To celebrate Episode 100 of this podcast, here I chat with 100-year-old Mildred Kirschenbaum. Mildred has become a social media star and is happily sharing some life lessons of her ten decades. She not only became an author at 100, Mildred entertains over 100,000 on TikTok and Instagram. Her videos have been featured on mainstream media outlets like the Today Show, CBS and Fox. Mildred and her daghter Gayle collaborated on a book, Mildred’s Mindset: Wisdom from a Woman Centenarian, a 76-page self-published book that melds anecdotes, photos, and life advice. In Mildred's book, readers embark on a journey through the extraordinary life lessons of a centenarian whose vitality and wisdom defy age. The New York-born Kirschenbaum became a viral sensation almost immediately by being herself and sharing what she has learned over the past 100 years. I was so grateful to ask her about the what she believes is most important in life and of course what she's "Dying To Tell" us. Mildred stands as a testament to the power of embracing life's joys, fostering connections, and approaching each day with unwavering zest. Enjoy and thank you for listening. Hugs, Lorri

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.
