Show notes

Today’s episode is going to be one of the best stories you’ve heard all year because it’s a story of a woman who went through one of the most humiliating and difficult situations that a mom could possibly go through and was able to turn it around and not only survive but thrive.

She’s been on Oprah Winfrey, “What Pedophiles Don’t Want You to Know,” Dateline NBC’s “To Catch a Predator,” 20/20 and now she’s sharing her story on The Bubble Lounge Podcast!

Darlene Ellison, M.S. SVP/Veritex Community Bank, Community Bank Lender Motivational Speaker, Author and Founder of Women in Business joins us to talk about how she overcame a family trauma and used her experience to help other women.

Darlene’s book, The Predator Next Door was released in February, 2009. Since that time, the book has been awarded two top national independent publishing book awards, a 2009 IPPY (True Crime) and a 2010 Indie Book Award (Autobiography).

How Sarah-Allen Preston took her passion for gift giving and created an amazing company Feb 16, 2023

Show notes

We strive to make life easier for you by introducing you to local businesses that you will love. Today, we are re-publishing our episode with Sarah-Allen Preston, CEO and founder of The Afloat App, who shares her incredible story how she was inspired to create an app that allows you to send gifts right from your phone.
Like many of us in the Park Cities, Sarah-Allen knows that sending the right gift at the right time is important for building and maintaining relationships with the people in your life.
Unfortunately, it takes a lot of time to search and find the perfect gift; especially if you want it from one of the many unique boutiques and specialty stores we have in our neighborhood.
Sarah-Allen created an app that makes it simple to find what you need from local merchants and have it delivered on the same day.

We think you will find Sarah-Allen's story and the product she created to not only save you time but help you build and maintain relationships with the people that you love.
