80-year Young Reba Merrill helps Dr. Marissa celebrate her birthday episode and 170 weeks on the air with inside info from her interviews with Robin Williams, Meryl Streep and Whitney Houston. Reba talks about the reality of the casting couch and then lays down on Dr. Marissa's virtual couch to ask her advice about how to handle rejection. Dr. Marissa, aka 'the Asian Oprah' introduces her new term The Van Gough Effect, describing the fine line between brilliance and despair that seems to be a common occurrence in the industry...the irrational fear of failure with 'successful' people, of not being good enough, and self-criticism on steroids. Yes, Happiness is an inside job and a choice! And throughout the interview, Dr. Marissa is happily interrupted with birthday wish calls from other hosts on her syndicated CNBC News Radio KCAA AM 1050 channel. The meaningful week with the Special Olympics in LA was also highlighted. Episode sponsored www.SaltOasis.com and www.AnaheimLighthouse.com
