Guest, Emily Graham
As far back as she can remember, Emily has been interested in human behavior and understanding people’s actions, hearts, and inner worlds. As a teen, her interest in the human experience grew; her boyfriend’s mother was diagnosed with lung cancer and, within three months, died. This personal experience with illness, loss, grief, and finally, death hugely impacted her and propelled her to embrace life and ask questions; Why are we here? What is our purpose? How can we make a more meaningful contribution in our lifetime? What happens when we die? Emily’s exploration started young and continues.
Emily focused her Master’s in Social Work education on transformative education. As a therapist she believes wholeheartedly that you can’t give away something you don’t have and comes from the perspective that if she hasn’t tried something, she wouldn’t ask or guide her clients to do so. She believes you must understand practices by having gone through them yourself.
In her free time, Emily enjoys learning new things. She spends most of her free time on creative outlets, specifically songwriting and anything related to art. She also loves the outdoors, traveling, art, music, fashion, her family, her friends, and her 2 cats.

Life Changes Show
Come and join the conversation about what's going on and what we can do together about it, with it, and for it. We have the choice, we have the power. We can do magic if we just believe!
A show about the changes going on in us, to us, around us, and because of us. Therefore, it's technically a show about "Everything," only with a how to make it better, see it better, be better.
In the show, there is talk about, and with, people who have either been through major changes, are helping others with major changes, or people who are changing the world for the better in a major way.
The show is a one-hour talk show format with a monologue by the host, a 30 minute interview with a guest of note, capped by a "Producer's Wrap" segment, in which Filippo and Co-Host Mark Laisure, and sometimes surprise guests, bring it all home for the listeners in a sometimes humorous and sometimes touching, but always entertaining conversation.
