Life is queer with its twists and turns. As everyone of us sometimes learns. And many a fellow turns about when he might have won had he stuck it out.Don't give up though the pace seems slow - you may succeed with another blow. Often the goal is nearer than it seems to a faint and faltering man; Often the struggler has given up when he might have captured the victor's cup; and he learned too late when the night came down, how close he was to the golden crown. Success is failure turned inside out - the silver tint of the clouds of doubt, and when you never can tell how close you are, it may be near when it seems afar; so stick to the fight when you're hardest hit - it's when things seem worst, you must not quit.-- by Edgar Albert Guest Dr. Kimberley LinertSpeaker, Author, Broadcaster, Mentor, Trainer, Behavioral OptometristEvent Planners- I am available to speak at your event.

Living With Purpose and Power: Create Your Guiding Stars and Live Your Ultimate lifePeople talk all the time about finding a life purpose. Most never really feel they have a handle on what that is. It seems to be an imaginary state where, every day, you know who you are, what you are about, what to do, and feel excitedly engaged in your purpose.Perhaps, like you, I never knew what my purpose was. I had some vague ideas about what I was “supposed to do,” but no big purpose that created any fire in the belly.We all want to matter and have a big impact. We all want to have abundance. We deeply desire to love and be loved. We seek experiences we remember and treasure. We want deep and meaningful relationships.

At the time, Teri was seventy pounds overweight, hadn't ridden a bike since she was a child, had never even seen a tandem bicycle let alone ride one, and was still reeling from her previous emotionally abusive marriage. As a result, she struggled with herself-image, insecurity, and lack of confidence and self-worth. She describes the process of planning and preparing for the trip, which included how to ride in tandem with a partner, and learning to trust each other along the way. Teri also describes the many challenges they faced dealing with the pandemic and the closures and the obstacles they had to navigate along the way.  She shares her remarkable story with open honesty and a remarkable sense of humor, along with the many lessons she learned along the way, including the realization that she could accomplish anything she set her mind to, finding her self-worth and value, regained her confidence, and many other valuable insights which led her to create her “10 Rules for a Double-Butted Adventure.”  Most of all, Teri would like all of us to understand that our happiness matters, that we all need to discover what we are capable of by getting out of our comfort zone, how embracing challenging adventures helps us find our value and self-worth, to never quit on a bad day, and so much more!  Download this positive, uplifting, and inspiring episode to hear Teri's story, and learn how we can apply her “10 Rules for a Doble-Butted Adventure” in every aspect of our lives.

Welcome to Season 5, Episode 27! We have been known to be obsessed with true crime stories. So we were really excited to read L.A. Coroner: Thomas Noguchi and Death in Hollywood by Professor Anne Soon Choi and published by Third State Books. And we were even more excited when Anne visited us as a guest.  Professor Choi is the Interim Associate Director of Online Pedagogy and Learning for the Faculty Development Center, and Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of Interdisciplinary Studies at Cal State Dominguez Hills. She's a historian and also interested in True Crime as well as Asian American history… so writing a book about Dr. Thomas Noguchi is the perfect intersection of these two interests.  Noguchi was the highest ranking Japanese American official in Los Angeles County during the 1960s and 70s, and he performed autopsies of some of the most well-known people who passed away during that time including Marilyn Monroe, Robert F. Kennedy, Sharon Tate, and Natalie Wood. In our conversation with Anne, she shares her process of research, some of Dr. Noguchi's biggest innovations, how the Asian American community rallied around Noguchi when he faced a racist dismissal, some of Anne's future writing projects, and so much more.  If you love true crime stories and/or learning about Asian American History, then we highly recommend buying L.A. Coroner.

It's a significant test of emotional and mental resilience when someone you love attacks you through gaslighting, projection, moral superiority, subjective morality, innuendos, and storytelling, all of which downplay their actions and focus entirely on your reaction to their behavior or words.

