This is the 11th year of the Mother-Lovin' 5K race, held in honor of Kelly Mullholland, the wife of Mark Mullholland.

Kelly passed away from cancer and the money raised from the race goes towards Kelly's Angels, which helps kids of parents fighting cancer.

Elaine speaks with Lindsay Callahan, a supporter of the event. They discuss how great it is to give kids traumatized by their parent's fight against cancer a chance to have a special day.

Two friends have started a community of women who brunch. But the catch is, they do it online. It's called Brown Skin Brunchin' and one of the founders, Lillian Jackson, is Elaine’s guest.

Lillian says the idea came out of the need for adult women to meet girlfriends without having to go to bars. She says it's a great way for brown-skinned women to share their commonalities, have someone to talk with, and eventually meet up.

She says the idea started five years ago and continues to grow.

Do you talk about yourself negatively? Do you expect that you will lose before you win? Do you hang around people who think and speak negatively? Nicolette Goldston often answered “yes” to those questions. But that all changed when she began to take a look at herself and not others.
Nicolette says her life changed dramatically when she reevaluated it. She's written a book to help others. It is called “Becoming HER: The Ultimate Guide on Shifting Your Mindset to Change Your Life.”

This women's history month, we look at women in the financing industry. How many are in the C-suite, what decisions are they making to help consumers, and is this an industry that has diversity. Elaine discussed those issues with Angela Dixon, senior vice president and chief diversity officer at Berkshire Bank.

We also talked about diversity not being just upping the number of people of color, but also giving them access to the programs offered by the bank -- like the mentoring programs and other options to help them move up in the company.
