Autoimmunity and The Good Girls

For generations, women have been conditioned to prioritize others, silence their voices, and neglect their own needs. In her latest work, Sara Hirsh Bordo addresses a critical gap in women's wellness: the power of self-permission to speak, transform, and heal. Drawing on more than 50 hours of interviews, she explores why women often minimize their own suffering and health concerns, and offers a path toward self-prioritization. Her new book encourages women to put themselves first, alongside her limited-edition podcast, Behind the Page: Autoimmunity and the Good Girls, launching March 31. Bordo is an award-winning filmmaker and founder of Women Rising®, recognized by Inc. for leading a purpose-driven, innovative women-led company. She is currently directing short documentary films for Toyota and ESPN Women, and most recently served as executive producer of the ConnectHer International Film Festival.

A Letter Is Better

In a world of texts, DMs, and disappearing messages, one woman is bringing back the lost art of the thank-you note, typing over 1,000 letters a year on vintage typewriters, and the results are nothing short of extraordinary. Erica Gerard Di Bona explores why expressing gratitude in writing doesn't just make someone feel appreciated; it strengthens relationships, boosts mental wellbeing, and even opens unexpected professional doors. Erica is a former producer in network news, The Playboy Channel, documentaries, and kids' game shows. She has often received letters and messages back from such notables as Connie Chung, Norman Lear, and Henry Winkler.

Many affairs happen in relationships that seem perfectly happy. And when betrayal is discovered, it doesn't just break hearts; it shatters a person's identity- their entire sense of who they are in the world. Lora Cheadle's expertise is born from lived experience. When she discovered her husband had been unfaithful for 15 years, she faced a choice: remain a victim or become an architect of her own healing. She chose transformation. The work she and her husband did to repair their marriage—with accountability, integrity, and commitment—became the foundation for her work in betrayal recovery. Lora is an author, TEDx speaker, and leadership wellness coach who specializes in burnout and betrayal recovery. She has spoken and trained internationally, and hosts the top-rated podcast, FLAUNT! Create a Life You Love After Infidelity or Betrayal.
