:09.800
for seven consecutive semesters. My undergraduate GPA is one point

107
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:14.160
sixty five out of four, which is not exactly stellar,

108
00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:18.160
right right, A lot of f's. But I wanted to

109
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:20.279
go to graduate school because they didn't want to go

110
00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:25.600
to Vietnam. So the chairman of Biology called me into

111
00:08:25.639 --> 00:08:29.000
his office and he asked me why I wanted to

112
00:08:29.000 --> 00:08:32.240
do this, and I told him, and he said, we've

113
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:36.519
been watching you. You will make a statement in class.

114
00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:40.039
Our best graduate students will understand, and five minutes later

115
00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:43.200
you'll make a statement in class that's so cosmically stupid.

116
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:46.080
We don't understands the same person to say both of them,

117
00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:50.559
but it's the first one that counts. So we're recommending you.

118
00:08:51.720 --> 00:08:55.559
So I applied to four graduate schools, Penn State, Maryland, Rochester,

119
00:08:55.639 --> 00:08:59.360
and Stanford, who took me and two turned me down.

120
00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:03.240
Here's my GPA, one six' five out of. Four. Right

121
00:09:04.559 --> 00:09:07.600
stanford And manchester took, Me Penn state And maryland turned me.

122
00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:14.840
Down WHAT i learned later is two. Things, one having

123
00:09:15.120 --> 00:09:19.879
someone on your side watching you can put you to

124
00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:23.960
take a step you didn't think you could. Take that's

125
00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:26.080
part of the core of what we're doing with Fresh Start.

126
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:32.440
Science the second is by applying To. Stanford why Would

127
00:09:32.440 --> 00:09:36.320
stanford take someone WHO'S gpa is one six' five out

128
00:09:36.320 --> 00:09:40.600
OF four A lesson i learned later at another small

129
00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:43.679
school up North, code MIT where i was a slung

130
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:48.120
fellow for. A year i learned that great organizations are

131
00:09:48.159 --> 00:09:50.720
never afraid to take a chance on you because they

132
00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:55.519
don't feel. Your failures their failure allows the organizations for

133
00:09:55.600 --> 00:10:02.799
your failures, tainting them so they're. Risk adverse rick propensity

134
00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:06.720
defines the culture of the organization in a way that

135
00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:09.600
you can understand things. More clearly.

136
00:10:10.879 --> 00:10:16.919
There, you, go yeah that's. THAT'S incredible, I mean i

137
00:10:17.200 --> 00:10:20.080
can even relate to the FACT that i was able

138
00:10:20.159 --> 00:10:23.080
to get TO where i am and be able to

139
00:10:23.080 --> 00:10:28.720
function in so many different areas of finance and software

140
00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:33.679
engineering and tech and computers and processing and all these

141
00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:36.919
things because there was always someone that was cheering, me, on,

142
00:10:37.120 --> 00:10:40.600
SAYING wow i see. Something there let me give you

143
00:10:40.679 --> 00:10:44.840
this challenge AND would i would be kind of scared,

144
00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:46.799
at FIRST but, i, THOUGHT shoot i at least got,

145
00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:49.519
to try AND when, I tried. I succeeded it, was

146
00:10:49.559 --> 00:10:52.720
like SO then i just kept on. Pushing myself but

147
00:10:52.799 --> 00:10:56.320
there was somebody that actually BELIEVED that i was able,

148
00:10:56.360 --> 00:10:59.840
to SUCCEED that i had that, in ME that i could.

149
00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:04.799
Accomplish that and just getting, that support like, you said

150
00:11:04.879 --> 00:11:05.759
it is so very. Very.

151
00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:09.919
Important right the Other thing i'll share with the AUDIENCE

152
00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:13.519
is i TOLD you i learned typing in high school in,

153
00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:16.480
the fifties and boys never learned typing in. Those days

154
00:11:16.679 --> 00:11:20.200
it was for, girls, Only right but here's how the.

155
00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:24.039
Magic HAPPENED when i was At the University of michigan

156
00:11:24.080 --> 00:11:28.159
in their, mid sixties a professor came up to me,

157
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:31.600
AND said i understand you know how. TO type i.

158
00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:33.720
Said yeah, he said come with me and want to

159
00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:39.399
teach your. Computer programming and THAT'S how i got into the.

160
00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:42.440
Computer field THAT'S how i started doing work with big

161
00:11:42.519 --> 00:11:46.639
data ANALYTICS. AND ai i did THE first ai system

162
00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:49.679
in healthcare in the seventies to identify the risk of

163
00:11:49.679 --> 00:11:53.639
getting infected on the mission to. A hospital but for

164
00:11:53.799 --> 00:11:59.600
a professor who said you, can type come, on there

165
00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:02.440
it is so you never know how the things you

166
00:12:02.559 --> 00:12:05.320
learn may turn out to, be, valuable.

167
00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:11.080
Right right always think of it as a journey and

168
00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:13.720
everything that, you do don't throw it away as. Something

169
00:12:13.840 --> 00:12:18.279
useless it's something that you're learning at this moment for

170
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:22.120
something you're going to need in. The future and every

171
00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:26.480
little bit of it is. Absolutely important that is such

172
00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:30.720
a great story because so, many people, you know will

173
00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:33.440
throw away like small things, and, think oh this, is

174
00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:35.840
USELESS so i don't need to learn that, or this

175
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:38.919
that and. The other but down the road is going to. Pop,

176
00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:41.639
up wow you're able to, do that and it's going

177
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:43.120
to open doors that you couldn't.

178
00:12:43.120 --> 00:12:47.600
Even Imagine and angela listening to you, describe that it

179
00:12:47.759 --> 00:12:50.960
kind of resonates with the message Of Fresh start science

180
00:12:51.440 --> 00:12:54.559
because when we've had to work with these, young women

181
00:12:55.240 --> 00:12:57.360
we're not going to tell them to throw away, their

182
00:12:57.399 --> 00:13:01.360
past to ignore. What happened it's all part of. The

183
00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:06.039
package it's. Moving forward it's an important message that you.

184
00:13:06.200 --> 00:13:06.600
Just share.

