✨ Feeling so grateful to have joined the 'Women Who Write' podcast with the incredible Gila and Selma this Christmas!

In an intimate conversation between poets Gila and Radhaa, poetry transforms into a living, breathing entity—unpolished, unscripted, and unapologetically real. It's a dialogue as raw as it is refined, exploring the duality of human emotion and the alchemy of turning darkness into art. Amid this exchange, they reveal what it means to write from the soul's depth, where vulnerability meets power and light collides with shadow. The Art of Darkness For Radhaa, poetry is a tempest—wild, untamed, and cathartic. She gravitates toward darker themes, not as a reflection of despair but as a reclamation of self. “Dark poetry is my liberation,” Radhaa shares. “It's not about my state of mind but about giving voice to emotions we're often told to bury. Writing these pieces feels like exhaling after holding my breath for too long.” Gila finds resonance in Radhaa's words. To her, these dark verses serve as a salve for the unspoken aches of humanity. “Acknowledging life's shadows isn't just brave—it's healing. In sharing them, we create a space for others to see themselves reflected and understood.” Both poets lean into the idea that life isn't confined to the binaries of light and dark. Rather, it's a spectrum, as fluid as the tides and as layered as a vintage silk gown. “Dark poetry allows me to explore the undercurrents of existence,” Radhaa muses. “It's an antidote to the veneer of perfection we often encounter. Life's beauty lies in its imperfections—in the cracks where light gets in.” Gila nods in agreement, adding, “As poets, we navigate the depths and surface. That's our gift: to show that sorrow and joy are two sides of the same coin. In their union, we find authenticity.” The Danger of Labels The dialogue turns to societal labels—how they tether artists to limiting definitions. Radhaa reflects on the stigma often associated with dark themes. “There's this assumption that writing darker poetry means you're negative or depressed,” she says. “But for me, it's the opposite. Writing is my joy, my release.” Gila champions the freedom to create beyond judgment, stating, “Poetry thrives in the absence of boundaries. When we release the fear of how others perceive us, we tap into its transformative essence.” Love, Light, and What Lies Beneath Radhaa critiques the ubiquitous “love and light” mantra in some spiritual spaces, describing it as “beautiful, but sometimes shallow.” “It feels hollow when it ignores the messiness of what it means to be human,” she says. “I want depth. I want truth. Even when it's uncomfortable.” Gila, having walked similar paths, echoes this sentiment. “Love and light are essential, but they need their counterpart—struggle and shadow. Together, they create wholeness. That's where real healing happens.” The Healing Power of Words Poetry, for both women, is more than art—it's a sanctuary. Writing becomes an act of survival, clarity, and connection. “When I write, I feel the chaos quiet,” Radhaa reflects. “Poetry is where I go to make sense of what's inside.” Gila brings up William Blake's A Poison Tree, marveling at its enduring relevance. “It's a stark reminder of what happens when we suppress emotion,” she says. “Blake's words transcend generations because they speak to a universal truth.” An Invitation to the Edge In the end, this conversation is a call to embrace poetry's duality. To dare to write from places of joy and sorrow, light and dark. “Poetry,” Radhaa concludes, “isn't about perfection. It's about truth—raw and unfiltered. It's where we find the courage to be fully seen.” Gila smiles, adding, “In writing, we honor every facet of ourselves. The light, the shadow, and everything in between. That's what makes us human.” With every stanza, Gila and Radhaa weave a tapestry of shared humanity, reminding us that the beauty of life lies in its contrasts. In poetry, they find connection, healing, and a celebration of the stories that make us whole. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/gila-nehemia/support

