Whether you’re a fan of American Ninja Warrior or have never heard of the show, you’ll want to hear this week’s interview with the winner of the women’s competition. Bring A Friend welcomes Meagan Martin who is not only an 8-time Ninja Warrior, but someone who reaches new heights in the worlds of rock climbing, modeling, and commentating. She’s Triple A’s quadruple threat!

Is “that person” in your life a psychopath, or just a sociopath? Triple A welcomes Maya Bourdeau, an empath and an expert on human behavior who created a business based on her understanding of why we do what we do. If you’re wondering how to spot and avoid people who might take advantage of you, this episode is a must-listen.

Triple A welcomes April Holmes, a US Paralympic Gold Medalist who won her first gold less than two years after losing her leg in a freak train accident. April’s is a story not only about resilience and victory, but about the process of taking new steps and pushing past obstacles regardless of the challenges life throws your way.

We don’t discriminate! Our friends are men too. Join Triple A as we welcome our first male guest to the Bring a Friend stage: US Senator, Cory Booker! This isn’t your average talk from an elected official. In fact, the Senator gets candid and deep about where he’s been and where he’s going. Talk about “people who get real”, our convo threw him some of the questions we’ve been dying to ask and gave him a platform to be his authentic self. 

Bring A Friend is back and we’re living life out loud. Join us as we share conversations that we usually only have with our best friends: we’ve saved space for you! Here’s a sneak peek at all the shared laughs, deep truths, and meaningful stories Triple A and friends will be serving up. The first episode drops on June 23rd. See you there, and don't forget to bring a friend!

Triple A asks Tina Knowles, Ianne Fields Stewart, Vicky Tsai, Heather Hampton, Ashley Longshore, and other BAF guests to get real about friendship. Enjoy this minisode, chock-full of honest answers to Bring A Friend's “rapid-fire” questions. The only rule is to say the first thing that comes to mind, leading us to the heart of what moves each guest most. 

BONUS ALERT: Before launching season two, Triple A is bringing you a mini-sode where each host picks a moment from season one that resonated most with her. We hope you enjoy this bonus release - a short 'n sweet look back at our favorite moments from last season.

Life’s most trying moments often give us the greatest insight. This is certainly true for Season 1’s final guest, Vicky Tsai. Founder of the globally triumphant skincare brand, Tatcha, Vicky’s mission began as a way to personally recover from the trauma of 9/11 and has since evolved to become the story of a determined Asian female founder who found a way to integrate mind, body, and generous spirit into the products she creates and the way she does business.

While America was fighting fragmentation, Aimee Allison saw the potential in the big picture. This episode gets deep with the founder of She the People, who ignited under-represented and under-empowered women of color to run for office and get out the vote. Aimee was a pivotal force behind the election of our first woman Vice President — she harnessed the strength of her community to swing the country towards fairness. If you need a little hope, this is the episode for you.
