The bonus is that together they also give priceless guidance on life and marriage. You can binge listen all of the past episodes and never get tired of it.” MARC ASHTON CEO of the Foundation for Blind Children R E C O M M E N D S : Invisibilia; npr.org/podcasts/510307/invisibilia H I S T A K E “ Invisibilia is an NPR radio show and podcast that describes life that we cannot see or touch: behaviors, thoughts, human nature, etc. In 2015, I listened to a podcast called ‘How to Become Batman,’ which told several stories about how people with visual impairment learn to be blind. They don’t learn how to live with blindness; rather, those around teach them to be blind by the way they are treated. The storytelling was simple, unexpected and true. Even in my world of raising a blind son and devoting my career to the world of vision loss, Invisibilia brought a voice to a story I had in my heart for two decades. Listening to Invisibilia always makes me say, ‘Hmmm. Interesting.’” CATHERINE ANAYA Media personality, host of MHGTV and founder of Sisterhood of Super Women R E C O M M E N D S : The Women’s Eye; thewomenseye.com H E R T A K E “I love this podcast because it celebrates women with passion, grit and determination to change the world. I’m a contributing host, so I’m able to help curate deep, empowering and inspirational conversations with women who are making a difference every day. Many of the women I’ve featured are from right here in the Valley, which is full of passionate and philanthropic women who are all about making our community a better place for everyone. They share insight into their life journeys, their successes and how others can become changemakers.” Podcasts Worth a Listen 12 FRONTDOORS MEDIA | JUNE 2019 BOOKMARKED {what are you reading}

Add the fear of failure and you can become frozen. Rachel Hollis talks about why carrying our fear keeps us from progressing and how it’s OK to not be perfect when we are following our passion or goals. We become more obsessed with the goal and not with the process — we need to love the process to get to our goals. Don’t waste today thinking ‘some day’ in order to become the person you are to be. Fall in love with the process; it will take away the fear, which will allow us to reach our goals.” ANDY K R AMER PETERSEN President & CEO of Banner Health Foundation and Banner Alzheimer’s Foundation R E C O M M E N D S : Bedside Stories; available on iTunes , Spotify and Anchor H I S T A K E “This is Banner Health’s own podcast, highlighting some of the most captivating and emotionally compelling personal experiences that take place behind the scenes in healthcare.
