“I lost my father to cancer in 1995, he was 64. There are so many times I wish I would have fought harder to keep him with us. Then to have brought him home to dye in three weeks. He had liver cancer. I'm thirty-two and have been told I have one year to live. As I wait for a donor I not only fight for the courage my father would have given me but the courage he raised me with. Everyday I feel him helping me and can see his warm brown eyes. He too had the warmest, nicest and honest soul reading brown eyes. Tonight I was sitting here thinking about life and I came across your motivational letter. After reading it I felt my father with me telling me I can beat this, time is only a small hurdle. Thank you for your story and sharing it with me. My support group is always ready for more inspirational stories and yours is a must read.

“I was a guest on Cynthia Brian’s radio program, BE THE STAR YOU ARE!®, Cynthia is very articulate and more than this, when there was a technical glitch, she was also very patient. It has long been my belief that whatever a person sincerely thinks they are, this they will become. There is a story of an American Indian, who finds an eagle’s egg on the ground. Searching in vain for the nest, he puts it under a prairie chicken to hatch. When the eagle comes out, he looks around to see what he is supposed to be doing. He sees the other prairie chickens rising a few feet above the earth, then loudly cawing and scratching at the soil. He does this, too, for his whole life. Near the end of that life, he sees an eagle proudly flying overhead. He asks in astonishment “What is that?” An elderly prairie chicken tell him, “that is an eagle. Why he can fly right up to the sun. But don’t you ever try that. You are just a prairie chicken like the rest of us.” And so he dies, thinking he is a prairie chicken, having spent his entire life rising only a few feet above the earth. If only he had known he was an eagle, why he might have flown right up to the sun! This is what Cynthia Brian brings to the airwaves. This radio program is dedicated to telling others that they are eagles, not prairie chickens. Father John Powell, SJ, Loyola University, author of “Happiness is an Inside Job” and “Fully Human, Fully Alive”.
“It was a pleasure to be on your show. You have a warmth that sparkles across the airwaves! You have created something truly special and I’m glad I could be part of it. Thank you very much for your support and for your kind words. I really appreciate you taking the time to write them. It really means a lot. Noah St. John, author of “Permission to Succeed”.
“Cynthia, your warmth, open heartedness and abiding interest and dedication to what truly matters in life created an instant bridge, so that being interviewed by you was more like having a chat with a dear friend. You bring boundless energy to making the world a more compassionate and loving place. Many fond regards.” Arlene Bernstein, author, “Growing Season”

The "Chicken Soup" guy was right — YOU are the greatest to interview with (probably because you do more research about your guest than 99.9% of other hostsI SO appreciate your sharing them on the air! It is rare that an interviewer will speak much about my book(s). Usually, they ask about my parenting philosophy or dealing with chronic illness. It was truly refreshing and rewarding to get to visit with someone about the subtle messages in my books. I've been asked why I have not written a "how to" parenting book; I have, it is called "The Seekers." in The Marauders)God bless you.
