Episode Description
Kathryn interviews award-winning author Mark Matousek on his book “Ethical Wisdom for Friends: How to Navigate Life’s Most Complicated, Curious, and Common Relationship Dilemmas”. Recognizing that relationships with friends are vital to our health and happiness, Matousek draws on personal experience, interviews, and letters from readers to refine the "do's and don'ts" of friendship. A featured blogger for The Huffington Post and Psychology Today, Matousek's work has appeared in The New Yorker, AARP, and O: The Oprah Magazine. Kathryn also interviews Program Manager Melanie A. Gideon and SPC Joseph Paulk from UCLA’s Operation Mend, offering returning military personnel with severe facial and other medical injuries access to the nation's top plastic and reconstructive surgeons. Established in 2007, Operation Mend combines the best military resources with the skills of UCLA Health System, Brooke Army Medical Center (BAMC), and the VA-Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System.
