Host Laura Reid welcomes bestselling author, business consultant, and spiritual practitioner Arliss Dudley-Cash to the show for a deep dive into Arliss’ journey from neuroscience and forensics through a severe chronic illness diagnosis and into spirituality. Arliss shares the horror of having her life drastically altered by her diagnosis and how she released her anger to find a more peaceful way forward. Along the way, she became a powerful public speaker with a host of experiences and advice to offer listeners.

Laura’s Killer 13 questions reveal Arliss’ knowledge about the colors of our brain, how she’d survive on a desert island, and why prayer is more powerful than neuroscience in stressful moments. When Arliss describes her journey through overworking into her devastating chronic illness diagnosis, she demonstrates the honesty, self-acceptance, and hope that define how she moves through the world now. From her horrifying panic attack in the middle of a public speech to her very practical advice for all speakers on how to prepare to face an audience, this interview offers insight, wisdom, and a general sense Arliss’ “badassery”, to quote Laura.
