Lisa Jakub, also known as Lydia from the film Mrs. Doubtfire, left a thriving career in Hollywood at the age of 22 ("Everybody told me I was crazy."). In this episode, she talks about growing up as a child actor, the influence of her beloved friend and Doubtfire co-star, Robin Williams, her decision to leave acting, and how she discovered a powerful calling to help veterans. A mission that has been, literally, lifesaving.
