You’ll recognize Julie Chen Moonves from her starring role on CBS’ Big Brother and The Talk, but did you know that Julie just published a moving, deeply personal audiobook about her spiritual awakening called, “But First, God.” This week on the show Julie tells me what it was like being pushed out as the moderator of “The Talk,” the painful betrayal she felt, and how that betrayal led her to rediscover her faith. That deep faith has completely changed the direction of her life and came with some tough personal reflection. You don’t want to miss this inspiring conversation with Julie Chen Moonves.  Here's my favorite quote from this episode: My work and my career. That was my false idol that I prayed to.