185
00:13:06.720 --> 00:13:12.480
Thank, You yeah so let's talk About Fresh. Start science,

186
00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:18.559
YOU know i attend some of your meetings on this,

187
00:13:19.039 --> 00:13:23.840
very Project and i'm so excited about you know what

188
00:13:23.879 --> 00:13:27.360
it's going. To do it's going to change lives and

189
00:13:27.360 --> 00:13:30.320
that's what we're all here, to do is to help

190
00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:34.480
one another be our best selves and help them change

191
00:13:34.559 --> 00:13:38.799
lives and help them. Change directions and you have a

192
00:13:38.879 --> 00:13:42.960
wonderful plan that you've put together, To help like, you

193
00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:47.519
said young mothers and. Teenage mothers and it's not about

194
00:13:47.919 --> 00:13:51.200
sitting around trying to find out why they're having a child,

195
00:13:51.279 --> 00:13:53.440
so young or why are they having a child, you

196
00:13:53.480 --> 00:13:56.399
know out of wed like or all these different things

197
00:13:56.480 --> 00:13:59.960
that are said to these young ladies to, discourage them

198
00:14:00.440 --> 00:14:04.000
to make them, feel shamed to make them feel all

199
00:14:04.120 --> 00:14:09.159
kinds of emotions that do not, you know project them

200
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:12.200
into a, positive direction but make them want to go

201
00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:14.720
hide and make them, want to, you KNOW like, i

202
00:14:14.720 --> 00:14:18.759
said be in isolation because they don't want to. Be

203
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:23.720
criticized they don't want to all those horrible statements that

204
00:14:23.799 --> 00:14:28.639
are made because you out there that are, so perfect

205
00:14:29.399 --> 00:14:33.240
feel that you have the right to judge. Someone else

206
00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:36.879
you don't know, their story and you don't need to know.

207
00:14:36.960 --> 00:14:39.000
Their story you got enough of your own book to.

208
00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:43.000
Be writing but to sit and stand in the seat

209
00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:49.320
of judgment, of others, you know he that has done,

210
00:14:49.399 --> 00:14:51.360
No wrong you be the first one to throw. A

211
00:14:51.480 --> 00:14:56.240
rock oh you're dropping. The, Rocks huh so let's drop

212
00:14:56.279 --> 00:14:59.120
the rocks because none of us are perfect and we

213
00:14:59.120 --> 00:15:03.200
shouldn't be judging. Anyone else we all have our path.

214
00:15:03.759 --> 00:15:04.559
To walk.

215
00:15:06.159 --> 00:15:10.960
So tell us About Fresh. Start, Science.

216
00:15:12.080 --> 00:15:16.480
Well i'll tell it in. TWO ways I Started Fresh

217
00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:20.600
art science fifteen years ago and couldn't raise any money in,

218
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:23.399
those DAYS so i put. It aside it was A

219
00:15:23.440 --> 00:15:27.879
five o one c. Three, nonprofit yes what got me

220
00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:33.799
focused populations did a, big question why focus on young.

221
00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:38.960
Single moms that's because in, the SIXTIES when i was

222
00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:43.399
in population planning At the University, of michigan they asked

223
00:15:43.399 --> 00:15:45.879
me to do some Work With planned Parenthood. Of detroit

224
00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:49.279
So The planned parenthood people told me to go in

225
00:15:49.320 --> 00:15:54.039
the Field suburban detroit talk to young women about contraception

226
00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:58.360
and sex to. Educate Them so i'm talking to young

227
00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:02.120
WOMEN and i discover they all know, about sex they

228
00:16:02.159 --> 00:16:07.159
all know. About CONTRACEPTION but i discovered something. Really strange

229
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:10.759
when a young woman would. Get pregnant the guys who

230
00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:14.440
got him pregnant treated him, really well gave, him presents

231
00:16:14.480 --> 00:16:17.240
took them, to dinner opened the door. For him but

232
00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:19.200
as soon as the kid, Was born i'm out. Of

233
00:16:19.240 --> 00:16:25.159
here you're on. Your own this, Is weird, so said these,

234
00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:28.679
young women they get pregnant and they're rewarded, for pregnancy

235
00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:32.320
and then when the, kids born it flips one hundred and. Eighty.

236
00:16:32.320 --> 00:16:36.159
Degrees YEAH so i went To plant parenthood, and said

237
00:16:37.320 --> 00:16:40.159
let's give each person a card that Says plant Point

238
00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:44.080
in detroit with Her Name, susan wilson and talk to

239
00:16:44.120 --> 00:16:46.799
the merchants in the area that if she shows the

240
00:16:46.840 --> 00:16:50.240
card they do something nice, for her in, other words

241
00:16:50.360 --> 00:16:54.799
reward her for. Using contraption, they, said no we have.

242
00:16:54.840 --> 00:16:59.519
To educate SO rolling, I stopped, i said that's. The end,

243
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:04.000
going forward fifteen, years ago while Teaching At johns Hopkins,

244
00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:09.799
and biotechnology the same target population, emerged again and THIS time,

245
00:17:09.839 --> 00:17:14.680
i said let's work, with genetics. Wellness genetics let's look

246
00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:18.880
at the traits that define them in. Positive ways not,

247
00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:23.559
for disease, no Cancer, no alzheimer's. No diabetes let's look

248
00:17:23.559 --> 00:17:28.119
at things that. Are POSITIVE and i couldn't, raise MONEY as,

249
00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:30.960
i said but what got me back? INTO this a

250
00:17:31.000 --> 00:17:33.839
few months ago a coach on the meet up platform,

251
00:17:33.880 --> 00:17:38.680
alignable said, ask me what could you tell a, young

252
00:17:38.720 --> 00:17:42.920
woman young mother who would break that would break through

253
00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:46.559
all the barriers that keeps her frozen and unable to build.

254
00:17:46.559 --> 00:17:49.640
A LIFE and, i SAID suppose i told HER her

255
00:17:49.720 --> 00:17:55.200
dna is a good Match from Mozart. And beethoven, she,

256
00:17:55.279 --> 00:17:59.440
said well that would get. Her attention it's a good

257
00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:05.359
example because it, turns out according to the chatchbt Motzartre.

258
00:18:05.440 --> 00:18:11.119
In beethoven how about eight you eight jeans combined that

259
00:18:11.200 --> 00:18:16.000
when you take, them together are a good blueprint for. Musical,

260
00:18:16.079 --> 00:18:23.039
genius yeah but. That's it the journey has been looking at,

261
00:18:23.079 --> 00:18:27.880
the population realizing, they're stuck but realizing we have to

262
00:18:27.880 --> 00:18:31.759
find a whole new, communication, model yes to give. Them

263
00:18:31.880 --> 00:18:35.640
value and the nice Thing that i've learned IS, with

264
00:18:35.880 --> 00:18:40.519
dna it's not. An opinion It's, not susan, you're great

265
00:18:40.759 --> 00:18:42.880
because that's often we got them to be pregnant in the.

266
00:18:42.880 --> 00:18:47.559
First Place, it's susan you have talent IN. Your dna

267
00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:51.359
and then she, can say wait, a minute maybe it's

268
00:18:51.400 --> 00:18:54.039
time for me to start building. A life and that's

269
00:18:54.079 --> 00:18:57.079
where the coaching and counseling. Comes in JUST like i,

270
00:18:57.240 --> 00:19:01.920
had it people watching over me guided me to the. Next, step,

271
00:19:02.440 --> 00:19:05.839
yes well we can watch over these young women and

272
00:19:05.920 --> 00:19:09.079
guide them to the next steps. As well that's a

273
00:19:09.119 --> 00:19:10.240
long answer to a. Simple.

