Myra Wallace, Author of "Beauty Come Forth" joins Mother Love in

studio to empower women to step into their own beauty not some false sense of beauty that

the media perpretrates on us, her FREE online magazine Beauty Come Forth as well as her

new TV talk show Stir N Up the Gifts set to debut on The Hosanna Network December 2010.

Television Icon Bern Nadette Stanis! Joins Mother Love for a candid conversation about her

books, career, marriage, mother hood and being true to yourself.

She is best known as Thelma from Good Times! But there's much more to her than that. In

the 70s, Bern Nadette Stanis was the personification of Black Beauty. As sophisticated and

graceful as she was, she still became TV's first Black sex symbol or "It" girl.

Thelma/Bern Nadette and The Evans Family also proved many stereotypes wrong about the

ghetto and the young black girl, like for instance...that all Black girls and Black

families in the ghetto had no hopes, dreams, or class. Thelma showed that a "ghetto girl"

had hopes and dreams, intelligence, respect, dignity and grace, and it wasn't just acting,

Bern Nadette was that naturally. She introduced a new definitive image of the young Black

girl and woman. She is so grounded and well loved and a great daughter as she had her

ailing Mother with her.
