Hey, it's Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I'm excited about sharing stories with you from a new book: Chicken Soup for the Soul: Best Dog Ever. No matter what, everyone's dog is the best dog ever, right? So our new collection of dog stories celebrates everything dog, from dogs that are mischievous to dogs that are surprisingly good, from dogs that are natural therapists to dogs that bring people together, from dogs that are hilarious to dogs that are heroes. And always, dogs are our best friends, and become integral parts of their families. We also focus our stories on dogs that are rescued from shelters or from being strays, and we also make sure to include stories about people adopting elderly dogs, and pit bulls, and black dogs, because those are the types of dogs that are often left behind in shelters, often to uncertain fates.

Hey, it's Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I'm pleased to share new stories with you from Chicken Soup for the Soul: Let It Go, which is our latest best-selling self-help book. I didn't really understand the power of forgiveness to change my life until I started doing this editor-in-chief job at Chicken Soup for the Soul 18 years ago. I always thought that the word “forgiveness” meant that you were excusing the person who hurt you, saying that it was okay. But it turns out that “forgiveness” doesn't mean that. What it actually means is that you have decided not to keep reliving all the negative feelings associated with whatever bad thing happened to you. You may even come to understand WHY it happened and what drove the other person to act that way, which enables you to NOT take it personally. Because it was never really about you. It was about themselves. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

"I'm very, very encouraged because people are shaking yokes off. They don't always know what the next step is or the complete vision, but something again is propelling them towards something better and greater." — Beth Wilson Beth Wilson knew from age seven that she moved through the world differently. Books fell off shelves at the right moment. She felt guided rather than driven. By 14 she realized not everyone experienced life this way. Today she helps people reconnect with that same inner compass — the one that conditioning, religion, and ordinary life have trained most of us to ignore. Her book Escaping Crazytown weaves together childhood trauma, mystical adventure, legislative work in Washington, and decades of coaching into one of the more surprising life stories you'll hear. Raymond brings his own extraordinary story: the woman who wrote down, before they ever met, that her dream man had to be a mathematician, a real estate investor, a teacher, and the author of exactly two Chicken Soup for the Soul books. One man on Earth qualified. These are the kinds of stories that make you wonder what you might have written down — and haven't yet.

Hey, it's Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and it's Wow Wednesday, which is when I find awe-inspiring or surprising stories to share with you. Today I've got a couple of cool stories from Chicken Soup for the Soul: Let Your Dreams and Premonitions Guide You. The stories in this book show you how you can use your dreams and premonitions as a kind of GPS for your life. While you're sleeping, and you're not distracted by all the sights and sounds of the day, you can actually pay attention to your subconscious and it might reveal helpful things. Or you can believe that your dreams and premonitions are of divine origin, and we have many stories in the book that seem to fall into that category too, as they defy rational explanations! One of my favorite categories of dream stories is when someone dreams about love—about their soul mate—and then their dream actually comes true in the future. Often they had never met that person and just imagined him or her. Or, the dream might seem impossible, an idea that everyone would laugh at. Learn more about your ad choices.

And how to change that.He shares four levels of consciousness when it comes to our beliefs around MONEY as described in The Awakened Millionaire, with examples of how he moved beyond homelessness, despair and victimhood to empowerment, surrender and eventually awakening (which he says is only given by grace).A powerful story he shares concerns how a PENCIL moved him from deep bitter despair to gratitude and eventual empowerment.The kind of "money story" a new book Tap into Your Best Money Life is curating for publication with Best Life Publishing.

Listen as our host, Diane Rolston, unpacks something she sees constantly in high-achieving women: being successful on paper but not feeling successful. She gets honest about why accomplishing a lot doesn't always feel like enough and what's really going on underneath.Listen to learn these key takeaways:The podcast award moment: being ranked number 17 out of 50 and what Diane's brain immediately jumped to instead of celebratingWhy high-achieving women reach one goal and almost immediately move the finish lineThe year Diane said, "I didn't accomplish much" and what the coaches around her said that stopped her coldThe client who kept collecting certifications and training before feeling ready to run workshops and what she actually needed that no certification could give herThe sprinter who was asked to run the 1,500 and why comparing your pace to someone else's race makes no senseWhat happened when a client and his two friends sold a company for 75 million dollars and why he felt badThe client who said her next step was a promotion at work and the real answer she gave when Diane asked what would actually make her happyWhy the problem isn't goals or achievement. It's the question we never stop long enough to askThe connection to Diane's one-woman show Chasing: what happens when success doesn't feel the way we thought it wouldWhat the gap between success and satisfaction is really telling you and why outrunning it doesn't workMaybe you aren't behind after all.