274
00:19:10.319 --> 00:19:13.720
Question, Angela yeah and like, you said there's so many

275
00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:18.039
challenges that. They have they have challenges of trying to find,

276
00:19:18.160 --> 00:19:21.160
you know housing and different things, like that, you know

277
00:19:22.119 --> 00:19:26.359
and being able to just stabilize their family so that,

278
00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:31.759
you know the children. Aren't suffering that's, really important. You

279
00:19:31.799 --> 00:19:36.039
know and when we say stabilize, the family what does?

280
00:19:36.079 --> 00:19:41.720
That cover how do you remove their? Survival pressure because they,

281
00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:45.599
need housing they, need food they, need diapers they need,

282
00:19:45.759 --> 00:19:48.680
you know a ride to, to work or they need

283
00:19:48.720 --> 00:19:51.759
a ride to, the daycare or they need to. FIND daycare,

284
00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:54.480
i mean all of these different challenges that are. Hitting

285
00:19:54.519 --> 00:19:58.759
them and if they're not working or they didn't finish

286
00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:01.440
their education or and things, like that they're in a

287
00:20:01.559 --> 00:20:06.880
very difficult position and they still need to be able

288
00:20:06.960 --> 00:20:10.279
to stabilize. Their family, you know how do you kind

289
00:20:10.319 --> 00:20:15.079
of remove that survival pressure in? THIS program.

290
00:20:16.240 --> 00:20:20.839
I believe you can't remove the entire. Survival pressure some

291
00:20:20.920 --> 00:20:26.000
resources can be provided, to them and you mentioned indirectly

292
00:20:26.079 --> 00:20:29.160
one of them is the issue. Of childcare WHAT do

293
00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:33.279
i do with? My kid and one of THE things

294
00:20:33.680 --> 00:20:39.680
i met a personal onlineable and my Recollections, from indiana

295
00:20:39.920 --> 00:20:43.359
and we were talking About Fresh, start science and, he

296
00:20:43.519 --> 00:20:48.519
said and one of the counties that, he's in the

297
00:20:48.680 --> 00:20:54.440
high school started a daycare program for young women who

298
00:20:54.480 --> 00:20:57.960
had had children so they can return to high school

299
00:20:58.680 --> 00:21:02.480
finished getting. Their education the kids were in the daycare

300
00:21:02.559 --> 00:21:07.079
center in the, high school which men they. Were, safe yes, it's,

301
00:21:07.119 --> 00:21:11.119
like okay you've now resolved one of the, major issues

302
00:21:11.640 --> 00:21:15.799
because when you have, an infant a, young kid you

303
00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:17.920
have to worry about how they're going to be taken

304
00:21:17.960 --> 00:21:19.240
care of if you're out of. The.

305
00:21:19.279 --> 00:21:22.400
House, yes yes but this.

306
00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:26.200
High, school said we'll make a daycare center for these

307
00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:28.839
young women so they can get to finish, their education

308
00:21:29.279 --> 00:21:32.920
finish high school and then looking at jobs. And, college

309
00:21:33.519 --> 00:21:36.359
right that's the kind of genius response.

310
00:21:36.440 --> 00:21:42.200
We, need, yes absolutely helping them establish a path to

311
00:21:42.240 --> 00:21:45.160
get from where they are to where they dream. To

312
00:21:45.319 --> 00:21:49.160
be and like, you said when, you're old that you

313
00:21:49.279 --> 00:21:53.720
have inside of, you genetically you have all of, these

314
00:21:53.759 --> 00:21:58.200
capabilities you have all. These possibilities they don't want to

315
00:21:58.319 --> 00:22:03.200
not go, after that but their path is, so difficult

316
00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:07.839
and having a program like this that gives them the

317
00:22:07.960 --> 00:22:12.279
opportunity to, go back like, you said and get their high.

318
00:22:12.279 --> 00:22:14.920
School diploma so that they can get their next step

319
00:22:15.480 --> 00:22:21.200
of whatever their education desire is is extremely you. Know

320
00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:24.920
critical AND then i like that idea about them having

321
00:22:25.319 --> 00:22:27.960
like a. Daycare there most of the time they kick

322
00:22:28.000 --> 00:22:31.480
them out of school and they can't even. Come back and,

323
00:22:32.000 --> 00:22:34.319
you know what good did? THAT do, i, mean what

324
00:22:34.599 --> 00:22:37.559
why are you trying to punish people for being? A

325
00:22:37.599 --> 00:22:42.240
mother motherhood is what a lot of. Women do so

326
00:22:42.599 --> 00:22:45.880
you're punishing them because you decided the way they became

327
00:22:46.000 --> 00:22:49.400
mothers wasn't the way you, liked it. YOU know i,

328
00:22:49.920 --> 00:22:51.759
you know those are just some of the things that

329
00:22:51.799 --> 00:22:56.839
we do to other people in our in our, you,

330
00:22:56.839 --> 00:23:01.480
know communities and part of our just our values that.

331
00:23:01.519 --> 00:23:04.799
We have we want to punish people and that is

332
00:23:04.839 --> 00:23:08.599
not what is needed at. That time. You know another

333
00:23:08.680 --> 00:23:13.799
goal is is to strengthen and restore their psychological stability

334
00:23:14.759 --> 00:23:19.079
for mother, and family, you know because of the challenges

335
00:23:19.119 --> 00:23:21.559
and the things that they. Go through you know what

336
00:23:21.599 --> 00:23:22.000
does that?

337
00:23:22.079 --> 00:23:29.359
Look, like, yeah well it goes back to, you know accentuating.

338
00:23:29.400 --> 00:23:35.119
The positive the soul member accentuate, to positive eliminate. The

339
00:23:35.200 --> 00:23:39.599
negative so in the world, of genetics the REASON the,

340
00:23:39.720 --> 00:23:43.880
dna WORLD what i call wellness genetics is a core

341
00:23:44.000 --> 00:23:50.119
to the foundation of fresh. Art sciences genetics is. Objective science.

342
00:23:51.440 --> 00:23:55.200
It's real it's not. An opinion you can disagree with.

343
00:23:55.240 --> 00:24:01.200
The science, that's legitimate but you, can't, say WELL if

344
00:24:01.240 --> 00:24:04.880
i have a gene for, problem solving there's something wrong with.

345
00:24:04.920 --> 00:24:11.119
The genetics that's the research that. Shows that but by

346
00:24:11.160 --> 00:24:17.599
focusing on the traits, like empathy, problem, solving analytics skills and,

347
00:24:17.960 --> 00:24:22.240
musical ability things that we as a, society, say wow

348
00:24:23.119 --> 00:24:27.119
you're good, at that that puts a switch in this

349
00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:31.279
young woman's brain THAT says i am not someone to be.

