Theresa was a talk show host (TalkZone.com) for her own internet radio program, titled “Put It All On The Table Through Mediation.” It aired bi-weekly, on Thursdays at 8 am MST. The premise of this show was to not only have great conversations about mediation; but, to educate, inform, enlighten/inspire the general public about the great benefits that are contained within the mediation process. A few years later, she changed the format and the name of her podcast to “Here’s Theresa”, which is still broadcasting on Talkzone.com. The reason for this change was to broaden her abilities and conversations with her guests, to be more inclusive for topics that were meaningful and important to her, that she felt would be another way to teach, inform and enlighten her listeners, for approximately 9 successful years.

Theresa is a strong believer for knowing that we all have a God Given Life Destiny(s) to reach, which attributes to the importance of reinventing herself, as she is no longer in the Justice Court System hearing Small Claims or Civil Traffic Cases or Mediating Cases for the Phoenix Attorney General Office or in her Private Professional Mediation Practice and neither is she being a Podcast Host.

“For Me, In Life, There Is Never A Dull Moment. Only Teachable Moments. It is within these moments, that I learn that “Nothing Lasts Forever, but Gods Love.” This is also where I allow these moments to instruct me, to give me the necessary tools that I need, in order that I may gain clear understanding as to why this situation is happening to me, so it doesn’t happen again.

For I realize that it is within these dark times of life’s struggles that I grow closer to God and that I can acquire the needed wisdom, confidence, gratitude, awareness, strength, knowledge and experience, to combat an unwelcoming life event. All that I refer to as Life’s Magnificent Tools.
As I have learned to consistently embrace, acquire and combine these tools in my life, for I have realized that they can certainly Sharpen my Entire Perspective On What Needs To Be Learned and What Needs To Change In my Life and Then how best to Employ Them With An Open Mind, Which Can Result, In Knowing, Just How Wonderful Life Really Is.”
