In a first of its kind interview, Jenny interviews her mom to find out how she healed from a traumatic brain injury more than 40 years ago when Jeanette Anchondo was pregnant with Jenny.

She's proven a lot of people wrong over the years and in this episode, she details what kept her going and how she learned to read and write again, went back to work and went on to have two more successful pregnancies.

Fort Worth-based actor Jordan Walker Ross sits down to talk about how he learned to overcome his limp, cerebral palsy and severe scoliosis to land roles in 1883 and The Chosen. That limp had a negative impact on his acting career for a long time – having casting directors and agents tell him to “lose the limp” and even being replaced from the project because it was too distracting. It wasn’t until he was cast in The Chosen that he started to love his “limp” and the things that make him different. Some of his grit and determination come from watching his grandfather, Barry Corbin struggle to get roles early in his career. He has his own podcast as well -- here it is; https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/whats-your-limp/id1565831292

Teaching toddlers the basics of money-making and money-saving? Vince Shorb, the founder and CEO of the National Financial Educators Council says not only is it possible... it is imperative. If you haven’t started yet, no worries. He’ll get you on the bandwagon. It’s not something our kids will necessarily learn about in school, so a lot of that education is up to us. Vince fell into his own personal financial challenges in college and the struggle led him to creating a place for all of us to go, to learn about money. Vince says molding positive financial behaviors should start around age three. In this episode, he explains how to do that.

We're taking a ‘second shot’ at giving, and potentially, how to solve poverty around the world. Michael Faye is the co-founder of GiveDirectly, which is the largest nonprofit that lets donors send cash directly via mobile money transfers to people living in poverty. To date, they’ve distributed more than $500 million. It’s a concept Jack Dorsey has invested in and Mackenzie Scott (former wife of Jeff Bezos) has contributed to. Faye says what people have been doing wrong when it comes to poverty is that they assume we know what people need, instead of giving them cash to make the decisions themselves. Don't forget -- the TV version of Second Shot airs Thursday in Dallas on CW-33 TV!
