Wally, I listen to your radio show every day! In fact, for the last 3 years, WAY-FM has been all I’ve listened to in the car. Last year, my husband and I separated, and I felt my world was ending. Your show–the music, your banter, and the jokes–helped me through what I thought were my darkest days. Seven weeks ago, my 17-year-old son took his own life. Now, my faith in God is barely hanging on. I haven’t… … Continue reading

Hi Wally, I was hearing your letter that you wrote to your dad, and it broke me. I cried for about 10 minutes. I wish my dad was like yours, but my father is a narcissistic person. He has done some horrible things and can’t seem to recognize that his actions are hurtful. When I was a little boy, I thought that I loved him because he acted fatherly, but I don’t know what happened… … Continue reading
This is probably the hardest Father’s Day card I’ve ever had to write, as the realization hit me that this might be the last one because my Dad is sick: Happy Father’s Day, Dad, Thank you doesn’t even begin to cover what I owe you. As a kid, you were always there for me, encouraging me, and guiding me. As an adult, you shared your wisdom and advice with me. I think all of that… … Continue reading
I’ve been been taking a self-defense class (for obvious reasons, due to my work environment), and today, I showed Wally a simple move for when someone sneaks up behind you. Besides my sweet moves, I also learned some valuable advice for dealing with sketchy situations! I gave Betty some of these scenarios to see how she’d do. How many can you guess correctly? … Continue reading
Goals can be easy to set but hard to achieve. That’s the lesson that I’ve been learning the hard way this year as I attempt to get myself to a healthier weight (I still miss you, metabolism!). Instead of going the fad diet route this time, I decided to team up with some close friends who were trying to achieve the same thing so that we could hold each other accountable. As we met to talk… … Continue reading

I am always sad when I get ready to leave Africa. The people and experiences here are amazing, but there are 4 things I will not miss: 1. The urge to do dumb things There are so many opportunities to feel like a kid and do things that are not smart, like balancing on a small log over a contaminated water source, but I can’t help myself. Full disclosure, I did ask someone to hold… … Continue reading
