Kate Sutton

Armed with a velvet blue couch and cupcake pillow, Kate challenges our relationships with food and some widely held beliefs about health. As an LPC certified in Health at Any Size, and Intuitive Eating principles, Kate’s counseling practice focuses on eating disorders and body image. We discuss the importance of being kind to ourselves, and fighting back against the negative messaging from the $70 Billion diet and wellness industry.  Moving across the southeast and back and forth across America was a significant part of Kate’s childhood. The constant change, and loss of her father, nurtured both a helpful adaptability and coping strategies she's had to unlearn. She began her career as a play therapist with grieving children and two years ago opened her own practice with a focus on eating disorders and body image on Hillsborough St near NC State University. Kate provides a lot of perspective and information for people interested in learning more. And really, who doesn’t have someone in their lives that skips meals, excessively exercises, or thinks losing weight will make them happy? We even play a word association game with common “diet culture” words near the end. Be kind. Be kind to yourself, and be kind to others.

Join us on this quest as we learn about John’s childhood goal to become a wizard, avoid homework, and survive family canoe trips right after hurricanes. He spent his early years in Warren County before moving to Carteret County and the easy-breezy life on Emerald Isle. With his first baby on the way, John reflects on fatherhood and what he learned from his dad. The gift for humor and cooking, (thanks to mama Fowler!) later developed into a passion for improv comedy and farm to table cooking. We really dig into the culture of improv, where to see it locally, and discuss evolving boundaries and inclusion in comedy. Mostly we just laugh a lot. Don’t forget to check out the bonus track if you want to hear more of their discussion on comedy!

Zainab Baloch

Zainab, born in Raleigh, is running for City Council to represent the younger generation and ensure that this wonderful city cares for all of its citizens for the next 50 years. It is notable that she is also a Muslim American citizen and although she is so much more than that, her story has been defined by events of 9-11, Gulf Wars, and #OurThreeWinners. She chooses love over fear, and empathy and curiosity over judgement. P.S. ask her about Basketball.

Today's episode is a snapshot of my morning by the downtown bus station and 4 people I encountered there. Tyrone was setting up his hot dog stand and greeting customers as he organized supplies and fired the grill. Across the street, Christine, who owns the new bookstore Read With Me, was putting out her sandwhich board of upcoming events and is particularly concerned about the care of her homeless neighbors. Down in Moore Square, Beto, a homeless man, told me a little about his journey from Nigeria to Raleigh. Maëli, 10, was attending a book club meeeting at Read With Me with her classmates and happens to be writing a book of her own. Young, old, rich, poor, black, white, international, single, married, local, male, female- all converge on the same block of Hargett Street last Friday.
