  • Annalisa / Inanna, Singer, Co-Founder of Better Earth Media, Author of Acrotopia

    12/04/2023 Duración: 28min

    Please welcome Annalisa Giolo, aka Inanna, who joins our show today to talk about how her singing and songwriting is completely inspired by what’s happening here on earth. Inanna was born and raised in Italy, decided to make LA her home after she did a house swap and fell in love with Southern California, which inspired her songwriting and performing. As a nature and animal rights advocate, and founder of Better Earth Media, she uses her platform as an artist to draw attention to our environment and now we can keep it from blowing up. As an Italian having grown up just outside of Venice, Inanna says music, dance, and nature were always a constant as a child, and she talks about growing up Italian, too, and how that has inspired her work. Join us on all video and audio platforms of #LittleItalyPodcast, #LittleItalyOfLAPodcast, & #DeborahKOBYLTLIVE on all video and audio platforms. And invite your friends and family, too❤️

  • Chiara Tilesi, Founder of “We do it together”

    05/04/2023 Duración: 49min

    We are thrilled to have writer, producer, and filmmaker Chiara Tilesi join our show today, who is on a mission to change the way women are heard and portrayed in media, and as you’ll see, she’s succeeding. Chiara is behind the award-winning film, “Tell It Like a Woman” and documentary, “One Of Us.” In addition, she founded, “We Do It Together,“ a nonprofit production company that produces content to empower the story of women around the world. It’s working, having recently been asked to speak before the United Nations. “Tell It Like a Woman” highlights seven segments by female directors from around the world, with topics ranging from homelessness to mental health and addiction, starring some of today’s most recognized actresses. Each story is about women and by women, but for everyone. “One Of Us” started as a documentary about four Italian women living and working in Los Angeles, and the concept has since grown and Chiara will be also talking about that. It was a collaboration with former Italian consul Silv

  • Margie Smith Holt, Author, “Not On Any Map”

    22/03/2023 Duración: 48min

    Please welcome to our show, Margie Smith Holt, who did something almost imaginable. She sailed across the Atlantic - twice - in a hand-made, 30-foot boat, only just having learned to sail, with one crew member. Talk about your mid-life regroup! Margie is my long-time friend, an Emmy-winning journalist whose first book, Not On Any Map, One Virgin Island, Two Catastrophic Hurricanes, And The True Meaning Of Paradise, is a MUST read! Margie was working as a reporter in Philadelphia when her life came crashing down at the age of 40. The man of her dreams decided to leave to seek the “glamour” of being a war correspondent, and suddenly she looked around and didn’t see a future where she was. A vacation to St. John changed all of that, turning what was supposed to be a few weeks into something life changing for Margie. In between, she also battled cancer, and recovered. And I thought Margie was the quiet, demure type when we worked together. You will NOT want to miss our interview, on ALL platforms of #DeborahKobyl

    22/02/2023 Duración: 35min

    Jordan Matthews is a high-profile attorney, former actor, and author, “Failure: When You Have Nothing, You Have Everything,” and this book may have very well changed my life. Jordan speaks very personally about grief and tragic personal events, interwoven into an incredibly successful professional career, and he talks about failure, a lot, and how it’s actually failure in life that brings on clarity. It’s nearly impossible to spot as hard times are happening to us, but they really are lessons to bring us to the next level, whatever that may be. Please join me in welcoming Jordan on our show today, and invite your friends, too. There’s a lot of wisdom in what Jordan has to say, something familiar about it, too.

  • Jordan Matthews, Author, Failure: When You Have Nothing You Have Everything

    Sometimes, life can be one big SHiTHOUSE, and that’s the title of Lauren Dollie Duke’s book, and this is one fascinating “I can’t put this down” read. Lauren is a healer, educator, community activist, and writer who talks about recovery from generational trauma, because she’s been through it with her alcoholic mother and bank-robbing father. Oh, and that’s just the beginning. She talks about the day she decided to be proactive in her healing from trauma, and what she did to get there. It wasn’t easy, but she’s done it, and her book is an inspiration to all of us on how we can cut the chord to generational trauma, too. Please join our full conversation on #DeborahKobyltLIVE on all audio and video podcast platforms, and invite your friends, too. Thanks for tuning in, #DeborahZaraKobylt

  • Michel Shane

    19/01/2023 Duración: 33min

    Filmmaker Michel Shane didn’t envision himself as an activist, but circumstances in life brought him to a different place. The producer of “Catch Me If You Can” this time produced something even closer to his heart, “21 Miles In Malibu,” and Michel joins us today to talk about it. The Pacific Coast Highway is a long, twisty, narrow stretch of road, it’s beautiful but it’s also dangerous. Michel knows all too well, because his beautiful daughter, Emily, was killed by a driver said to be on a murder mission. She was just 12. In this film, Michel details the history of the 21 mile road that borders the Pacific Ocean, why it was built, and the history of the area and land long before a road was built there. It’s fascinating and well researched, and has gained the attention of the larger film community. The film will be shown at the Santa Barbara Film Festival this year. The goal is to draw attention to how the PCH can be safer. And he details that in his film as well. Please join us for this wonderful convers
