Nobody Told Me!

(Apple Podcast’s Best of 2018) When mother-daughter duo Jan Black and Laura Owens first conceptualized their two-generational talk show, nobody told them they’d snag the title of #1 self-help podcast for months on end! But that’s exactly what they’ve done, delving into topics as far-flung as network building, the importance of failure, finding hope after being kidnapped, and how the principles of brain surgery can help us work through everyday problems. Featuring interviews with extraordinary individuals, Nobody Told Me! shines light on the shared human experiences that bring us together, and the challenges that serve as catalysts for our greatest growth. Nobody Told Me! combines Jan’s impressive broadcast journalism background with Laura’s unique, millennial perspective. Driven by a genuine desire to educate and empower, their pioneering platform gives insight into the strategies and secrets of people in all walks of life. Equal parts information and inspiration, Nobody Told Me! brings a personal touch to the interview process. Together, Jan and Laura are asking the questions that help their listeners get through life’s toughest times.

Judy Batalion: ...that strength and courage can be passed down through generations Apr 24, 2021

Show notes

We love to learn about the lives of remarkable people and find out how they coped during difficult times. On this episode, we’ll hear about some of the unsung heroines of World War Two—the brave young Jewish women in the ghettos of the Nazi occupation in Poland. They saw and acknowledged the truth of their time and risk their lives in the fight for justice and freedom.

Joining us is author Judy Batalion, who did painstaking research in writing the new book, The Light of Days: The Untold Story of Women Resistance Fighters in Hitler’s Ghettos. It’s a story that’s so inspirational, fascinating and important that Steven Spielberg has optioned it for a major motion picture.

Dr. Taylor spent eight years recovering her ability to think, walk, and talk. She has become an advocate for stroke recovery and for the possibility of coming back from brain injury stronger than before. She’s the author of the best-selling memoir, My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist's Personal Journey. And, she’s the author of the new book, Whole Brain Living: The Anatomy of Choice and the Four Characters That Drive Our Life.
