Barbara Legere's son Keven often begged for her permission to end his own life — like any loving mother, she did everything in her power to preserve his life. Keven spent half his life struggling with addiction while his single mom battled the courts, health care companies, rehab facilities, and mental health professionals who had all but abandoned Kevin. While she navigated the dark worlds of her son's depression and substance abuse, Barbara also felt guilt about what she could have done differently to save his life. When Ken did take his own life, Barbara became an advocate for parents who are witnesses to overdoses, arrests, addiction treatment, incarceration, and most terrible, the death of a child. Keven's Choice is Barbara's intimate memoir of a mother's grief, a mother's way of showing that it's possible and even necessary to go on, even amidst the unimaginable.

“I don’t see myself reflected in a lot of financial education, and for many people, financial information doesn’t feel accessible or appealing. I bring capitalism-critical, shame-free education to healers, hustlers, and creatives in order to catalyze change in their financial lives. I believe healing our finances will bring blessing to our lives, our lineages, and our communities. I use my intuitive abilities, my experience as a tax preparer and bookkeeper, and the collected wisdom of my financial coaching practice to help people live more peacefully with their money.” Jessie-Susannah — The Money Witch!

In 2005, Blythe Hill began paying attention to the issue of human trafficking. Even with a deep sense of urgency to help, Blythe felt helpless. She wasn't a lawyer, doctor, or social worker; her interests and talents were in fashion, trend analysis, and blogging. She believed she had nothing much to offer to the fight. But in 2009, out of boredom, Blythe challenged herself to wear a dress every day in December. Each year that has followed, more and more people have joined Blythe's one-person challenge, and now it's become an international movement. To date, Dressember campaigns have raised over 16 million dollars to fight against human trafficking. CEO and Founder of Dressember Foundation, Blyth Hill, joins Christopher and Heather to share the power of a dress.
