Episode Description
Kathryn interviews executive editor for NPR News Madhulika Sikka, author of “A Breast Cancer Alphabet”. When she was diagnosed with breast cancer three years ago, she found that there were no books on the market that spoke with honesty and attitude to women. A Breast Cancer Alphabet is an A-to-Z guide to living with breast cancer, giving women a starting point to get at some of the thorniest questions that face women in treatment for a serious illness. Sikka has won four Emmys, a Peabody, and several national awards. Kathryn also interviews Mashable contributor and Futurist John C. Havens on his latest book “Hacking Happiness: Why Your Personal Data Counts and How Tracking it Can Change the World”. Havens is a contributing writer to Mashable, The Guardian, and The Huffington Post and founder of The H(app)athon Project, a non-profit organization, "Connecting Happiness to Action one phone, one heart, and one city at a time" through the use of interactive, sensor-based smartphone surveys.
