We are supposed to be on a break between seasons of Boldly Stated. But, I couldn't pass up the chance to have this powerful conversation, and I definitely couldn't wait to share it with you.  In one of my favorite episodes of all time, Sam, Nick, and Zoe share their unfiltered perspectives on navigating the "pandemic" school year as students and young adults.

Samantha is a sophomore in college, Zoe is a freshman in college, and Nick is a senior in high school (graduating tomorrow!).   Oh, and in the spirit of full disclosure, Sam and Nick are my kids.

 This episode is dedicated to all the students and teachers. It wasn't always pretty. But, we did it!

The truth is, the stakes couldn't be higher for the kids.

Listen in.

He needed a shock, it might have saved him. But it wasn't available. I can't say why. It was the perfect storm of everything going wrong. Will someone take action to make sure it doesn't happen again? The answer lies in how close it lands.

I invited my law partner and spouse, Raymond Bolourtchi to be a guest on the show to talk about immigration.  As I was about to press "record," we decided to spontaneously change the topic - to why it is difficult to work with your spouse. 

Buckle up....

"Ok, Karen." We all know what it means - more or less. But have you ever wondered WHY it is so easy to identify and label the behavior that qualifies? The answer might surprise you.

Politeness is highly valued in American culture, and for generations, children have been taught to be polite at all costs. What happens, though, when research reveals a direct connection between politeness and sexual assault? This episode will make you question our cultural priorities, and the ways we instill fundamental values.

CAUTION: This episode discusses sexual assault, and the culturally accepted communication practices that can leave individuals, particularly women and girls, vulnerable to being victimized.

I hated running my whole life. I was really bad at it. It was hard. So, like any rational person, I avoided it at all costs. Then, a year ago, I decided to try it again. The strangest thing happened.

In the midst of a crisis, a  private citizen forms a non-profit that has served over 1500 meals in its first 3 weeks.  An elected official chooses to hop on a plane to the Ritz in Cancun.
 
Having a duty to serve doesn't mean you will, and an absence of one doesn't mean you won't. In fact, the title has nothing to do with it. Listen in to this week's episode of Boldly Stated to find out what makes the difference.... and why we should care.
