  Comedian Peter Story has a brand-new spin on an age-old topic: love, marriage and communication in relationships. In his hysterical one-man show based on Dr. John Gray’s megaseller Men Are from Mars, Women Are From Venus, he examines the gender gap and bridges it with humor and insight.       “I may talk about Martians and Venusians but this is really a universal tale that is understood and appreciated by everyone.” The book has been adapted for stage in multiple countries around the world. The U.S. production of the live show stars Peter, who has appeared on television shows such as CSI, Without a Trace and Ugly Betty.  You can follow him on various social media platforms @thepeterstory.        “Shift happens right where you are,” says LeGrande.

Resolving conflict–whether work-based or home-based–is the key to a compassionate life. “I want to help people get their shift together,” says Lynne Maureen Hurdle, one of the country’s leading conflict resolution strategists. “It all starts with mastering the art of listening.”       Healing old wounds is always at the center of Lynne’s work. Her belief that transforming others’ lives begins with transforming your own has led her to tackle a longtime issue of learning how to love herself at all sizes. Her brave look at fat shaming culminated in her well-received “The Weight of Hate” TEDxWomen talk.       From Harlem to Hong Kong, Lynne's global work in Transformational Conflict Resolution gives her clients life-changing skills. "It's about more than reacting and responding. We have to look at our patterns of conflict and transcend them." Her website is www.lynnemaureenhurdle.com.       “Shi

“A good man, as the saying goes, is hard to find. Well, not really. There are millions of good men out there. Millions. Good men whose intentions are honorable. Good men who don’t need to be bad boys to prove themselves. And these good men are not hiding. They’re everywhere, in plain sight. “       Those are the words of Thomas G. Fiffer, relationship expert and executive editor of “The Good Men Project.” Today on BOLD, he spills the goods on how to attract, court–and keep–a good man.       A graduate of Yale University, Tom is a professional writer, speaker, and storyteller with a focus on diagnosing and healing dysfunctional relationships.

  “America is scientifically illiterate,” says Dr. Jeff Schweitzer, best-selling author of Beyond Cosmic Dice: Moral Life in a Random World. “Some of the basic ideas of who we really are has been lost. This dumbing down has impacted our health, our economy, our society, our very future.”    From evolution to climate change to the anti-vaccine movement, Jeff is a former White House analyst and acclaimed scientist well-equipped to shut down all deniers. His provocative book offers a new perspective on the purpose and meaning of life free from any divine influence.  “Science is not opinion. We are not here to offer coupons to heaven or celebrate ignorance.” Jeff’s site is www.jeffschweitzer.com.   “Shift happens right where you are,” says LeGrande.

The explosive intersection where racism and technology meet is inundating our headlines as bystanders become accidental activists. “Social media has given power to the people but it’s important we use that power in constructive, empowering ways,” says award-winning filmmaker Nicole Franklin, a St. Louis native. "I knew one day our dirty little secret about Ferguson would come out."       From that Missouri conflagration to the most recent pool party debacle in McKinney, Texas, police are on notice–and not happy about it. “There are thousands of good police officers for every rogue cop,” says Nicole. “My job as a filmmaker is to bring diverse voices to the conversation.”       Nicole is also an accomplished writer, speaker and editor who covers the topic of young black men and love through her work on EPIPHANY Inc.’s Little Brother film series, produced with J. Tiggett. Clips from Little Brother may be screened at LittleBrothe

Our society teaches men to bottle up their emotions, to abandon intimacy and connection in order to avoid looking weak. In his article “Unlocking the Power of Tears,” Dan Mahle says it’s time to accept that real men cry. “What most men truly want is to feel loved, connected and alive. Far too often we allow our shame to keep us distant, detached, and depressed.”     Today, men around the world are co-creating a new story of masculinity and discovering the power of healthy vulnerability. “When we learn to lean into our fears and celebrate our failures,” Dan says, “we discover what it means to live a life of deep connection and fulfillment–as wholehearted men.” From relationship advice to current events, Dan’s blogs and features explore these issues and more at his site www.wholeheartedmasculine.org.   This episode is a special preview of our upcoming summer series with the Good Men Project...stay tuned!

  It’s a secret epidemic that’s rocking our country: an estimated 400 U.S. doctors kill themselves every year. The little-noticed, little-discussed trend has enormous implications. “400 physician deaths mean that a million Americans lose their doctors to suicide each year,” says Dr. Pamela Wible, a family medicine doctor in Eugene, Oregon.    Suffering in silence, many doctors are struggling with depression, anxiety, or addiction. “When doctors kill themselves, the ramifications have far-reaching effects. Our profession requires us to put on the white coat on and the fake smile. There’s got to be a better way.” Dr. Wible’s site is www.idealmedicalcare.org.   “Shift happens right where you are,” says LeGrande.

Black women are the single most religious demographic in the United States, yet they are among the poorest and least healthy groups in the nation. Inviting furor and conversation, author Candace Gorham says the core issue is too much reliance on religion and the literal interpretation of the Bible.   Drawing on her own past experience as an evangelical minister, she infuses The Ebony Exodus Project: Why Black Women Are Walking out on Religion–And Others Should Too with raw, bracing honesty. “People–especially women–need to think for themselves.

I had to reach for something more.”   Through interviews with African-American women who have left the church, Candace reveals a legacy of shame and suffering.

That changes today.   Developed by Chris Michaels, “The Life Purpose Project” is packed with practical tools and powerful speakers, a transformative weekend that helps you reconnect with your passion, no matter where you are on your journey.
