We chatted with SiriusXM talk show host, entrepreneur, podcaster, and mom, Nicole Ryan. What happens when a fresh start is forced upon us in life? After surviving a car accident, Nicole had to rebuild her body, mind, and life, and start fresh with a grateful perspective on life.

Zach Lupetin is the founding member of folk-rock band Dustbowl Revival. We chatted with Zach about the birth of his daughter, how his wife nearly died during delivery, and his fresh start into fatherhood during a traumatic event. It’s a beautiful conversation about parenthood, marriage, making brave decisions, and how the soundtrack of our lives is the heartbeat within all of our stories.

On this episode of A Fresh Story, we chatted with talent broker and triathlete Susan Gold about how we can transform our traumatic experiences into growth lessons, and her personal story of finding her way back to herself after a long and winding road in the entertainment industry and divorcing a narcissist.