350
00:24:31.359 --> 00:24:35.039
DISPOSED of i am not someone to be. Pushed, aside

351
00:24:36.279 --> 00:24:40.960
now having, said that being motivated to build a life

352
00:24:41.839 --> 00:24:45.680
doesn't mean you can do it on. Your own it'd

353
00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:48.359
be like someone that you've taught how to swim and

354
00:24:48.559 --> 00:24:51.839
sail and then walking down to the dock, and saying here's,

355
00:24:51.880 --> 00:24:56.680
a sailboat, Happy sailing i'll see you in. Two weeks that, doesn't.

356
00:24:56.720 --> 00:25:01.720
Work right but if you work with them To, susan

357
00:25:01.880 --> 00:25:06.039
nada you understand you. Have value let's talk about things

358
00:25:06.079 --> 00:25:09.599
you can do that build on who you are in a.

359
00:25:09.680 --> 00:25:14.480
Positive way just like in, my case who would have

360
00:25:14.559 --> 00:25:18.240
EXPECTED that i should even apply It To. Stanford university

361
00:25:19.079 --> 00:25:23.279
and by, the way getting into pen in, high school

362
00:25:23.319 --> 00:25:25.480
they throw me out of the academic curriculum put me.

363
00:25:25.519 --> 00:25:29.119
In commercial why Would the University of pennsylvania take somebody

364
00:25:29.400 --> 00:25:32.519
who was not even in the academic curriculum.

365
00:25:32.519 --> 00:25:33.680
Full time.

366
00:25:35.480 --> 00:25:38.680
But that means that there are organizations out there who

367
00:25:38.720 --> 00:25:43.880
are willing to take a chance on someone, and say

368
00:25:44.279 --> 00:25:47.079
let's see if you have the chops to do. The

369
00:25:47.200 --> 00:25:51.920
job and the coach you're counseling is to Let the

370
00:25:51.960 --> 00:25:55.160
susans of the world learn they really do have. The

371
00:25:55.279 --> 00:25:58.400
chops they just got to get into the game to start.

372
00:25:58.440 --> 00:26:05.200
PLAYING right i remember years AGO when i was in

373
00:26:05.480 --> 00:26:11.400
management and we, needed staff but, you know the budgets,

374
00:26:11.599 --> 00:26:15.480
were small AND so i found out that the, state

375
00:26:15.519 --> 00:26:22.240
itself Through The, unemployment department allowed people that did not have,

376
00:26:22.279 --> 00:26:25.480
any skills did not have, the education to come in

377
00:26:25.599 --> 00:26:29.119
and learn like, an apprentice and to come in, and

378
00:26:29.240 --> 00:26:33.960
learn and their salary was paid by The state. Unemployment

379
00:26:34.000 --> 00:26:37.000
office it wasn't a burden on, the company and it

380
00:26:37.119 --> 00:26:41.160
gave people that didn't even come close to ever having

381
00:26:41.160 --> 00:26:46.319
a chance to, learn bookkeeping, to learn like, you said how,

382
00:26:46.319 --> 00:26:50.079
to type to learn, you know some of the specifics

383
00:26:50.119 --> 00:26:53.519
about in a business to learn how to, you know

384
00:26:53.799 --> 00:26:57.599
run machinery and different things. Like that it gave them like.

385
00:26:57.640 --> 00:27:02.920
AN apprenticeship i don't know whether that that program is

386
00:27:02.920 --> 00:27:07.200
still available in states around, the COUNTRY but i remember

387
00:27:07.359 --> 00:27:12.200
that it just gave such a huge break to so

388
00:27:12.319 --> 00:27:16.119
many people and gave them opportunities to, have lives and

389
00:27:16.119 --> 00:27:19.720
gave them opportunities, to dream and gave them opportunities that

390
00:27:19.759 --> 00:27:22.880
when they finished, the program they could actually, now, Say

391
00:27:23.079 --> 00:27:26.839
well i've been here for, Six months i've, got experience

392
00:27:27.240 --> 00:27:29.319
and now they can actually go out and work their

393
00:27:29.400 --> 00:27:32.599
job and work at the regular. Pay rate, you know

394
00:27:32.680 --> 00:27:36.400
it was a reduced rate coming through the, unemployment office

395
00:27:36.400 --> 00:27:39.279
but they were at least make earning money and giving

396
00:27:39.319 --> 00:27:43.119
them a chance. In life and these are, programs that,

397
00:27:43.759 --> 00:27:46.119
you know maybe we have to go out there, and,

398
00:27:46.160 --> 00:27:49.599
say hey you don't know what to do with all those,

399
00:27:49.640 --> 00:27:51.759
federal dollars you don't know what to do with all those.

400
00:27:51.799 --> 00:27:55.000
State dollars how about us doing programs that are helping

401
00:27:55.000 --> 00:27:57.720
to build. People's lives, you know that would be. A

402
00:27:57.759 --> 00:28:01.920
switch and so so that's those are the kinds of

403
00:28:02.000 --> 00:28:06.519
things that we need and we need companies, that are like,

404
00:28:06.599 --> 00:28:12.079
you said willing to take a chance on helping people

405
00:28:13.319 --> 00:28:17.119
find out what they were born for and be able

406
00:28:17.160 --> 00:28:21.319
to do the dreams that they really really have in

407
00:28:21.359 --> 00:28:25.359
life and now have a door open. To them so

408
00:28:25.559 --> 00:28:28.519
that's really important to be able to strengthen them and

409
00:28:28.640 --> 00:28:31.200
help them give them that hope in their mind and

410
00:28:31.279 --> 00:28:36.240
their heart that you, Know what i'm not what they're.

411
00:28:36.279 --> 00:28:40.559
Calling me i'm not what. THEY say i am. A

412
00:28:40.839 --> 00:28:46.799
musician i can go out, and COMPOSE or i can

413
00:28:46.839 --> 00:28:49.519
go and, write SONGS or i can go and, write

414
00:28:49.519 --> 00:28:53.240
BOOKS or i can write THE best ai program who

415
00:28:53.279 --> 00:28:57.160
ever wanted. TO see i, mean so but we. Don't

416
00:28:57.240 --> 00:28:59.920
know if we don't give these people an opportunity to

417
00:29:00.200 --> 00:29:05.799
tap into their strengths and, their capabilities. We're missing and the,

418
00:29:05.839 --> 00:29:09.480
thing is the world is missing out when we, don't allow,

419
00:29:10.160 --> 00:29:13.680
you know give people that were gifted with, these things

420
00:29:13.799 --> 00:29:17.960
give them a chance to use. Those talents we're missing

421
00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:23.960
and big gaps in, our workforce big gaps in different

422
00:29:24.039 --> 00:29:27.319
areas of life because we haven't tapped into where the.

423
00:29:27.319 --> 00:29:31.640
Talent is because, you know we decided to judge them

424
00:29:31.640 --> 00:29:34.079
before we even gave them a chance to see who

425
00:29:34.200 --> 00:29:35.720
is this what do? They?