Dee Wallace Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson Dee Wallace has been a literal life changer for me, let alone a game changer in the business of show and as a self-creation healer. We signed up for a session as soon as I got off the interweb tonight. I've been employing Dee's techniques since first we met at Women Who Write in 2011. I got refresher courses every time she came back to the living room and the numerous times she's guested on this show in its various incarnations. I realized today, looking back and listening to a couple of our past shows, that I've manifested almost everything I was working on with her guidance. A couple of desires remain, so tomorrow I'll resume in earnest the practice I've been somewhat lax with since I got happy. With close to 300 screen credits to her name, including The Howling, Cujo, 10, and most notably, her starring role in E.T. (I can't NOT watch it when I see it's on), Dee was more recently featured in the remake of Rob Zombie's Halloween, has made recurring appearances on 9 -1 -1, has 11 projects in post as I write, and another two dozen films and TV roles since last we met three years ago. Dee is indefatigable! Her countless television credits include starring roles in over twenty Movies of the Week and four hit television series, including Sons and Daughters, Grey's Anatomy, Cold Case, Without a Trace, Ghost Whisperer, a recurring role on My Name is Earl, and the Amazon young adult hit, Just Add Magic. We talked about pretty much none of them— other than a great story about E.T… Steven Speilberg, and Dee, using her tools and being in the moment. There's also a great story about Cujo, Dee's favorite role, and the film we're gonna hunker down with tonight, armed with a little new knowledge. What we did focus on was how to manifest what we want. Dee helped a listener get clarity to move forward, once again helped direct me, offered hope on the impending election, and how each of us can strengthen the collective consciousness on a daily basis. The hour is ripe with gems of practical application. Dee shared how it's worked and continues to, in her life… how the tools graced her with motherhood and now a beloved grandchild, and why she's as busy as ever - not at all slowed by her age, or the state of the business. Dee conducts a live (call-in) internet radio show and offers monthly webinars on a variety of self-creation subjects. She invites us to join her with our questions. She also conducts private sessions from her home by phone. For more info: https://iamdeewallace.com We're in! I'll be doing my Dee routine daily and shall report back with my progress. Suffice it to say my life is a world of better than it was when I met her. And, yeah, I'm saying she helped me manifest it. My gratitude abounds!

Writing is a craft—both art and discipline. It is a unique expression of your thoughts, emotions, hopes, dreams, and core beliefs about life, relationships, and your most important relationship, the one you have with God. Join us for "Women Who Write" part two with Lee Ann Alexander. Lee Ann is the UPCI associate editor-in-chief and senior vice president of Pentecostal Resources Group. She has authored four books and hosts the Wholyness Podcast. She is a UPCI ordained minister and serves as discipleship director at her local church, The Sanctuary, in Hazelwood, Missouri. RESOURCES: Lee Ann Alexander reminds us that reading other writers' stories can be a great source of encouragement and direction.

Rumer Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson It had been too long, too many years, since I'd last seen Rumer, whom I first heard about through our mutual friend, the late, J Marshall Craig a decade ago. As soon as I had my first taste I became obsessed with her and made it my quest to have her sing in my living room. I saw her perform at a benefit concert for Jeff Jones about 10 yrs ago and vowed to make it happen. A great friend and collaborator of the late, beloved PF Sloan, Rumer oft lived across the country and abroad, I met her at last at PF's memorial 9 yrs ago, just after he'd performed in the living room. Rumer and I became fast friends and I've listened to her in heavy rotation almost non-stop since. We came thisclose to her appearing at Women Who Write in 2016, and it's taken all this time to get her on Game Changers… good things come to those who wait. We went deep today, fittingly on 9/11. First, into Rumer's past. Her humble beginnings, at the time, one of seven siblings. A secret revealed long ago, which led to unwarranted shame, and an ongoing almost unfathomable generosity. The origin of her name, another sweet, and loving familiar story. Adele, the 16-year-old down the street who had the record deal that Sara sought, La Honda, her early band, the years, the hard work, finding the right producer and manager, and grit determination that finally paid off. Her platinum debut album, Seasons of My Soul, which garnered her numerous Brit and MOJO Award nominations and a couple of wins. Performing in the UK with Dionne Warwick and meeting her musical director, Rob Shirakbari, who would become Rumer's partner in music and life, Elton John became enamored of her talent, an oh-so-sweet story there! Touring brought her to the United States, where she began a long ongoing collaborative relationship with Burt Bacharach, to the White House to sing for the Obamas, to Jimmy Webb to sing his P.F. Sloan, and ultimately to sing it with the man himself, so important to this day as we ready to vote, to Daryl Hall and his Daryl House, great story about that, an email from Richard Carpenter, after being likened to his sister for years, a series of albums, motherhood, moving to Arkansas, a visit back to LA, where last we met, first giggling like girls in my car and then at a party at Stephen Bishop's, her Nashville Tears, then back to the UK. where she, husband Rob, and son, Denny, currently reside, and where Rumer will be performing her now Triple Platinum, Seasons of My Soul, to a Sold Out crowd, and soon, a new album, with her 9/11 song, will drop. Rumer shared her September 11th story, and I, mine. I'm so grateful to have had this reunion with Rumer, a treasured friend, and an artist I adore to my core, who gives me goosebumps every time I hear her sing. Her Slow remains in my top 5 of all time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvYUfwMBCrU. Her duet of I Can't Go For That with Daryl Hall is unforgettable https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rzr6mvDar30 as is her cover of his Sara Smile - that her first given name is Sara, just makes it that much sweeter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wh7y--Mc7kk. Rumer has the voice of an angel and the soul of one.

