Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I’m pleased to share new stories with you from Chicken Soup for the Soul: What I Learned from My Cat, which is our latest best-selling book of cat stories. We spent two years collecting stories for this book so there is a huge variety of topics in it, but I have to say that one of my favorite subthemes in any cat book we publish is what I like to call Time-Share Cats. Somehow these clever little furry pets, if you can call them pets – maybe we are THEIR pets, right? – well anyway these beautiful creatures often figure out how to live with more than one family at the same time, with no one the wiser.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and it’s Wow Wednesday. Which means that I’m sharing two really amazing stories – stories about how mothers keep helping their children even after they are no longer around. It’s kind of reassuring for those of us who are mothers – that our influence and advice will persist even when we’re not there to personally deliver the goodies —and it’s reassuring for grown children worried about how they will keep navigating all those adult milestones without the counsel of their mothers. So that’s why today’s episode is called When Mom Is Gone but Still Being Mom.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I’m continuing to share some of the truly entertaining stories from our latest book called What I Learned from My Dog. Not only are these stories entertaining, but since we’re Chicken Soup for the Soul there has to be some inspiration too, and we all know that dogs make their humans better versions of themselves… so here we go, with an extremely valuable lesson that we all learn from our dogs, and that is… HOW TO LIVE IN THE PRESENT. Isn’t that one of the best life skills that dogs have? It’s one that we all know we SHOULD HAVE, but of course we’re not very good at it.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I’m pleased to share new stories with you from Chicken Soup for the Soul: What I Learned from My Cat, which is our latest best-selling book of cat stories. We were overwhelmed with submissions for this book over the past two years, because it seems like every cat owner has a story about how their cat improved their life, made them a better person, taught them how to live in the moment, and other good things like that. Plus, lots of people wrote about their cats’ intelligence and their special skills, including for diagnosing serious illnesses, hence the name of today’s episode: Dr. Cat.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and it’s Wow Wednesday. We have a new book out about cats, and it’s amazing how many of the stories in it are about miraculous events revolving around cats, including about weird coincidences, premonitions, and dreams involving finding cats and then coming across those same cats in real life. I’m going to share two stories today about the weird and magical way that some people adopted their cats, new family members that were truly meant to be.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I’m continuing to share some of the truly entertaining stories from our latest book called What I Learned from My Dog. We always see how dogs make their humans better versions of themselves, but they also help their humans to get to know themselves better. And that’s why today’s episode is called “What My Dog Taught Me about Myself.”

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul. Have you ever had a miraculous save from a potential disaster? Maybe even a fatal accident? We get these stories all the time from our writers, and we included some great ones in our latest book, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Miracles, Angels & Messages from Heaven. You don’t have to be a religious person to enjoy these stories. They’re just plain cool. And I’ll be sharing a lot of them with you over the next couple of months because they make for great storytelling.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul. We’ve been talking all summer about how you can step outside your comfort zone and make your world bigger, and also feel empowered, energized, enthusiastic, and excited. Lots of good e words. We’ve heard about from our writers who tried lots of things that scared them, including parasailing, roller coasters, mud runs, zip lining and more. And today I have a story from you about an Albert Einstein impersonator who describes in fascinating detail his first and probably only time skydiving, and another story from someone who faced her fear of sharks, etc. and ended up communing with sea turtles as she tried snorkeling for the first time.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul. Today I’m going to share with you one of my most popular pieces on Medium. If you don’t know what Medium is, it’s a place where writers can get their short pieces published, either by themselves, or in someone else’s publication. I started getting published on Medium in April, mostly in two publications which feature interesting stories and great writing. This story appeared in a publication called Crow’s Feet, and it’s called It’s Amazing How Much You Can Accomplish in 60 Seconds.

We were overwhelmed with submissions for this book over the past two years, because it seems like every cat owner has a story about how their cat improved their life, made them a better person, taught them how to live in the moment, and other good things like that. And almost all of the cats in our book were rescues of some kind, either from a shelter or as stray cats that found a home. What’s amazing is how often those RESCUED cats become the RESCUERS, and also HEROES.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and it’s Wow Wednesday. I have two really amazing stories to share with you today, ones that continue to be top of mind for me even though I’ve published more than 17,000 stories during my tenure as editor-in-chief of Chicken Soup for the Soul. These are stories about Americans finding long lost relatives through the strangest circumstances via conversations with random people thousands of miles from home.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I’m pleased to share new stories with you from Chicken Soup for the Soul: What I Learned from My Cat, which is our latest best-selling book of cat stories. We were overwhelmed with submissions for this book over the past two years, because it seems like every cat owner has a story about how their cat improved their life, made them a better person, taught them how to live in the moment, and other good things like that. But first, of course, you have to get a cat, and for people who considered themselves to be “dog people” that’s a big first step. So today, I’m sharing a couple of stories about just that, starting with one by Victoria Lorrekovich-Miller.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I’m continuing to share some of the truly entertaining stories from our latest book called What I Learned from My Dog. So one of the themes in this book is how dogs thrive when they have a purpose, a job of some sorts, and that’s what we’re talking about today, with a dog that goes to court every day, and another dog that delivers the mail. They could have led lives of leisure, but they had other ideas.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and it’s Wow Wednesday. We had Wow Wednesdays on the podcast years ago and I don’t know why I stopped, because the stories are really good. After all, we chose them from thousands of submissions for the books they were in. Today I’m sharing a couple of my favorite stories about dreams, ones that were so worth listening to. It’s amazing how often we see stories like this, about dreams that are life-changing.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I’m pleased to share new stories with you from Chicken Soup for the Soul: What I Learned from My Dog, which is the best-selling book of dog stories that we published last month. I learned a lot from these stories, including that dogs truly make us better versions of ourselves--and they also help us come out of our shells by introducing us to new people. They actually improve our lives, expanding our circle of friends and acting as our social directors. Sometimes, they dramatically change someone’s life, as was the case for Anne Taylor, who talked about this in her story called “Unleashing Confidence.”

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul. Have you ever wished you had more friends? Or you’ve moved and you don’t know anyone? I think we all come to that point in our lives. Friends move away, or we grow in different directions, or we start over in a new community, or we get divorced and discover that we just lost half our friends.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul. Do you ever feel like you’re missing out because you’re starting to resist doing new things? It definitely makes you feel like your world is getting smaller, and it’s one of the themes we see all the time in the stories we receive. People feel empowered and energized when they do something different, and especially when they do something scary.

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and today I’m sharing stories from our new dog book in an episode called My Dog the Juvenile Delinquent. We spent two years collecting the stories for this book and they are really entertaining, but also pretty inspirational, because they show us how fabulous the dogs in our lives are. Even when they’re being bad, really bad, we brag about just how bad they were!

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and it’s Wow Wednesday. We had Wow Wednesdays on the podcast years ago and I don’t know why I stopped, because the stories are so worth telling. Today I’m sharing a couple of my favorite stories about why you should trust that little voice inside that sometimes warns you about things. These stories are from a great book that we made about dreams and premonitions. It’s amazing how often we see stories like this, about dreams and premonitions and gut feelings that are life-changing… and life-SAVING, like today’s stories in which people were actually saved from being the victims of major crimes that could have resulted in them being shot.
