I was delighted to have journalist Beth McDonough join me for a conversation on the Mind of Sai Marie today.

Beth shares her journey from covering major news events to battling alcoholism and ultimately finding recovery. She discusses the impact of her struggles on her career, the importance of seeking help, and the lessons learned through her experiences. Her new book, Standby, serves as a testament to resilience and the possibility of rebuilding one's life after hitting rock bottom.

This latest episode of The Mind of Sai Marie centers on author Chester L. Richards, as he shares his remarkable life journey, from co-writing a Star Trek episode to overcoming personal loss through writing.

Chester discusses the emotional challenges of storytelling, the influence of his heritage on his adventurous spirit, and the balance between myth and reality in his narratives.