Do you want to write a book and need help figuring out where to start?In this episode, I'm talking with four women from different backgrounds, missions, walks of life, and stages in their writing journey who realized their message was worth sharing. Regan Macaulay, Dr. Stacey Francis, Dr. Brooke Scheller, and Gillian Wagner discuss their methods, challenges, and lessons learned in writing and publishing their books.

As a child, I was abandoned by my mother. This left an indelible mark on my worthiness: if my own mother didn't want me, what could I be worth? I lived with this subconscious belief clouding my life's experiences for decades. Not that you would have known any of this if you'd met me back then. I hustled, doing great work behind the scenes, and made my bosses and colleagues look wonderful—as long as they didn't notice me, I was happy. Or at least happy enough. It was in this energy and with these beliefs that I attracted a husband who abused me. One day, I found myself behind three locked doors and on the telephone with 911 as my then-husband crashed around downstairs, tossing furniture and throwing crockery. How had I gotten to this point? I didn't know, but I vowed at that moment to escape—and finally dug into the trauma that had brought me to that low point. As I wrote and spoke about my trauma, something incredible happened:  extreme healing. Leaning into the worst moments of my life allowed me to release the shame and recognize how resilient and courageous I had been. I claimed my voice and knew that my mission was to help other women find their voices. I began teaching others to write about their worst moments, heal through the process, and claim their brilliance.  That's also why I started Highlander Press, a publishing house dedicated to elevating women authors.  Time and again, I witnessed women healing by telling their stories—and this transformed their lives. By sharing stories on this podcast, together we'll inspire other women to see how incredible and brave they are—and how we can light the way for other women to see the same. I am your host, Deborah Kevin, and this is the STORYTELLHER podcast.  Connect with Deborah Kevin:Website: www.deborahkevin.comInstagram: www.instagram.com/debbykevinwriterLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deborah-kevin/ Check out Highlander Press:Website: www.highlanderpressbooks.comTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@highlanderpressInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/highlanderpressFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/highlanderpress

Lori Lieberman Live on Game Changers with Vicki Abelson Being with Lori Lieberman, the very first musical guest at Women Who Write, and the only artist to perform at every WWW location over the past decade-plus is like going home. Five years since our last midday soiree, it was so wonderful to reconnect and catch up. We got the unabridged Killing Me Softly scoop, from its inception with Lori's pen on a napkin at a Don McLean show, to it getting fleshed out with her managers, Charles Fox and Norman Gimbel, her recording it, getting airplay, Roberta hearing it, Lori making the rounds credited as a collaborator, then written off, and finally getting vindicated only recently. There's lots more to the story, all fascinating and aided greatly by its mostly happyish ending. Lori's first five albums and self-imposed hiatus that followed. Motherhood, Joe Cali, falling in love and finding her way back to the music. 20 albums later, her latest releases, The Girl and The Cat, her most emotional and personal work to date, Lori told us why, and Truly, a departure for Lori, a deep dive into the American Songbook, with a unique revisit of the before mentioned Killing Me Softly. You haven't heard it until you've heard Lori sing it. And sing it and kill us she did! She also treated us to her track, Switzerland, although Zoom prematurely derailed it. Lori's readying for her 3rd Carnegie Hall concert, on December 10th, at 2 pm. In the tri-state area, or gonna be? It's a must!

Korel Tunador Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson It was such a treat to sit down again with treasured friend, Korel Tunador. I've sure missed him. Crazy talented and oh, so fun, quintuple threat––guitar, keyboards, sax, accordion, and vocals, Korel, who's been playing with Rob Thomas the last many years, spent a dozen + with the Goo Goo Dolls, toured with Katy Perry, and Jada Pinkett Smith's Wicked Wisdom, and prepped to tour with Hanson, filled us in on how he got each, how the experiences played out, from never making it on the road (the latter) to the Ted Lasso almost religious experience he's currently living with Rob Thomas and company. Now focused on vocal coaching - pros to unknowns, Korel took us on his journey from piano at 5 in Pittsburgh to stadiums and TV. Explaining how anyone can sing… on key, and learn to harmonize… it's all about patience and perseverance. Even me? I may have to take him up on that. Korel's primary instrument of choice is his voice. As if to punctuate the point, he treated us to his new, emotive, Drain on Me, the also new, You Belong to Me, not sad he said, yet it also brought a tear… and Korel's closer, his classic, The Town of Artichoke, which left me giddy, and flying high, as it always does. One of the sweetest humans on the planet, Korel's played my living room thrice, and was part of the Women Who Write extravaganza produced by Mike Nesmith at the Henry Miller Library in Big Sur. I'll be forever grateful to Zoe Moon for connecting us, and for Zooms like these that reconnect us even when he's busy as hell, and miles away. If you're a pro on the road looking to up your vocal game, or a layman like me, considering how lovely it would be to shock your loved ones and whip out an unexpected harmony or two, Korel can be reached @koreltunador.com - few funner to hang with for any reason.

