Kathryn interviews Author Wakisha Stewart.Cardiovascular disease is the #1 cause of maternal mortality in the United States, accounting for over one-third of maternal deaths, with Black women having among the highest maternal mortality rates. Why is childbirth such a risky condition for U.S. women’s health, especially for Black women—and what can be done about it? Wakisha (Kisha) Stewart shares her near death experience following her second pregnancy and the racial disparities in the healthcare industry that contributed to it. Her memoir is both a moving, lyrically told story of a decade-long struggle to survive a near-fatal heart attack with dignity and a clarion call for community-wide mobilization to guarantee health care equity. She is a nurse and was a national spokeswoman chosen in 2022 by the American Heart Association (AHA) to educate the public about the risks of cardiovascular disease.Kathryn also interviews Author Lindsey Glass.This first, most important bond, the mother-daughter relationship, can be fraught with pitfalls and devastating ups and downs — the seeds for which may have been planted generations ago. Sometimes, it can seem like the conflicts have no end, leaving the mother or daughter exhausted, exasperated and sad for all that has been lost. Bestselling author Leslie Glass and her daughter, award-winning documentarian Lindsey Glass, share their guide to help readers repair the fractures in their mother-daughter relationships. Through sharing their own compelling, tumultuous history, they help readers understand that even if mothers and daughters go off track, go to war and part ways for years, they can still find their way back to friendship, understanding and love. They are editors of the popular online recovery and wellness magazine Reach Out Recovery. Together, they produced the award-winning documentary The Secret World of Recovery and the WEDU/ PBS special The Silent Majority.

Kathryn interviews Author Mark Robert Rank.Americans tend to believe that success comes from hard work, determination and little else. That attitude leads, and has led, to a threadbare social safety net and the undue suffering of millions — so why are we still holding on to the idea? Social welfare professor Mark Robert Rank shows how dramatically our lives are shaped by utter randomness. He unpacks how our aversion to the very idea of luck—our need to believe that personal success or failure comes from internal strength or weakness—leads to policies that weaken the social safety net and favor those who, by chance, were born with a leg up. He’s been featured on NPR, NBC Nightly News, the PBS NewsHour, CBS News, CNN, and many others.Kathryn also interviews Author Jonathan Fanning.In a world where creativity is increasingly recognized as a vital skill, Jonathan Fanning, a renowned leadership and creativity expert has discovered a blueprint of 5 powerful and practical strategies to unleash creativity. He draws on decades of research and experience to provide a comprehensive guide for understanding and nurturing creativity. Through inspiring anecdotes, thought-provoking questions, and powerful – yet simple – strategies, readers will learn how to overcome creative blocks, cultivate a creative mindset, and harness the power of imagination to solve problems and pursue their passions. He has been coaching leaders – from Fortune 500 executives to sole proprietors – for almost 20 years. Jonathan was voted the best speaker at a recent TED conference.

Kathryn interviews Author Sarah Cart.In suspenseful and heart-rending detail, Sarah Cart recounts how, beginning with an incurable autoimmune disease, her husband developed one life-threatening condition after another. As each month passed, she felt her best friend, this brilliant businessman, successful entrepreneur, and energetically engaged father to their four sons, slipping away, until eventually they received devastating news: Ben needed a heart transplant. But that was only the tip of the iceberg. Two weeks after the COVID-19 lockdown, they realized Ben’s body was shutting down and his only hope was to get on the list and get that transplant now—in the midst of a pandemic. Thrust into the role of nurse and caregiver, she required a deep well of faith and grace as she confronted doubts, fears, endless setbacks, and red tape while struggling to help Ben regain whatever he could of all that had been lost.Kathryn also interviews Author Dr. Judy Ho.Attachment style forms the foundation for how we understand trust, security, and build our self-concept and self-esteem, which then affects how we achieve goals, approach physical and mental wellness, and how we relate to friends, family, colleagues and romantic partners. Triple board-certified clinical and forensic neuropsychologist Dr. Judy Ho reveals how insecure attachment style—which affects up to 75% of the population—impacts our lives more than we realize, and how we can heal the wounds that prevent us from living our best lives at any age. Grounded in the science of attachment, she offers a revolutionary approach that teaches readers how to change their anxious, avoidant, or disorganized attachment style in relationships, friendships, work, goal-setting, and most of all, our sense of self. She is a tenured Associate Professor at Pepperdine University and a two-time recipient of the National Institute of Mental Health Services Research Award.

Kathryn interviews Author Myra Sack.When their daughter Havi was a year old, Myra Sack and her physician husband Matt Goldstein noticed delays in her physical development. After physical therapy was prescribed with no noticeable progress, and more developmental milestones were missed, Myra and Matt, driven to find answers, sought out pediatric specialists. On December 17, 2019, their world was shattered. At fifteen months old, Havi was diagnosed with Tay-Sachs, a fatal neurodegenerative disease that can be revealed through genetic testing but was misreported to the couple. Havi was given just a year to live. Sack offers the readers nothing short of “an act of grace” in her memoir of Havi’s short life and the tragic journey to help her daughter live and die. She is certified in Compassionate Bereavement Care and has written for numerous publications including the Boston Globe, Upworthy, Hadassah Magazine and TODAY.com.Kathryn also interviews Author Kyne Santos.Kyne Santos began her drag career while at university and became known for her drag tutorials on YouTube.

