Join us for an inspiring “two-fer” episode with Leeza Gibbons from Leeza’s Care Connection and Wendy Marantz Levine from Beauty Bus. Leeza Gibbons, Emmy-Award winning TV journalist and NY Times bestselling author and Wendy Levine, named one of 50 women who inspire and make an impact in Los Angeles by L.A. Magazine, share how their personal tragedies have fueled their commitment to reach out to others who are hurting. Both Leeza and Wendy, through their separate endeavors, provide free resources and guidance as they deliver loving-kindness and support to seriously ill patients and their caregivers.

Leeza and Wendy’s powerful stories transform pain into purpose and show how their personal tragedies have fueled their commitment to reach out to others who are hurting. In Leeza’s case, it was when she was hosting the television show “Extra” and her mother was diagnosed with Alzhiemer’s disease. And for Wendy Levine, it was when she was Director of Litigation spearheading the international Holocaust Services Justice Network at Bet Tzedek where they provide free legal services for Holocaust survivors and her sister was diagnosed with a rare form of ALS.

Both Leeza and Wendy, through their separate organizations, provide guidance and resources that you will find extremely helpful.

We hope that you will then take this information and share it generously with anyone you know who could benefit from it...it could even be you!

If you know of someone who could benefit from these organizations, please share their websites www.leezascareconnection.org and www.beautybus.org

play

06/29/20 • 54 min

In this 4th of July episode, Katrina and Jefferson start off by performing an acoustic version of “America the Beautiful” as a reminder that, as Americans, we belong together and we are here for each other. Tied into the theme of unity and caring, Katrina and JD also unpack the notion that “doing good does you good” and the scientifically supported evidence that proves it! You’ll see how approaching people with kindness transforms not only those receiving kindness, but those giving it as well.

Next, we meet Scoutmaster Mike Lanning who has dedicated his life to the future of our country through his commitment to the youth of The Boy Scouts of America. He has been leading Troop 223 in Pacific Palisades, California for 67 years and has guided over 800 boys in attaining the rank of Eagle Scout – a national record of any Scoutmaster! And now, for the first time in it’s over 100-year history, the iconic program for 11-18 year olds, Scouts BSA, is open to both young men and young women. In addition to his outstanding leadership and commitment to Troop 223B (“B” for boys), Scoutmaster Lanning is now leading Troop 223G (“G” for girls), the largest troop of young women in the nation with over 50 girls on their way to becoming some of the first female Eagles Scouts ever.

Join us as Scoutmaster Mike Lanning takes us on the ultimate adventure with the wisdom, inspiration and experience that he has gained from a lifetime of commitment to The Boy Scouts of America---the fun, the adventure, and the challenges. From tying knots to teaching life-saving skills, this podcast is “knot” to be missed!
