Taking control and redefining success. Two concepts much easier said than done, but often necessary when we hit a fork in our life journey road. Join us this week in another of our Share the Chair series as CH sits down with friend, former colleague and host of the AP Taylor Swift podcast, Jodi Innerfield, who shares the transformative journey she's been on since being laid off earlier in 2025 and of which has found her embracing not only her own entrepreneurial spirit but redefining what it means to be successful. Jodi opens up about how this career fork is a little bit different than those in her past, and how she has embraced the transition from a structured corporate role to carving her own path as an independent consultant fueled by a newfound sense of control and direction.

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.