"I hate injustice with a passion. And when it was happening to me, I thought — why is this happening? Am I doing something wrong? You start to wonder about your confidence, you start to wonder about your capabilities." — Colleen McAvoy Colleen McAvoy had a long, stable government career — until three narcissistic managers came in succession and changed everything. She started shaking. Her heart palpitated. She stopped sleeping. HR didn't help. The lawyer said it would take years. The organisation's own counselling service told her plainly: get out, this place has a bad reputation. So she left. What followed is a story about what comes after — and what you can build when you stop tolerating what's tearing you apart. Colleen's book Bullies Begone offers tools, strategies, and a genuine blueprint for anyone navigating harassment or discrimination at work, whether they choose to stay and fight or leave and rebuild. Raymond and Colleen cover the uncomfortable ground together: whether victims can unconsciously draw bullies toward them, why organisations often fail the people they're supposed to protect, and why walking away — far from giving up — can be the most powerful act of self-respect available. The workplace bullying conversation nobody wants to have. Worth every minute. Learn more and connect with Colleen McAvoy: Search "Bullies Begone by Colleen McAvoy" on Amazon to find the book.

What if the reason you haven't reached your goal has nothing to do with motivation? Would that make you happy or annoyed? Listen as our host, Diane Rolston, gets honest about something most coaches won't admit and reframes the entire conversation around what's actually keeping you stuck. She makes the case that you don't have a motivation problem at all, and that could be a big relief.Listen to learn these key takeaways:Why motivation is a feeling, not a strategy and why you can't rely on it to carry a 6-month, 1-year, or 5-year goalThe book writing story: what Diane was missing that had nothing to do with motivation and what finally got it doneWhy losing motivation doesn't mean you picked the wrong goal, you're lazy, or you're failing. The first thing you're probably missing instead of motivation and why vague goals are impossible to act on no matter how inspired you feelThe comparison trap Diane fell into while managing a business with two kids under three and what her coach said that completely reframed itWhy we create plans for the fantasy version of our lives instead of our real ones and what it costs usWhy following through for someone else is so much easier than following through for yourself and how to use thatThe simple reframe: you don't have a motivation problem, you have a clarity, plan, or support problemComing up: She's Goaled Group Coaching Mastermind is opening in August 2026 for a September start.

"When you get to the age of 100 and 110 and still have that signal that's strong like we're at 20, we'll reach those older ages at an active state." — Dr. Tommy Rhee Here is a genuinely new idea, explained clearly by someone who has lived at the intersection of elite sport and cutting-edge medicine for decades. Dr. Tommy Rhee — chiropractor, former practitioner for UCLA Athletics and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers — has developed a topical cream that delivers the active signals of stem cell therapy directly through the skin. No needles. No clinic visit. Just the molecules your body needs to tell its own tissue to wake up and repair itself. The science, as Dr. Rhee explains it, comes down to signalling. Stem cells don't become new tissue — they secrete tiny molecules that carry the message to regenerate. As we age, that signal weakens. What Dr. Rhee has done is capture the signal without the live cell, making a molecule small enough to penetrate all three layers of skin and reach the target tissue directly. Thirty days of use, morning and evening, he says, produces results comparable to an injection — at a fraction of the cost, and available without a clinic visit. Raymond and Dr. Rhee also look ahead to where this is going: plant-based versions of the same signalling technology that could bring the price down further and put the product directly in the hands of anyone who wants it.

"Changing your mind is one of the best ways of discovering whether you still have one or not." Raymond Aaron has known Dr. Stephen Bezruchka since the first day of university — two students of mathematics and physics who went on to build entirely different lives, stayed close across sixty years and three time zones, and still have things to teach each other. This conversation is one of those moments. Bezruchka spent over thirty years as an emergency physician before devoting himself to a question that practice couldn't answer: why do some populations live long, healthy lives while others don't, regardless of what individuals do? What he found upended almost everything the standard health conversation assumes. The United States ranks 42nd in life expectancy by the most recent UN data — behind Cuba, Costa Rica, Chile, and dozens of others — while spending roughly as much on healthcare as every other country on earth combined. Bezruchka's research points to three factors that explain far more than diet, exercise, or medical access: the size of the gap between rich and poor, the strength of social bonds within a community, and what happens to a child in the first thousand days of life. His most recent book is Born Sick in the USA, published by Cambridge University Press. His previous book, Inequality Kills Us All, is available as a free download.

