February 28th this year will be remembered in the pages of history. The Oscars this year will experience something it’s never experience in the history of the Academy as we have figures like Jada Pinkett Smith, Will Smith, Spike Lee, Whoopi Goldberg, George Clooney and Lupita Nyong’o to name a few speaking out and boycotting the ceremony.

With us today we have two very special guests, Roderick Warner (social activists, entertainer, actor, teaching artist and member of the Seven Collective Theater Company) and Jonathan McCrory (artistic director of the National Black theater, actor, entertainer, and co-founder of Harlem 9).

We will focus on the colors of Hollywood, specifically around the Oscar So White hashtag, the perceived call to "boycott" the Oscars brought upon by Jada Pinkett Smith, as well as the celebration or lack of importance on Black History month.

As humans, we can’t help but to compare ourselves to the person next to us. We can’t help but to wonder why we are not making as much as the same colleague that graduated with us at the same time with the same degree, why we don’t have the same body as the athletic person next to us at the gym when we workout harder, and why we’re still single while the next not-so-good-looking person is happily married. With us today, we have Mary Spio, author of “It's Not Rocket Science: 7 Game-Changing Traits for Uncommon Success.” Please welcome Mary as we dive into some of the most important traits you need to have in order to really fill your shoes and live out your best potential.

Society today likes to enforce self-sufficiency and people praise those that are independent. People say that the happiest people are those that don’t care what others say as long as you have a strong sense of self. Parents assume they’ve succeeded in raising their children when they no longer need their support. We are quick to say that we shouldn’t need other people to ‘complete’ us but today we have Amy Banks, author of “Wired to Connect” with us to prove otherwise. Relationships aren't the ‘icing’ on the cake – a healthy relationship IS the cake.

Sometimes we live our lives oblivious to the fact that there are areas of forgiving we need be doing. We are angry but we don't know why, we easily get hurt by what others say and we don't know why, we are quick to judge and we don't know why - have you ever stopped to wonder if possibly you harbored such attributes due to the very fact that there is some forgiving that needs to be done? Tune in as we have guest Joan Gattuso join us!

For those that are single or have been single for a long period time before finding your current spouse or partner, I’m sure you’ve been told at one point that A) you’re too picky B) you’re too independent C) you have low self-esteem D) that you’re too needy or E) some variation of what I just said. People are always trying to find reasons behind their single-ness but maybe you really aren’t the problem! There’s nothing wrong with knowing what you like and what you don’t like, there’s nothing wrong with making your own money and taking initiatives, having a degree and being CEO’s, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with wanting attention from the person you adore.

Our guest today is author of “It’s Not You: 27 (WRONG) Reasons You’re Single” and a freelance writer whose written for the New York Times, Forbes, Time Out New York, Martha Stewart Living, Self Magazine, Glamour Magazine – just to name a few.

Please welcome, Sara Eckel!

I’d like to wish everyone a very HAPPY HAPPY New Year and I wish for everyone to have a year filled with health and happiness. With that said, in order to really live out the best you can be this year, with us today we have Mark Mincolla, a natural healthcare practitioner who has helped thousands of people lose weight and get healthy the right way. He’s also released a new book this month, “The Whole Health Diet” that serves as an exceptional tool to those that want to really get to core of their journey to health instead of hopping from one fad diet to another.
