Ep 716: Should I Stay Or Should I Go with Kate Anthony
I'm excited to welcome Kate Anthony to the show today, "America's top divorce coach." Kate Anthony, author, critically acclaimed podcast host, and high conflict divorce coach, is not afraid to initiate tough conversations about relationships, domestic violence, and the cultural implications of our patriarchal society. In her book, The D Word: Making the Ultimate Decision About Your Marriage, Kate dives deeply into the importance of self-work and the cultural understanding of marriage in order to sustain healthy interpersonal relationships. She serves clients across the globe through her private coaching, group programs, and her wildly popular online program,“Should I Stay or Should I Go.” Kate equips her clients with the tools they need to identify abusive relationships, and feel empowered to make decisions for themselves and their children while feeling validated and supported. Her number-one-ranked podcast, The Divorce Survival Guide Podcast, recommended by the New York Times, has reached over three million downloads and Kate has been featured as an expert in The New York Times, Forbes, Newsweek, and Pure Wow. Kate is a survivor of domestic abuse herself, and overcame many of her own challenges with navigating divorce with a child to consider. She believes that in order to uncover the root of marital issues we must look deeply at the patriarchal systems that underpin cis-hetero relationships in the 21st century. Kate understands how these systems affect men’s behavior, marriage, violence in America and even divorce legislation in the US. This has inspired Kate’s involvement with family court reform through organizations such as the National Safe Parents Organization (NSPO) and her advisory board membership with the Divorce Coalition. We discuss navigating toxic relationships, recognizing the signs of abuse, and empowering women to make the difficult decision of whether to stay or go. This is such an important topic that I know so many of our listeners are grappling with. Let's jump right in.

During his career he was a head coach for two seasons. LeBeau was enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2010 after his playing career. To most NFL fans, Dick LeBeau is known as a football lifer, Pro Football Hall of Fame member, and mastermind behind the revolutionary zone blitz defense. But to Pittsburgh Steelers fans, LeBeau is the beloved defensive coaching genius who helped lead the Steelers to their last two championships – Super Bowl XL in 2005 and Super Bowl XLIII in 2008 – crafting a devastating 3-4 defensive scheme that came to define a treasured era of football in Pittsburgh. In Legendary, LeBeau along with veteran Steelers’ scribes Scott Brown and George Von Benko will revisit that unforgettably dominant 2008 defensive unit, one of the most feared and successful in the modern NFL landscape.

This fond look back at the latest golden era for the Steelers also includes recollections from the legends on defense who helped bring LeBeau’s ground-breaking vision to life, from Hall of Fame safety Troy Polamalu to 2008 NFL Defensive Player of the Year James Harrison to unheralded but essential linebacker James Farrior, and many more who count LeBeau as one of the most admired and brilliant coaches in league history.

Topics Discussed: · Filmmaking · Childhood · Adventure · Family · Faith · Perseverance · Audition · Filming · Challenges · Stallone Quotes from the show: · "I'm excited because, you know, I'm, first off, I'm, you know, filmmaker, and being an artist isn't easy, and it's pretty amazing to have a movie opening up nationwide across the country." · "I was really interested in this idea of a kid alone in the woods, barefoot, because I related to my own childhood experiences." · "I always told the crew when we're making this movie, this is ultimately a movie about a boy who just wants a hug from his dad." · "This film is about when you're up against the odds. What do you pull from? And sometimes you pull from your love of family. · You pull from your own inner fortitude, whatever. But oftentimes you need something higher than yourself, and that can be your faith, that can be God, that can be whatever it is that you cling on to." · I'm a long distance runner. I do like, 50 Ks, and I've done 100k yet. But I, you know, I run 10 miles at least once a week, so I have the endurance already built up on me." · We even climbed the mountain again after the making of the movie to get asphalt footage of the storm on the mountain.
