Welcome back to The Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T., where we empower women to step into strength, resilience, and purpose — body, mind, and spirit. Today, we're celebrating one of the most beloved holiday films of all time with someone who lived it from the inside out. Jimmy Hawkins — who played Tommy Bailey, the youngest son of George and Mary Bailey — joins us to share the heart, history, humor, and humanity behind It's a Wonderful Life. Now, nearly 80 years after its release, Jimmy has gathered decades of interviews, rare photos, cast and crew insights, and untold behind-the-scenes stories in his brand-new book, The Heart of It's a Wonderful Life, releasing September 23rd. Jimmy opens up about what Frank Capra poured into the film, how Jimmy Stewart used the emotional scars of World War II to shape his performance, and why the message — one life touches so many others — is more important now than ever. Whether you've watched the film a hundred times or you're seeing it for the first time this season, this conversation will remind you that you matter, your life has meaning, and you make a difference. Key Themes The universal message that every life has value Why viewers in today's world need that reminder more than ever How the film teaches us that ordinary acts have extraordinary impact Jimmy's story about showing the film in Attica Prison Inmates recognizing themselves in George Bailey's journey How the movie inspires personal change in unexpected places Capra refused the studio system so he could make the film his way Why the movie originally failed — and how TV saved it in 1974 The idea that "God had a plan" for when the world would discover the film How his experience in WWII shaped the raw intensity of George Bailey Why Stewart said he could not perform certain scenes twice Capra's sensitive direction and deep understanding of trauma How being part of the cast shaped his purpose The journey behind writing his new book Why the story continues to guide him personally and professionally "One Life Makes a Difference" — The Core Message The film teaches us: You matter. Your life has purpose. You are impacting others in ways you may never know. Questions Asked What has kept the message of "It's a Wonderful Life" so relevant for nearly 80 years? Why does the film resonate so deeply with generation after generation? What inspired your new book, and what did you want readers to experience? How did Frank Capra's independent vision shape the final film? What mattered most to Frank Capra in creating this story? Can you share more about Jimmy Stewart's emotional preparation and depth? How has being part of this film shaped your life? Why do you think the movie failed at release but exploded decades later? Quotes: "The movie never changed — the people changed. They need that message now more than ever." — Jimmy Hawkins "George Bailey didn't think he did anything for anyone. And look what he did." "You were born to do something in this life. Maybe you haven't done it yet — but you will." "Frank Capra didn't believe in the committee way of making movies. He wanted to make his film his way." "God had a plan. The pieces weren't there in 1946 — but they were in 1974." "This movie tells everybody: you're important. Go get your dream." "We don't think we're making a difference. But we are. What you do does matter." — Linda Mitchell Jimmy Hawkins & Book Links Book — The Heart of It's a Wonderful Life by Jimmy Hawkins — available for preorder/release: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1400255104  Book (audiobook / digital) on Google Play Books / Audiobooks — https://play.google.com/store/audiobooks/details/AQAAAEAqmWHZWM  Information & Announcement about the Book Release (2025) — https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250729801695/en/Its-a-Wonderful-Life-Actor-Jimmy-Hawkins-to-Release-His-New-Book  Where to Stream "It's a Wonderful Life" As of now, "It's a Wonderful Life" is available on: Amazon Prime Video — stream or rent the film  Xumo Play, Plex, Hoopla, and other free-with-ads platforms — depending on your region. 

Welcome back to The Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T., where we help women step into strength, vitality, and purpose — body, mind, and spirit. Today's guest is a leader in the science of brain health, immune function, and evidence-based nutrition. Dr. John E. Lewis, Ph.D., is the Founder and President of Dr Lewis Nutrition® and one of the most respected clinical researchers in his field.