Leslie Grandy, a seasoned executive with leadership roles at Apple, Amazon, Best Buy, and T-Mobile, discusses the underestimated nature of creative capability and how leaders can systematically cultivate it. Drawing from her early career in the film industry and later product leadership across Fortune 50 companies, she presents a grounded, practical perspective on how creativity functions in high-performance environments.   She outlines three foundational skills transferable across domains: enduring ambiguity with resilience, sustaining momentum in the absence of external validation, and solving unfamiliar problems with resourcefulness rather than prescribed playbooks. These competencies, shaped by years in unpredictable contexts, later enabled her to thrive in zero-to-one product environments at scale.   Grandy also offers insight into organizational enablers and constraints for creative velocity. She identifies cultures that treat creativity as the remit of all functions, not just design or strategy, as more adaptive and resilient. Conversely, she cautions against consensus-driven thinking and status quo bias, which she sees as systemic inhibitors. The most effective environments, she argues, reward structured risk-taking and integrate post-mortem learning with equal weight to successes.   Reflecting on her time reporting to Steve Jobs, Grandy explains the discipline of brand stewardship and decisiveness under uncertainty. Jobs' intolerance for diluted brand signals, whether in product UX or retail merchandising, was less a quirk and more an intentional design principle. She recounts how even small misalignments, such as offering engraving suggestions on iPods, were swiftly reversed to preserve narrative clarity.   The discussion also explores her recent book, Creative Velocity, and its guiding premise: creativity is not a fixed trait but a repeatable discipline. Through structured techniques like the generic parts technique and SCAMPER, she argues that anyone, including those outside “creative” job titles, can develop idea fluency and confidence. She emphasizes the role of generative AI as a tool for exploratory dialogue rather than one-shot answers, calling for greater patience and iterative engagement to unlock its full potential.   For senior leaders, this episode surfaces a precise question: Are you designing your organization to perform or to invent? And are you personally equipped to model the latter?   Get Leslie's book here: https://rb.gy/d5zr69 Creative Velocity: Propelling Breakthrough Ideas in the Age of Generative AI   Here are some free gifts for you:   Overall Approach Used in Well-Managed Strategy Studies free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/OverallApproach   McKinsey & BCG winning resume free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/resumepdf   Enjoying this episode?

Award-winning author DL Fowler (the Lincoln Guy) transports readers into his characters' inner worlds. His bestselling work, Lincoln Raw-a biographical novel, imagines how Lincoln viewed the world in which he came of age.  DL Fowler's book, Lincoln Raw is curated in the Lincoln Collection of the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library. Dorothy says, "I am proud to say I am responsible for Larry Fowler being called "The Lincoln Guy" - He'll talk about how Lincoln's era contrasted with ours. On Bill Radke's November 8, 2024, KUOW podcast The Week in Review, his panel wrestled over whether we should continue to focus on divisions and whether we should react differently to hateful rhetoric. I've noticed listeners frequently register surprise when they discover how current controversies often spring from wounds of long ago that fester and remain unhealed. Let's be real. Our nation has always wrangled over the meaning of liberty and the question of who is entitled to it—sometimes at a severe cost.  During Stephen Douglas's 1860 presidential campaign, he championed the idea of government by, for, and of the white man, in contrast with Abraham Lincoln's hopes for a government of, by, and for the people. Larry Fowler notes, "I am Larry Fowler, often called The Lincoln Guy. During the tenth anniversary celebration of my multi-award-winning series, Abraham Lincoln's Lost Stories, I have been struck by how the results of the 2024 election may reveal what might have happened had Stephen Douglas won the White House instead of Lincoln. Two constitutional amendments, the 13th which abolished slavery and the 14th which diminished States Rights and enshrined birthright citizenship in the Constitution, would never have passed. Both increased resentment in the southern states when ratified, and attacks on the latter will likely escalate in the coming months. Larry shares these stories with our listeners on today's show: 1) Lincoln feared that Douglas's election would open the door for white supremacy to dominate the entire Western Hemisphere. 2) Lincoln fretted that slavery might no longer be limited to race and that others who fell outside societal norms were at risk of enslavement. 3) In the decade before the Civil War, mounting threats validated Lincoln's anxieties (e.g. the “filibuster” movement, Bleeding Kansas, and the Dred Scott decision).  Lincoln's determination to stop the spread of Douglas's ideology was at the root of a bloody war that cost nearly a million American lives and left many more maimed. Leila Fadel's NPR interview with actor Jude Law and screenwriter Zach Baylin underscored how their recently released film, The Order, demonstrates that threats similar to those that fueled Lincoln's angst are still alive today. The question is not whether advancement of the American dream will continue to demand a high price, rather it is will we have the resolve to pay the piper. The three titles in Abraham Lincoln's Lost Stories Series have been honored by various organizations including American Writing Awards, the Hawthorne Prize, the Pacific Northwest Writers Association, Chanticleer International Book Awards, Midwest Book Review, Readers' Favorite, Historical Fiction Find more at the author's website at https://www.dlfowler.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

384 Caring For Our Communities   In todays episode Sarah Elkins and Amy Daughters discuss a variety of topics, from finding their calm, to how they try to reach out to those in need of a friend, and the various ways they make others in their lives feel seen.   Highlights Where do you find your calm? Polarization and how it destroys our community. How do you make people feel seen?   Quotes “I didn't set out to do anything. I set out to be some crazy person who wants to write people letters.” “I will save your letter in a special place in my home for the rest of my life.”   About Amy Amy Weinland Daughters, Award-Winning Author and Keynote Speaker, believes in a world where what makes us different is the very thing that connects us, instead of separates us. She brings that world to life by helping people reconnect to each other through the power of hand-written letters. She brings her wit, humor, and having written 580 handwritten letters to every single one of her Facebook friends, to show you how you can find deep connections in some of the most unexpected places. Be sure to check out Amy's LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram!   About Sarah "Uncovering the right stories for the right audiences so executives, leaders, public speakers, and job seekers can clearly and actively demonstrate their character, values, and vision." In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana.