426
00:29:35.799 --> 00:29:41.200
Have, Right yeah and that's really critical because when a

427
00:29:41.279 --> 00:29:46.680
person realizes to THEMSELVES that i have value as a

428
00:29:46.759 --> 00:29:52.480
human being and then gets motivated, to say, with coaching

429
00:29:53.279 --> 00:29:55.680
let's take you to the, next level let's see what you.

430
00:29:55.680 --> 00:29:58.039
Can, do right someone.

431
00:29:57.839 --> 00:30:00.680
Has to be there to have to the doors get

432
00:30:00.720 --> 00:30:05.920
opened so that they can begin working with the value

433
00:30:06.000 --> 00:30:10.039
they have and begin them building the skills and the

434
00:30:10.160 --> 00:30:14.319
abilities to do things and, my experiences for most of,

435
00:30:14.359 --> 00:30:20.359
those people they will return, the gift right because they

436
00:30:20.839 --> 00:30:25.599
know how fortunate they are to have someone show them

437
00:30:25.640 --> 00:30:29.960
the way a path to building a, positive life to

438
00:30:30.160 --> 00:30:34.599
escape the blame and the abuse and. So on and

439
00:30:34.680 --> 00:30:36.920
that's the kind of person who will turn around AND

440
00:30:36.960 --> 00:30:41.720
say i can give. This back so it's a cycle

441
00:30:41.839 --> 00:30:43.400
that continues in a. Positive.

442
00:30:43.440 --> 00:30:49.240
Way, Yeah yeah and just, thinking that, you know when

443
00:30:49.240 --> 00:30:52.400
they're at looking at all these struggles that, they have

444
00:30:52.519 --> 00:30:56.079
and you know they're feeling they feel like they're being

445
00:30:56.440 --> 00:30:59.359
pushed to drop out or to give up. Their goals,

446
00:30:59.440 --> 00:31:03.440
you know, you know your value is not like this

447
00:31:03.519 --> 00:31:06.759
person over here who's getting the four, point average, you

448
00:31:06.799 --> 00:31:11.759
know and so they do, feel that, you know WHY should?

449
00:31:11.759 --> 00:31:15.559
I bother WHY should, i try and, you know but

450
00:31:15.640 --> 00:31:21.119
this program that, you have, you know it's actually supporting

451
00:31:21.160 --> 00:31:26.079
them on that journey to actually become what they want

452
00:31:26.079 --> 00:31:30.720
to be and helping them to toss all that noise

453
00:31:30.799 --> 00:31:34.079
that's out there that's trying to hold, them back to

454
00:31:34.279 --> 00:31:38.319
silence all, those voices to silence all of those closed

455
00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:43.519
doors that they. Might have instead there's open doors to.

456
00:31:43.559 --> 00:31:49.519
Help them, the program, you know helps them, Get education

457
00:31:49.640 --> 00:31:53.759
the program helps them fill, out applications. They help it

458
00:31:53.839 --> 00:31:56.480
helps them because because they. Get MENTORS am? I right.

459
00:31:57.880 --> 00:32:02.119
I think an important moment TO what i heard is

460
00:32:02.160 --> 00:32:07.119
that the design is to help them discover what they

461
00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:11.599
can be, mm hmmm because many of them don't even

462
00:32:11.720 --> 00:32:16.079
know that they have the abilities to accomplish. Things right

463
00:32:16.240 --> 00:32:19.839
and again that's WHY the, dna analysis the wellness. Genetics

464
00:32:20.200 --> 00:32:25.799
analysis if you learn in the wellness genetics that you've

465
00:32:25.799 --> 00:32:29.640
got many of the genes that They believe Mozart and,

466
00:32:29.680 --> 00:32:34.519
beethoven had you, may, say WELL suppose i go get

467
00:32:34.519 --> 00:32:39.440
a guitar and start learning. Play music but that may

468
00:32:39.480 --> 00:32:42.799
not occur to you until you discover the traits that

469
00:32:42.839 --> 00:32:45.880
are that we as a, society value and you, can,

470
00:32:45.920 --> 00:32:48.839
say okay let's SEE if i can go down. That

471
00:32:48.880 --> 00:32:55.039
path that's really it's a voyage of discovery and then

472
00:32:55.079 --> 00:32:58.440
a voyage of finding the right port to. Call, home.

473
00:33:01.359 --> 00:33:04.200
Yeah getting him and taking care of all of those.

474
00:33:04.240 --> 00:33:13.200
IMMEDIATE needs i know that a lot of people that

475
00:33:13.319 --> 00:33:17.200
have gone through some of these circumstances where they are

476
00:33:17.440 --> 00:33:19.759
young mothers and things. Like THAT like, i said you

477
00:33:20.200 --> 00:33:22.400
see the people that are on, the job, you know

478
00:33:23.359 --> 00:33:26.720
judging and whispering and different things like that when they.

479
00:33:26.759 --> 00:33:31.240
Find out, YOU know i don't know why we feel

480
00:33:31.319 --> 00:33:35.200
we can have. These STEREOTYPES sometimes i really just despise

481
00:33:36.160 --> 00:33:39.599
the stereotypes that we, you know try to categorize people

482
00:33:39.640 --> 00:33:42.000
and put them in. Little boxes, first off who gave you?

483
00:33:42.039 --> 00:33:45.559
That right and what makes you think you're smart enough

484
00:33:45.559 --> 00:33:48.200
to know? What category oh you can, read minds you can,

485
00:33:48.279 --> 00:33:51.319
read heart you can read. My future oh you got

486
00:33:51.319 --> 00:33:55.079
a one on one line to the creator and he

487
00:33:55.400 --> 00:34:00.119
whispered in your ear about. MY life, i mean and

488
00:34:00.160 --> 00:34:02.440
you have to think about some of those things that

489
00:34:04.920 --> 00:34:09.840
we do as a society and not realizing not only

490
00:34:09.880 --> 00:34:13.840
are you harming that person you're, talking to but you're

491
00:34:13.920 --> 00:34:17.880
harming the children because that she's going to go home

492
00:34:18.599 --> 00:34:24.079
with a negative feeling, about herself then she's not going

493
00:34:24.159 --> 00:34:27.519
to respond to her children in a way that gives

494
00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:32.119
them motivation and. Positive positivity and so then you end

495
00:34:32.199 --> 00:34:38.840
up with generations, of poverty generations of all kinds of,

496
00:34:38.960 --> 00:34:45.599
other things generations of maybe, even homelessness or maybe behaviors

497
00:34:45.639 --> 00:34:48.679
that end up being a result of the fact of

498
00:34:48.920 --> 00:34:52.039
not having money, for food not having a place. To

499
00:34:52.119 --> 00:34:55.639
live and, you know then we get into petty crimes

