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.

Show notes

*When a lot of us think of plastic surgery, we think of women as being the ones more focused on their appearance and more likely to consider going under the knife to improve the way they look.

In recent years, however, the number of men having cosmetic procedures has soared. And one of the top plastic surgeons performing these procedures on men is our guest on this episode, Dr. Doug Steinbrech. Forbes described him as the “go-to surgeon for men” and we wanted to find out more about what treatments and procedures men are having done these days to look their best.

Heather Chauvin: ...that motherhood is personal growth on steroids Mar 14, 2021

Show notes

It’s a universally accepted truth that being a mother is rewarding and enriching, but it’s also exhausting and stressful. A lot of women are desperately trying to “give their all” in hopes of being the perfect mother. In the process, they’re feeling overwhelmed and hurting themselves and their families.

Our guest on this episode, Heather Chauvin, is the mother of three boys and her efforts to be “the perfect mom” were turned upside-down when she was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer seven years ago. Since then, her life has changed as has her concept of motherhood. She’s spoken about what happened to her in a popular Ted-X talk; she discusses it on her own podcast, called “Mom is in Control”, and she’s written about it in the new book, Dying to Be a Good Mother: How I Dropped the Guilt and Took Control of My Parenting and My Life.