Eric McCormack Live on Game Changers with Vicki Abelson Will and Vicki. The virgin Walden/Abelson voyage. If you're gonna break the almost 3 yrs to the day pandemic Zoom streak, and do a first Live in person from the new digs, how better than with handsome, charming, fabulous, Emmy, SAG, and GLAAD Award Winning, Eric McCormack? Couldn't be done. If you're gonna look into a set of eyeballs, share rarefied air, lotsa laughs, and some snacks, well…it doesn't get better than this. Thank you, Loren Gold for putting up with my incessant begging and pleading and making this happen. Exceeding all expectations, Eric was easy, expressive, talented (he did accents, impressions, and sang a teeny bit), and crazy fun. Stories, stories, and more stories, one better than the last. When we wrapped and Eric's fab assistant, Michelle Loparo, said some of said stories were new to her, well, score! From his early days in Toronto, school plays with David Furnish, no, really! Day jobs at Baskin Robbins, and a gas station, his father's secret revealed, childhood heroes and how one blew Eric's adult mind, five years doing Shakespeare in rep, breaking into TV, Lonesome Dove, meeting his unlikely perfect partner, manifesting his highest dream––auditioning for James Burrows, landing the part that would change his life, Will and Grace fun, bringing childhood imagings to life… Freddy Mercury, Barry Manilow, Elton John, starring on Broadway in The Music Man, turning serious… Travelers (Netflix- 3 seasons to binge), the upcoming, Departure (Peacock), Slasher (AMC), The Other Black Girl (Hulu) the acclaimed Drinkwater (Canadian Prime, soon here), plus another Broadway turn, The Cottage, directed by his great friend, Game Changers alum, Jason Alexander, coming this summer, and, as if that t'weren't enough, two podcasts soon to drop, one, Eating Out, with his pal, Steven Weber, a Women Who Write alum, and Just Jack and Will with his great friend Sean Hayes. I'm exhausted typing it, let alone this indefatigable man living it all, no doubt, brilliantly. There are more stories, unmentioned. Tasty treats reenacted to delight. I'm still basking in the glow, wondering how I'll ever Zoom again. Eric McCormack has ruined me for pandemic worry. What a way to break free. Whee!

What a glorious reunion with the brilliantly talented prolific songstress, Harriet Schock, who wrote the Grammy-nominated #1 hit, Ain't No Way To Treat A Lady, and her stunningly talented, vocal accomplice, Andrea Ross-Green. It was thrilling to hear them again in perfect harmony with new songs from Harriet's upcoming album, Paintings (the title track she treated us to is an absolute killer), as well as the mash-up of her Ain't No Way to Treat A Lady and One Time Lover. We were also treated to my request, Over and Over, one of my all-time favorite Schock classics, and My Now, a new tune from her soon to drop, Paintings. We went back to Dallas, her musician doctor father who encouraged her with all his heart, coming to LA, the heartbreak that inspired that #1 hit, being covered by The Partridge Family, Helen Reddy, Manfred Man, Johnny Mathis, Smokey Robinson, Roberta Flack, to name just some, her films with Henry Jaglom, ongoing songwriting workshops which attract the creme de l creme in LA and now with Zoom, from around the world. Harriet's system she maintains is full-proof. Her scores of talented, thriving students offer proof. Come in with nothing, leave with a song. A well-crafted, good one at that, whether you're a seasoned pro or a beginner. Interested? Contact Harriet at HarrietSchock@gmail.com In addition to Harriet's new album, there's an upcoming show at The Coffee Gallery, A Lifetime Achievement Award, Gary Lynn Floyd's new album, Present Schock: The Songs of Harriet Schock, and Tom Solari's documentary, Hollywood Town, The Harriet Schock Story. I'm exhausted typing it. I adore this woman and her music. Harriet and I appeared in Henry's The M Word and spent countless Tuesdays over the last decade sharing creative adventures and miracles at Women Who Write, where Harriet also performed at least a half dozen times. It was fantastic to catch up with this treasured friend and be treated to her magnificent music. Ditto Andrea!

