Host Elizabeth Hill speaks with author Mary Bub about her new book, Letters to Betty at 80: Reflections on Authentic, Wise, and Eccentric Years. Mary shares how writing letters helped her process grief after her husband’s death, the lessons of the "grief box" and daily "ordinary things," and how those practices evolved into workshops and community support. 

The episode also covers Mary’s persistence getting media attention (including a TV appearance), practical discussion prompts for readers, and upcoming local workshops for those facing loss and caregiving challenges. 

In Letters to Betty at 80, Mary Bub encourages readers to not just follow along on her eightieth trip around the sun, but to travel with her. Letters to Betty at 80 explores themes that readers of any age can relate to—feeling out of place, acceptance versus resignation, perspective, and familial relationships—with the unique perspective of someone who has lived a long life (82 years!)

Today, I lead a short guided writing meditation to bring clarity about current national events, your personal life, and daily thoughts. Use a pen and paper (or sit with the words silently), take calming breaths and gentle movements, then free-write about what you feel in your body, how events have impacted you, challenges and joys at home or work, one thing that gives you hope, and one concrete action you will take. Close with a heart-centered breath to carry hope forward.

On the launch day of Eat, Love, Heal, dietitian Sheryl Ravalese talks about writing her first book, how food has shaped her life, and why sharing personal stories can be healing. She explains how emotional eating, grief, neurodivergence, and chronic symptoms intersect with nutrition and mental health.

The episode also highlights family recipes in the book, practical guidance for people who feel stuck despite normal medical tests, and the message that everyone has a purpose. 

Elizabeth Hill talks with Natasha Walstra about how authors and leaders can use LinkedIn to build an audience, personal brand, and business through authentic content, profile optimization, and relationship-based social selling.

They discuss what content performs best, ideal posting approaches, using personal vs. company pages, avoiding AI shortcuts, and Natasha’s Relationship Growth Method for turning book content into bite-sized posts and real conversations that drive results. 

Elizabeth Hill reflects on a quiet, snowy weekend interrupted by the pain of recent killings and the broader history of systemic oppression in the United States.

She shares her struggle with privilege and responsibility, urging white listeners to educate themselves, amplify marginalized voices, and engage in honest conversations and action.

The episode closes with a short guided breathing and movement meditation (10:39) to help listeners ground themselves and commit to compassionate, sustained engagement.
