Deborah Kobylt LIVE: Mark K Shriver

Deborah Kobylt Live

How did you spend this past weekend? I spent mine with books, fascinating authors, and inspiring stories from the 2021 #Bookfest, and was honored to interview #MarkKShriver about his third book, “10 Hidden Heros.”

For a man who’s grown up with many advantages, he’s taken lessons from his parents, #EuniceKennedyShriver and #SargentShriver, and tried to do good with them, writing about their positive influence of #giving, and strong message of #faith.

Please enjoy our full interview with Mark, where he’s quite transparent about his life, his siblings, and his work with the #ChildrensActionNetwork. We also discuss his first book about his dad, “A Good Man,” in addition to his book about the life of Pope Francis, “Pilgrimage.”

Thank you to #BooksThatMakeYou for including me in this wonderful weekend of authors, writers, and their books. I encourage you to check them out as well.

It’s a fascinating read, rich in history and tradition, and quite clever. Jennifer is also an artist, whose artwork brings up comparisons of Grandma Moses, and her work is whimsical and nothing short of extraordinary.

As a journalist, Jennifer has been published in the New York Times, Washington Post, and so many more top publications, and we talk about her unexpected journey into writing, which was quite unexpected.

Deborah Kobylt LIVE: Bobby Henline & Nony Geffen

Deborah Kobylt Live

Sometimes, we need to take a look at what life has thrown at us, and find the humor in it. And that’s just what retired Army Sgt. Bobby Henline did.

Henline was veteran of Desert Storm in his teenage years, and re-enlisted after 9/11/01. Sadly, his Humvee was blown up, and Henline was the only survivor, suffering burns over 40% of his body. During his extensive recovery, there were many down days, and he turned to humor as therapy. Now, he travels across the country lifting the spirits of others suffering from post-war trauma, giving hope that life is worth the struggle.

Henline has since teamed up with award-winning writer/director Nony Geffen to produce a documentary about his life, “Live Well Done.” Please join me today when I speak with Henline and Geffen about their upcoming film, the power of hope, resilience, and humor. #DeborahKobyltLIVE on all video and audio livestream platforms.
