When something unexpected happens in our lives, just like in the movies, everyone and everything seems to freeze, and the soundtrack playing in the background stops abruptly with the sound of a needle across vinyl.
A record scratch.
These big, disruptive moments require resiliency to move forward with our lives, for we are never the same.
It’s how we decide to respond to these events that shapes us. In these interviews, there’s no competition and no judgment as we speak about varying topics including generational trauma, grief, PTSD, and what we can do to heal our wounds and be better humans.

Looking Ahead
We have completed Season 4 of Record Scratch with Kara Kavensky. While the crew is taking a break, primarily due to my book tour for my memoir, TELL ME ABOUT JOY, we will replay interviews from Record Scratch and other podcasts. So please stay tuned for some surprises here and there until we start Season 5 in January 2027.
I've been overwhelmed by the positive response that my memoir has been receiving, and I am so grateful for all of you who have purchased my book, attended events, and supported me. Thank you so much!
