Name: Ladies Who Launch - Time With Tanaka by Blue Shoe
Duration: 44 min 5 s
Description: Christine Merser interviews Patrice Tanaka about choosing joy amidst the chaos and stress surrounding COVID-19, the election, and the general discord in the country at large. Don’t miss the epiphany Christine has, who never considered herself the 'choose joy' kind of woman.

In 1993, almost thirty years ago, families were airlifted out of Bosnia to America, in a situation similar to the one faced by families in Afghanistan now. Our host, for the series Ladies Who Launch, Christine Merser, took a 12 year old girl into her home with her daughter, in much the same way American families are being asked to do now. "I have never talked to Nihada (known now as Nina) about what that was like for her way back then, but she said if her experience could help those coming over now, she would be happy to be interviewed. It was a hard interview. She was 12 when she came to live with us and we never discussed what it was like." Have a listen to hear what it was like for a young girl, plucked from the danger that surrounded her, and brought to America.
