[Content Warning]: Domestic violence, child abuse, abandonment, narcissismToday, Jan is again joined by Hope Rose, a previously sponsored ultra endurance athlete, a self-published author of Unstoppable Vision, a health+wellness book, and featured in many publications such as NBC Nightly News and the Today Show. The emotional conclusion follows Hope's ongoing fight for justice and healing after the unthinkable loss of her son. She describes the bittersweet moment she finally reunited with her child after three years of no contact, and how she ministers to other incarcerated women as a "light in dark places." Hope dismantles the illusion of closure, sharing how some days the grief still feels like a tsunami—yet she chooses daily to "serve love, not trauma." Her story transforms into a mission: exposing how family courts profit from broken families while offering real solutions through her Glow Up Sisterhood, a healing community for mothers navigating similar battles. The episode culminates with her metaphor of the Hope Rose—a flower blooming through cracks in concrete—symbolizing how our deepest wounds can become our purpose. Together, these two parts form a masterclass in resilience, showing how to alchemize injustice into unshakable strength.Join Glow Up Sisterhood for FREE using Promo Code: F8EB678Buy Hope Rose's book Unstoppable VisionWhere to find Hope Rose:HopeRoseSpeaks.comInsta: @hoperosespeaksIf you or someone you know is experiencing emotional distress or suicidal ideation, please access the resources below:National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline: Call/Text 988National Sexual Assault Hotline  (RAINN) : 1-800-656-HOPE (4673)National Alliance for Mental Illness: 1-800-950-6264Subscribe / Support / Contact:

[Content Warning]: Domestic violence, child abuse, abandonment, narcissism Today, Jan is joined by Hope Rose, a previously sponsored ultra endurance athlete, the self-published author of Unstoppable Vision, a health+wellness book, and featured in many publications such as NBC Nightly News and Today Show. In this gripping first installment, Hope Rose takes us through her incredible journey from elite ultra-runner to survivor of unimaginable trauma. She shares how her athletic discipline prepared her for life's hardest battles, including escaping a dangerously abusive relationship where she discovered her partner was still married and manipulating her life. The nightmare escalated when the family court system, which she describes as "legalized child trafficking," allowed her ex to obtain full custody of their son through an ex parte order—with no evidence or due process. Hope recounts her arrest for "custodial interference" after refusing to surrender her child, spending 130 days in jail while her son was placed in foster care. Amidst this darkness, she reveals the spiritual tools that sustained her, including a couple powerful daily forgiveness practices and her unwavering commitment to being "the steward of her story."Join Glow Up Sisterhood for FREE using Promo Code: F8EB678 Buy Hope Rose's book Unstoppable Vision Where to find Hope Rose:HopeRoseSpeaks.com Insta: @hoperosespeaks If you or someone you know is experiencing emotional distress or suicidal ideation, please access the resources below:National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline: Call/Text 988National Sexual Assault Hotline  (RAINN) : 1-800-656-HOPE (4673)National Alliance for Mental Illness: 1-800-950-6264Subscribe / Support / Contact:

Welcome to Season 5, Episode 16! April 30, 2025 marks the 50th anniversary of the Fall of Saigon. So we're excited that our conversation today is with Vicky Nguyen, an award-winning NBC News Daily anchor and Senior Consumer Investigative Correspondent. She can be seen regularly on The TODAY Show, NBC Nightly News, and NBC News NOW. And that's not all! Her latest work is the touching and inspiring memoir Boat Baby. It details the story of her and her parents, and their journey from Saigon to the U.S. Throughout their struggles and successes in America the reader is treated to touching and funny stories of their experiences. Born in Saigon, Vietnam, she and her parents fled the country in the dead of night on May 4, 1979. As with so many Southeast Asian refugees from 1975 through the 80s, they encountered several life or death challenges before finding their way to the refugee camp at Pulau Bidong, Malaysia. After staying there for 10 months, they had the good fortune of being sponsored to come to America. In our conversation, we talk about her personal journey to being an award-winning journalist as well as her thoughts on fate, embracing change, the privilege of being a role model in media, and so much more. We highly recommend going out and getting Boat Baby. If you want more of Vicky, watch her on the various shows she's on, follow her on instagram, or visit her website to see some of her special reports. We especially like her special reports on the rise of anti-asian hate entitled The Racism Virus as well as her very personal four-part story From Saigon to Silicon Valley.

