The Hustler Files Ep 37
WE ARE NOT CONDEMNED TO REPEAT OUR FATHER’S MISTAKES
How many times has someone said, ‘I did the best I could with what I had…it’s not like I had a parent manual to follow’. But, in actuality, there is a manual. Since its publication in 1988, A Nurturing Father’s Journal/Workbook by Mark Perlman, has been adopted by jails and prisons across the U.S. These workbooks are the basis for a 12-week Nurturing Father’s program that is taught by certified trainers to both incarcerated men and those men in aftercare, finding their way back into the community and a new life. The Nurturing Father’s program is entirely voluntary, but many men who attend the program while incarcerated, attend a second time, once released from jail. As Mark Perlman writes, “we are not condemned to repeat our father’s mistakes, we can choose to be the father we want to be”.

Western Mass Business Show on 10.7.23 — Bob Lowry of Bueno Y Sano
In The Western Mass. Business Show
“Bueno Bob” also known as Bob Lowry has made quite the name for himself since opening the first Bueno y Sano (Good & Healthy) in Amherst in 1995. Bob has been working on making a great product better thru employing hard working employees (95% of them from El Salvador), using fresh products, and putting family first in business decisions (his brother, his sister, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and more are involved in operations). Tune in as we discover some interesting unknown facts about Bob and his feelings about life and how to be in community for the benefit of others. A true gem of WMA, we are lucky to have Bob in the 413. Join us to celebrate a local hero.
