First time I cried after my accident for a legit reason that wasn't espresso martinis? When all my hair fell out of my head! A combination of significant bodily trauma and being exposed to exorbitant amounts of anesthesia caused my seemingly endless amounts of thick curly hair to abandon me during the time I needed it most.
Unfortunately...that happens to a lot of people along complicated health journeys and battles, not just me.
Losing your hair is losing a part of your sense of self. And if you're like me where your hair is 70% of your personality, that significant part equates to a loss of confidence and a loss of hope. Especially after you've already lost so much.
Curly hair extensions are rumored to be a myth, but I live in the City of Angels and one of those angels is Israel (Izzy) Guzman: celebrity hairstylist, hair extension specialist, hair colorist, crystal shop owner, spiritual student, and, most importantly, friend.
I met Izzy along my mission to bring back what I thought was a defining trait of myself and while many will argue that it's not, it's just hair...eh...the people who's hair have fallen out emotionally beg to differ. We talk about why hair is so important, how hair loss can be a massive, often unspoken, trauma, and why maintaining hair and bringing back one's hair is a necessary act of service.
Come learn about hair, learn about this underplayed trauma, learn about empathy, learn about self love.
Win most, lose some

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
