  • 126. Speechless with Vanessa Abraham
    May 14 2025

    Vanessa Abraham was a speech therapist who lost her voice — literally.

    A rare neurological disease — a form of Guillain-Barré Syndrome — left her completely paralyzed and unable to speak. What followed wasn’t just a physical recovery, but an emotional and spiritual reckoning with identity, isolation, and medical trauma that no one prepares you for.

    Today, Vanessa is a neuromuscular practitioner, helping others heal after their own health crises — but survival was only the beginning of her story.

    She written a memoir, Speechless: https://a.co/d/b4YGrQC

  • 125. Steve Gamlin on Losing His Soulmate
    May 7 2025

    In this tender and deeply honest conversation, I sat down with speaker Steve Gamlin to talk about one of the hardest experiences of his life: losing his soulmate.

    Steve opens up about the moment everything changed, the grief that followed, and how he's been navigating the heartbreak one breath, one memory, and one day at a time. With his signature blend of wisdom and wit, he shares how love doesn't end with loss, and how he’s finding ways to honor her memory while continuing to live a life of purpose.
