Saleha Mohsin - host of Bloomberg podcast BIG TAKE: DC

Of the 1.3 million active-duty service members in the US military, only a tiny fraction are selected as “operators.” Shannon Kent was one of the first women to serve at this level and was widely recognized as one of the best.

Shannon served as a Navy cryptologic technician, responsible for signals intelligence and electronic warfare, but her proficiency with language set her apart. She was assigned to a unit so secretive that its name can’t even be printed here, where she worked clandestinely to hunt the most wanted terrorists in the world.

Send Me is Shannon’s heroic life story, revealing the truth of both her work and the challenges she faced while trying to raise a family with her husband Joe, himself a Special Forces soldier. He and Shannon met in a war zone, their love forged during a special operations training course, their dedication spanning multiple combat deployments and the birth of their two boys.

It is the legacy of an extraordinary woman who rose to the apex of the military, working with the most elite forces in the world, lifting the veil from the life of a Special Forces family to share their duty, sacrifice, and humanity.

Send Me: The True Story of a Mother at War

Pre-order Now, official release June 10th

Soulmate Dog tells the brave, moving story of Michelle Slater’s extraordinary relationship with her German Shepherd, Brady. Narrated by Alison Larkin in an easy-to-listen-to, conversational style, it “charts the nature of love and the inevitability of loss that accompanies it,” while showcasing the telepathic language that can exist between dogs and humans.

In this brave, beautiful book, the author also sheds light on the important field of integrative veterinary medicine.

Cover Design by: Lisa Cavender

Audiobook available for $25. A portion of the profits from the sale of this audiobook will go to The Brady Scholarship, supporting training and wider availability for holistic veterinary care.

Michelle Slater is a scholar of comparative literature and president of the educational nonprofit Mayapple Center for the Arts and Humanities in Connecticut. She holds a Ph.D. in French literature from Johns Hopkins University.

Her long battle with and recovery from late-stage neurological Lyme disease served as the genesis for this book. Debilitated by the disease to the extent that she was no longer able to teach at her university or perform simple tasks like driving and reading, Slater spent several years pursuing every known treatment, from aggressive allopathic methods to holistic remedies. When all failed to deliver recovery, she discovered Dr. Sergey Filonov’s dry fasting program and spent two months in Siberia under his care. She recovered completely from Lyme disease, regaining her memory and returning to researching, writing, hiking, and running.

Since 2017, she has not experienced a single symptom.

Michelle B. Slater, Ph.D. - Soulmate Dog

Join us for a powerful conversation with award-winning journalist and author Warren Kozak, as he shares his deeply personal story of loss, grief, and healing. Warren's new book, 'Waving Goodbye: Life After Loss', offers a compassionate roadmap for men navigating the complexities of loss, and finding light in the darkness. In this episode, Warren shares his journey, from the initial shock of separation to the slow emergence of hope, and offers practical guidance and solace for those who may be struggling with loss. Don't miss this important conversation about the often-hidden pain of grief, and the power of resilience and healing.

Bio

Warren Kozak was born in Milwaukee Wisconsin in 1951, the third of four children. He was educated in the public schools there and attended the University of Wisconsin – Madison, where he graduated in 1973 with a degree in Political Science.

“I think my mid-western upbringing in the 1950s and ‘60s, gave me a solid and positive guide for the rest of my life.”

When he was eight years old, he discovered television network news (probably while looking for cartoons) and was mesmerized by it. His first job after college was as a political researcher at ABC News in New York. He would eventually become the writer for the major anchors at the network and worked as an on-air reporter at National Public Radio in Washington.

Warren is the author of four highly acclaimed works of non-fiction and is a regular essayist on a wide variety of issues for national publications including The Wall Street Journal, The National Review and The New York Sun.

He has lectured at the Air Force Academy, West Point, the National Air and Space Conference in Washington and the 92nd St. Y in New York.

Warren lived and worked in Beijing China in the mid- 1980s and traveled extensively throughout Asia. In 1993, he won a Benton Fellowship at the University of Chicago.

He now makes his home in New York.