After decades in academia, Dr. Lewis shifted from research to real-world impact, driven by one core belief: nutrition is our number one behavior for achieving and maintaining long-term health. For more than 27 years, he has lived what he teaches — a whole-food, plant-based diet, targeted supplementation, and a consistent, disciplined fitness routine. In this conversation, we dive into the science and practical strategies that can help you protect your brain, strengthen your immune system, and take control of your health at any age. WHAT WE COVER IN THIS EPISODE Dr. Lewis's personal journey – What inspired him to pursue clinical nutrition research – Key discoveries from his years at the University of Miami – Why he chose to leave academia and create solutions for the public The power of polysaccharides – What polysaccharides are and why they matter for brain and immune function – How plant-based sources like aloe vera and rice bran support cellular repair – Why nutrient-dense compounds can outperform isolated supplements Nutrition and long-term health – The biggest problems with the standard American diet – The role of chronic inflammation in disease – How whole-food, plant-based nutrition supports cognitive longevity Lifestyle, supplementation, and real-world habits – The dietary and supplemental strategies Dr. Lewis uses personally – Key nutrients that support immune and brain health – His top five daily behaviors for long-term vitality Simple steps to get started today – How to determine which supplements are truly beneficial – The most important action anyone can take right now to improve their health trajectory LINKS & RESOURCES Dr. Lewis Nutrition® — Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T.

Welcome back to the Sisterhood of S.W.E.A.T., where we help women build strength from the inside out. Today, we're taking a deep dive into the root of human vitality — the minerals that power every cell in your body. Our guest, Caroline Alan, is the co-founder of BEAM Minerals and a passionate educator on the critical role humic and fulvic substances play in cellular function. Years ago, Caroline found herself stuck in chronic inflammation, adrenal burnout, brain fog, anxiety, and full-body depletion while navigating a stressful corporate career. No matter what supplements she tried, nothing worked — until she discovered humic and fulvic minerals. What happened next completely changed her life. Within months, her inflammation calmed, her adrenals began recovering, her sleep normalized, and her energy returned. A follow-up test showed her adrenal function restored — even though she never took the hydrocortisone her doctor prescribed. The only change she made was adding minerals back into her body. Today, Caroline and her co-founder, Dan Howard, have built BEAM Minerals into one of the cleanest, most trusted mineral lines available — helping thousands restore balance, energy, and resilience at the cellular level. If you've been feeling drained, foggy, anxious, or "off," this conversation will change how you think about minerals, nutrition, and cellular health. UNDERSTANDING MINERALS STARTS IN THE CELLS 1. Caroline's Turning Point What was happening in your body before you discovered minerals? What symptoms were the biggest red flags that something was wrong? How did you find humic and fulvic minerals, and what changes showed up first? 2. Why Modern Humans Are Mineral-Depleted How does soil depletion affect the nutrient content of our food? Can organic food solve the problem, or is supplementation now essential? Why stress, toxins, and processed foods drain minerals faster than we realize. 3. Recognizing Mineral Depletion Common signals: fatigue, anxiety, brain fog, poor sleep, cravings, dehydration, or hormonal instability. Are there accurate ways to test for mineral status? Why hair analysis and tools like Oligoscan may provide better insight than blood tests. 4. Getting Minerals Back Into the Body What makes humic and fulvic minerals different from typical mineral supplements? Why the body absorbs minerals only when they're delivered in the right ratios. What people should know about electrolyte packets, mineral blends, and isolated supplements. How to begin replenishing safely and effectively. 5. Real Results & Cellular Homeostasis How restoring mineral balance changes energy, sleep, mood, and hormone function. Why cellular homeostasis is the foundation of vitality.   BEAM Minerals https://beamminerals.com Mineral Geek (Educational Resource) https://mineralgeek.com Instagram — Caroline Alan https://instagram.com/carolinealan.official Discount for Sisterhood of Sweat Listeners: Code: SOS SWEAT (all caps) for 20% off

