1:14:42Now PlayingJoy Thomas Moore discusses her book, "The Power of Presence", at Politics and Prose on 9/22/18.
As a single mother with a demanding career, Moore developed ways to ensure that she could guide her child’s life even when she wasn’t able to be with him as much as she wanted to. Other determined and resourceful parents have practiced similar skills, and Moore tells their stories as well as her own, illustrating in the process the seven pillars of presence that bind parents and children. In this inspiring and practical companion to parenting, Moore, a Peabody Award winner and President and CEO of JWS Media Consulting, shows mothers and fathers how they can use heart, faith, mind, courage, financial freedom, values, and connectedness to be there for their children all the time. Moore is in conversation with her son, Wes Moore, author of The Other Wes Moore and The Work; Politics and Prose co-owner Lissa Muscatine moderating the discussion.
