What She Taught Me: Talking with Ronna Belinky
<p>In this episode of What She Taught Me with Jill Consor Beck of Go Long, we meet Ronna Belinky — founder of Workflows by Ronna. Her mother taught her kindness, compassion, and non-judgment — mostly by example — so subtly that Ronna never noticed it happening in real time, only recognizing it as a pattern in hindsight. That inheritance shows up now as "showing up": for her kids' games and swim meets, for friends and family on hard anniversaries, and in the compassionate, non-shaming approach to organization and time management that defines her own business. Listen to the episode to learn where Ronna differs from her mother's approach, and why she doesn't see that as a loss.Resources mentioned:• Workflows by Ronna — https://www.workflowsbyronna.com/resources• Gretchen Rubin's Five-Year Journal — https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Gretchen+Rubin+five+year+journalMore about Ronna:• Website — https://workflowsbyronna.com• Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/workflowsbyronnaMore about Jill & Go Long:• Sign-up for Go Long's newsletter — https://golong.substack.com/subscribe• Learn more about Go Long — https://www.golong.me/how-it-works• Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/justgolong/• Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/justgolong• LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/company/go-long/Jump to:</p><ul><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytMwrt5fkvA">00:00</a> Introduction and Series Overview</li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytMwrt5fkvA&t=55s">00:55</a> Meet Ronna Belinky and Her Background</li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytMwrt5fkvA&t=112s">01:52</a> Mother's Influence: Kindness, Compassion, and Non-Judgment</li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytMwrt5fkvA&t=293s">04:53</a> Conscious Practices and Remembering Important Dates</li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytMwrt5fkvA&t=438s">07:18</a> Moments When Ronna Becomes Her Mother</li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytMwrt5fkvA&t=523s">08:43</a> Unlearning and What She'd Do Differently</li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytMwrt5fkvA&t=590s">09:50</a> Did Her Mother Ask for Help?</li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytMwrt5fkvA&t=668s">11:08</a> Living Up to the Pedestal of Her Mother</li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytMwrt5fkvA&t=779s">12:59</a> Differences in Parenting and Independence</li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytMwrt5fkvA&t=922s">15:22</a> Surprising Things Said as a Parent</li><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytMwrt5fkvA&t=997s">16:37</a> Closing Remarks and How to Connect with Ronna</li></ul>

What She Taught Me: Series Premiere with Lisa Consor Behar
<p>What did your mom teach you — and how did it shape the parent, professional, and person you became? In this debut episode of What She Taught Me, Jill sits down with her sister Lisa Consor Behar to reflect on the lessons passed down by their mother, Yvette. From her instinct to protect to the small habits that stuck — like writing thank-you notes and keeping your voice down — they trace how those experiences ripple into their own relationships — and in Lisa's case, her parenting — decades later. They also get into the harder stuff: navigating a parent's Parkinson's diagnosis, offering support from different vantage points, and finding the humor that carries you through.More about Jill & Go Long:• Sign-up for Go Long's newsletter — https://golong.substack.com/subscribe• Learn more about Go Long — https://www.golong.me/how-it-works• Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/justgolong/• Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/justgolong• LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/company/go-long/Jump to:- 00:00 Casual Conversations and Lunch Plans- 01:28 Introduction to Yvette's Lessons- 03:50 The Role of a Protector- 06:29 Parental Roles and Responsibilities- 08:38 Childhood Experiences and Their Impact- 11:31 Generational Differences in Parenting- 14:04 Lessons Learned from Mom- 16:48 The Importance of Personal Touch in Communication- 19:07 Navigating Family Dynamics and Choices- 22:46 The Role of a Guidance Counselor- 28:46 Coping with Parkinson's: A Family Perspective</p>