I am so excited for you to listen to my conversation with Ainslie MacLeod, a renowned past-life psychic, author, and spiritual teacher. Ainslie shares his profound insights into the concept of past lives and how they shape our current existence.   According to Ainslie, humans reincarnate multiple times to gain growth, experience, and learn all aspects of being human. Each lifetime builds upon the lessons and experiences of previous lives, shaping our present selves.   He introduced the concept of soul types, which are characteristics and traits we carry from past lives. He believes that understanding our soul type is crucial to realizing our purpose in this life.   Ainslie also provided a mini-reading for me, revealing my soul types and how they influence my life, including my work as a podcaster. He identified my soul age and the past life issues I am currently working through.

Today's featured poet is Ibe Liebenberg (0:03:51) who joins Ann Wallace to talk about his new collection, Birds at Night, published in 2025 by Texas Tech University Press. Ibe is a member of the Chickasaw nation, as well as a firefighter from Paradise, California. With wildfires causing increasing destruction across the nation in recent years, we have wanted to speak with a firefighter on The WildStory—and this conversation with Ibe does not disappoint. It is a reflective one, highlighting the intertwining threads—of land, migration, and ancestry, of family and memory, of fire, loss and healing—contained within his poetry. Spring is here, and in this month's segment of "Ask Randi," Randi Eckel (0:31:47), owner of Toadshade Wildflower Farm encourages listeners to take a gentle approach when tidying up their gardens this season. She explains that because insects and other wildlife rely on leaf litter, stems, and decaying wood throughout the year, plant debris is essential for the survival of many creatures. Next, Kim Correro is joined by guest host Susan Landau, one of the people behind the Foote's Pond Wood Park restoration project in Morristown, New Jersey. Susan has also been instrumental in creating the "Going Native" planting guide for Northern New Jersey, and she collaborates each year on the popular Great Swamp Watershed Native Plant Sale, which is open online through April 18th. More information can be found at greatswamp.org. Together, Kim and Susan interview William Cullina (0:41:10), the F. Otto Haas Executive Director of the Morris Arboretum & Gardens at the University of Pennsylvania. Cullina is a well-known author and recognized authority on North American native plants. During their conversation, he shares his long-term goals for the Morris Arboretum and discusses his research in tree genetics and soil microbiology, as well as an exciting new exhibition titled "Bees, Butterflies, and Blooms: A Pollinator Paradise," which will run this year from May 23 to September 30. In the final segment, Kim and Ann speak with award-winning author and designer Kelly D. Norris (1:08:39), one of the leading ecological horticulturists of his generation. Kelly's new book, Your Natural Garden, is a page-by-page guide through the seasons of a naturalistic garden's life, and the tasks that come with each stage. Kelly explores the connections between people, plants, and place through ecological, site-specific design and art. He talks with Kim and me about the history of natural places, the value of abundance—in life and in planting—and the importance of becoming familiar, beyond the limited information contained on labels, with the plants we have in our gardens and parks. Follow The Wildstory on Instagram at Thewildstory_podcast

For our final episode of Season 8, we are thrilled to welcome Jason De Leon, anthropologist, researcher and professor at UCLA, and award-winning author. Jason's recent book, “Soldiers and Kings: Survival and Hope in the World of Human Smuggling” won the 2024 National Book Award for Nonfiction. Jason talks about how conversations with migrants at archaeological digs in central Mexico led to his interest in immigration. He shares stories of people that have stuck with him over the years, including a young man from Ecuador who went missing in the desert along the US-Mexico border. He describes the history of “prevention through deterrence,” a US border policy that weaponizes the desert to inflict harm on migrants in order to try to deter entry. Jason shares how his latest book, “Soldiers and Kings,” came about by just being present to smugglers in Mexico and listening to them as they shared their stories. Brian and Joe also share stories of being present to people in moments of need. Joe shares the story of Joana, who was stuck in the shelter after legal entry to the US was shut off to vulnerable migrants. As she walked off from the Mass in tears one day, Joe shares the frustration of being unable to help, but the gift that comes from just being present and holding someone as they cry. Brian shares the story of Laura, a young woman from Honduras who has been separated from her mom who has been living in the US for over twenty years. Unable to legally enter, Laura continues to live at the local shelter in northern Mexico, and loves preparing desserts to share. Her mom is undocumented in the US, and lives in fear of deportation after decades of establishing her life here. The situation of Laura and her mom reflects the reality we encounter as Season 8 comes to a close. Many vulnerable migrants remain stuck at the border, unable to return home and with no legal pathway of entry. And millions of migrants across the US live in fear of imprisonment and deportation, and continue to be criminalized, often just for being migrants.Thanks for joining us for this season, and blessings on your Holy Week. We'll be back with a new season in the Fall of 2025.
