It’s easy to feel overwhelmed with everything going on in the world. But we’re eager to take what we’ve learned in 2020 and put it to use - we know there will always be challenges; the key is to look for the helpers… or better yet, BE the helper. So, we invited Branden Harvey, founder of Good Newspaper, to talk about how we can turn feelings of hopelessness to helpfulness.

We have shared so many wonderful conversations with guests this year and now we have saved each of our favorites for last

We are interviewing… each other! Conversations throughout the year have encouraged us to explore themes of family, joy, self care, community and purpose. Weaved within all of those is the theme of relationships. So it felt right to end of this first season of the podcast with just the two of us, where it all started - At Home. In this chat, we ask one another about ways we’ve grown, our friendships, the moment Linda knew Drew was the one, and what makes Drew feel most alive.

‘Tis the season we all start thinking about the past year and setting resolutions for 2021. Linda & Drew look back on memorable moments and inspiring lessons from Season 1 of At Home.

Chef Gabriele Bertaccini (host of Netflix’s Say I Do) joins us At Home to chat about how food brings us together and helps us connect on a deeper level. He shares his experience growing up in Florence and recalls how he fell in love with the ritual of cooking. We talk about his work on Say I Do, the power of vulnerability and how opening up helped him overcome the darkest moments of his life when he was diagnosed with HIV. Chef Gabe’s positive outlook will inspire you to create joy and cherish life's little moments!

We have two very special guests to talk about something that’s all around us - the air we breathe in the buildings we’re in!

Eric Christian Olsen (actor, producer, activist) joins us in our chat with Dr. Joe Allen (Associate Professor, Deputy Director, Harvard Education and Research Center for Occupational Safety & Health) to share information about how our indoor environment affects our cognitive health and productivity. Dr. Allen is a leading expert in helping the public navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, with particular attention to healthy buildings. His goal is to improve the health of all people, in all buildings, everywhere, every day.

And he provides tips on things we can do at home to help keep us healthy.

Randy Jackson (America’s Best Dance Crew, American Idol) joins us from his home to share his journey to becoming healthier, happier and more grounded. He is known for his legendary work in music - from Aretha Franklin, Cèline Dion, Tracy Chapman, Journey, NSYNC and so many more. But today, we go beyond the music and bright lights to talk about the scary event that launched him into his mission to reclaim his life and identity.

We chat about all of the different (and some bizarre!) diets he has tried and everything he learned along the way that lead him to finally create Unify Health Labs — a nutrition company that approaches health holistically, treating your mind, body and soul.

Jim Kwik (everyone’s favorite brain coach) joins us At Home to share ways we can upgrade our mind, boost our mental fitness and unlock an exceptional life. He gives a few tips on the easy things we can do in our own homes to set our days up for success, especially during these trying times!

Be sure to catch the part where he challenges us in a little memory exercise to see how we did!

Rob Paulsen (Animaniacs, Ninja Turtles, DuckTales) joins us on At Home to share how laughter got him through life's biggest challenges, from being a struggling actor to overcoming throat cancer. He talks about how the courage of his grandparents immigrating to the United States solidified his drive to pursue his passion. We talk about what it takes to get out of our own way and then at the end of the chat, we even try out few character voices ourselves!

Jonathan Scott returns to At Home to chat about a very hot topic: the sun! We learn about opportunities and obstacles when it comes to achieving energy freedom in a way that is better for the planet and people.

She has garnered great support through her people-powered campaign and values-based platform and she talks to us about the importance of involving the public in the change making process.