Radhaa Nilia and Gila Nehemia are hosting a 3-month container focusing on the Dark Side of the Womb: Integrating the Shadows into the Christed Sophianic Light. Register here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/dark-side-of-womb-integrating-the-shadow-into-christed-sophianic-light-tickets-415476610727 Radhaa Nilia and I discuss the energetic significance of the New Moon in Scorpio and the Solar Eclipse on our lives and the collective. We focus on opening up our Sophianic light together as we dive deep into the dark spaces of our wombs. This energy is all about resetting and beginning anew. We know many traditional structures are crumbling, including the need for obligation over self. Join us if you are ready to receive support, receive your Sophia Codes, and embody more of yourself. Here you will find the tools for personal healing, ascension, sisterhood, and spiritual support. Join us for the Sophianic Womb Codes Healing journey as we travel through our shadows to access our most profound Sophianic Wisdom. This is a place you can come and peel away your layers, recreate yourself, and evolve into your true Pillar of Light! Each month focuses on a specific shadow aspect of the WOMB - where we hold our deepest fears, pain, and secrets- that takes over when we don't address these shadowy issues. Many woundings of the womb are not necessarily from us - generational, abuse, or the distortion of collective consciousness. We elevate you to your highest light through healing and transmissions in a sacred container for over four months. We assist you in clearing and releasing traumas you have experienced. Whether you seek healing from core wounds or desire to activate your spiritual gifts, free yourself from corrupted codes, or release from distorted relationships and interfacing, my deepest desire is to support you in fully activating your Sophianic Womb Codes with full sovereignty. We are blessed by your presence here, and I cannot wait to see how we can rise even higher together! Our monthly group coaching sessions are a place where you can voice your triggers and concerns and elevate your beliefs about yourself. We have created this program to run through the holidays as we guide you into the New Year. Yes! We will be ringing in the New Year together in sisterhood! You can be heard, witnessed, and honored as you transmute old unwanted baggage that needs to be released. With your soul sisters in real-time, the energetic vibration of healing will be in high gear. Over the holidays, we are faced with outdated and crumbling traditions. This is the time for you to recreate your reality. Join us and be ready to receive your Sophianic Codes. Embody more of yourself.

Can you top this? Yes, we can. How the hell is it possible that this sitdown with The Sopranos Richie Aprile aka David Proval, will go down as one of the most entertaining shows yet? It shall. WOW. What fun. Great stories. Crazy coincidences. More great stories. As if it wasn't enough that David's mother and I share the same family name, and she has the same country of origin as my grandma with the same name, we're both New Yorkers, David went to Yeshiva, my father taught Yeshiva, our paths crossing about a decade ago while filming Henry Jaglom's The M Word with Michael Imperioli, post their work in The Sopranos, pre ours at Women Who Write and Game Changers. Thanks to the suggestion of my new good friend, Mark Metcalf, who also middled last week's stupendous sitdown with Tim Matheson, I know David's extensive body of stellar work, Mark added technicolor. I jumped at his suggestion to invite David. My gratitude to both of them is boundless. What fun! I know I said it before, but it bears repeating. From his grandma and the Yiddish theatre, school plays, Uta Hagen, to Scorcese and Mean Streets, thanks to his friend, Jon Voight, how he got it—DeNiro, Keitel, Pavlo Hummel, again thanks to Voight, which led to Nunzio, a hysterical story about filming with Jack Gilford, Elliot Gould, and James Caan, which included more great stories about James, to the other James… Gandolfini. David's audition(s) for The Sopranos, so much great stuff there, moving from mobster Richie Aprile to a Rabbi in The West Wing, Teri Garr, Richard Dreyfus, coaching Eddie Murphy, an insanely great story there, a Drama Desk Nomination, Innocent Blood, John Landis, Don Rickels, hysterical stuff there, meeting Sinatra, and sitting down with him, a fan, wow, Everybody Loves Raymond, Italy, and his personal discontent… all straight talk, with loads of laughter and a few tears. I loved every single second, especially when his wife of 46 years, Cheryl, joined the conversation from the other room. Forget cowbell. More David Proval!

