Siggy Flicker: What You See Is What You Get...
Siggy explains why her children's indepence is a bitter pill to swallow.
There’s no denying that what you see is what you get with Siggy Flicker. During the Six Day War, my mother went into labor with me in a BOMB SHELTER in Israel. From the very beginning of my life, everything I do, I do in a BIG way! Big mouth. Big dreams. Big heart.
There’s nothing more important to me than the positive relationships in my life. I love relationships so much, I made them my living! My career as a relationship expert brings me so much joy and keeps me constantly busy. All relationships take work and, just like a car, they need maintenance. Even though we are deeply in love, Michael and I benefit from some fine-tuning here and there, too.
Speaking of Michael, although quick, he finally made his first RHONJ appearance! We had so much fun celebrating Teresa and her new book in NYC. I wish her continued success in everything she does in life! May Teresa always know her worth, and may you ALL always know how valuable you are!
I will do anything to support my family and my friends, especially my best girlfriend for life, Dolores. Through thick and thin, I’ll always be by her side. When Dolores hurts, I hurt. My heart absolutely broke for her when she lost her Boo. I wish I could’ve done more to ease her pain, but I was content just to snuggle up in bed with her and let her know I’m always there for her. Whether it’s mourning the lost of her beloved Boo or helping her figure out her finances, I’m there to help her. Dolores is well on her way to being independent of any man, and getting her bills in order was a crucial part of the process.
Independence for Dolores is great… it’s my children’s independence that I’m clearly having a rough time dealing with. It’s funny how I’ve raised my kids to be successful on their own, and now that it’s really starting to happen, it’s my worst nightmare come true! Josh getting his license has been a very difficult pill for me to swallow. My kids have been my world since they came into my life. I soak up every minute with them that I possibly can. I love driving Josh and Sophie wherever they need to go, because it’s quality time we spend together and a great opportunity for me to find out what’s going on in their lives. What else can I say? I’m a Jewish mother -– I can’t help being all over my kids!
It’s so important to surround yourself with people who want the best for you, and who you can root for in return. Getting rid of the toxic people in your life is crucial if you want to be able to reach your fullest potential. Life is too short to put up with anyone’s B.S.
Think BIG … and watch out for trashcans! That thing came out of nowhere.