NBC has announced that Tom Llamas will take over as anchor and managing editor of NBC Nightly News after Lester Holt's departure. But why was Holt pushed out? Did he really quit, or was it a forced exit? In a bold move, the producers of Hamilton have canceled its 2026 engagement at Washington, DC's Kennedy Center, citing the Trump administration's changes to staff and programming as their reason. Meanwhile, Justin Timberlake is reportedly mulling over an NSYNC reunion to win back fans after a rocky solo career. But would the other band members join him? Also, after 23 years on air, ESPN's Around the Horn will sign off in May, signaling a shift in the network's focus. Plus, Alex Ovechkin is closing in on Wayne Gretzky's NHL goals record, and fans are watching closely.

The massive wind storm last night left thousands across the Puget Sound region without power. Washington Superintendent Chris Reykdal claimed that there are more than two genders. Congressman Ted Lieu (D-CA) is blaming Trump for high egg prices. A new poll has very strong numbers for Donald Trump. // Joy Reid’s former MSNBC colleagues express their outrage at her firing. Lester Holt is giving up his post as Anchor of NBC Nightly News. // Chaos ensued at a congressional hearing. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) called Americans stupid for reelecting Trump.

On this episode of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered,” Donald Trump called out MSNBC's low ratings over the weekend at CPAC. Joy Reid has since been fired from her show, "The ReidOut." Additionally, NBC stalwart Lester Holt is exiting "NBC Nightly News." Are we witnessing a transition of the mainstream media, or are the networks trying to salvage their bottom line? If the deep-staters were nervous about Kash Patel's confirmation as director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, they're now panicking over vocal FBI critic Dan Bongino being appointed deputy director of the FBI. Elon Musk sent out an email over the weekend requiring federal employees to list their job accomplishments from last week, and it has Democrats losing their minds. The episode concludes as Sara and the panel enjoy Tom Homan's speech at CPAC. Homan does not care about your feelings. And finally, New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) is closing down immigration activity at the Roosevelt Hotel and 53 additional shelters. Finally! It has only taken two long years!!

“Facing Denial, Embracing Vulnerability” Join me and my guest Dr. Andrew G. Kadar. Dr. Kadar, is a renowned physician at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and was used to taking care of patients—not being one himself. But just as he was embarking on a new marriage, a few episodes of minor chest pain sent this healthy, successful anesthesiologist to his doctor's office, where he received a shocking diagnosis: he had severe heart disease and required immediate open-heart surgery. With extraordinary wisdom and unflinching candor Dr. Kadar describes his unexpected journey as a man in seemingly excellent health into the dire realm of illness and subsequent recovery. Dr. Kadar is a physician at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, a Diplomate of the American Board of Anesthesiology, and a Fellow of the American Society of Anesthesiologists. He graduated from the Yale University School of Medicine and completed his residency at Stanford and Harvard Universities (Massachusetts General Hospital). He has served on the faculties of the UCLA School of Medicine, Charles Drew University, and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. He has appeared on Good Morning America and NBC Nightly News, as well as Air Talk with Larry Mantle and The Dennis Prager Show. Summary In this episode, Dr. Andrew Kadar shares his unexpected journey through a significant health challenge, exploring themes of denial, vulnerability, and the importance of communication. He reflects on the lessons learned from his experience as both a doctor and a patient, emphasizing the need for connection, appreciation, and a positive impact on others. The discussion also touches on the role of caregivers and the shift in perspective regarding life and mortality. Takeaways Denial can hinder our ability to face health challenges. Vulnerability fosters connection and understanding. Communication is key in patient-caregiver relationships. Health challenges can lead to personal growth and self-discovery. It's important to appreciate the support of caregivers. Life's unexpected events can be viewed as opportunities. A positive mindset can influence recovery and resilience. We should strive to make a positive impact on others. Understanding mortality can shift our life priorities. Everything in life eventually needs to be shared and distributed.

I adore music. It moves me like few other things in existence. There was a time when my family and I watched America's Got Talent, and it was the breakout singers that we most enjoyed. You may remember Mandy Harvey. Mandy was in college pursuing a vocal music education degree, then lost her hearing. She left the program to pursue other career options, but later returned to music. She ultimately landed on America's Got Talent where she reached the finals and was Simon Cowell's Golden Buzzer Winner. From there, CNN showcased Mandy on their Great Big Story and captured over 10 million hits on social media, Burt's Bees signed her up for their “Remarkable Women” campaign, NBC Nightly News profiled her, and she went on to perform at the world's most prestigious clubs, concert stages and festivals. Mandy then wrote a book titled, Sensing The Rhythm, Finding My Voice In a World Without Sound. The book landed on my desk and in it I found a message of helping others to realize their dreams and pursue their hopes, no matter what. I invited Mandy onto my show and following I bring back an incredibly inspiring conversation about pursuing your dreams, in spite of seemingly insurmountable obstacles, like being a singer…who goes deaf.

