Today I get the wonderful opportunity to speak with Rita Vanacore, a business owner in Uptown Kingston for forty years and co-owner of Dreamweavers Salon and Dominick’s Cafe. During this time, she has also been an educator for professionals in her service profession teaching styling, and other techniques, the recipient of numerous national awards for her contributions to the industry, and always an active campaigner for women’s rights, gay rights and children’s health issues. She hosts “Planet Seniors” on Radio Kingston as a dedication to the idea that senior citizens are valuable members of our community whose voices should be given just as much “air time” as everyone else. Our conversation winds through various aspects of her rich life from women’s rights, abortion rights, gay rights, spirituality, family, business and self care. Rita’s show is live on Monday evenings from 8-9pm or anytime on the Radio Kingston archive.
Next I play my interview with Aliza Rose Theetge, a dynamic and confident 9 year old who’s ready to be a women’s activist. She likes to point out that her initials spell ART, which she loves, and loves math, singing and dancing. She’s been studying Marie Curie in school who’s inspired her to become a women’s activist. We talk about lots of things like math, art, singing, being scared, bus drivers, Marie Curie, being a big sister and golfing. I look forward to seeing her on the big screen some day!
Self care wisdom from Theresa, we are not our thoughts, we are aware of them; we are not our emotions, we feel them; we are not our body, we experience the world through it…
