This is an encore episode of Dear Mattie, which originally aired in 2015.  I had to repost again because of my friend and actor, Sharon Pierre-Louis.  You might have seen Sharon on Switched At Birth, and I believe she personifies the resilience and beauty of her homeland, Haiti. If you listen to Sharon's story and feel her heart, you can't see anything but love, joy, and compassion.  All traits that I believe originated from much of her experience in Haiti. Find Sharon on Instagram and...

Mattie opens the show with his bff Jake Anthony, and they discuss Jake's new show The View Upstairs. Listener questions include: My best friend gave me some truthtalk but was it too tough?

Kate Casey from Reality Life is well...real.  She's a no BS kinda gal.

Loved having Sandy on. I think dating in mid-life is relevant to so many people. But so many of us feel like we are the only one going through it. What I love about Sandy is that through her work--whether it's her Podcast, Tedx Talk, or with clients--she has BEEN THROUGH it as well. And she shares her story to make us feel like we aren't the only ones who are totally disenchanted with Tinder. Sandy's the real deal, y'all. Here are all things Sandy:Facebook group: Your Last First...

Joel Capperella is maybe one of the kindest people I know. That's why I dig his podcast LEADING MATTERS, so so so very much. And before you think it's another podcast about business and entrepreneurship, Joel's conversations are about, I think, the REAL reasons we don't start our dreams...doubt, fear, etc. Basically just insert the emotional root of what is holding you back in life, and that's what Joel's about...getting to the heart of you so you can see how it's reflected in your business...
