Can you envision going through high school and college without ever being asked out on a date? And all the while wondering what was wrong, was it the city you were in? The guys that you were attracted to? Or was it you?

Dating and relationship expert, Damona Hoffman decided to try online dating in the early 2000’s and then proceeded to fall in love with the process, delighting in the science of “soul swiping”, and developing a side hustle, coaching others through the online dating hacks she discovered while finding her own soulmate.

What would you do if after marrying your husband and getting promoted to Vice President in your dream career, your friends still clamored for your guidance on their quests to find their ideal mates? Would you make your side gig your main gig and devote yourself to helping people find their life partners? Or would you decide it was better to hold on to your VP status, even if it suddenly felt inauthentic to who you really were.

In the beginning, he was a shy, skinny kid who joined the wrestling team at his Palm Springs high school and then surprised everyone by switching gears and entering into the world bodybuilding at age 17.

American bodybuilder, Chris, “the real deal” Cormier, dedicated all of his time to his craft and was named first runner-up a record 6 times at the prestigious Arnold Classic. And at the peak of his career, Cormier was said to be well on his way to achieving the ultimate prize -- the coveted Mr. Olympia title.

But what if one day, an unforeseen hospitalization threatened your life and consequently derailed your quest for the title for which you’ve worked since 1983? Would you throw in the towel and start a new career at the age when most of your peers were thinking about retirement? Or would you decide to switch gears and guide someone else toward that elusive prize, the one which had always remained, just out of your reach?

Can you picture spending your summers on your grandmother’s farm in Oklahoma? Living off the bounty of the earth, playing in rivers and coming in breathless and muddy at the end of every day?

Supermodel and environmental activist, Amber Valletta, was discovered at age 15 and became a staple on catwalks and on magazine covers by the time she was 18 years old. And even though she was living a life that most people only ever saw on MTV, she found herself nostalgic for the clean streams and organic harvests of her youth.

But what would you do if the most effective way for you to bring attention to the environment was to get arrested? Would you join actress/activist Jane Fonda in Washington DC for Fire Drill Fridays and risk getting cuffed? Or would you decide to keep a lower profile and support your cause in a way that might not result in a mug shot?

In an effort to really acknowledge this time, this crisis that seems to keep going on and on, hosts Laura Cathcart Robbins & Scott Slaughter track down some real life heroes and she-ros who are currently showing up on the front lines of this pandemic. People like nurses, doctors, advocates for the homeless community, teachers, grocery store workers, firefighters and more.

When COVID 19 first traveled out of Wuhan, China, it hit Italy first, quickly finding its way to the wealthy Lombardy region and settling in. Of Italy’s 159,516 cases, Lombardy has over 60,000. And of Italy’s 20,000 deaths - over half of those were in the Lombardy region. Today we spoke with my dear, long-time friend, Josine de Wolde (pronounced, YO-seen deeVoldah) who grew up in and currently lives in the Lombardy region.

Josine is the NYT Circulation and B2B Sales Director for Italy, UK and Ireland. She lives in Taino Italy, just outside of Milan with her husband and two daughters ages 14 and 17. Please note that Josine gave this interview as my friend and is not speaking on behalf of her employer, The New York Times.

Imagine, growing up without running water outside of Philadelphia and then, as an adult, finding yourself managing the careers of such Hollywood luminaries as Martin Sheen, Mark Wahlburg and Pierce Brosnan. And being on speaking terms with US Presidents, everyone from Ronald Reagan to Barack Obama.

Dolores Robinson, Executive producer, talent manager, reality TV star and mother of season two guest, Holly Robinson Peete, took her two kids and moved to Los Angeles three decades ago, and made a name for herself as one of the most prolific managers in the biz.

But what if one day, just after your 71st birthday, you got a diagnosis that other people might consider to be the beginning of the end? Would you start planning for your inevitable demise? Or would you kick those gloomy notions to the curb and decide to live your best life ever?
