  • Survival as a Calling: The Boy Who Decided to Get Up
    2026/06/21
    Some people spend their whole lives searching for the thing that animates them. Rich Harwood found it the hard way. He was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis in 1960 and told he had three to five years to live. His family went on a death watch. Doctors called him a lemon. He grew up in hospital beds, learning early what it felt like to be invisible, manhandled, spoken about but never spoken to. What Rich did with all of that is not a story about triumph over adversity in the bumper-sticker sense. It's quieter and more honest than that. He decided, at eight years old, to stop calling for his parents in the night. Not out of bitterness. Because watching them fall apart hurt him more than the fever did. That decision became the seed of everything that followed, a life built around seeing people, hearing them, and refusing to let dignity be a thing you have to earn. Nearly forty years ago, Rich started the Harwood Institute for Public Innovation. Today it operates in fifty states and forty countries. His work is about bridging divides, restoring belief in one another, and helping communities come together and actually get things done. The line from that sick little boy watching a clock tick through the night to the work he does today is not a straight one. But it is a direct one. What You'll Hear: The moment at age eight when Rich stopped calling for his parents in the night, and what that act of compassion cost him How repeated chronic illness shaped his understanding of dignity, invisibility, and what it means to truly be seen The story of Mr. Rivers, a coach who changed the game schedule for one Jewish kid and saved a life in the process What Rich believes is the direct line between his childhood in hospital beds and the community work he does today The burning bush, and why Rich returns to that image every single day when the work feels impossible How getting in motion became his survival strategy at 4:28 in the morning, and why it still is at sixty-five Guest Bio: Rich Harwood is the founder and president of the Harwood Institute for Public Innovation, a nonprofit dedicated to helping communities bridge divides, build shared responsibility, and restore belief in one another. He started the organization at twenty-seven, when everyone told him not to. It now operates in fifty states and forty countries. He has written nine books, most of them with the word hope somewhere in the title. He lives his faith, loves his family, and still wakes up before 4:30 every morning ready to make something of the day.

  • Survival Into Service: The Night a Dog Changed Everything
    2026/06/17
    Some stories ask a lot of you. This is one of them. But it gives something back too. Karen Diskin-Dickson grew up in a house where silence was survival. From her earliest memories, she carried fear the way other kids carried backpacks, always aware of what the next moment might bring. She was a twin, a straight-A student, a girl who rescued stray dogs, and a child who believed it was her job to protect her sisters from what was happening inside their home. She never got a carefree childhood. She got a crash course in endurance. When she was 12 and a half, the weight of it all became unbearable. What followed was a moment by a river, a dog who changed everything, and a voice she had never heard before that told her she was loved. She chose to believe it. And somehow, improbably, that choice held. This episode traces what happened next. The escape. The years of silence. The therapy that helped her learn to play. The confrontation with her father at 24 finally freed her from fear. The decision, later in life, to move her elderly parents into her care, not out of obligation but out of grief for the mother she had never had, and a hunger to finally learn how to be someone's child. And the foundation she now runs with her sisters, helping trauma survivors understand that it's not what's wrong with them. It's what happened to them. What You'll Hear: The moment at 12 and a half that became Karen's life shift, and the dog who stopped it from going another way What it felt like to grow up not knowing what carefree meant, and how animals became her refuge How she learned to parent without a map, and why asking for help was one of the bravest things she ever did The long road to confronting her father and finally releasing a fear that had followed her across state lines Why she chose to care for the parents who hurt her, and what she was really looking for in that choice How the Remarkably Resilient Foundation grew from a shared question among sisters: who was going to teach this? Guest Bio: Karen Diskin-Dickson is a retired nurse, EMT, Reiki master, grandmother, and co-founder of the Remarkably Resilient Foundation, which she runs alongside her sisters. She is the co-author of Remarkably Resilient: Community Matters, published in 2019. Karen speaks publicly and volunteers with incarcerated individuals, helping trauma survivors understand their own responses and find a path toward healing. She lives with her life partner and four grown children nearby. You can reach her and explore her work at www.remarkably-resilient.com.

  • The Hero's Journey: Finding Yourself in the Story You Already Lived
    2026/06/14
    Maybe you've spent years showing up as a slightly different version of yourself depending on who was in the room. Maybe you learned early that being liked was safer than being known. If any of that lands, this conversation is for you. Peter Bailey grew up carrying something heavy: the feeling that something in his family was broken, and that it was somehow his job to fix it. That inherited sorrow shaped him into a kid who crossed the outside of a bridge over a six-lane highway just to feel like he mattered. It shaped him into someone who drank and people-pleased and performed his way through his twenties, until one night, sitting at a typewriter with a beer beside him, something in him finally said, this is going nowhere. What happened after that, including sobriety, Joseph Campbell's hero's journey, 45 years of leadership work across 50 countries, and a new book called The Epic of You, is a story about what becomes possible when you stop running from your own chapters and start reading them differently. What You'll Hear: How Peter inherited his family's sorrow as a young child, and how that shaped his relationship with approval and identity The moment at a typewriter that became his rock bottom and his turning point How discovering Joseph Campbell's hero's journey gave him a map for every season of his life, past and future The difference between surviving and thriving, and how we often spend years in the closet looking for the light Why he teaches "don't fix, don't judge, don't steal" as a way of showing up for others without taking the light off them What it looks like to treat your own life as a heroic journey, even the ordinary parts Guest Bio: Peter Bailey is the President of The Prouty Project, a strategic planning and leadership development firm based in Minneapolis. He is also the author of the newly published book The Epic of You- Reframe Your Past to Navigate Your Future. Bailey’s personal story — from challenges to triumphs, travel to transformation — becomes a living example of how obstacles can shape our identity and fuel our growth. Whether you’re standing at a crossroads or simply wondering “What now?”, The Epic of You helps you see your past with fresh eyes and your future with fresh purpose.