This week, Linda sits down with renowned molecular biologist Dr. Bill Andrews, one of the world's leading researchers on telomeres and human longevity. Dr. Andrews has dedicated over 30 years to understanding why we age—and how we might stop or even reverse the process. In this powerful conversation, he breaks down what telomeres really do, why they shorten, and what current science can (and cannot) promise when it comes to living longer, healthier lives. He also discusses Televital, the only supplement he says has been shown to induce telomerase, and why true age reversal still requires large-scale gene therapy research. If you want a grounded, science-driven look at longevity without the hype, this is an episode you'll want to hear. What Linda Talks About With Dr. Andrews What telomeres are and why they control how long our cells live Why shortening telomeres is the real driver of aging What telomerase is and why activating it matters The difference between slowing aging and reversing aging Why most "anti-aging" products only change biomarkers—not true aging The "tug-of-war" analogy that explains how telomere length changes How Televital compares to other supplements Why gene therapy may be the key to true age reversal How much research funding is needed to move longevity science forward Why some aging claims sound promising but fail the "Betty White Test" Why Dr. Andrews believes real age reversal is possible in our lifetime Main Topics Covered Understanding the Cellular Clock of Aging Dr. Andrews explains how every cell in the body loses a bit of its telomeres each time it divides. When telomeres get too short, cells can no longer replicate—and this is a major reason we age. The Telomerase Breakthrough He clarifies why the only way to actually lengthen telomeres is through telomerase activation, and why most supplements claiming to do this simply cannot. Why Slowing Telomere Shortening Still Matters Even if something cannot reverse aging, slowing the rate of cellular decline can still have meaningful long-term impact. Dr. Andrews explains why Televital is the only supplement shown to induce telomerase, and how it affects the "tug-of-war" between shortening and lengthening. Biomarkers vs. True Reversal From DNA methylation to glycosylation, many companies claim "reversed aging" based on biomarkers. Dr. Andrews outlines why these measurements don't mean actual age reversal—and what real reversal would require. The Betty White Test Dr. Andrews' signature test: if a product truly reverses aging, you should visibly look, feel, and function like you did decades earlier—not just change lab numbers. Gene Therapy: The Future of Longevity He discusses ongoing efforts to develop gene therapy capable of fully restoring telomerase to adult cells—and why he believes it's possible within the next few years with adequate research funding. The Company Bringing His Research to Market Dr. Andrews explains why he partnered with Touchstone Essentials to launch Televital and praises their commitment to health-first product development rather than profit margins. He also highlights other Touchstone Essentials products including: Glucocontrol (converts sugar into fiber) Zeolite-based detox products for heavy metals and toxins Fulvic acid (the active component of shilajit) Where to Find the Product Dr. Andrews Recommends Televital & Touchstone Essentials: https://thegoodinside.com

But now he's sharing a story no one has ever heard before—his own. In his powerful new book Born Lucky: A Dedicated Father, A Grateful Son, and My Journey with Autism, Leland opens up about his childhood struggles, the relentless dedication of his father, and how love, grit, and resilience shaped the man we see today on primetime TV. Leland, welcome—it's an honor to have you with us. 1. You've been on camera for years as a journalist, but this is the first time you've opened up about your personal story. What made now the right time to write Born Lucky? 2. The book really honors your father's role in shaping your life. Can you share a moment that captures his determination to never let you be defined by your diagnosis? 3. Growing up, you faced painful bullying and rejection. How did those experiences shape your resilience and your drive to succeed? 4. You describe your father quitting his job to essentially “coach” you through life. What were some of the unusual or even tough methods he used that ultimately paid off? 5. From not speaking as a child to anchoring a national news show—your journey is extraordinary. What do you think surprised people most when they learned your story? 6. Your book is both raw and hopeful. What do you want readers—especially parents and kids facing similar challenges—to take away from it? 7. James Patterson praised Born Lucky as “a beautiful, emotional, true story.” What has that kind of support meant to you personally? 8. Now that the book is out, how do you hope this changes the broader conversation about autism, labels, and what's possible?
