Ryan WilliamsonRyan Williamson, MD | Board-Certified Neurologist | Navy Veteran | Owner and Founder of Transcend HealthMy life has been shaped by early loss and tragedy, which led me to pursue a career in medicine to better help others relieve suffering. In the early years of my clinical practice, I was able to sharpen my skills in the military by working with sailors and Marines, including special forces, to elevate their performance on and off the battlefield. This was incredibly gratifying, however after returning to civilian medicine, I realized how many people suffered needlessly from preventable, chronic disease that ultimately shortened their lives. This led me to focus on a practical, evidence-based approach to disease prevention and to writing my first book, The Incredible Brain. Two days after committing to that path, my lifelong best friend died completely unexpectedly. Through yet another tragedy, I deeply questioned my existence, meaning, and purpose. After that reflection, I came to the realization that I have been put here to help more people and have since dedicated my life to helping others live longer, healthier, more impactful lives. As part of that mission, I am looking to share this information with as many people as possible, which includes your audience, and why I would be honored to be a guest on your show.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

David DeightonArtists Wear Many Hats: father, educator, and creative dedicated to active listening and bridging societal divides—using my work as a catalyst for transformative healingI am an artist, educator, a father, world traveler, French and American bi-national, political activist working on transformational experiences.I am motivated by engaging strangers in the spirit on connection. I'm focused on the taboo subject of politics but that word can be exchanged for a multitude of taboo subjects. I don't talk politics rather it's about healing community, bridging divides, transformation and exploring artistic expression.For the last 6 years I have been actively engaging with strangers in public spaces, asking them to talk to their political opponents, listen to them and find commonalities. So far all has gone well without confrontation.I've used a ton of gimmicks to invite strangers to speak to their political "enemies". I use interviews, wacky art installations, repurposed books and a bunch of my time to get people to reconcile their broken relationships and break down barriers with strangers. I try to get them to talk about the great taboo subject of politics and it works.I wish to share what I have discovered and also share stories from my hundreds of encounters, my multiple travels around the World and insights into humanity.I will invite your listeners to listen, actively listen to their political opposites. It's in listening that bridges can be built that strengthen the structures of our communities . We all have this solution at our disposal and my invitation will be to discuss it while also sharing stories from many of my offbeat experiences.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
