The Debbie Nigro Show

As heard on The Debbie Nigro Show Sometimes it really helps to just talk to other caring people about whatever you’re going through. Now there’s a place where you can. I had a talk with Scott Kelsey, the incredibly resilient Founder & CEO of Shareapy—about his groundbreaking wellness platform born from personal tragedy and built to foster connection, healing, and personal growth. After a life-altering fall down a staircase left him with a traumatic brain injury, Scott found himself forced to hit pause—and reflect. "I had to isolate, be in a dark room, and let my brain...

As heard on The Debbie Nigro Show There's a hot new real estate migration trend picking up steam among Northeasterners and former Floridians: they’re becoming “Halfbacks”—people who moved to Florida, found it a little too much (too hot, too humid, too everything), and are now settling halfway back up the East Coast. Their happy medium? Coastal North Carolina. On The Debbie Nigro Show, I got the inside scoop from Jason Faulkner, General Manager of Kingfish Bay Development in Calabash, NC—one of the fastest-growing destinations for these lifestyle-minded movers that's just minutes...

This story of mind-blowing resilience is a wake-up call for anyone feeling stuck, sidelined, or afraid to bounce back. On a recent episode of The Debbie Nigro Show, I had the joy of speaking with global wellness pioneer Dan Metcalf—international performer turned brain-injury survivor, Olympic coach, and now CEO of Total Balance Company and Born Superhuman.   Hard to believe this superhuman got in touch with me to see if I was interested in uncovering how we could inspire listeners together.  Here’s what I read when I opened his blind email to me.

 If you thought lobster rolls were just food, think again. They're fashion now, too! On The Debbie Nigro Show, Debbie caught up with her “sister from another mother,” Andrea Anthony — the iconic entrepreneur behind Lunch Lobster Roll in Amagansett and Southampton — to talk lobster love, restaurant buzz, and lobster pajamas (yes, really). I try and track the latest trends and surprisingly discovered ‘Lobster Fashion’ was trending? Wow, I was seriously behind the lobster claw curve on this one! Then I searched online to see what I could find out and came upon endless items of...

Robin started his career as a singer, sharing stages with Marvin Gaye, Tina Turner, James Brown, The Supremes, and more. He was part of the legendary Dick Clark Caravan of Stars, toured with iconic names, and was even managed by Shelly Berger (yep, the longtime manager of The Temptations). But...

Hey friends, Debbie Nigro here—and yes, I was literally clapping for collagen on the air. I’ve officially joined the collagen revolution thanks to NativePath, and I feel GOOD about it.  So good, I invited their brilliant co-founder, Dr. Chad Walding, on The Debbie Nigro Show to spill the truth about this stuff that’s got my knees, skin, hair, and even my outlook bouncing back. Here’s the scoop from our chat… Collagen Is the Missing Link According to Dr. Chad, our ancestors used to get collagen naturally from eating “nose to tail.” But today? We’re...

I did it! I took a chance, followed my gut, and launched something brand new. I told myself what I always tell you guys…Risk It! or Regret It!

Introducing my brand-new short-form syndicated radio feature:
“Keeping the ‘Live’ in Alive! with Debbie Nigro”
Proudly sponsored by NativePath Collagen — the stuff that’s got me hiking again, baby!

For the past 6 months, I’ve been secretly developing this new ‘thing’’. Figuring out what it should be, how it should sound, and who would be open enough to collaborate with me.

 

Why this, why now?

Lately, I’ve found myself diving into wellness like never before. Not just for fun (though some of it is hilarious), but because my biological clock feels more like a ticking time bomb these days.

I’m trying to maximize my remaining time on this planet as are many other people I know.

I’m constantly researching and talking about mental wellness, physical wellness, nutrition, longevity, and all the weird and wonderful science behind staying vibrant and ALIVE. And sharing it all on my “Wellness Wednesday” segments of The Debbie Nigro Show just wasn’t enough anymore.

So, I created this new feature — fast-moving, funny, and full of fascinating wellness info — to syndicate nationwide.

AND I’m testing it out in real time. 

 

The Launch 🚀

On Monday, April 7th, I debuted the first of my four “Keeping the ‘Live’ in Alive! with Debbie Nigro” features each which will air 1x a day for 7 days across multiple network shows on the Red Apple Audio Network and its Flagship Station WABC Radio NY. The feature gets personally introduced by high-profile hosts — which, I admit, after listening in from the oustide - gave me a huge kick! (So did all the random high-five texts I got from friends who happened to catch it on-air!)

Enter: NativePath Collagen.
This best-in-class wellness brand stepped up as my first sponsor. And I’m genuinely grateful — not just because they’re backing me, but because their product really works. (More on that below…)

Ready to hear the very first radio feature?

Take a listen and PUHHHLEASE BUY THE COLLAGEN!

It works! and it helps support my good work!

*******************************************************

OK Here’s the transcript of Feature #1

 

Announcer:

Now here’s “Keeping the ‘Live’ in Alive! with Debbie Nigro” sponsored by NativePath Collagen.


Debbie:

Ever wake up one day and feel like you aged overnight?

You're not imagining it. You did. (lol)

Scientists have now confirmed what we've all suspected. We age in bursts, not slowly, not gradually, but in molecular surprise parties, just without the balloons.

According to research in the Journal of Nature Aging, we hit two major aging jumps, one around 44, another around 60.

That's when your body suddenly goes, Surprise! Here's some wrinkles, and here's maybe a weird pain in your knee.

Researchers followed 108 people for years looking at their DNA, their proteins, even their gut microbiomes. And they found most molecules in the body change in big, accelerated shifts at those exact ages.

In our 40s, fat and muscle start to shift. In our 60s, we start losing more muscle and the risk for things like heart disease and diabetes spikes. Okay, there's good news. Now that we know this, science can help us catch problems earlier and keep us healthier longer. So, if you're 43 or 59, what I would do is… hydrate, stretch, and hang on. I'm Debbie Nigro.

 

LIVE ENDORSEMENT FOR NATIVEPATH COLLAGEN

Debbie:

I always joke that I'm delusionally young and outrageously fun.

Truth is, I'm blowing a body part a week over here. No joke.

Stopped mid-hike, limped out of the woods alone while my boyfriend kept going because my knee was killing me.

I thought about collagen, and I caught an old friend in a Native Path collagen ad raving about how her knees felt better. She had more energy, her hair, her nails, her skin looked amazing.

So, I got some, started putting it in my coffee every day.

No taste, no lumps.

Now I'm back, walking strong, full of energy.