Hey, it's Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and it's Wow Wednesday, which is when I find awe-inspiring or surprising stories to share with you. Today I've got a couple of cool stories from Chicken Soup for the Soul: Let Your Dreams and Premonitions Guide You. The stories in this book show you how you can use your dreams and premonitions as a kind of GPS for your life. While you're sleeping, and you're not distracted by all the sights and sounds of the day, you can actually pay attention to your subconscious and it might reveal helpful things. Or you can believe that your dreams and premonitions are of divine origin, and we have many stories in the book that seem to fall into that category too, as they defy rational explanations!

"The world is one big giant oyster, and there's so many different ways to make a dollar, and if you're motivated, it can be made out of just about anything." — Kira Hartley Klinger Kira Hartley Klinger was 40 years old, newly divorced, with a teenager at home, no college degree, and a patchwork of side hustles behind her: cleaning houses, writing resumes, running a paper route with her boys. What she did have was five years of experience selling on eBay, a willingness to buy what nobody else wanted, and an instinct for finding treasure in the boxes at the back of auction lots. She fell into vintage fabric entirely by accident — buying it cheap because it was there, then discovering customers in Japan and Australia who kept coming back for more. She taught herself to date a piece of fabric by its width and fiber content. She opened an Etsy shop. She started writing little essays on her listing pages about the characters she met at auctions, and customers began writing back: you need to write the book. So she did. Twice. And those books led to speaking at quilting guilds, podcast guesting, and a California TV producer who signed her because she believed in the story. At 55, Kira became debt-free for the first time in her adult life. Raymond Aaron talks with her about the wiggly path — the one you can only see clearly by looking backward — and what it means to follow what the world is quietly offering you.

In this episode of the Twiniversity Podcast, Natalie talks with Laurie Donohue, a twin mom of boy-girl twins, about how often standard pregnancy education leaves twin parents out. When Laurie learned she was having twins, she went looking for real data and practical guidance. Instead, most pregnancy books gave twins little more than a passing mention. She eventually found a multiples-specific resource, leaned on family support, and asked her medical team detailed questions to advocate for the birth experience she wanted. Natalie shares how that same information gap helped inspire Twiniversity. Even professional childbirth and lactation training often treats multiples as an afterthought, leaving parents and educators without the support they need. The conversation also covers the fear that comes with the “high-risk” label, the challenge of finding trustworthy twin resources online, and why real support from local twin clubs and other multiples parents matters so much. Most importantly, this episode reminds new twin parents that they do not have to do everything perfectly. Some days, success simply means everyone is fed, safe, and making it to bedtime. You can do this. A QUICK SHOUTOUT

What if the thing keeping you stuck isn't a lack of talent, but the belief that you have to be ready before anyone sees your work? Listen as our host, Diane Rolston, shares what she learned from letting people see her unfinished one-woman show and why none of the lessons are really about theater. She reflects on her recent read-through of Chasing Enough and unpacks what it revealed about perfectionism, progress, and the courage to create before you're ready.Listen to learn these key takeaways:Why waiting for perfect might actually be preventing your progress and the unexpected thing that happens when you bring something finished versus something still in progress to an audienceThe book cover story that changed everything and why isolating yourself while creating is costing you more than you thinkWhat people are actually thinking before you share something you're nervous about (it's probably not what your inner critic is telling you)The one reframe that makes feedback stop feeling like a report card and why Diane went into the read-through knowing she wouldn't get 100%The things we obsess over in our own work versus what audiences actually notice and the major piece Diane completely missed that her audience pointed out immediatelyWhy Diane never creates a program before she's sold it first and how that same principle applies to almost everything you're buildingThe powerful reversal that changes everything: you don't become ready and then share your work. You become ready because you shared your work.One question to sit with: what's your version of an unfinished play, and what would happen if you let one trusted person see it today?Maybe the thing you're waiting to be perfect doesn't need another month in your head. Maybe it just needs one courageous moment in the real world.

We've been talking about self-care all summer… because what better time than to reorient your life and remind yourself that self-care is not selfish; it's part of what you have to do to remain a functioning human being. So making a commitment to yourself should be a priority, at least for some amount of time each day or week. And you might say, well I'll do it later, when such and such thing happens… But when is the time ever going to be right? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

That book is filled with stories of miracles, and healing, and insightful dreams, angelic intervention, divine timing, and just plain cool coincidences. And there are also lots of stories about answered prayers, including two very magical ones that I'm going to share with you today about a couple of mothers who prayed for their children and pulled off miracles.
