  • Fashion Week’s Hidden Impact: Style, Posture, and Health

    Fashion Week’s Hidden Impact: Style, Posture, and Health
    Dec 21 2025
    Fashion Week may spotlight bold heels, sculpted silhouettes, and statement accessories—but once the runway lights fade, a deeper question remains: what are these trends doing to our bodies? Dr. Sherry McAllister, president of the Foundation for Chiropractic Progress and author of Adjusted Reality: Supercharge Your Whole-Being for Optimal Living and Longevity, brings more than 25 years of clinical expertise to the conversation. After attending Fashion Week this year, Dr. McAllister shares eye-opening insights on how fashion choices—on the runway and in everyday life—affect posture, spinal alignment, breathing, and long-term health. From how high heels can dramatically increase spinal load, to the hidden strain caused by handbags and tight clothing, she explains how small, intentional adjustments can help anyone move with greater ease, confidence, and longevity. Blending real-world observations from conversations with New Yorkers during Fashion Week with practical, science-backed guidance, Dr. McAllister offers a fresh perspective at the intersection of style, whole-being health, and presence—proving that looking good doesn’t have to come at the cost of feeling good.

  • From Hollywood to Storytime: Veteran Reality TV Producer Rusty Austin

    From Hollywood to Storytime: Veteran Reality TV Producer Rusty Austin
    Dec 21 2025
    After 35 years behind the scenes of some of television’s most iconic reality shows, Rusty Austin has traded cameras for crayons—and the result is pure magic for young readers. Drawing on decades of storytelling experience from top-rated series like Hell’s Kitchen, Survivor, Big Brother, COPS, and Nanny 911, Austin now creates illustrated children’s books that blend playful poetry, fascinating animal facts, and hands-on creativity. Since retiring from Hollywood in 2018, Austin has published six books, including four children’s titles that encourage curiosity, learning, and artistic expression. His latest release, An Awesome Bird, The Pelican, features illustrations created entirely by local middle school students, giving kids the rare chance to see their own artwork inside a published book. Each poem introduces young readers to animals from around the world—what they eat, where they live, and even fun scientific concepts like echolocation and nictitating membranes—without ever feeling like a lesson. Beloved by parents, grandparents, and educators alike, Austin’s books include interactive DIY sections that invite children to draw, color, write, and sign their own pages—turning reading into a shared creative experience. His mission is simple but powerful: help kids laugh, learn, and feel confident following their curiosity. Rusty Austin is available for interviews to discuss his Hollywood journey, his transition to children’s literature, and how poetry, education, and community collaboration can inspire the next generation of artists, thinkers, and storytellers.

  • From Doom Scrolling to Faith Scrolling: Blessn App

    From Doom Scrolling to Faith Scrolling: Blessn App
    Dec 18 2025
    Gerald Jones and Kevin Clark's friendship goes back over 20 years, to the night they first met backstage at the Academy Awards. Their bond grew through creativity, shared values, and a deep desire to make a difference. Together, they later won an Emmy Award for a public service announcement addressing school gun violence - a project that reflected their heart for inspiring hope and protecting the next generation.Beyond their work in media, Gerald and Kevin have also been long-time business partners supporting individuals with developmental disabilities, running programs focused on empowerment and compassion. This commitment to community is woven into everything they do - and it became the foundation of Blessn.

    The story of Blessn began in March 2023, when Gerald Jones became sick of doom scrolling on social media, and found himself bummed out after every TikTok session. It occurred to him that maybe there was a better way. There should be a short form video social media that uplifted and encouraged instead. He thought it would be better to faith scroll instead of doom scroll. He called his business partner, Kevin Clark, who was feeling the exact same way. They decided to create something themselves, that uplifted people about the world and each other. Something that encouraged connectedness.

    Over the next several years, the two friends poured their faith, creativity, and personal savings into developing the Blessn app, testing every detail to make sure it felt safe, uplifting, and positive. Their mission is to shift the culture of social media and to make it a place where kindness, faith, and encouragement are celebrated, not drowned out by negativity.
    At its heart, Blessn is more than an app - it’s a movement. A space where users can share uplifting videos, connect with others who believe in goodness, and replace endless “doom scrolling” with “faith scrolling.” Gerald and Kevin believe that positive scrolling has the power to change hearts, strengthen communities, and remind people that light always wins over darkness.

  • Heat & Hope: How Faith Is Saving Lives in Ukraine’s Darkest Winter | Michael Johnson

    Heat & Hope: How Faith Is Saving Lives in Ukraine’s Darkest Winter | Michael Johnson
    Dec 9 2025
    In this powerful episode, we sit down with Michael Johnson, President of the Slavic Gospel Association, to discuss the escalating humanitarian crisis in Ukraine as families face freezing temperatures, widespread power outages, and nonstop uncertainty.

    With over 40% of Ukraine’s power infrastructure destroyed, millions are struggling to survive without consistent heat or electricity. Through the Heat and Hope campaign, Slavic Gospel Association is delivering firewood, generators, blankets, and life-saving support—often through pastors risking their lives near the frontlines.

    Michael shares:

    What daily life looks like for families surviving without heat
    How local churches have become emergency warming centers
    Why faith is more than belief—it’s action in moments like this
    How everyday people can make a real-world impact right now

    This is a story about leadership under pressure, courage in the face of danger, and how hope survives—even in the coldest places on earth.

  • Building Bridges of Care: A Conversation with Adrien Lewis of CarePortal

    Building Bridges of Care: A Conversation with Adrien Lewis of CarePortal
    Nov 23 2025
    Founder & President

    Adrien began his career in business development, spending a decade working across healthcare, technology, and education. But in 2007, a mission trip to Haiti with his wife, Cynthia, shifted everything. The experience ignited a deeper calling and opened his eyes to the impact of showing up for vulnerable children.

    For the next three years, Adrien volunteered with The Global Orphan Project, gaining firsthand insight into how powerful simple connections can be in a child’s life. In 2010, he felt a clear prompting from God to step away from the business world and devote himself fully to advocating for orphaned and abandoned children.

    That calling led him and his family into foster care and adoption—and eventually inspired the creation of CarePortal, a Care-Sharing technology that mobilizes local communities to respond to the needs of children and families in crisis. Today, CarePortal is transforming lives through meaningful, real-time connections built on compassion, action, and faith.
