Guest Bio
Vicki Reece, mother of three and Chicago native, is no stranger to the world of parenting and children. She made headline news across the country as a pioneer in the children's toy world, when she created and launched the first ever interactive music, dance/exercise video for kiddos, computer software geared toward children to inspire and empower them and took a stand against not using violence although many retailers asked her to.
During an era where violence ruled Saturday mornings with the Power Rangers and Ninja Turtles, Vicki felt the void of positive and uplifting messaging geared towards youth. With no expertise or training in the software industry she used her life savings and created video and interactive CDs to create products that were an overnight sensation including Jack's House computer software and Kids Count Workout video, among others. Using "word of mom" as fuel to her retail venture, she took on some of the titanic retailers including Sears, Discovery Toys and Wal-Mart, selling out by the millions nationwide and putting her above her veteran competitors. - Length (mins) 10

Guest Bio
Elias Arciniega, 39, has been fighting chronic kidney disease (CKD) for nearly half his life. Happily married for 13 years, Elias has never missed any of his five children’s field trips, and works full-time as an Estimating and Project Manager for a Morgan Hill-based construction company. His remarkably full and meaningful life, he says, is due to his ability to administer dialysis at home. Six days a week he finds 2-3 hours in his schedule to clean his blood. Elias can simultaneously help his children with their homework, or read to them as his wife cooks dinner. “I see my family all the time,” says Elias, whose daughter no longer cries herself to sleep because he’s away from home at a dialysis facility receiving strictly scheduled treatments. “It’s a game-changer.”

Guest Bio
Gabriella Wilday is a mother that is making a difference. Gabriella saw the poor food choices available for school lunches first hand.
These school offerings mainly included processed foods that were not fresh, organic, or toxin-free. Gabriella set out to find out why cost effective lunch options containing "real" food, the kind of food that many families try to serve at home, were missing from school lunches. That led to No Fuss Lunch, a company that provides lunches with natural high quality "real" food.
No Fuss Lunch started in October of 2012 with seven lunches served per day at one school. Now, No Fuss Lunch has grown to serving thousands of students, campers, and families per day with inquires from all over the country.
Like Gabriella says, "No Fuss Lunch is not fussy," it is about not being behind the times. It is about making strides for a healthier future for our children and that message resonates with parents all over. Everything is made freshly from scratch daily, in a commercial, health-inspected kitchen. - Length (mins) 10
