In this episode of The World of Wishes Podcast we meet wish alumnus Lauren Potter. A top junior Olympian at 13, Lauren was a relentless competitor—until a rare, unnamed autoimmune disease left her gasping for breath. After months in Boston Children's Hospital and six rounds of chemotherapy, she chose hope over fear. When her doctor recommended Make‑A‑Wish, Lauren celebrated her recovery with an active, adventurous wish: surfing her first wave on Waikiki Beach, ATV trails through Kualoa Ranch, ziplining across thousand‑foot valleys, and a sunset on the North Shore that felt like peace. Years later, she committed to Yale volleyball, mentored other pulmonary patients, thanked her wish sponsors from the stage, and found her career intersecting with our Miami home—the Finker‑Frenkel Wish House—bringing her journey full circle. In this episode, Lauren shares how positivity, family, and a single wish can fuel a decade of momentum—and why she proudly wears “Wish Kid” as a badge of honor.

This week's theme: Accessibility & Inclusion In this episode of From Fear to Fire, host Heather Hansen O'Neill speaks with disability advocate, educator, and author Jenna Udenberg about lived experience, leadership, and the true meaning of Accessibility and Inclusion. Jenna shares her journey as a lifelong wheelchair user and founder of the nonprofit Above and Beyond With U, emphasizing that accessibility is not about checking boxes or meeting minimum ADA requirements. Instead, it requires involving disabled people from the very beginning so spaces, systems, and decisions reflect real human needs rather than assumptions. Jenna also reframes disability as a neutral part of the human experience, explaining that barriers are most often created by environments and attitudes, not bodies. She encourages organizations and leaders to move beyond good intentions and take intentional action rooted in Accessibility and Inclusion across workplaces, education, and community spaces. Her message is clear: when people feel welcomed, safe, and valued, everyone benefits, and that awareness is what helps individuals and organizations truly move from fear to fire. From Fear to Fire: Secrets to Overcome Fear, Embrace Your Gifts and Achieve Success This is the place where real people share real challenges. Where you can find a common bond and uncommon wisdom through their stories. Use tips from the breakthroughs of others to jump-start your success. Speaker, author, adventurer, and host Heather Hansen O'Neill takes you on the journey from fear to fire. Today, we explore how true accessibility and inclusion are achieved by centering disabled voices, challenging assumptions, and intentionally designing spaces, systems, and cultures where everyone can belong and thrive.

For some, growing up on Lake Superior carves a deep connection to place, and no matter where life leads, the pull to return to that rugged shoreline never leaves. Patti Baraks knows too well that hold Superior creates. She grew up in Superior, Wisconsin, and although she has lived, worked and raised a family in Texas, she admits, her internal compass always points north toward that mighty lake. As an early childhood education teacher with a passion for poetry, she used that lure to write a children's book, “A is for Agates, A Lake Superior Alphabet Book”.In this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast, Walt Lindala and Frida Waara talk with Patti not only about her time in Wisconsin, but also about the motivation and process of producing a children's book.If you'd like a copy, or need a perfect Lake Superior–themed Christmas gift, she shares that you can find the book at independent bookstores and libraries around the Lake Superior region. It's also available online at Itasca Books:https://itascabooks.com/products/a-is-for-agates-a-lake-superior-alphabet-book-1Key takeawaysPatti's Deep Connection to Lake Superior Has Never FadedPatti Baraks grew up in Superior, Wisconsin, a city she describes as “one of the greatest port cities on Lake Superior.” She explains that Lake Superior shaped every part of daily life — the economy, recreation, and weather — and says the lake “has always had a hold over me that I can't quite explain.” Even after moving to Texas, she shares that her “internal compass points north” and draws her back every summer.The Passing of Her Father Motivated Her to Finally Write a BookPatti says she had “always wanted to be a writer,” but it wasn't until her father passed away about a year and a half before the interview that she decided she didn't want “a cloud of regret” about never pursuing that dream. This loss gave her the push to “get out of [her] comfort zone and just go for it.”Collaboration With Illustrator Lisa Perrin Cosmo Was Central to the Book's SuccessPatti selected illustrator Lisa Perrin Cosmo after seeing an agate painting in her portfolio and feeling immediately drawn to her work. She says Lisa is “local to the North Shore,” “really knows the lake,” and seemed able to “read my mind” when creating the illustrations. Patti calls her artwork “breathtaking” and says the illustrator “paints the best moose.”Patti Believes Nature-Based Literature Helps Children Explore and LearnAs a former teacher, Patti says that nature-based books encourage kids to get outside, reduce stress, and learn through observation. She describes the outdoors as “the original classroom,” where children discover things independently, ask questions, and engage their natural curiosity.Connect With Us:Lake Superior Podcast Page – https://nplsf.org/podcastFacebook – https://www.facebook.com/NationalParksOfLakeSuperiorFoundationSponsors:Cafe Imports – Minneapolis-based importers of specialty green coffees since 1993, focused on sustainability.

