Laura Cathcart Robbins
Hosted by Laura Cathcart Robbins, a writer and a recovery thriver and survivor, Laura found herself in an all too familiar position. In September 2018, she was the only black woman in the room at Brave Magic, a famed writer’s retreat. After it was over, she wrote about her “only one” experience in The Huffington Post and comments started flooding into her DM. These comments were from people from all races, ethnicities, creeds, and nationalities who had felt “othered”. Laura beautifully interviews a person about their Only One story each episode and addresses as many of those DM’s as possible in the process. In this podcast, you’ll hear raw, vulnerable accounts from people who are, like most of us, just eager to connect. Our hope is that The Only One In The Room will inspire a change of perspective in how we all see and hear each other’s stories. We want you to think twice before judging the person standing next to you at a party, in the pick-up line at school, or in a crowded subway car. This is a podcast for anyone who has ever felt alone in a room full of people – which is to say, that this podcast is for everyone.

Peter Sage Is The Only One In The Room Who Was Grateful to go to Prison
Imagine going to court on a civil matter and then finding yourself being sentenced to prison - for contempt of court. Motivational Speaker, Tedx Speaker and best-selling author, Peter Sage, thought he’d be back in time to finish his workday when he went to court in January of 2017, but instead, he was sent to Pentonville, the UK’s most violent prison.
So what would you do if you were wrongfully imprisoned and had to say goodbye to your fiancee, your life, and the money you’d just invested in a major business event? Would you fight for freedom, using every resource at your disposal? Or would you become a secret agent of change and show others how they too, could conquer adversity?

Matt Cox Is The Only One Writing True Crime Stories From Inside Prison
Imagine being a conman doing a lengthy prison sentence for a variety of bank fraud charges and finding that instead of the yard or the track, you feel drawn to the library.
Matt Cox, former conman and true crime author, spent years in prison writing stories, starting with his own and then going on to write the stories of his fellow inmates.
But what would you do if you realized that once you were released the only legal ways you knew how to earn money were now off the table? Would you go back to a life of crime or would you embark on a new career and become a legit true crime author?

Chad Foster Is The Only One Who Improved His Vision By Losing His Eyesight
Can you imagine what it’d be like to watch the sunset, or a football game, or even take a picture, knowing that it would be the last time that you could see what was in front of you?
Author and inspirational speaker, Chad Foster, was just three years old when he was diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa, a disease that gradually robs you of your eyesight. Twenty years later, he was self-medicating with alcohol, riddled with embarrassment, depression and grief about going blind and thinking that his life was over.
But what would you do if you’d decided that feeling sorry for yourself wasn’t how you wanted to spend the next fifty or so years? Would you cower from a future that was too scary to imagine? Or would you transform yourself from “poor me” to a leader that inspires others to improve their vision?

Jennifer Eikenhorst Is The Only One Who Found Hope After A Deadly Accident
Imagine driving home, your daughters in the backseat, and suddenly a flash of light on the driver’s side warns you that there’s a vehicle approaching and you and your girls brace for impact.
Jennifer Eikenhorst, teacher, wife, mother of four, and a woman of strong faith was almost home when she’d realized that vehicle she’d collided with was a motorcycle and that somehow, she had caused a devastating accident.
So what would you do if the man on the bike died a few days later in the hospital? Would you lose hope and question your faith? Or would you force yourself to keep going and start a podcast that gives hope to others who have killed someone by accident?

Mistress Marley Is The Only One Who Gets Paid To Humiliate Men
Imagine celebrating your 27th birthday in Tulum, Mexico. A trip financed by your online suitors who obeyed your financial commands and waited only for you to tell them how much money you required.
Pro Dominatrix or Findomme, Mistress Marley googled “how to make more money” after getting her degree in fashion design and discovered the world of BDSM.
But what would you do if when it came to the psychological kink of controlling someone’s wallet, you realized that you had a very special skill set? Would you take the safe route and pursue a career in fashion? Or would you take the money that men were lining up to give you?

