Life after Loss

In 1999, two young Franciscan University students, Aaron Land and Brian Muha, were abducted from their off-campus house and killed. Aaron's mother, Kathleen O'Hara joins us to talk about her life since the tragedy. She is a psychotherapist in private practice in Philadelphia, and will speak about the role of forgiveness, and the process of healing.

Drive and Ambition

Listen via Real Audio
Cleopatra had it, so did Napoleon, Michelangelo and Edison: Ambition can drive people to accomplish master pieces, or to make priceless discoveries. It can also drive people insane, and cause them to bring pain and suffering to others. Dr. Gottlieb will discuss ambition with Dr. Anne Skleder and James Champy. Skleder is professor of psychology at Alvernia College in Reading, PA, Champy is the author of "The Arc of Ambition." They'll explore how ambitious people are perceived in our society, how ambition differs in men and women, and when ambition becomes an obsession.

Managing your Health

Listen via Real Audio
Americans used to have family doctors who knew their medical history. Today, many people feel like their doctors don't spend enough time with them, or they are not being told about all their options. We will discuss taking charge of your own health care with Dr. Marie Savard, she is the author of "How To Save Your Own Life." Later on the show, we'll discuss Sexuality and Vitality with Dr. Lana Holstein, author of "How To Have Magnificent Sex."

 

3/26/01
Fatherhood

Many politicians have focused on so-called "Dead-Beat Dads" recently, trying to find ways to ensure that fathers take their financial responsibilities seriously. Yet there are many experts who argue that fathers don't have enough rights, and that our society does not foster responsible fatherhood. Dr. Dan Gottlieb's guest is Dr. Warren Farrell, he is the author of "Father and Child Reunion: How to Bring the Dads We Need to the Children We Love." We will also hear about a workshop for young fathers, and we'll be joined by a local man who has experienced fatherhood in a very different way.
