In this episode we depart a little from our usual "Only One" format to bring you a guest whose love and light was too good not to share with you. We bring you Cynthia Bailey, you might know her from The Real Housewives of Atlanta, she's also a major friend and supporter of The Only One In The Room. She was in town recently and came through to vibe with us for a minute and she brought her fiancé Mike Hill with her. As we were lucky enough to catch her for just an hour between her many engagements, of course we turned the mics on the moment they walked into the studio. We really hope you enjoy it!

Imagine a world where everyone is the same. The same gender and race, a world where they all wear the same clothes and have a shared belief system. Now imagine someone wants to enter that world. Someone of a different race and gender, someone who wears different clothes and subscribes to a different belief system. Arlan Hamilton, a 39-year old Venture Capitalist, founder and managing partner of Backstage capital and prolific podcaster, was homeless and on food stamps before she appeared on the doorstep of the world of Venture Capitalism, demanding to be let in. But what if one day you were admitted to the world that had previously denied you admission? Would you take your well-earned-seat at the table, content to be “one of the boys” or would you you open the door for other people like you, who have also been underestimated by society?

Picture yourself living the dream, you are in a loving, committed marriage, own thriving, growing businesses and have a close-knit circle of friends, who like you, are expecting to complete their similarly “perfect lives” with a baby or two. Sara Dean, Seattle-based podcaster, business woman, motivational speaker and business and transformation coach, knew that at age 37, she had waited longer than many of her friends to start “trying” for a baby. But when she found herself attending baby shower after baby shower for friend after friend, Sara began to wonder if she and her husband had waited too long. But what happens if you’re told that you may not be able to have the baby that you’ve been hoping for? Do you subject yourself to IVF, a costly, months-long journey filled with daily hormone shots, egg harvesting and implantation? Or do you take your chances and continue trying for your baby without medical aid, hoping against hope that the odds are in your favor?

Show business can be a cold business, but what if you were one of the lucky few who made it, I mean really made it? You booked movie after movie and series after series, had a loving husband and three beautiful children. Some people would say you had it all, right? Lisa Vidal, star and co-star of shows such as New York Undercover, Third Watch and Being Mary Jane, has a reputation for being a consummate professional, handling with ease, whatever comes her way. But when the changes in their oldest son’s behavior became too conspicuous to overlook, Lisa and her husband Jay, found themselves facing something for which no one can ever be fully prepared. What would you do if you were expected on set, but your first born son was grappling with an addiction, one so intense that it threatened his life on a daily basis? Would you put your career on pause in order to be on-call for your son, hoping that he decides to get the help that he needs? Or would you continue to be the professional and show up at work every day, knowing that any moment you could get the call that every parent dreads? More From Lisa Vidal: Watch her new series coming soon to ABC "The Baker and The Beauty" Listen to more of Lisa's son Scott Cohen's songs (Dying 2 Live -Remix featured at end of episode) on Soundcloud Finding Lisa Vidal: Twitter: @thelisavidal Instagram: @thereallisavidal If you'd like to ask a question and be featured during the Dear Laura segment you can DM us on instagram @theonlyoneintheroom or email us via the website www.theonlyonepod.com.
