Many midlife women begin with a choice to eat healthier and for some, that choice becomes an issue that takes over their lives. Nicole discusses the reasons and complications unique to midlife women, available treatments and centers as well as recovery. Anorexia, Bulimia and Orthorexia remain in the shadows of our global conversations and that needs to change!

It is every parent's nightmare: a mass shooting where your child attends school. For Jeffrey Kasky, the nightmare became a reality on Valentine's Day in 2018 when two of his sons were attending school at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, FL. We speak to Jeffrey about that horrible day, his family's experience, how he navigated the instant notoriety of his son, Cameron Kasky and how they are doing today. Every parent should listen to his honest retelling of that day from a father's perspective.
