Mental health is beginning to lose the stigma its been wrapped in for much of recent history, but there is sooo much work still to be done, and sooo many conversation still to be had on this topic. Singer, songwriter, activist, and scholar, Jewel, has spent much of her adult life researching and enacting effective ways to deal with anxiety and depression, and then share her work with the world. She'll tell you (and I'll agree with her) that as obsessed as we all are with "hacks" they simply don't exist for getting through grief and emotional healing. What does work? Join us on this episode of LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah as we discuss her theories and she talks about the book she's working on. This is Part 2 of the most fascinating conversations I've ever had! ~ Delilah Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Show of hands for all of you who love singer/songwriter Jewel... Mine's up in the air! Since her break-out hit, "Hands" in the fall of 1998, this sweet and sparkly Jewel is much beloved, but I'm willing to guess that many of you are just as clueless as I was as to the absolute powerhouse of intellect this woman is!Raised in circumstances of dire need, without the security most of us have always taken for granted, Jewel has always been a crafty survivor, but she has grown into so much more. Her philanthropy stretches across continents and is also strongly felt on our shores. She started by offering to others, who were looking for ways to bolster their mental health, the coping practices she developed for herself during a brief time of homelessness. From there, she's developed several more projects, each targeted at helping vulnerable populations. Her latest work is a film, "Lost In America" about our homeless youth, and of course, her own music provides the soundtrack. The single, "No More Tears" is out now, and we're going to talk about that and so much more on this episode of Love Someone with Delilah. It's Part 1 of 2 and I know you're going to want to join me next time to hear the rest! ~ Delilah Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ever have the desire to be your own boss? To take a passion of yours to the next level and offer it up, and get paid for your time and talent? If so, then my guest today on LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah is definitely someone you want to get to know! Lindsay Teague Moreno is a married mama of three little ones, a successful business owner, podcaster, and author. Her book, "Boss Up!" was my book club pick for last September, and I am super happy to be able to talk with her today. She's an ardent advocate for women entrepreneurs, and those who want it all but give themselves 50 excuses why "right now" isn't the right time. Lindsay helps women gain the confidence to know that having ambition doesn't diminish their roles of wife or mother, it ENHANCES it! It is not only OK to want it all, it's also very possible!

The two now walk together through life and feel like they can face any challenge it has to offer.David has released a CD, and companion book, called LIONHEART; an inspiring story of love, forgiveness, and the power of music.

This Valentine's Day podcast episode is all about The Heart. Specifically, about the Healing Heart... and even more specifically, how art can be a soothing balm for an aching heart.My guest, Elizabeth St. Hilaire, is a successful artist, teacher, author and innovator. I stumbled onto her work when I was grieving deeply, and found submerging myself into the art techniques she developed (and went on to share with the world,) had an immensely therapeutic and transformative effect. Elizabeth's own heart is made of gold, and she and I have become good friends. I'm so happy that she agreed to join me on LOVE SOMEONE to encourage anyone and everyone to give art and creativity another try. If you've experienced a loss and/or find yourself in place of vulnerability, or if you're the type to proclaim that you don't have any talent or aren't creative... this episode is for you. Give us a listen. ~ Delilah Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's a wonderful organization in the Chicago area called Santa's Volunteers, who generously enable hundred of families (nearly 1000!) to celebrate the holidays with food, gifts, and the basic necessities of a cold mid-western winter. John Churchill is the chairman of the board, and he met with me at the Museum of Radio Broadcasting to tell me all about this amazing group of glad tidings. Another guy dropped in also - he was wearing a fuzzy red suit, trimmed in fur. He had a snowy white beard, rosy red cheeks, eyes that twinkled, and lots of ho ho holiday spirit! 4 of my kids joined us too - won't you? It's Christmas and we are feeling The Spirit here on LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah!

On today's episode of LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah, I'm celebrating this season of gratitude with you! The most common question I'm asked, is how I've continued to do what I do for all the years I've been doing it? (Radio that is!) And the answer is this - because of the amazing stories my listeners share with me, and the thread of gratitude that seems to run through them all. Life is a stormy adventure to be sure, but those that not only survive, but thrive, have one thing in common - an attitude of gratitude. And these are the folks that inspire me day after day, to get up, to do my radio program, to care for my family, and to LIVE! Live to the fullest, grateful for all I've ever experienced, all the experiences yet to come, and holding nothing back... Have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving my friends, I am so very grateful for all of you. ~ Delilah Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
