Please welcome to our show Shannon Cohn, director of the #PBS documentary, “Below The Belt: The Last Health Taboo.”

The film talks about #endometriosis, which is often misdiagnosed in patients. The disease affects one in nine women who are often in extreme pain, discounted, and ultimately left with no answers.

In fact, can take years to diagnoses endometriosis, and the emotional and physical toll on patients is life-altering. Many can’t work, and often, endometriosis can lead to infertility.

The film follows the stories of four patients, each seeking answers to a painful problem. We will talk about identifying the causes, symptoms, and possible cures for endometriosis.

🇮🇹 Italians LOVE their baseball. Growing up, my parents gushed about #JoeDiMaggio, and now it’s #MikePiazza with my kids. So today, we welcome Joe Quagliano, president, and Chris Vaccaro, director, of the Italian American Baseball Foundation, doing a lot to merge young Italian ball players with baseball the U.S.

#IABF provides opportunities for youth development in baseball and softball, providing education and exposure to young players through clinics, coaching, and more. The foundation builds a pipeline of players from Italy to the U.S. by providing scholarships and showcases, supporting the Italian National Teams as American partners, and promoting baseball and softball players from high school to the Major League level.

These two have been committed to this cause since it started, and it stems from their love of baseball and all things Italian. Chris has been a successful media consultant and journalist, and Joe runs Mint Pros, providing VIP events primarily around baseball. And their love of the game is creating something special for the next round of ball players.

Deborah Kobylt Live

Teens are experiencing record amounts of stress, and sleep can have a LOT to do with it. Please welcome to our show, Lisa L. Lewis, author, “The Sleep Deprived Teen,” an inside look at why our teenagers are so tired, and how parents and schools can help teens thrive.

We’ll be discussing the science of why sleep matters; how sleep affects mental health, academics, and athletic performance; we’ll talk about gender and sleep; technology and sleep, and much more.

The question is, how do teens get more sleep? Particularly when their bodies want to get to sleep later, and schools start early. We talk about all of that and more. It’s an important discussion, not just for teens, but parents, educators, and anyone interested in learning about what happens when we sleep and how we sort through our thoughts.

Please join our full interview on all video and audio platforms of #DeborahKobyltLIVE, and invite all friends, too. I’m your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt, someone who does NOT get enough sleep, often lost in my own thoughts! So please join us, there’s a lot to learn.

Please welcome to our show Terri Allen, co-founder of Angels of Light Children’s Foundation, a non-profit that provides children, teachers, parents, and professionals with effective “mindfulness” techniques for the whole child.

Currently, children worldwide are exposed to enormous stress that many adults find too challenging to process. The mission of the Foundation is to help children develop the skills to nurture wellness from within to make solid choices for themselves. She hopes to incorporate this into schools, too.

Terri has co-written two books she’ll be speaking about, “My Magical Garden” and “My Magical Tree.” These are fun, interactive books where children are encouraged to use their imagination and creativity to make choices that feel comfortable to them. Her mindfulness programs are designed to help young people regulate emotions, manage stress, and any other challenges they may be facing. She talks about this, and how our society needs to better support mental health issues to combat anxiety, depression, anger, and so much more facing young people today.

Please welcome Terri, invite your friends, and join our conversation on #DeborahKobyltLIVE, available on all video and audio platforms. I’m your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt, thanks for joining us!

Nico Juber, Award-winning Composer

Deborah Kobylt Live

Please welcome to our show Nico Juber, award-winning composer and musical theater writer recently highlighted on the “2023 Women to Watch on Broadway” list, after making her Off-Broadway debut with “MILLENNIALS ARE KILLING MUSICALS,” which was an astounding success.

And Nico is on the move. Her musical WINNER, co-written with Joe Barros, is set to debut in the West End as part of The London Summer Music Theatre Academy later this summer. And she’s only just getting started.

Nico comes from a true legendary background. Her dad, Laurence Juber, is a musician whose work includes playing in the band, #Wings (yes, she’s met Paul McCartney, my personal idol), and her mom, Hope, an accomplished writer and actress whom I’ve had on my show. Nico’s grandfather, who is Hope’s dad, was Sherwood Schwartz, the creator of so many incredible shows from The Brady Bunch to Gillian’s Island. Let’s just say she’s learned from the best.

But it took some time for Nico to flourish, because cancer got in her way (she’s recovered), and she welcomed two children. But once got behind the piano again, she found her voice. She tells us about that, and also the nonprofit she created for cancer survivors called Thrive/Survive Los Angeles.

There’s a LOT to talk about, including the need for more women in leadership roles in theater, TV, and film. Please tune in to #DeborahKobyltLIVE on all video and audio podcast platforms, and invite your friends, too. I’m your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt. And a BIG shout out to my friends at the BRA Network, including Carry, Catherine, and Debra, who introduced me to Nico.

It might sound cliche, but it’s not. Being grateful, meditating, sleeping, exercise, and setting aside time each day to do it, matters.
