Hey, it’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 that’s what we’re talking about today.

Hey, it’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!

Hey, it’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, don’t seem equal either. We’ve made progress but there’s more to be accomplished. Today I’m going to share with you a piece I wrote for a publication on Medium called The Narrative Arc. It’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.

Hey, it’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 it’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 I’m sharing two stories with you, one about a father having a premonition that may very well have saved his daughter’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.

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 The Narrative Arc, and it’s called Grumpy Stranger? Angry Colleague? Don’t Take It Personally! It’s not about you

Hey, it’s Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and today I’m sharing a couple of stories about really cool coincidences from Chicken Soup for the Soul: Miracles, Angels & Messages from Heaven. I’m not a religious person but I love making these books because so many of the stories we get are truly miraculous, no matter what your beliefs, and they just go to show that wonderful things can happen when we least expect them. Like the first story in the book – and by the way I always put one of my absolute favorites first in every book. This story by Christy Hoss is about a place that is already miraculous, and that’s Disneyland, but what happened to Christy’s family was particularly inspiring.