500
00:34:55.679 --> 00:34:59.679
and all, these things all because someone who didn't know

501
00:34:59.760 --> 00:35:03.719
how to to respond or maybe just keep your. Mouth

502
00:35:03.800 --> 00:35:08.800
shut you cause an effect of one person who is

503
00:35:08.880 --> 00:35:15.519
responsible for generation, of people and now you have caused

504
00:35:17.000 --> 00:35:21.519
an effect that may. Impact generations have you ever thought

505
00:35:21.559 --> 00:35:25.719
about your words can hurt to the point you affect

506
00:35:26.039 --> 00:35:31.280
two to three generations. Of people shame on us, to ever,

507
00:35:31.480 --> 00:35:41.559
you know do something. Like that when when they first

508
00:35:41.559 --> 00:35:46.320
become a mom and know anything about, government assistance or

509
00:35:46.360 --> 00:35:49.960
do they know anything about government assistance so that they

510
00:35:50.000 --> 00:35:54.840
can maybe get childcare help or food assistance or. Housing

511
00:35:54.920 --> 00:35:58.760
support do you feel they know how to navigate to

512
00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:02.760
be able to at least take care of those. Immediate needs.

513
00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:10.559
I'd say some do and, some DON'T and. I, think

514
00:36:12.199 --> 00:36:14.559
yeah it depends on what the environment are coming out

515
00:36:14.599 --> 00:36:21.199
of in their everyday culture growing up and, you know

516
00:36:21.280 --> 00:36:26.519
and working and going. To school some may have more

517
00:36:26.519 --> 00:36:30.199
awareness of what. Goes on and of course there. Are

518
00:36:30.280 --> 00:36:35.239
resources when a young woman has, a child the hospital

519
00:36:35.320 --> 00:36:39.199
of the maternal, care center they often have insights in

520
00:36:39.320 --> 00:36:43.280
d how to, provide that but it isn't an automatic

521
00:36:43.360 --> 00:36:46.400
thing that they know how. To help but again that's

522
00:36:46.480 --> 00:36:48.280
part of the design of what we want to Do

523
00:36:48.360 --> 00:36:53.639
With Fresh art science is to help them understand there,

524
00:36:53.679 --> 00:36:57.880
are resources but at the same time not have them

525
00:36:57.920 --> 00:37:01.280
become so dependent on the resource that they lose the

526
00:37:01.360 --> 00:37:03.119
motivation to change.

527
00:37:02.880 --> 00:37:06.679
Your, life, right, Right absolutely.

528
00:37:06.400 --> 00:37:09.400
So it's, a balance it's a. Balancing act but the

529
00:37:09.599 --> 00:37:12.440
need to get inside their head, to say have THEM

530
00:37:12.480 --> 00:37:16.360
say i want to build something positive for myself and.

531
00:37:16.079 --> 00:37:20.519
My child and with that we had to open some

532
00:37:20.639 --> 00:37:23.079
doors and give them a path to. The.

533
00:37:23.119 --> 00:37:28.559
Future, yeah yeah and, you know and the, THING is

534
00:37:28.679 --> 00:37:33.599
i if anyone has ever contacted the government, or anything

535
00:37:34.440 --> 00:37:38.239
it can. Be confusing it can be difficult to navigate.

536
00:37:38.280 --> 00:37:43.239
Through there you could end up becoming frustrated and end

537
00:37:43.320 --> 00:37:46.079
up not getting to support your need because you have

538
00:37:46.119 --> 00:37:49.039
to keep, coming back or, you know there's there's a

539
00:37:49.119 --> 00:37:52.199
lack of understanding of what it is or how it

540
00:37:52.320 --> 00:37:58.639
is to even. Actually apply and SO just i Know

541
00:37:58.760 --> 00:38:03.000
fresh start will have people there that are experiencing that

542
00:38:03.119 --> 00:38:08.920
to even guide them through the steps that you take

543
00:38:09.000 --> 00:38:12.920
to be able to get. That assistance so your immediate

544
00:38:13.119 --> 00:38:18.119
needs and things are are there because they're already, you know.

545
00:38:18.800 --> 00:38:21.800
Having difficulties the last thing they need to do is

546
00:38:22.239 --> 00:38:26.679
start feeling helpless because they can't get through. The process and,

547
00:38:27.800 --> 00:38:32.880
you know with so many people trying to get into,

548
00:38:33.039 --> 00:38:35.519
the system it's hard to get through on the, phone

549
00:38:35.559 --> 00:38:38.480
lines it's hard to make the steps and get through.

550
00:38:38.519 --> 00:38:44.000
The process, so yeah just being able to get that assistance,

551
00:38:44.159 --> 00:38:48.239
is really really. Really important.

552
00:38:49.760 --> 00:38:50.039
That's.

553
00:38:50.079 --> 00:38:59.039
The. Plan, yeah yeah and then sometimes, you know being

554
00:38:59.079 --> 00:39:03.960
able to to cope and getting the support. THAT'S needed

555
00:39:04.119 --> 00:39:08.719
i know that the program's going to be providing mentors

556
00:39:08.760 --> 00:39:11.679
that are going to be helping them cope with day

557
00:39:11.719 --> 00:39:16.679
to day challenges and give them that support when they're

558
00:39:16.679 --> 00:39:21.320
feeling down or when they're feeling pressured or BECAUSE like,

559
00:39:21.360 --> 00:39:25.400
i said just just yourself taking care, of view you

560
00:39:25.519 --> 00:39:29.280
might be able to succeed a. Little quicker but then

561
00:39:29.320 --> 00:39:32.599
when you have the children and they, might have, you

562
00:39:32.639 --> 00:39:35.679
know health issues or who knows the different things and

563
00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:38.920
challenges that could be happening with the, children too and

564
00:39:38.960 --> 00:39:42.440
they're feeling the pressure and just having someone to, talk

565
00:39:42.480 --> 00:39:49.400
to someone that you know understands them and understands the

566
00:39:49.440 --> 00:39:53.559
path and understands the the services that are going to

567
00:39:53.599 --> 00:39:59.199
be Provided With, fresh start they're going to give them

568
00:39:59.239 --> 00:40:02.280
that that help and they're going to they're not going to.

569
00:40:02.360 --> 00:40:06.320
Feel alone there's nothing worse than battling life and you

570
00:40:06.400 --> 00:40:09.679
have no one on your side to. Help you like

571
00:40:09.760 --> 00:40:12.079
you were, telling us you had a lot of people

572
00:40:12.119 --> 00:40:16.199
that pushed you and keept, you know letting, you, know

573
00:40:16.280 --> 00:40:19.760
hey let's. Try this let's. Try that they need, that

574
00:40:19.800 --> 00:40:27.599
support they need that encouragement just to show, every day yeah.

