What Nobody Tells Us

What Nobody Tells Us

"What Nobody Tells Us" shares everything you need to know about the things no one wants to talk about. Our society too easily avoids uncomfortable conversations, leaving those going through tough times feeling isolated, overwhelmed, and stressed beyond belief. Few know this better than host Christie Bishop. In 2009, at just 30 years old, host Christie Bishop's life and career were turned upside down when her then-fiancee, Bryan, was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor and given just six months to live. Christie's life went from wedding celebrations and climbing the marketing corporate ladder to living the devastating realities of cancer caregiving and feeling isolated from nearly everyone she knew. Christie knows the continuous overwhelm, confusion, isolation and stress that comes with facing a difficult personal situation -- it doesn't have to be cancer -- that society deems too uncomfortable to talk about. "What Nobody Tells Us" aims to demystify hard topics with compassion, insight, honesty and humor, supporting those who are going through it, as well as empowering friends and family to lean-in versus peace-out. If you or a loved one are facing a life-changing diagnosis, struggling as a parent, confused about age-related hormone issues, battling weight gain, facing mental health challenges and more… "What Nobody Tells Us" is for you.

I get it. Thinking about death and what to do with your body after you die is something most people avoid. But here's the thing: None of us are getting out of here alive, so you should be as purposeful about your death as you are with your life. It's a big deal, and you shouldn't be pressued to choose (IMHO) antiquated options.

For decades, the funeral industry has made billions of dollars by pushing people down one of two predomin...

So when divorce came up repeatedly as topic you all wanted to hear about (no judgments here), I knew I needed to find an expert guest top break it down.

Let this sink in for a moment: Most of us have no idea what our adult bodies feel like without the effects of alcohol. Even if you only have 1-2 drinks a week, your body is still processing out the alcohol instead of focusing on what it's meant to do: THRIVE. That's what I wanted to do but more and more, even my casual relationship with alcohol felt like it was getting in the way.

Over the past few years, my body hasn't tolerated a...
