Social media has inundated our every day and it's really easy to get lost in other's incredible experiences, but there is always a real story of how they got there. What is the nitty-gritty behind the pretty picture or edited caption in the pictures of their real life? What is the real story? Talk to Me!
Humans are encouraged and uplifted by hearing and seeing the real, influential stories. This brings a sense of realism to our very edited and manicured social media lives. There is also an opportunity to discuss how God or perhaps inner strength played a part in these success stories. Let’s bring back the art of storytelling and strive for connection instead of comparison.

    Nathan Harrison | Liv's Husband/Seeker of Justice

    Nathan Harrison | Liv's Husband/Seeker of Justice

    Just because you met someone at 15 and have been married to them for 20 years does NOT make you and expert on them. This interview was shocking in more ways than one. Every reaction I have is in real time and absolutely authentic. Honestly, I love that after being Nathan’s girl for over 26 years I still learn new things about him.


    Interviewing my husband for this podcast was something I both looked forward to and dreaded. For one thing, Nathan is my complete and polar opposite. We have always lived on far ends of the personality spectrum. There has rarely been a time that we have been in public when someone hasn’t said, “So how exactly do you two work”? Frankly, we don’t know ourselves. We have spent the majority of our lives together as a couple and we still don’t exactly know why we work. It is one thing to marry your opposite, it’s a whole other thing to marry your extreme opposite.


    The most surprising part of this podcast was not only what I learned about Nathan, but just to hear how far we have come and grown as a couple. We get really honest and very real. We are open about us individually and as a couple. Nathan lays down some incredible truth and I announce so big projects for 2021.
    My favorite part is how Nathan addresses my mental illness. He discusses what his perspective as a husband has been with (at times) a very ill wife. Nathan doesn’t shy away from what a spouse should do and how he has felt and what he has faced in our marriage, especially in the last few years as I have been in treatment for both extremely severe anxiety and severe depression.


    For us as a married couple we have never faced the darkness and challenges we have this last year. Since 2017 we found ourselves on a path, I sent us on that was unhealthy and damaging. This break we have been gifted in 2020 has brought our marriage the much-needed time to reflect, talk, cry, mend, heal, and forgive. In every way 2020 has been the hardest year we have faced. On the other hand, 2020 gave us the space to find one another in a new and stronger way. We are finally moving forward. This is absolutely because Nathan is the most honest, ethical, and good man I have ever met. He is worth your time. His story of courage and years as a leader in justice will not only inspire you but lead you to say, “NATHAN. IS. EXTRAORDINARY.”


    *Nathan is private. However, if you want to contact him you may through my social media/email

    Laura Fanucci | Poet to Viral Sensation

    Laura Fanucci | Poet to Viral Sensation

    Writing in school is either something people LOVE or LOATHE. You could make the argument that it depends on the writing assignment. Is the writing a narrative? Poetry? A How-To? Is it a persuasive piece or an opinion piece that would be in the newspaper? There are so many different types of ways to convey the written word. Now add social media.


    Today it is easy to go “viral”. You can be an absolute no one and post something on the internet, get a snack, and see your post circulating the World Wide Web. Ok, maybe it isn’t easy, but it is definitely a possibility. The real question is, why? Why do some photos, stories, quotes, videos, Tik Toks, products gain popularity and others don’t?


    As much as I would LOVE the decoder ring on this quandary…the big secret is…no one knows. Sure, there is some science behind what sticks and gets shared, but for the most part there really is not a formula until you strike gold. My guest struck gold early in 2020, just as the world shut down her world busted open like a pinata. And the kicker is…she had NO idea what was about to happen on her computer screen.


    Grab your favorite drink and listen to the incredible story of a woman who just loves to write, Laura Fanucci.

    Vicki Clark | From Memphis to Motivational Speaker

    Vicki Clark | From Memphis to Motivational Speaker

    The news has been filled with medical discoveries these last few weeks. Medical teams have been working around the clock for solutions to a world-wide-crisis. Hope is on the horizon! But who brings Hope to these brave men and women who have dedicated their lives to the wellbeing of their fellow man? None other than the sought-after and beloved Vicki Clark!


    Vicki has spent the last 30 years traveling the globe inspiring, motivating, and consulting with some of the biggest executives on the planet. Remember those amazing science promises the world is waiting for right now? Vicki has been the speaker who has motivated the National & International teams of the CDC, United Way, AstraZeneca, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Points of Light, Audubon Society, American Bar Association, Head Start, Sigma Kappa, and my personal favorite (because I met her there) the Junior League…just to name a few.


    The moment you meet Vicki Clark you know you are in the presence of GREATNESS. You find yourself looking for a chair, a cup of coffee, a babysitter, a sweater if it’s cold, or anything to hunker down with to focus on listening. People with stories like Vicki just don’t exist anymore, or rarely. IF these stories do exist people are not able to tell them in ways that do them justice. Vicki both has the stories and the skillset to share them.


    Vicki is honest, real, and open about how she created a career as a black woman when women like her were not given opportunities. She shares how she was blessed by the most unlikely men at an unlikely time in history. You won’t be able to stop listening to this American treasure of a storyteller. By the end you will be as in love with Vicki as the rest of us. If you are lucky enough to already walk this life with her as a friend, you will find yourself falling deeper in admiration.

    Liv's Weight Loss Journey

    Liv's Weight Loss Journey

    *This episode could be a trigger for anyone dealing with weight, addiction, food addiction, and eating disorders. ForteCatholic and Liv Harrison are not medical professionals. This episode is Liv’s personal story. Always seek the advice of a medical professionals when addressing mental and physical health issues and before making changes to your diet.


    If you have been following me, Liv Harrison, on social media there has definitely been an uptick in my posting about my weight-loss journey. My story is extreme. My highest recorded weight by medical professionals was 458 pounds. In October 2020 I posted that I was finally in the 170’s and no longer considered morbidly obese. However, this journey has taken 15 years to achieve and is not over.


    For the first time I am addressing publicly how I got to that extreme weight and what I did to overcome it. The story is long, because let’s be honest, to get to that ginormous of a number and to lose 286 pounds, it’s gonna take a minute to make it through. And since I am being honest…I get really really real. There are things I have never shared and I share in ways I never have. It gets raw, honest, ugly, and very human.
    This is me.
    This is my huge weight loss journey.
    I ask that you listen with human ears and with a human heart.

    Mary Lenaburg | Be Brave in the Scared

    Mary Lenaburg | Be Brave in the Scared

    Normally I begin with some cute story or roundabout way of introducing a guest, but there is no need to “hide the lead”. My guest is loved for one simple true and sincere reason…she is undeniably loveable. What makes her so well liked, loved, admired, revered, sought after, and adored is her uncanny relatability. You would be hard pressed to find someone more transparent and real. You won’t find them; she is the real-deal. She is as authentic as they come. I’m talking about Mary Lenaburg of course.


    If Mary’s authenticity doesn’t win you over her story certainly will. Most people are aware of the immense tragedy Mary has endured. She has never held back what sadness she has faced in her life. Rarely does Mary get asked beyond just her normal stories that she is always asked to share. That’s because her experience is unique and her storytelling skills are fierce. My goal was to get a few unknown or lesser known stories out of the unofficial-official “Queen of Wisdom”. I am thrilled to say that goal was achieved.


    Mary is everything you think she is and everything you want her to be. You always leave loving her more and you have no idea how that was even possible. To call her a friend is a gift. To know her heart is a honor. To love her is a privilege.