575
00:40:26.840 --> 00:40:32.400
It's not a. One off here's, your profile, Happy sailing build,

576
00:40:32.400 --> 00:40:38.119
the confidence build a connection and let them know that

577
00:40:38.159 --> 00:40:42.199
the journey is not about them. Being alone but it's

578
00:40:42.199 --> 00:40:45.000
also not going to be something that's so easy that

579
00:40:45.079 --> 00:40:49.320
the next day the world. Magically changed so but but

580
00:40:49.400 --> 00:40:54.280
to give them, the courage to give them the the

581
00:40:54.400 --> 00:40:59.320
energy and the inspiration to start building that life and

582
00:40:59.400 --> 00:40:59.840
taking this.

583
00:41:00.000 --> 00:41:07.480
Steps necessary if you were talking to a young mother,

584
00:41:07.639 --> 00:41:11.119
right now what specifically would you say?

585
00:41:11.119 --> 00:41:16.360
To, them wow it's a. GREAT question I think i,

586
00:41:16.360 --> 00:41:21.360
would say you are where you are for a variety.

587
00:41:21.440 --> 00:41:26.559
Of reasons i'm not here to judge the why, you're

588
00:41:26.599 --> 00:41:32.920
here BUT what i will say is that given where,

589
00:41:32.960 --> 00:41:35.360
you are and given the fact that you are a young,

590
00:41:35.440 --> 00:41:39.800
single mom, you KNOW and, i know and the, world

591
00:41:39.880 --> 00:41:44.000
knows there are major challenges you're going to face to build.

592
00:41:44.000 --> 00:41:49.039
A life what we want to do is to start

593
00:41:49.440 --> 00:41:53.800
giving you and your child a sense of identity that

594
00:41:54.440 --> 00:41:57.400
based on science that no one's going to be able

595
00:41:57.440 --> 00:42:01.639
to take away from your, say no you're, not that

596
00:42:02.039 --> 00:42:04.480
because it's all going to be built INTO your. Dna

597
00:42:04.599 --> 00:42:08.920
code that there are scientists all around the world discovering

598
00:42:09.000 --> 00:42:12.360
new things, every day so that this is this is.

599
00:42:12.440 --> 00:42:16.639
Real science and when you learn what you are ON the,

600
00:42:16.760 --> 00:42:21.599
dna side you can then start thinking about how you

601
00:42:21.639 --> 00:42:24.960
want to leverage that to build the life you want.

602
00:42:25.000 --> 00:42:29.199
To have and that's what will provide, is, coaching counseling

603
00:42:29.280 --> 00:42:31.920
and guidance to help you get where you want. To

604
00:42:31.960 --> 00:42:35.760
go that's a, long statement but that's just that's really,

605
00:42:35.800 --> 00:42:38.679
in ESSENCE what i would, Say right and.

606
00:42:39.079 --> 00:42:42.480
It's, in phases. You know, you know you start out

607
00:42:42.519 --> 00:42:46.719
with making sure the immediate needs are taken, care of

608
00:42:46.760 --> 00:42:50.000
and then you start talking with, them about, you know

609
00:42:51.199 --> 00:42:54.960
what their future can be and giving them guidance on,

610
00:42:55.719 --> 00:42:59.000
you know here's. A plan let's let's start setting up

611
00:42:59.039 --> 00:43:03.679
a plan to actually take those steps to. Get there

612
00:43:04.280 --> 00:43:06.199
and then these are the things that you need. To

613
00:43:06.920 --> 00:43:10.000
do you need to finish and get your high. School,

614
00:43:10.039 --> 00:43:13.079
diploma oh if you want to, do this you're going

615
00:43:13.079 --> 00:43:17.400
to need a four year degree or a technical college

616
00:43:17.639 --> 00:43:24.079
or skills training. Or something and then, you know even

617
00:43:24.159 --> 00:43:28.800
working with, em employers, you know because it may take

618
00:43:28.840 --> 00:43:30.800
a while and, they're like what have you been doing all?

619
00:43:30.840 --> 00:43:34.119
This time i've been preparing SO that i can come

620
00:43:34.159 --> 00:43:36.960
in and be the best employee that you've. Ever hired how?

621
00:43:37.000 --> 00:43:41.639
About that, You know and so, you know working with

622
00:43:41.719 --> 00:43:45.760
employers to give them opportunities to be able to, you

623
00:43:45.800 --> 00:43:51.039
know step into jobs and things. Like that and then,

624
00:43:52.679 --> 00:43:54.960
you know making sure that the children are taken care

625
00:43:55.000 --> 00:43:59.039
of and the childcare services are there and just depending on,

626
00:43:59.239 --> 00:44:04.440
their ages, you know they may be, in daycare they

627
00:44:04.480 --> 00:44:08.840
may be. In kindergarten, you know making sure that we

628
00:44:09.119 --> 00:44:14.000
incorporate transportation and different things. LIKE that i know that

629
00:44:14.119 --> 00:44:17.840
their services or used to be services where you would

630
00:44:17.920 --> 00:44:21.599
get bus passes and different things so that you were able.

631
00:44:21.719 --> 00:44:26.079
To travel so being able to provide, those opportunities so

632
00:44:26.159 --> 00:44:31.039
those girls can dream, and become like, you said what

633
00:44:31.280 --> 00:44:37.519
is INSIDE, Their dna this is inside of who. You are,

634
00:44:38.119 --> 00:44:42.880
you know don't give up and throw away what you

635
00:44:43.000 --> 00:44:46.360
can be because it's inside. Of you you don't even

636
00:44:46.400 --> 00:44:48.519
have to dig. For it and in fact a lot

637
00:44:48.599 --> 00:44:51.360
of people miss it because they don't know what's IN.

638
00:44:51.400 --> 00:44:54.679
Their dna and they might get, a job but they're

639
00:44:54.840 --> 00:44:59.719
unhappy because it's not what they really were built. To do.

640
00:45:00.519 --> 00:45:05.280
Solving problems is that what you, love doing then that's

641
00:45:05.320 --> 00:45:08.599
what we get you involved in certain areas where you

642
00:45:08.639 --> 00:45:13.119
get to do nothing but solve problems and use all

643
00:45:13.159 --> 00:45:16.920
the technology to. Do it and so that's. Really important let.

644
00:45:16.840 --> 00:45:19.840
Me give a Couple of let me give a couple

645
00:45:19.840 --> 00:45:23.000
of examples so your audience has a sense there's a

646
00:45:23.000 --> 00:45:27.360
gene variant for. Being, shy well if you know you're,

647
00:45:27.400 --> 00:45:31.760
genetically shy you can adjust how you act in groups

648
00:45:31.920 --> 00:45:35.760
and how you, meet people because it's when you're a genetic.

649
00:45:35.800 --> 00:45:39.360
It's different there's a genetic variant for not learning. From

650
00:45:39.400 --> 00:45:43.559
mistakes what do we call a kid who doesn't learn?

