Today we’re joined by Cara Lockwood, USA Today bestselling author of more than 35 books, including the hit The Takeover and the beloved I Do (But I Don’t), which was adapted into a Lifetime Original Movie. Cara’s latest work, There’s No Good Book for This but I Wrote One Anyway, blends memoir, humor, and pep talks, offering readers a candid look at her journey through breast cancer. In 2023, during a routine mammogram, Cara was diagnosed with Stage 1 HER+ breast cancer. She fought back with a double mastectomy, chemotherapy, and reconstructive surgery — and went into remission in 2024. Her latest book, "There’s No Good Book for This but I Wrote One Anyway: The Irreverent Guide to Crushing Breast Cancer" (Oct. 1, 2025), is the no-nonsense, laugh-out-loud guide she wishes she’d had during her own journey. Part memoir, part pep talk, and part screaming into the void, Cara’s book offers patients hope.

This episode was interrupted several times for unknown reasons. We are choosing to publish it as is for now. Government, aliens or who knows may not have wanted all the facts revealed. More in our next episode with the Lewis's.

Leslie and Stephen's book Who They Are: And What They’re Up To dives into UFOs, abductions, hybrids, ancient history, and spirituality. Today we explore how their work connects to the idea of Star Seeds — people who feel they carry alien seeds. Discussion on hybrid offspring and alien–human programs. See the parallels with the Star Seed concept, where some individuals believe they carry extraterrestrial DNA or spiritual lineage.
