Deborah Kobylt LIVE: Danny Simmons & Seb “Fetan” Zewdie

Suffer For Good” is an inspiring documentary by filmmaker #DannySimmons​ about shattered dreams and never giving up. It’s the story of Ethiopian boxer #SebZewdie​, whose aspirations were put on hold after the boycott of the 1984 LA Olympics and a vicious stabbing that nearly took his life. Seb survived, became a political refugee in the U.S., and 33 years later, director Simmons follows his journey back into the boxing ring and joins us to talk about it. Seb’s life has had many unexpected moments in his life, yet his story is about never giving up, even when something awful tries to take you down.

Deborah Kobylt LIVE: Alex Mendoza & Eddie Martinez

So honored to speak with director #AlejandroMendoza and actor #EddieMartinez about their latest film, COVID-19, Sins and Virtues, currently on Vimeo, with ALL proceeds benefitting the #ActorsFund.

The film is a series of 14 episodes written and directed by various artists, all depicting #COVID from different points of view. Eddie appears in the episode titled, LUST, and it’s magnificent.Alejandro got the idea for these episodes after his own daughter got COVID early on, and the stress nearly broke him. Thankfully, she’s okay, but he decided to dive into his work to save his own sanity, and help so many who are struggling and are out of work due to covid, and he settled on the Actors Fund.

You might recognize Eddie from #LawAndOrder, #TheSinner, and most recently #AllRise on #ABC. He talks to us about filming remotely for this film on his iPhone and how the entire family got involved.

Deborah Kobylt LIVE: Patrice Shavone Brown

Most people think “big girls” have low self esteem and don’t feel sexy, says author Patrice Shavone Brown, but she’s not having it. Patrice may not be a size six, and she’s cool with that. In fact, she’s happy, feels beautiful in her own skin, and writes all about her journey as a woman of size in her latest book, “A Fat Girl’s Confidence. I’m Fat. So What?” Patrice tells DeborahZaraKobylt she’s tired of media deciding that bigger ladies are of less value because they aren’t stick thin. Her mission is to empower others to own their worth, regardless of size.
Patrice has worked two decades as a mental health counselor. She’s a mother of two, lost her mom and best friend in 2017, and says she’s been through a lot in her life and can help others navigate their own rough patch. “It’s hard, yet life is what you make it. And it’s full of twists and turns,” Patrice Shavone Brown shares. I hope you enjoy our show with this inspiring lady. There’s a lot of wisdom to gain here, starting with self love and acceptance

Deborah Kobylt LIVE: Renata Helfman

I’ve long admired, Renata Helfman, founder of Lipstick Angels, and believe me, Renata is an angel. Watching her grandmother battle cancer, this in-demand, Hollywood make-up artist knew the power of helping patients feel beautiful as they’re battling this awful disease. So she decided one day to put her talents to work, got her make up case, partnered with various hospitals, and now has a staff that goes every day to provide make up, beauty and spa treatments to patients in need of a mental and physical pick-me- up. Absolutely extraordinary using her gifts to help selflessly help others.

Hear all about Renata’s life and work. I promise she’ll inspire you to dig into your tool box and use your talents to make other people live their best lives.

We hope you enjoy our show, and you feel as inspired as I did speaking to to this beautiful lady.