Keith Corbin Is The Only James Beard Nominated Chef Who Started By Cooking Cocaine
While drugs changed hands and bullets flew outside, his grandmother’s kitchen was a haven for him.
James Beard nominated chef, Keith Corbin literally grew up in the drug game and ended up working in the kitchen of the maximum security prison where he served seven years as an adult.
So what would you do if after serving your time, you were both a skilled cook in a restaurant where you gained valuable experience, and a skilled cocaine cook, where they paid you very well for your time? Would you continue to do both for as long as you could? Or would you make a decision to leave one life behind for good, and pursue the other with everything you had?

Emmylou Diaz Is The Only Latinx Woman In The Writer’s Room
Imagine getting your MFA in acting at Harvard and then moving to Los Angeles only to find that the parts you're auditioning for were either the Chola or the gangbanger?
Screenwriter, Emmylou Diaz, whose credits include Jane The Virgin and Charmed, decided to take a writing class one day after realizing that she wasn’t being taken seriously as an actress.
But what would you do if you got a job that turned into a new career? A career that gave you the opportunity to write on some of America’s most successful shows? Would you just be grateful for the chance to do something that only one-fourth of one percent of the US population gets to do? Or would you take this opportunity to write the parts you’d hoped for back when you were an actress?

Sofia Rose Is The Only Fat, Over-Forty, Latina Pornstar In The Room
Imagine being an actress in an industry where the norm is twenty, white and thin and you are a proud forty-something Latina who identifies as fat.
Sofia Rose, critically acclaimed Latina performer, published model, pioneering BBW pornstar became an adult film actress knowing that she’d be fetishized by some and criticized by others.
But what would you do if you discovered that by simply being yourself on film, you made it possible for real women, women who looked like you to feel desirable? Would you let the critics get to you and retire from your chosen profession? Or would you continue to win award after award and show the world how a Big Beautiful Woman does it?

Rafael Agustin Is The Only Who Was Shocked To Find Out He Was Undocumented
What if, even though you’d moved to the US at age six from Ecuador, you grew up thinking you were like every other American boy?
Author, screenwriter and CEO, Rafael Agustin modeled his childhood after the Hollywood TV shows he loved, Batman, Saved By The Bell, Friends and more.
But what would you do if your parents told you that you were undocumented and the life that you’d been living was actually borrowed and not yours for keeps. Would you feel betrayed and hold a grudge against your parents? Or would you see that they were trying to protect you and give you “dreams without borders''?

Sean (Seano) McFarland: The Only One In The Room Ending Generational Trauma
Imagine being twelve years old when your father leaves your family. And instead of watching him drive away, you give chase, on foot, for four whole miles?
For addiction trauma specialist and life coach, Sean “Seano” McFarland, his father’s leaving was the beginning of a series of traumatic events that would shape and change the course of his entire life.
But what would you do if when you became a father yourself, and you wanted to give your son what your father couldn’t give to you? Would you allow the pain that scarred your childhood years to guide your parenting? Or would you end the generational trauma by showing up for him no matter what?

When writer and editor, Emily McCombs hit a low point in her life she thought that she couldn’t possibly feel any worse if she drank, so she did.
But what would you do if six months after that first drink, you were using cocaine daily and facing financial devastation? Would you try harder to conceal your unmanageable life from the world? Or would you find the humility that it takes to come back after a relapse?

William Fitzsimmons Is The Only One Celebrating The Culture Of His Black Daughter
What if, while looking to adopt, two babies stole your heart, one white and one Black. And when you looked at them, you just knew that they were both your daughters.
William Fitzsimmons, singer, songwriter and producer, adopted his two daughters with his now ex-wife, knowing that as a White man, it would be important to learn to take care of his Black daughter’s hair and educate himself about her African-American culture.
But what would you do, if a cultural reckoning swept across America and put a harsh spotlight on the racial differences in your family? Would you try to stay low until things settled down? Or would you celebrate your daughter’s heritage for all the world to see?