Ready to learn the history, philosophy, and practice of an experienced professional in the test prep industry? MEET OUR GUEST Meet Roman Marchenko. After 15 years of teaching high school social studies in public and private settings, Roman transitioned to full-time test preparation. He's always been a big fan of standardized tests, and a large part of his practice is getting students to evolve their mindset about the ACT and SAT. So many view these tests as a necessary evil, at best, but that serves as an obstacle to performance! Roman's favorite part of the job is getting to glimpse the lives of his students as he looks for unique ways to help them. He lives and works in the North Shore of Chicago and has one employee, a Bernedoodle named Millie who greets the students and acts as one of the least qualified security guards in the world. When he's not tutoring, he's trying his best to steer his four boys through school, safeguard a modest Lego collection, and indulge in a love of EDM music. Find Roman at yourexaminedlife@gmail.com.

On this episode, host Joanna Roche of the Maria Mitchell Association speaks with Kim Schulam, Stranding Coordinator for the Marine Mammal Alliance Nantucket, about the dead sperm whale that washed ashore on Nantucket's North Shore on November 18. Kim walks us through the response process, including how her team conducted tests and examinations to learn more about the whale and what may have caused its death.

Growing up on Sydney’s lower North Shore and marrying the girl across the road to learning the mechanical skills that would serve him so well in his career. Success at club level and how those fundamentals became a cornerstone of his achievements at the highest level. From Hill Climbs to Round Australia and forging a reputation that meant he was good in just about any discipline. There are memories of race tracks that are long gone and beating some international stars of the day on the way to wins at Bathurst, the Australian Rally Championship and more. Recorded on the Monday after an epic Bathurst 1000 Rusty sat in the lounge at the Hall of Famer’s house and the pair just chatted. We don’t get to every car or race but you’ll enjoy the relaxed convo. The idea of finally getting Colin on Rusty’s Garage came about following the release of his fantastic new book ‘Full Tilt’ written by respected author and broadcaster John Smailes who joined us for a Feature Episode recently too.

What does it take to build your dreams when the path isn't easy? In today's episode, I sit down with Sarai Martinez—a rising voice in beauty and TV—to chat about perseverance, passion, and what it really takes to build something meaningful as a woman of color. Sarai shares her natural love for self-care and fashion, how those early interests evolved into public-facing work, and how she's navigating the challenge-heavy path of entrepreneurship with power and grace. We dig into identity, confidence, and what happens when you don't wait until you "have it all figured out" to go for it. In this conversation, we cover: → What it means to truly persevere as a woman of color → The link between beauty, confidence, and performance → Sarai's latest work in television segments and what lights her up → Her long-term vision for building a brand empire—and involving her kids along the way → And yes, some beauty truths, like why it's never a good idea to cut your own bangs Other Episodes You Might Love → Episode 153: Loneliness: The Truth About Entrepreneurship That No One Tells You About https://sarahwalton.com/loneliness-entrepreneurship/ → Episode 50: The Power of Grit (and YES!

On this episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna brings you another story from our special former participant series where she extends the opportunity for former participants to share their journey with others. Today's former participant is Conor Gallagher Gray. Conor grew up on Chicago's North Shore with every advantage and a clear path laid out for him—until addiction, stigma, and a collapsing sense of identity sent his life on a drastically different trajectory. After multiple treatment stays, arrests, a suicide attempt, and years of relapse and rebuilding, Conor eventually found long-term sobriety and a renewed sense of purpose. His journey took him from high academic and athletic expectations to living in a basement storage room, navigating psych episodes, and surviving several near-fatal moments that forced him to confront the reality of where his life was headed. Today, Conor co-owns men's sober living homes in Los Angeles, where he channels his experience into community, accountability, and giving others the support he once needed. This conversation is honest, intense, and a powerful reminder that healing is rarely linear and purpose can grow from the most unexpected places.NOTE: The podcasts in this series can include sensitive subjects such as suicide, self-harm, substance abuse, hospitalizations, psychotic episodes, and other traumatic experiences which include parts of the treatment journey. No topic is off limits and not all stories are positive but they are real, raw, and transparent.**Listener discretion is advised**Conor's Resources: Eric's House RecoveryMenninger ClinicConnect with Joanna Lilley Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #SoberLiving #SoberMovement #SobrietyJourney #SobrietyIsBeautiful #AddictionTreatment #EricsHouseRecovery