Calling all writers, healers, channelers, and anyone with a womb or ( womb space/ hara line). All parts of our body are sacred. Our wombs are portals from which a new world is born. They are places of Alchemy. Places where power is stored. But there are some places we've been told to ignore. Not anymore. This workshop helps you connect with your deep untethered RAGE to tap into your creativity, wisdom, and limitless power. Join us for a sacred ceremony honoring your Womb Rage in all its glory! We will alchemize and co-create through writing, healing, sacred sisterhood, and journeying together. Womb Rage is a powerful journey of unleashing your Inner Oracle. Wombs are Oracles. They will always tell you the truth and show you where the deepest healing lives. Now more than ever, we are faced with unprecedented times, and it is important to experience deeper embodiment. Our Womb is asking us to connect to it for many reasons. We have forgotten our way, and the Sovereign Womb is very much needed within our field if we start to bridge a new way of being on this Earth. Womb Rage will restore the natural balance of your creative center. Join your sacred sisters in gathering resources to help you access the power of your Womb. Womb Rage is not just another workshop. It's a Portal to your Deepest Healing. Womb Rage is an ode to the Womb. Many women still carry the Pain and resentment of their mothers, grandmothers, and female ancestors. Some feel the wounds of this past life or traumatic experiences in this lifetime that block their joy and happiness and prevent them from connecting with their feminine power. Let us heal our Womb; let's heal our mother's, sister's, and daughter's wombs. And in this way, bring healing to our Mother Earth. Early Bird Ticket HERE: https://bit.ly/3zFpCKI “These are burning times. And they call for Burning Women. Women embodied their passion. Women feeling in their bodies. Creative women. Courageous women. Women who have learned to run on a different power source to the world which is falling into flames around her. She has already disentangled herself from the wreckage of the patriarchal culture, so she will not be dazed, confused and disorientated by the systemic changes happening around her. Centered within herself, receptive to the Earth beyond her, she knows how to cultivate from the ashes, she knows how to find the embers to fuel the new fire. Burning Women arise. Our time is now. Our time has come.” - Lucy H.

Tom Bergeron Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson There's nothing like sitting down with an adored friend who's made his mark being in the moment, Live, without a net. Emmy-winner, Tom Bergeron, is my kinda guest. Whip-smart, emotionally intelligent and evolved, hysterically funny, a generous to a fault humanitarian, and oh, so laid back, and easy (don't tell Lois). This isn't our first rodeo - it just keeps getting funner. We got the Tom's eye view of Dancing With The Stars, from his hiring to his firing (of his own creation- scooped to us on a past Game Changers), the judges, his co-hosts, the pros, the celebs––the joys and the not-so-much ones, dramatic moments, inside dish, to the current state of streaming affairs… could a return be in his future? I hope sure hope they're smart enough to do so, if he wants it. We talked The Masked Singer, behind the scenes with his crooning Taco, America's Funniest Home Videos, Bob Saget, Hollywood Squares, Whoopi, Henry Winkler, meditation, and his tome, I'm Hosting As Fast As I Can, which debuted in my living room as Tom himself debuted as Women Who Write's first man, oh those were the days. We talked improv and radio and how Tom honed his skills to get so damn great at this impromptu thing. The book he's dropped, not in the stores, from his life, the first reading of that debuted last time here, too, what he's binging, his dark turn in The Messenger, available at TomBergeron.com, and his film in development conceived over lunch with his now co-producer, William Shatner. This time with Tom was soul-filling and laughter-fueled. If only it could power my Honda. Forget cowbell. More Bergeron!

Do you give your clients great results, but aren't always sure how to express that to potential clients? A customer case study may be your answer! In this episode, I speak with Katie Corbett, a writer who focuses on customer case studies! Back in 2014, Katie wrote her first case study and fell in love. Katie Corbett works with business owners and marketing professionals so they can tell the success stories of their happy customers. She does this through writing customer case studies, gathering impactful testimonials, and collecting effective reviews. Katie has written for coaches of all types, technology companies, website developers, and graphic designers. If you have been wondering if you should have a case study, this episode should help you find some clarity. We also talk about how to use a case study, because having one is one thing, but using it effectively is another!We talk about how Katie came to learn her voice and writing style. A big pivoting point for her was when she found her niche and stopped taking work just for work - she only took on work that she loved. Katie is totally blind, but that does not stop her from starting her own business and giving her clients amazing results. When she talks about herself and her business, she does not make this a part of her marketing!While her business can be affected by her disability, she found a way to assemble a team around her for support. In this episode:- How Katie finds her clients- What is a customer case study- How to find your ideal writing style- How Katie assembled a team for supportAction steps:1.
