Self-Taught Literacy and The Stress Threat

Kathryn interviews Travis Hugh Culley, author of “A Comedy & A Tragedy: A Memoir of Learning How to Read and Write”. Growing up Culley faked his way through homework and tests by pretending to know how to read. An audition for an acting program sent Culley on an unlikely path toward literacy, and once his parents separated and his grades fell, he ran away from home turning to writing and words for strength. This powerful memoir is a work of love, of friendship and of confidence in one young scholar’s infinite belief in language. Kathryn also interviews America’s leading stress expert Pete Sulack PhD, author of “Unhealthy Anonymous: Exposing the Greatest Threat to Your Health and Happiness”. Cardiovascular disease, cancer, dementia, auto-immune deficiencies, autism or any number of other disorders all have their roots in how we respond to stress. “Unhealthy Anonymous” applies Dr. Sulack’s experiences helping over a million patients adapt to and recover from stress.
