My daddy has a jaw-dropping perspective shift in this episode.  Connie Polke and I met on the SNF (Skilled Nursing Facilities) Spotlight Series I was producing in Chicago and she was guesting.  Our relationship blossomed from there.  This is one of the final interviews I did in Chicago.  She got to meet my dad, interview me, and I interviewed her. Connie is an animal lover, a helper, and a caretaker of others.  She has overcome abuse, abortion, and raising children as a single mom.  She's worked in healthcare for her whole career as an employee and an entrepreneur and now she's going back to school.  Growing up she asked herself how am I going to get out of this house?  Today we are talking about confidence, believing in yourself, and legacy.  Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space for Controversy.
