  • サマリー

  • Are you looking to create a big change in your life? Are you unsure of where to start? That was me in August of 2020. For as long as I can remember, my story was always defined by my poor choices and how they lead to pain, devastation, and trauma. After years of heavy alcohol and cocaine use, I hit rock bottom. I realized that I was preventing myself from living life with purpose and being true to myself, and decided that it was time to turn the page and start a new story. I started taking small steps. By taking that first step, I was ready to take the next one, and then the next one, and then the next one. Every day is a journey for me, and I now believe I am in the middle of the most beautiful recovery story of all time. Why? Because it is my story, and for the first time ever, I was authoring my own life. No matter what you are going through, without taking small steps, you are limiting your potential to create big change. Whether it is substance use abuse, gun violence, mental health, race, social media, you name it, the only way to make lasting change is to dot all your I’s and cross all your T’s. Each week I will introduce you to a friend who has used small steps to help create their big change. As humans, we are all going through something, and it is my goal that by sharing our stories and bringing vulnerability and empathy to the forefront, we can learn from each other, and take the small steps that are needed to create big change.

  • Ep 10: Small Steps with Marisa Renee Lee: Healing From Loss & Navigating Through Grief

    Ep 10: Small Steps with Marisa Renee Lee: Healing From Loss & Navigating Through Grief
    2022/11/09

    Many of the conversations we have had on this podcast have been around subject areas or circumstances that many of us, but not all of us, go through. This discussion with Marissa. Renee Lee is one that can connect with everyone. Losing a loved one or having a really bad experience in life happens to us all. Marissa joins us to discuss the idea that healing from loss does not mean moving on, but instead that we need to strive to love those we have lost even after death. And when you really dive deep, you can sometimes find love that you didn't even feel when they were alive

    Marisa Renee Lee is a called upon grief advocate, entrepreneur, and bestselling author of Grief is Love: Living with Loss. Deemed "the friend we all wish we had in times of need" by Elaine Welteroth, Marisa is able to utilize research-based advice and wisdom to help others navigate the complicated and dark emotions we face when experiencing loss, offering unique insights for women and Black communities. 

    In addition to her work in the grief space, Lee is a former appointee in the Obama White House and CEO of Beacon Advisors, a mission-driven consulting firm primarily focused on racial equity. She is a rabble-rouser of social healing: former managing director of My Brother's Keeper Alliance; co-founder of the digital platform Supportal; and founder of The Pink Agenda, a national organization dedicated to raising money for breast cancer care, research, and awareness. 

    Lee also regularly contributes to The Atlantic, Glamour, Vogue, MSNBC, CNN and serves as an expert for Ritual's wellbeing app. She is a Harvard graduate and an avid home cook. Marisa lives in Virginia with her husband Matt, their newborn son Bennett, and their dog, Sadie.

    Join us in this conversation to hear the small steps Marisa Renee Lee took to better navigate grief.

  • Ep 8: Small Steps with Robert Walker: Measuring Our Lives by the Impact We Make

    Ep 8: Small Steps with Robert Walker: Measuring Our Lives by the Impact We Make
    2022/10/26

    This conversation is with a special guest, Robert Walker, who is also my friend and mentor. Robert Walker is known to his friends and colleagues as Bob. Bob founded American Program Bureau (APB), to provide an open forum for individuals to voice their opinions and point of view. Today, APB has the largest speaker roster in the industry, from entertainers and politicians to business leaders and renowned public intellectuals. A pioneering force in the lecture industry, Bob and the team at APB Speakers created the medium for people to see the most exciting and popular personalities, hear cutting-edge ideas, and experience the leaders, activists, and innovators, unedited and unfiltered by mass media. 

    Upon founding APB in 1965, Walker reinvented the traditional lecture by creating infotainment to transmit the innovative intellectual excitement of a dynamic time and an entertaining format. From colleges to town halls, community forums, corporations, and trade and professional associations, this fourth medium offered audiences what they could not get elsewhere. To this day, under Walker's guidance and leadership, APB's culture of innovation continues to define each era while always looking into the future.

    Join us in this conversation to hear the small steps Robert Walker took to put purpose over profit and show us how to measure our lives by the impact we make.
