Chicken Soup for the Soul with Amy Newmark

We’re going to talk about miraculous life-saving coincidences and I think you’ll get goose bumps from these stories about two women who most certainly avoided death through the luckiest breaks, ones that almost didn’t happen.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with a little Chicken Soup for the Soul inspiration for you, and today I want to share a couple of stories about how even the biggest, bravest dogs can be afraid of some things. And with the Fourth of July fireworks almost upon us, and all those summer thunderstorms, I thought it would be fun to see how other people’s dogs react. We have several funny stories about this in our new bestseller about the Life Lessons we learn from our Dogs.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with a little Chicken Soup for the Soul inspiration for you from our latest bestseller, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Life Lessons from the Cat. We created this book because we learn so much from our cats—they show us how to be better humans and they teach us about resilience and fortitude and loyalty. If we rescued them, they rescue us back. And then there are the times when they just make us laugh, and it’s because of how they finagle extra privileges or how they get away with breaking our rules because they’re so cute. They’re also so independent that they’ll often choose their humans, rather than the other way around.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark and it’s Friend Friday on the Chicken Soup for the Soul podcast. Today I’m talking with Rob & Cheryl Cuccio. Rob wrote a story about literally coming back from the dead for our new book, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Believe in Miracles, so we’re going to talk about that—how he WAS dead… until his wife insisted the doctor go back and keep trying, and also about how Cheryl’s dad was murdered by her classmate back in high school, because he was sexually abusing Cheryl. Cheryl went to jail for that but I have a feeling she wouldn’t change what she did, because she had a little sister to protect as well as herself. We have a lot to cover and a lot to learn today from these this inspiring couple, who overcame tremendous challenges and are here to talk about it.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with a little Chicken Soup for the Soul inspiration for you, and today I’m sharing two stories from our new bestseller, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Believe in Miracles. As the back cover says, this book is filled with “101 Stories about the Miracles that Are Just Waiting to Happen to All of Us,” with true stories of miraculous coincidences, answered prayers, mysterious healing, divine intervention, angels, and messages from heaven. Some of my favorite stories in the book are about when families adopt a baby that is so obviously meant to be theirs, often through really weird and fabulous circumstances.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and today I want to talk about your last holiday gift—the one that you may not have opened yet. This is the one that may make all the difference to you in the New Year—and that is the gift of forgiveness. You know I always said that our writers who were cancer survivors had some amazing insights—they had achieved the kind of clarity you get when you have to focus on what’s essential—and so I wasn’t surprised when I finished my cancer treatment nine months ago and I had some insights of my own. One of them was about removing toxic thinking and emotions, and how we can do that. And that’s why I put our book, Chicken Soup for the Soul: The Forgiveness Fix, on our schedule. It came out half a year later and it was a big bestseller for us coming into the Christmas season and continues to be a big hit in the new year.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and today I’m sharing two stories that are great reminders that we all have an amazing amount of inner strength that we can call on when it’s needed. We’re constantly seeing stories from our writers about how they had no idea they had as much strength as they did, but they discovered this amazing reserve when they needed it. That enabled them to power through even in the worst of circumstances.
