Only One In The Room

What if you were a child actor with more than forty film and television credits to your name and had starred alongside A-list celebrities, such as Will Smith and the late, great, Robin Williams?

Lisa Jakub, author, therapeutically focused yoga teacher and mental wellness educator, left Hollywood for Virginia when she was twenty-two, hoping that it would be the panacea for the awkwardness and insecurities she’d been dealing with since her acting career started at age four.

But what would you do if your insecurities moved with you to your new home and you were still finding it hard to leave the house? Would you look for ways to correct the awkwardness that had plagued you for most of your life? Or would you ask for guidance and choose a course that would help you embrace your weird?

What if you excelled at ladder climbing, and were one of a handful of women at your level to garner accolade after accolade and to get promotion after promotion?

Shelley Paxton, author, speaker, transformational coach and podcaster found herself breathing rare air when she was made the CMO of Harley Davidson, becoming one of six women in the executive ranks at a Fortune 500 company. 

But what would you do if you’d made it to the top and found that you felt dead inside? Would you continue on, hoping the next promotion would give you the soul-satisfaction that you were craving? Or would you give notice and take a "Soulbattical", going on a quest to find your best life?

My phone call with Autumn Noel was unlike any conversation I’ve had before. This nineteen year old actress opened up to me about being born into a family that wasn’t prepared to take care of her and not feeling seen or valued until her grandmother won guardianship of her when she was fourteen years old. She spoke about an abusive boyfriend and her dealings with depression, we talked about mental health issues and her suicide attempt. I did my own research and found that studies have shown how unwanted children are at increased risk of juvenile delinquency and psychiatric disorders among other things, so I asked her to come on and share her story with us.

When we first interviewed Gregg Garfield in June of this year, Covid 19 had just claimed the lives of over 100,000 Americans. But as of today, just over four months later, COVID 19 has claimed the lives of more than 224,000 American souls, with more than eight and a half MILLION cases being reported. Despite the fact that President Trump himself was recently hospitalized for COVID 19, one fifth of people polled here in the US still believe that COVID 19 is a hoax.  

Today’s guest, Gregg Garfield’s journey with COVID 19 made national headlines this spring. His story began with a February ski trip to Italy, which led to him checking into Providence St Joseph's Medical Center in Burbank California upon his return from Europe, where he became that hospital's patient zero and was given a 1% chance of survival. When we last talked to Gregg he was preparing to have a number of his fingers and toes amputated as a result of the damage he sustained from the virus.

What if you have a degree in finance, but you can’t pay your light bill and you’re afraid to use your debit card at Walmart for fear that it will be declined?

Naomi Clark, host/creator of The Outspoken Girlfriend Podcast and CEO of Her Money Map, had achieved her goal of making over six figures per year, but still found herself dealing with depression and feelings of shame about her relationship to money.

But what would you do if you discovered that the system to which we all subscribe was designed to make women feel doubtful and distracted when it came to money? Would you create a way for women to transform their mindset and crush their self-limiting beliefs? Or would you keep this knowledge to yourself and let the others fend for themselves?
