Join us for a Meet & Greet with Ms. Ashley Nicole Russell, Author of The Cure Bringing Dignity and Transparency to the Process and Putting Children First (455 N. Park Venue Change Streeterville Social)

Social Meet Up Announcement| August 9, 2019 at J. Parker Rooftop 3pm to 6:30 pm

We are meeting the author of The Cure at Hotel Lincoln’s beautiful rooftop overlooking the beautiful city of Chicago prior to the private screening of Project Erased. [2][3][1]

The Cure Author

Ms. Russell has written a book, which is available on Amazon. She was Inspired to create a divorce process with dignity. We connected via #CryptoTwitter after Jacob Kosteki introduced us. I have written about this aspect and how Blockchain MAY offer a solution.[5] There are multiple ways this can be achieved. We are not technologists, and this solution is ideation only. If you have ideas we would love to hear!

Erasing Family Pre-Screening- See Below

I personally discovered Erasing Family after assisting clients in a coaching role through their own processes within the current toxic divorce culture that reinforces contention and is less than transparent. [1] [5]

Ginger Gentile, the Director of Erasing Family, a global documentary discussing parental alienation, a toxic byproduct of divorce, which is reinforced through opaque and antiquated Court systems. I have followed Ginger’s work and have been inspired at her undertaking to shed light on this Global issue.

I am very excited to meet Ms. Russell this afternoon and Ms. Gentile this evening. I remain shocked at the vast number of those in crypto and Blockchain affected by these issues, the lack of understanding most schools possess on the methodologies parents use, and the undercurrents of torment this causes many students, which is theorized to feed the insidious cancer of alienation, as most do not realize the scope. We see the children taken at the border, and are devastated, but the traumatic separation of families is not confined to the borders.

Athena.Trade is not affiliated with either party. We simply believe in learning about new uses for the technology and we seek to fuel adoption thereof. By offering a chance to connect those that are impacted and hear ideas on a potential solution and offer greater crossover by and between those who do not know much about Blockchain. By branching out we bring new members into the ecosystem and can exact change in a more efficient manner through sound information and education.

The Cure Lies in Education

“An all-encompassing description of the attorney-author’s divorce journey, research and findings are combined in this manual to plant a seed of change and incite a passion for awareness and understanding of one another. Ashley-Nicole Russell is a divorce attorney, a child of divorce, and a divorcee — she has a rather unique perspective that she deeply shares with you here. In return, she asks the reader to invite others to read along as it appeals not only to parents and children of divorce but also has broader appeal to those with interest in psychology, the law, and self-betterment. “Batteries” are included as the author not only highlights the problems in divorce but also provides the tools to start the change. This book is is a conversation starter to gain awareness and learn from history. Don’t forget the footnotes for some unsolicited advice from the author, and remember that if you are reading this and feel as if she is describing you, your spouse, or your child — do not feel discouraged. This book illuminates the solutions to the long term effects of the divorce culture. Awareness is the key and this book is the beginning of a journey to change our world and how divorce is handled. Society, Self, Partner and Parents are part of the solution. Read to find out how you can help change generations to come.” [4]
