Wendy Wilson Spooner, Lic. G., LCoT, is a professional Genetic Genealogist by day, a writer by night, and an artist in between. 

Her love of what we can learn from history compels her to write the true stories she unearths during research, and she’s found that truth is indeed, much more exciting and inspiring than fiction. Wendy writes about family, faith, grief, art, and overcoming obstacles in life by coming to know who we really are—children of God, and, the descendants of remarkable people who paved the way for us—even if they really struggled. She believes in learning from ancestors, honoring them, and then standing on their shoulders to become someone even better. 

As an award-winning author of professional articles and poems, Wendy Wilson Spooner turned to novel writing to share what she knows with a greater audience. When she is not writing or researching, she reads, hikes, paints, travels, binges on Bollywood movies, and spends time with her greatest loves—her family. 

Her debut novel, Once Upon an Irish Summer, released April 3rs. It’s the first in a trilogy, has been an Amazon best-seller in the categories of several different genres. She’s looking forward to releasing book two, Spring 2021!

Today we uncover the "5 T's of strong relationships." This is a great podcast episode for those looking to build healthy and strong relationships of any nature (i.e work, marriage, dating, friendships or family etc...).

After turning to faith in Jesus Christ at age 16 through Young Life in Washington, D.C., I eventually left my modeling career to study the Bible and fulfill God’s purpose in my life. Risking the approval of my beloved father, I set out on a journey in obedience to God’s call. I attend the Christian college that my father forbade and marry the spiritually-minded man my father reluctantly allowed. Even when we were at odds, we remained respectful and devoted to each other.

My testimony is the true story of my passionate prayer for my father to find Christ so he would one day spend eternity with me. My father, Harry S. Dent, Sr., was a powerful, political strategist, who worked for President Nixon and narrowly escaped Watergate. He entered politics to save the world and protect the freedoms of his country. He served a Senator and three Presidents and helped to build the Republican Party in the South. In the early years, he attempted to manipulate me into his success syndrome.

Deep inside my father feared his princess would one day become a missionary. In the end God used it all for His glory. He not only answered my simple prayer of salvation and God’s purpose for my dad’s life, but went far beyond what my mind could ever imagine. Through God’s grace, we team up in ministry together and my dad becomes what he so desperately feared: a missionary.

His full time ministry takes him to Romania where he assists the underground churches and a country emerge to new found freedom following 40 years of communism. My path would take me to the darkest corners of the Middle East where there was no freedom.

The poetic justice in my story proves God’s faithfulness and His marvelous sense of humor. My testimony will motivate anyone who has a loved one they want to see in heaven to pray without ceasing and realize they may be the only Jesus their loved one sees.

Throughout our lives and times, my dad and I experienced different kinds of freedom. Ultimately, we find true freedom together-the freedom that lasts forever.

Public Safety Professionals are killing themselves more than the people they encounter daily in their profession. As a Public Safety Professional this is devastating and unacceptable.

The problem is Public Safety Professionals do not get a lot of training when it comes to dealing with social emotional issues. As a Police Officer, I learned to shoot, drive, fight, enforce laws and protect citizens but I never learned about the social emotional impact trauma has on my family and I over my career.

When I discovered trauma informed care and applied it to my job and my personal life, I realized this training is needed across our industry.

I found the right partnerships and created Going Beyond The Call Mental Health Fitness for Public Safety Professionals. I want to reduce Public Safety suicides dramatically over the next 5 years. Lt. Colonel David Grossman wrote the foreword for our book and had this to say:

"One of the most important books (and programs) of our time. A hidden impact, a stigmatized secret that overshadows the men and women who sacrifice every day. With this training and these tactics for wellness, we can stop the tragic statistics to these professions.

Going Beyond the Call is an action plan for the magnificent individuals who “go beyond the call” every day, and for our very civilization, to survive and thrive amid death and darkness.

We must begin a process, a movement, a revolution, a culture shift in training in which every first responder is well equipped with the information in this vital book and training."

By: Lt. Col. Dave Grossman, author, On Killing, On Combat, & Assassination Generation

This program is designed to help Public Safety Organizations:

*Bridge gaps in the communities they serve

*Reduce liability and lower the bottom line

*Create a higher quality of life mentally, physically, and physiologically professionally and personally.

* Save First Responders Lives