Highly processed vegetable oils, derived from seeds and beans, have become a dominant part of modern diets despite significant health concerns. Historical biases in nutrition science, influenced by the vegetable oil industry, have promoted these oils despite evidence from controlled studies showing negative health outcomes. These oils are unstable, prone to oxidation, and can create toxic byproducts, particularly when exposed to heat, contributing to inflammation and chronic diseases. Although they can lower LDL cholesterol, studies have shown that this reduction does not necessarily improve heart health and may increase risks for other conditions like cancer. In contrast, traditional fats like extra virgin olive oil and omega-3-rich foods offer more stability and health benefits, emphasizing the need for a balanced, minimally processed approach to dietary fats. In this episode, I talk with Nina Teicholz and Max Lugavere to explore the health impacts of different types of fats and oils, debunking misconceptions around cooking with extra virgin olive oil and emphasizing the dangers of industrial vegetable oils. Nina Teicholz is a science journalist and author of the New York Times bestseller, The Big Fat Surprise, which upended the conventional wisdom on dietary fat—especially saturated fat—and spurred a new conversation about whether these fats in fact cause heart disease. She is also the founder of the Nutrition Coalition, a non-profit working to ensure that government nutrition policy is transparent and evidence-based—work for which she's been asked to testify before the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Canadian Senate. Max Lugavere is a health and science journalist and the author of the New York Times best-seller Genius Foods: Become Smarter, Happier, and More Productive While Protecting Your Brain for Life, now published in 10 languages around the globe. His sophomore book, also a best-seller, is called The Genius Life: Heal Your Mind, Strengthen Your Body, and Become Extraordinary and latest book Genius Kitchen. Max is the host of a #1 iTunes health and wellness podcast, called The Genius Life. Max appears regularly on The Dr. Oz Show, The Rachael Ray Show, and The Doctors. He has contributed to Medscape, Vice, Fast Company, CNN, and The Daily Beast, has been featured on NBC Nightly News, The Today Show, and in The New York Times and People Magazine. He is an internationally sought-after speaker and has given talks at South by Southwest, the New York Academy of Sciences, the Biohacker Summit in Stockholm, Sweden, and many others.

Science can change your life. The more we study what makes people develop, grow, learn, and flourish—the more we see how the practical application of scientific findings can help us transform our life and experience—into a life of value, meaning, purpose and true thriving.Yale psychologist Laurie Santos has spent her career investigating the human brain and how it thrives. From her popular Yale course to her podcast, The Happiness Lab, she's communicating actionable and hopeful lessons for how to build lasting habits, cultivate self-compassion, manage complex emotions, and realign our lives toward meaningful happiness.In this conversation with Dr. Laurie Santos, we discuss:How the mental health crisis affecting young people changed her, and how she teaches psychologyHow our brains lie to usThe role of positive and negative emotions in a good lifeHow feeling good can lead to doing goodThe psychological and relational benefits of faith and spiritualityAnd she offers practical insights, science-backed guidance, and powerful exercises for managing misalignment and difficult emotions.Laurie Santos on how to activate psychological science for more happiness and meaning (from the episode):“Some of these factors that we know scientifically do work. From simple behavior changes like being more social, doing nice things for others, just healthy habits  like sleeping and moving your body,  to mindset shifts, to becoming a little bit more present, to becoming more other oriented, to becoming more grateful, more self-compassionate, and so on.There are shifts that we can make that can have a huge effect on how we actually interact in the world.We need to understand that we're not perfect, we're just human. And we will mess up a little bit too. But it's really the journey that   matters.”About Laurie SantosDr. Laurie Santos is the Chandrika and Ranjan Tandon Professor of Psychology at Yale University and host of The Happiness Lab podcast. Dr. Santos is an expert on the science of happiness.

Trisha Lord St George, entertainer and former hospice/palliative care music therapy volunteer at a major healthcare organization. Bio - I am still ‘Living the Dream With My Best Life!' Trisha Lord St. George is an entertainer who has used her talents to assist people in hospice care as they prepare to pass away. Trisha volunteered at a major healthcare organization for 20 years, playing and singing music to and with dying patients to ease their minds and anxieties. After those 20 years of dedicated service, the organization hired Trisha officially into their music therapy program, where she worked dutifully to support her patients for 6 years. Trisha was released in June, 2024 from her position due to   a restructuring of the music program. However, when life handed Trisha lemons, she made plenty of fresh lemon-aid; along with lemon cookies, lemon pies and lemon cakes. This meant it was time for her to follow her heart to pursue those dreams of acting and entertaining with all fears aside. Along with sharing the gift of song and gratitude, nothing was going to stop Trisha's sparkle- her joy! Despite the changes, Trisha says,  "Life is great as I again make even better lemonade than before!"
