    Hey, itā€™s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and today Iā€™m going to share a couple of stories with you from our newest book, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Time for Christmas. I know Christmas is still a couple of months off, but in the meantime we have Thanksgiving, and that usually means turkey, and that often means turkey disasters. So if youā€™ve ever had a turkey disaster of your own, or you fear that one is coming down the road for you, I have stories for you.

    Getting Your Gratitude On in Time for Thanksgiving

    Hey, itā€™s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul, and today Iā€™m going to share a couple of stories with you from our newest book, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Time for Christmas. So I know itā€™s early to be talking about Christmas, but this book is out now because thatā€™s when the retailers want to see Christmas books hit the shelves. The good thing is that we always put lots of Thanksgiving stories in our holiday books, so they start feeling relevant right away. And today, since itā€™s only October, weā€™re going to talk about GETTING READY for Thanksgiving, and how to get your gratitude tuned up for the upcoming holiday.

    Ready, Set Gobble. When Strangers Around the Table Make Thanksgiving Even More Meaningful.

    Hey, itā€™s Amy Newmark with a couple of fun Thanksgiving stories for you as we head toward the winter holiday season. We have a new book, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Tales of Christmas, that has lots of Thanksgiving stories in it, plus a few about Hanukkah and Kwanzaa, and then of course the vast majority about Christmas. But I was struck by how many great stories we got about Thanksgiving this year, way more than usual. Thanksgiving is traditionally a family event, but it does lend itself even more than Christmas does to inviting non-family members. And thatā€™s what weā€™re talking about today.

    When Good Things Happen to Good People

    Hey, itā€™s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and today I want to talk about a couple of very cool stories from our latest book about miracles. In one story, a woman prays for her drinking problem to disappear and through a very strange circumstance she is cured. And in another, a 9/11 wish comes true from across the Atlantic Ocean. I love sharing these stories, and the other 99 in our new book, because they just go to show that miracles are happening around us all the time!

    Men Devalued My Work on Wall Street Over and Over Again

    Hey, itā€™s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul. I know things have improved but it still seems like women have to be better than men to get the same credit. And our bonuses, or appreciation for our work, donā€™t seem equal either. Weā€™ve made progress but thereā€™s more to be accomplished. Today Iā€™m going to share with you a piece I wrote for a publication on Medium called The Narrative Arc. Itā€™s called Men Devalued My Work on Wall Street Over and Over Again and you need to listen to the very end to hear the punch line of this story.

    Miracle? Premonition? How Did This Happen?

    Hey, itā€™s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and today I want to talk about premonitions and dreams and how sometimes people have the weirdest ability to sense that something is going to happen, whether itā€™s a sense of foreboding or a vision or a dream. I never believed that this stuff mattered until I spent all these years reading our stories and seeing this stuff in action. So today Iā€™m sharing two stories with you, one about a father having a premonition that may very well have saved his daughterā€™s life, and the other about a woman who had a whole conversation with her boyfriend in her bedroom the night that he died, not realizing that he was actually still thousands of miles away.Ā

    Grumpy Stranger? Angry Colleague? Donā€™t Take It Personally! Itā€™s not about you.

    Hey, itā€™s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul. Today Iā€™m going to share with you one of my most popular pieces on Medium. If you donā€™t know what Medium is, itā€™s a place where writers can get their short pieces published, either by themselves, or in someone elseā€™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 The Narrative Arc, and itā€™s called Grumpy Stranger? Angry Colleague? Donā€™t Take It Personally! Itā€™s not about you
