    Breast Cancer Is No Joke, But These Women Found the Funny

    When you tell jokes for a living, it's hard not to find the humor in just about any situation. On this week's podcast my guests comedians Missy Hall and Maureen Ferguson understand that cancer isn't funny, but both women have used humor to get through their breast cancer diagnoses and now they're sharing their experiences on stage. They're performing "Breast Intentions" on Oct. 8 at SoulJoels in Pottstown, PA. Get your tickets here. Breast Intentions brings Missy and Maureen together for a night of comedy, storytelling, and conversation about cancer, the bodies we live in, survival, and everything that comes with it. Laugh, connect, and help us make something good out of the things we never asked for. Proceeds benefit Still Rise Farms where meals, movement, mindset, and medicine meet. Still Rise Farms provides retreats, education, and community-centered wellness programs for people navigating cancer, chronic illness, and recovery, helping extend care beyond treatment.

    Rachael Is Finding Beauty in Every Season

    When you think about life in Hawaii, do you imagine sipping a Mai Tai on the beach under a palm tree? That's nice but that's not the whole picture of what it's like to live on the island. Do you ever picture rats and wild boars? My conversation this week is with NEPA native Rachael Maier who has recently returned to the region after years away living in San Francisco and Hawaii. She shares the beauty as well as the challenges of living on the Big Island and she tells me about her passion projects that all stem from wanting to live well and share that with others--through fragrance, energy healing and curating a collection of clothing made from natural fabrics. To learn about Rachael's perfumery, follow @wild.ephemera on Instagram and follow @deepwild.wardrobe to learn about her vintage clothing pop-ups. You can also reach out to Rachael directly for a private tuning session, to book a private (or small group) perfume-making session, or to shop the wardrobe at deepwildcollective@gmail.com.  Visit her at the Montage Vintage & Thrift show on November 21st. https://discovernepa.com/event/montage-vintage-thrift-2026/  And watch for details on her perfume making workshop in November at The Releafery.

    Jeannine's Birthday Month Kicks Off Laughing through Loss

    This Virgo is truly in her element. I love September. I also love eating cake. So I am ready to celebrate my birthday month big time! This week's podcast episode is quite personal to me. Over the course of my father's illness and even after his passing, I found comfort, strength and bonding (with my mom, caregivers, my Dad) through the use of humor. Given that I perform stand-up comedy, I jotted down ideas and typed into my notes app whenever I had an especially funny or humorous moment or observation. After Dad passed away in May, I wanted to craft new comedy material based on my experiences with Dad's illness and death and perform it with the idea of raising awareness of the importance of talking about death and grief and to spotlight Hospice of the Sacred Heart. On Monday, August 31, I hosted "Laughing Through Loss," a virtual comedy show that featured my new material and performances by my friends, fellow comedians Gab Bonesso and Mary Rapach. This week's podcast episode features my comedy set from this virtual show. Watch for details in the coming weeks to view the entire show. Tune in next week to hear my conversation with yoga instructor and all around badass Mindy Hill about wellness and aging.

    Your Best Defense Is Your Brain & Intuition

    You might have heard me mention this once or 20 times recently: I am happily celebrating five years of Uncorked with Funny Wine Girl. In the spirit of celebration and a desire to give back to the community, I've been hosting a few in-person events here in NEPA. Last week I had the pleasure of collaborating with my friend Robert Thomas of Tsunami Self Defense Systems on an event I called Sip and Safety at the Abington Community Library. Some of the loveliest ladies of this region gathered to learn valuable information, tips and hands-on techniques. What Robert made very clear is the most important thing we can do is to trust our intuition, use our brain power and situational awareness as our first line of defense. Tune in to hear the live conversation with audience questions and participation from the Sip and Safety event. To watch the documentary about drink spiking produced by former podcast guest Shirah Benarde that I referenced this week, click here. If you are in NEPA and could use help with safe housing, crisis intervention, legal advocacy and other services that might be needed to leave an unsafe relationship visit WRC.

Lisa Rigau is the owner of Healthy Lifestyle Management, a friend, my podcast sponsor, and an experienced and knowledgeable wellness practitioner.

Lisa is a registered nurse, nutrition counselor, and community educator of health, wellness, mindfulness, and nutrition. She received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Delaware. Lisa received her Master’s degree from Marywood University in Sports Nutrition and Exercise Science.