Kathryn interviews FranklinCovey Senior Consultant Todd Davis.In these increasingly divisive times, with ongoing layoffs, mergers, and return to office adjustments - difficult conversations are fast becoming the norm in the workplace. However, recent client interviews and workforce surveys from FranklinCovey, the global leader in leadership and professional development, found that both leaders and employees often avoid having difficult conversations or feel that they handle them poorly. In response to these results, Franklin Covey Senior Consultant Todd Davis addresses the top challenge in difficult conversations: the emotional tension. He teaches us strategies and tips for shifting mindset from the fear of difficult conversations to seeing them as the way to make progress on important issues. He has over 35 years of experience in human resources, talent development and executive recruiting.Kathryn also interviews Author Marc Houser PhD.Each year at least a billion children around the world are victims of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) that range from physical abuse to racial discrimination to neglect and food deprivation. Those dealt a hand of ACEs are more likely to drop out of school, have a shorter life, abuse substances, and suffer from myriad mental health and behavioral issues. Neurobiologist and educator Marc Hauser PhD provides a novel, research-based framework to understand a child’s unique response to ACEs that goes beyond our current understanding and is centered around the five Ts—the timing during development when the trauma began, its type, tenure, toxicity, and how much turbulence it has caused in a child’s life. He is the founder of Risk Eraser, a program that helps at-risk kids lead healthier lives. He is a former professor of evolutionary biology and psychology at Harvard University and the author of over three hundred papers.

Kathryn interviews Author Bella DePaulo PhD.It's common knowledge that single women are lonely, desperate for a partner, and envious of every couple they see. Spinsters struggle later in life, never feel fulfilled, and would just love for you to set them up with your neighbor’s nephew. But, what if society’s ideas about single people—who, by the way, comprise half of the adult population—are wrong? Bella DePaulo PhD challenges the notion that single life is something people settle for, and shows that for millions, in every part of the world, being unpartnered is the key to their most joyful, fulfilling, authentic, and psychologically rich life. Drawing on more than three decades of social science research, and her own experience as a 70-year-old woman happily single her entire life, DePaulo—whose TEDx Talk on the topic has more than 1.7 million views—paints a bold and groundbreaking picture of the myriad benefits of investing in your single life. Bella DePaulo PhD ( Harvard University) has always been single and always will be. The Atlantic calls her “America’s foremost thinker and writer on the single experience.”Kathryn also interviews Author Dr. Kathleen Corley.Without question, schools today grapple with obstacles unheard of a generation ago, and yet, elementary school principal Dr. Kathleen Corley has figured out how to transform her school into a warm, nurturing community where students embrace a passion for learning. As a 40-year veteran in elementary education, she shares how to overcome current obstacles in education with human interest stories that illuminate a brighter path forward. Using humor, insight and optimism, Dr. Corley reminds readers that despite the problems in schools today — disagreements about what students should or should not be taught, the lingering effects of COVID, etc. — magic still happens in classrooms. She who has been called a Pied Piper of Education, can be seen leading the student drumline down the halls of Palmetto’s Finest Award-winning Red Cedar Elementary School.

Kathryn interviews Author Lynda-Ross Vega.In a world of rapid change, pandemics, political divisiveness, and social media stress (to name a few things), it's easy for you to doubt yourself and worry that you aren't enough. When life doesn't live up to your expectations, it's common to assume it's your fault but the reality is you are enough. You have natural strengths that will support you in every aspect of your life. The key is to recognize and use those strengths. It’s all about perception. Coach Lynda-Ross Vega and Clinical Psychologist Gary Jordan can teach you the science and psychology behind perception. With over 35 years of experience in senior management and as a business owner/entrepreneur, Lynda-Ross is an expert at harnessing the power of perception to help individuals and organizations implement change, empower collaboration, and develop talent.Kathryn also interviews Author Angela Radcliffe.Artificial Intelligence (AI) is in the news daily. Everyone is talking about it. Governments are discussing how to regulate it. It is the wave of the future and has already begun to change our world.

Kathryn interviews Author Randy Fertel PhD.Improv has given us some of the greatest creative work ever produced. From Louis Armstrong to Robin Williams, their genius was forged from their in-the-moment brilliance. Improv has also led to great advancements in science, technology, and business, with the idea of “yes, and…” leading to the openness that drives innovation. But as Randy Fertel—born in New Orleans and raised on its jazz—shows us, improv has also led to phrases like “Lock Her Up,” and the rise of a past—and perhaps future—President who connects with his supporters with an off-the-cuff speaking style they perceive as authentic and straight-shooting. Fertel explains the persuasive power of Trump’s charismatic BS-ing in historical context, and he shows how a facility with improvisation has played a pivotal role in so much of our cultural, political, and scientific development. He has a PhD from Harvard University, and is president of the Ruth U Fertel Foundation, named for his mother, Ruth Fertel, founder of Ruth's Chris Steak House.Kathryn also interviews Author Stephan Poulter PhD.Men are in crisis. The old model of masculinity is dying. Women are saying “enough” to it and so are many men. Your father’s masculinity—the one that denied him any emotions except anger and too often led to tragic personal, familial, and social outcomes—is rightfully going the way of the dinosaur. But what should replace it and how can men embrace a new, healthy model of masculinity? Stephan B. Poulter Phd offers a comprehensive answer. Threaded with stories from his work with men, self-assessment quizzes, and practical strategies, he guides men in cultivating emotional intelligence, building meaningful relationships and overcoming trauma. He sheds some light on the link between toxic masculinity and male violence as well as the shame men experience when asking for help from doctors or medical professionals. Stephan is a renowned LA based clinical psychologist with over thirty years of experience. He is married, a father of four, and an author of several books including The Shame Factor and Father Your Son.