651
00:45:43.559 --> 00:45:48.199
From mistakes we call. Them stupid but the father whose

652
00:45:48.199 --> 00:45:51.519
son tested positive for the gene went to the school

653
00:45:51.519 --> 00:45:54.920
and said to, the teacher he's, not stupid he doesn't learn.

654
00:45:54.960 --> 00:45:57.039
From mistakes show him how to do it right the.

655
00:45:57.079 --> 00:45:58.760
First, time right.

656
00:46:00.239 --> 00:46:05.679
There's a there's another gene, For agreeableness and if you

657
00:46:05.719 --> 00:46:08.599
have two copies of the, minor gene you don't go

658
00:46:08.760 --> 00:46:11.639
along to. Get along it doesn't mean you're, a jerk

659
00:46:12.039 --> 00:46:15.039
it doesn't mean. You're rude but when someone says let's

660
00:46:15.119 --> 00:46:20.960
do this to, Go well i'm. Not sure but if

661
00:46:21.000 --> 00:46:25.599
you know that, about yourself you can understand how you

662
00:46:25.599 --> 00:46:30.199
could begin fitting. In right so the world because people

663
00:46:30.280 --> 00:46:33.920
tend to judge us based on what we do without,

664
00:46:34.039 --> 00:46:38.239
higher understanding whether it's something we learn or something we were.

665
00:46:38.280 --> 00:46:42.440
Born, with, Right right and that's. REALLY important, i mean

666
00:46:42.480 --> 00:46:47.239
there's so many, you know different, different things and it

667
00:46:47.280 --> 00:46:50.719
does give guidance to the path that. You take and

668
00:46:50.920 --> 00:46:55.599
because you're fulfilling what's what you know is inside, of you.

669
00:46:56.000 --> 00:47:00.239
You're happier you're happier about. The work you're happier about,

670
00:47:00.239 --> 00:47:04.719
Your life you're happier about your destiny of your children

671
00:47:04.760 --> 00:47:07.760
because you know what's in you has now been passed

672
00:47:07.800 --> 00:47:10.679
on to them and you now know how to nurture

673
00:47:11.360 --> 00:47:15.119
those characteristics so that they can have the best life

674
00:47:15.159 --> 00:47:19.039
and have the best direction in. Their lives, AND so,

675
00:47:20.199 --> 00:47:23.960
I mean i'm just so excited About Fresh start science

676
00:47:24.079 --> 00:47:30.480
because it does give a helping hand to, people that like,

677
00:47:30.599 --> 00:47:34.519
you said wouldn't probably never have a chance of meeting

678
00:47:34.559 --> 00:47:39.280
their dreams Without fresh start, being there being there to

679
00:47:40.599 --> 00:47:44.920
one thing let them feel so much more positive about

680
00:47:45.000 --> 00:47:48.119
theirselves or what they're wanting.

681
00:47:48.199 --> 00:47:48.400
To do.

682
00:47:52.400 --> 00:47:54.199
So, go ahead.

683
00:47:56.320 --> 00:47:57.679
What anything else you want to?

684
00:47:57.719 --> 00:48:01.679
GO over i was just going, To, say hey So

685
00:48:02.800 --> 00:48:06.440
Fresh start science is something that you're working, on now and,

686
00:48:07.000 --> 00:48:09.840
you know it's just a matter of time of getting

687
00:48:09.920 --> 00:48:15.320
it launched and making it available to. Young MOTHERS and

688
00:48:17.199 --> 00:48:21.440
i know the audience out there hearing how positive this

689
00:48:21.639 --> 00:48:23.519
is going to be or they're going to want to.

690
00:48:23.599 --> 00:48:30.119
Be involved share your contact information so they know how to, reach.

691
00:48:30.000 --> 00:48:34.760
You okay and the website is being rebuilt so if

692
00:48:34.800 --> 00:48:36.800
they go on, the web they're not going to be

693
00:48:36.840 --> 00:48:40.639
able to see anything, right now but, for me the

694
00:48:40.760 --> 00:48:45.039
easiest email actually There several one is they can Go

695
00:48:45.159 --> 00:48:48.920
to LinkedIn and they can see my Profile on LinkedIn

696
00:48:49.280 --> 00:48:52.199
as long as They spell frederick the, right way which

697
00:48:52.320 --> 00:48:57.679
is WITHOUT, an em WITHOUT. A. K right they can

698
00:48:57.760 --> 00:49:01.000
also send me something to F As frederick Diaz And

699
00:49:01.119 --> 00:49:09.960
DAVID abramson F d Abramson At Golden thread tech goldenthreadtech. Dot,

700
00:49:10.079 --> 00:49:14.000
Com okay and if they send me something and say

701
00:49:14.079 --> 00:49:18.480
that they heard me on, YOUR presentation i will acknowledge

702
00:49:19.079 --> 00:49:23.159
with a reply because sometimes, you know if the email

703
00:49:23.280 --> 00:49:26.800
goes to spam or, gets diverted you. Never knew, but

704
00:49:27.039 --> 00:49:30.639
yeah if you said that you will saw, The presentation.

705
00:49:31.599 --> 00:49:35.360
I'll Respond and i'm open to suggestions and thoughts because

706
00:49:35.960 --> 00:49:40.760
this is. A journey it's about doing something that's in a.

707
00:49:40.880 --> 00:49:45.559
Sense different each individual part has been done independently by

708
00:49:45.639 --> 00:49:49.719
people putting a package like, this TOGETHER and i think it's,

709
00:49:49.760 --> 00:49:53.880
relatively new so we have a lot. To learn and

710
00:49:55.000 --> 00:49:57.599
by keeping it as, a Nonprofit which i'm going to

711
00:49:57.679 --> 00:50:03.280
process of reviving these, young women we already know economically

712
00:50:03.880 --> 00:50:07.599
can't afford to simply pay a coach or, a consultant

713
00:50:08.960 --> 00:50:14.039
so the total cost of the interaction including the genetic

714
00:50:14.119 --> 00:50:19.679
testing has to be done, through support and so people

715
00:50:19.800 --> 00:50:23.519
on the call know the cost of genetic testing today

716
00:50:24.760 --> 00:50:29.360
for a test that will identify seven hundred thousand genes

717
00:50:30.719 --> 00:50:35.800
is less than one, Hundred dollars so we're not talking big.

718
00:50:35.920 --> 00:50:41.599
Money anymore and even though a lot of those genes no,

719
00:50:41.719 --> 00:50:45.880
one has the research hasn't identified the specific traits. Of

720
00:50:46.000 --> 00:50:50.960
interest once we start building, our population we will identify

721
00:50:51.280 --> 00:50:55.079
other things that. Are important so it's a part of

722
00:50:55.159 --> 00:50:58.239
it is to do research to build a learning curve

723
00:50:58.760 --> 00:50:59.920
so that we can continue.

724
00:50:59.960 --> 00:51:04.960
