Richard Westreich MD
Aug 31, 202200:00:30Tap to summarizeKathryn interviews Author Patricia Grayhall MD.In her debut memoir Patricia Grayhall MD shares her personal story for anyone who has ever lived the burden of being told their passions or ambitions are wrong. At 19, defying expectations of a woman growing up in Arizona in the 60s, she fled Phoenix for San Francisco, determined to finally come out as a lesbian after years of trying to be a “normal” girl. Her dream of becoming a physician drew her back to college, and then on to medical school in the conservative environment of Salt Lake City. Patricia longed for an equal loving relationship with a woman but her graduate medical training in Boston, with its emotional demands, long hours, lack of sleep, and social isolation, made finding that relationship difficult. Her memoir is a chronicle of coming of age during second wave feminism and striving to have both love and career as a gay medical doctor-finding them in the most surprising ways. She has published in Queer Forty and The Gay and Lesbian Review.Kathryn also interviews Dr. Richard Westreich.When Dr. Richard Westreich is not performing rhinoplasty, facial contouring or upper eyelid surgery at his NYC practice, he is pursuing his passion for music — and helping local artists along the way. His band, Big Rich Energy, is currently on tour in NYC and all of the band’s proceeds go to charities that support local artists and music education. He also uses his music to draw attention to critical issues, such as gun violence. He’s been selected multiple times by Castle Connolly and New York magazine as one of the top doctors in facial plastic surgery. Dr. Westreich also offers safety tips for those considering any cosmetic procedures which can improve chances of a better outcome. He is an assistant professor at SUNY Downstate Medical Center and is on staff at Lenox Hill and Mount Sinai Hospitals in NYC, where he can be seen regularly on the ABC, CBS, FOX and Newsmax networks.

Aug 24, 202200:00:30Tap to summarizeKathryn interviews OBGYN and Surgeon Greg Marchand MD.The current status of abortion laws throughout the states are confusing at best. With the overturning of Roe vs. Wade, many women are left with questions pertaining to their reproductive rights. Dr. Greg Marchand helps to shed some light on the subject of abortion rights, especially in Arizona, giving us a timeline of the legality of abortion. Of particular interest is that some private providers have resumed abortion services in Arizona even though Planned Parenthood has not. Dr. Marchand is a board certified physician in Obstetrics and Gynecology and is an expert in minimally invasive surgery. He has published extensively in the field of minimally invasive surgery and is recognized internationally as a pioneer in developing laparoscopic techniques. He holds the Guinness Book of World Records for performing a total laparoscopic hysterectomy through the smallest incision ever. Kathryn also interviews Attorney, CEO Evie Jeang JD. Evie Jeang is a licensed attorney in California and New York and the Founder of Ideal Legal Group, practicing in the areas of international family and surrogacy law. She is a surrogacy expert and is the President and CEO of Surrogacy Concierge, an agency that helps couples create families by connecting them with surrogates. Many LBGTQ+ couples have chosen Surrogacy Concierge because of its world class associates, including hospitality, legal and medical professionals. Jeang understands first-hand the impact that a demanding career or health issues can have on one’s ability to expand their family. Career driven in her twenties, she knew she wanted a child but didn't want to get married. She froze her eggs, and later had her son Evan via surrogate in 2014. Jeang has been featured in Forbes, LA Business Journal and on CNBC.

Along with co-writer Poet-Philosopher Noah benShea, he employs surfing as a metaphor to analyze 18 “breaking waves” of life, including loss, depression, aging and relationship changes.

We are shown what makes math fun and meaningful by showing how our service to others multiplies when people pitch in together. The whimsical, rhyming text and colorful artwork from award-winning artist Laura Watson inspire discussion on such topics as friendship, leadership, and camaraderie while illustrating the basic concepts of multiplication. We learn how living a life in service of others provides children with a sense of purpose, increases their confidence, and builds strong, resilient communities.

Aug 10, 202200:00:30Tap to summarizeKathryn interviews Author Marianna De Marco Torgovnick.Marianna De Marco Torgovnick experienced the rupture of two of her life’s most intimate relations when her mother and brother died in close proximity. Mourning rocked her life, but it also led to the solace and insight offered by classic books and the practice of meditation. She entered a spiritual and psychological state of “transcendental homelessness”: the feeling of being truly at home nowhere, of being spiritually adrift. Her resulting journey into the past imagines a viable future and raises questions acute for Italian Americans but pertinent to everyone, about the nature of memory and the meanings of home at a time, like ours, marked by cultural disruption and wartime. She shares with us a wide-ranging memoir about growing older and learning to ride the waves of change. She is an award winning author and currently directs The Duke in New York Arts and Media Program. Kathryn also interviews Author Jen Maxfield. Emmy Award–winning reporter and news anchor Jen Maxfield has seen just about everything in her more than two decades on the air. But what happens after a story is reported, once the cameras are turned off? She introduces readers to people whose hopefulness and perseverance will inspire. She follows up on stories that have been transformative for the subjects—and for her—to uncover what’s transpired in the years since her original reporting. Spotlighting inspirational everyday people, many of whom have endured tremendous hardship, Maxfield updates readers on a woman whose life was saved by her toddler after a violent attack by her boyfriend; families devastated by natural disasters and the communities that aided them; the relatives of a young man killed by a terrorist; and more. Maxfield joined NBC New York in 2013. Prior to joining the station, she worked for Eyewitness News (ABC7) in New York City as a reporter and substitute anchor for ten years.

Aug 3, 202200:00:30Tap to summarizeKathryn interviews Author Christine Miles.Do you want to make a positive change in your life, work, or business? Do you want to improve your marriage, be a better parent, or drive more revenue to your business? Christine Miles encourages us to examine how we are listening. She helps us to discover that not only are many of the problems in our lives due to not listening effectively, but how listening helps to solve most problems. Miles is a longtime expert in educating individuals and organizations on how to listen in ways that transform how they lead, sell, influence, and succeed in every aspect of life. Christine founded her consulting and training business, EQuipt, to help leaders from medium-sized companies to Fortune 100 corporations grow sales, develop people, and create cultures of understanding. She also created her workshop The Listening Path, a transformational approach to understanding and insight. Kathryn also interviews Author David Ambroz. Award-winning child welfare advocate David Ambroz writes about his first 11 years growing up homeless in and around NYC and his subsequent years in foster care. For David and his two siblings, their mother’s battle with paranoid schizophrenia brings with it poverty and instability. When he is placed in foster care, it feels at first like salvation but soon proves to be just as unsafe for him, his burgeoning homosexuality an easy target for others’ cruelty. In the face of this deprivation and abuse, he harnesses an inner grit to escape the all-too-familiar outcome for a kid like him. He finds hope and opportunity in libraries, schools, and the occasional kind-hearted adult. Through hard work and unwavering resolve, he is able to get a scholarship to Vassar College, his first step out of poverty. He later graduates from UCLA Law with a vision of changing the laws that affect children in poverty. He was recognized by President Obama as an American Champion of Change.
