Hi Mid-Bloomers! Thanks for joining me for part two of my interview with Michelle Hill.   I am super excited to report that her new book, The Heart Swindler – Reclaim Your Heart and Stop Falling for Liars, Losers, and Lunatics highlights was released November 16th.  Michelle shares stories of women who are survivors of romance scams with these self-important and non-empathic individuals. Today Michelle and I discuss her experiences with these a--holes (pardon my French!) and the havoc created in her life. Michelle has the courage to share, without shame, not seeing who these people really were. I love the strength and resilience she has to speak in her truth, and, to help others who may fall for these manipulative ploys of entrapment. We touch on what's currently going on with her publishing company and her favorite part of the process. We also talk about the two children’s books co-authored with her cousin, Joy VanDertuin: multiple award-winning Gizelle’s Silly Soggy Day and Gizelle’s Whimsical Wintery Day. Reach out to Michelle and check out her books;   Heart Swindler website and the Bonus Page website. winningproof.com [email protected] 714.797.3731 In order to grow we must reveal our truth and stand in it. I am brave. It doesn't mean I 'm not afraid. I love myself for where I was and where I am.
