"The Long Baby Boom: An Optomistic Vision for a Graying Generation"
with author Jeff Goldsmith
Wednesday evening I have the pleasure of welcoming Jeff Goldsmith, author of The Long Baby Boom: An Optomistic Vision for a Graying Generation to Dot to Dot. Regardless of age, but especially for those of us who are called "Baby Boomers" this conversation will no doubt be an eye opening, serious and inspiring one. One of my mottos is, "If you don't like the way something is......change it." That goes along with the old adage, "Where there's a will, there's a way."
This next year will offer ALL OF US many opportunities to become involved in changing or helping to change what is broken about our country and our world. This is clearly not a time for doubt or pessimism. I hope you'll join me.

"Codependence and the Power of Detachment: How to Set Boundaries and Make Your Own Life Your Own"
Come join Host Catherine Bradford, her Inner Circle, and author Karen Casey as she takes us through the steps of detachment, admitting our need to live our lives in fear of others' judgment and as if we can control them, surrending outcome, forgiving and focusing our attention on what works. When we give up judging others, we become accountable for our own behavior and let others - spouse, family, coworkers, be accountable for themselves. The power of detachment is a power anyone can claim. It's the power of sanity, of peace, of finding our own inner strength.

"Feeling Safe in Today's World"
Years ago Bob Dylan wrote, "For the times, they are a-changin'." I wonder what he must be writing about today's world. For the times, they are a-changin' indeed! How many of us look around at the serious issues facing the world today and feel safe? How often do you shake your own head, wondering and worrying just what will your future. Facing such important and serious topics call for serious and important conversations. Never before have we been called into positive action, asked to unite through our common goals of resolving problems facing everyone, everywhere, than now.
Come join host Catherine Bradford, as she welcomes author and humanitarian Steve Ryals, (Drunk with Wonder: Awakening to the God Within") as along with the inner circle, they explore what happens when we don't feel safe, and what we can do to reestablish this important state of being.

Dot to Dot presents: Health and Healing: In Your Own Hands: Part Two
Change is a necessary and vital part of life. Change can create a lack of balance and also restore it. The power behind change is something to which we all have access. You are the beginning of any change. What you see, feel, and choose to believe is the center of everything.
For years now I have had the pleasure of interviewing authors and guests from all over the world who have helped demonstrate changes not only in how we heal but also what creates the best possible scenario for healing. As we change as individuals, so does the world in which we live. As we heal ourselves, in turn we heal our world.
Since the beginning of time, healing has been a part of life on earth; the Earth herself in a constant state of rebalancing, attempting to heal whatever changes have been brought about, some by mankind. Our own beliefs and understanding about healing changes constantly. New thoughts giving rise to new fields in healing are emerging each and every day. Wise and ancient traditions are re emerging, reminding us of truths that have always been.
I am excited and honored to welcome Dr. Robin Kelly to our special two part show, entitled, “Health and Healing; In Your Own Hands.” Dr. Kelly was born, raised and educated in England in traditional Western medicine. Dr. Kelly’s own journey in healing led him into the exploration of the connection between body, mind and spirit. In his book, “The Human Antenna, Reading the language of the Universe in the songs of our cells”, Dr. Kelly reveals to us a new paradigm for healing in today’s world. Many years ago Dr. Kelly moved to live in New Zealand, where he continues to live and practice healing today. His own professional model changed as he embraced and incorporated the principles of healing found in acupuncture, energy psychology and many other numerous ways of bringing soul into medicine. I can think of no better person with whom to explore the changes occurring in healing modalities today, than Dr. Robin Kelly.

"2012: The End?" with mystic,, spiritual teacher, composer and author, David Lewis
2012 is a date many dread, others eagerly await. It marks the end of the ancient Mayan calendar. Some prophesy it's the end of the world. Other's that it's a wormhole in time, one that will transport us into the golden age of higher consciousness. Still others say it's just another date.
So who's right? And is there anything we can do besides wait four years to find out? David Lewis, founder of the Hearts Center and a messanger for the ascended masters, will tell us why it's important to be aware of all the predicitons and prophecies, from indigenous prophecies of great upheaval to NASA's prediciton that the sun will reverse its magnetic poles at that time - and the five things they must do before 2012, come what may.

"Loosing our 'selves'"
This Wednesday nights Dot to Dot will be a very important conversation, and probably geared toward parents, and women in general. My guest for this show will be Taylor Wilshire, author of 'The Book of Mom'. Taylors novel is an accounting of her own personal life, leaving the high position of a Fortune 500 company, huge salery, to be an At Home Mome after the birth of her first son. She approached her new role with a vengence, and had a second son several years later. Somewhere after the birth of son #2 she called her best friend, grieving, scared and lost. 'Where am I', 'Who am I'......and 'I hate my husband'. Sound familiar? This is not an isolated event, or a one time, sometimes happens scenario. This is real life, that happens to MOST women who have children and find themselves lost in the surging waters of parenting. Most of us have been there, or are still balancing the most important roles of our lives, 'Doing it all for others' while 'trying to save our selves'.
Please join me this week. If you know of anyone who is struggling or has words of wisdom and advice, please let them know they too are welcome to join in the conversation. Together, one Dot at a time, we can join together to support, understand, and create peace of mind and happiness for all.

Jeff Brown, author of "Soul Shaping: Adventures in Self-Creation"
Once a criminal attorney, Jeff Brown was called to a more heartfelt path. In his book 'Soul Shaping', Jeff shows us a new and distinctly human paradigm for expanding our consciousness: Ascending with both feet on the ground. This paradigm is rooted in the destiny of our daily lives, and makes no distinction between our spiritual quest and our emotional life.Our feelings, unresolved issues and life experiences, are the grist for the soul mill that takes us higher. Rather than looking for the answers outside our ourselves, we choose to look inside, in our often ignored bodies of wisdom.
