This week, host Dr. I. David Daniels speaks with Dr. Virginia Heslinga, a wife, mother, grandmother, teacher, and now author, about her memoir, “Grace Interlaced.”
While psychological health and safety is an active endeavor, parts of this effort require us to consider the past. In the workplace, an expectation that people be able to bring their whole selves is commendable and vital. However, each of us has parts of our whole self that are different, challenging, and sometimes even traumatic. In Dr. Heslinga’s case, a significant event in her childhood that she had locked away from an emotional perspective subconsciously influenced many of her life decisions, including her choice of a profession and how she interacted with others. Awaken by a series of events, including the pandemic, she began to write a memoir that she is now sharing with the world.