Roderick Sewell Is The First Double Above The Knee Amputee To Complete The Ironman World Championships Episode 179
Imagine growing up with prosthetics from the thighs down.
Paralympic athlete, Roderick Sewell was born missing his tibia in both legs and he and his mother experienced homelessness for several years starting when he was just eight years old.
So what would you do if at age ten, you felt a freedom you’d never before known - in the water. Would you assume that your disability would keep you from being an athlete? Or would you grow up and train for the Ironman World Championships, becoming the first bilateral above-the-knee amputee ever to do it?

Heather Chauvin Is The Only One Who Wouldn’t Be Alive If She Wasn’t White Episode 178
What if one year after your youngest son was born, you were diagnosed with stage four cancer?
Leadership coach, author and podcaster, Heather Chauvin’s family went into action, using their connections to make sure that Heather was seen quickly.
So what would you do if you realized that folks from the non-dominant culture might have had a completely different experience, and the only reason that you were alive was because of the color of your skin? Would you keep this information to yourself? Or would you talk about, all about it, and shine a light on this discrepancy?

Dr. Elisa Hallerman Is The Only One Who Wrote The Book On Soulbriety Episode 177
Imagine lying on your sister’s living room floor thinking your life is over, that trauma and drugs had a grip on you so tight, it felt like dying was an option.
But five years after Dr. Elisa Hallerman finally got sober, she found herself waking up with a familiar sense of despair.
So what would you do if you were one of the top talent agents in the business, but you still felt like you were alone? Would you continue along your chosen path, or would you create and run the first-ever Recovery Management Agency and literally write the book on Soulbriety.

Eric Zimmer Is The Only One Intentionally Feeding The Good Wolf Episode 176
Imagine being homeless and addicted to heroin, getting sober, drinking again, getting sober a second time and staying sober this time, for over fifteen years.
Behavior coach, certified interfaith spiritual director, podcast host and writer, Eric Zimmer, starts off every podcast by telling the parable about the two wolves at battle within us. The bad wolf that represents greed, hatred and fear, and the good wolf that represents kindness, bravery and love.
So what would you do if you understood that this meant you had a choice? That you could feed the bad wolf and be miserable, or you could feed the good one and build a life worth living?

Life coach and podcast host, Lana Manikowski, always thought she’d be a mom, and was willing to do whatever it took to make her dream a reality.
So what would you do if you were finally diagnosed with “unexplained infertility?” Would you resign yourself to a life of loneliness, self-judgment and confusion? Or would you ask yourself, “So now what?” And rediscover life after failed IVF?

Tia Levings Is The Only One Who Chose Her Identity Over Her Marriage Episode 173
What if you grew up in Christian Fundamentalism and were taught that a women’s role was to serve as a model of duty and purity?
Author and activist, Tia Levings took her four children and fled her marriage in the middle of the night, leaving everything she had ever known behind.
But what if after you remarried, your husband asked you to choose between him and writing. Would you revert back to being a well-trained wife and agree to give up the career that you loved? Or would you step into the unknown again and claim your identity for all the world to see?

PRESENTING: What Was That Like
Scott and Laura are avid listeners of the What Was That Like podcast. And every once in a while, they are so compelled by an episode that they just have to share with you. Please enjoy this special presentation of the What Was That Like podcast.
Probably the most difficult thing for a parent to experience is losing a child.
It’s often been said that the English language fails us in this area. A woman who loses her spouse is called a widow. If a man is the one who survives his spouse, he’s a widower. A child who has lost their parents is called an orphan.
But why isn’t there a word for a parent whose child has died? Well, it turns out there actually is a word for that.
“Vilomah” is a Sanskrit word that’s been used in Hindu philosophy for centuries. It’s a compound word made up of two words – “vi” which means “against”, and “loma” which means “hair”. The word “vilomah” is often translated as “against the hair” or “against the grain” or “against the natural order of things”.
In recent years, the word “vilomah” has gained popularity outside of Hindu philosophy, and it’s now used to describe a parent who has lost a child. The term “vilomah parent” refers to a parent who has experienced the loss of a child, which is considered to be a violation of the natural order of things.
Ashley lives in Florida, and she knows about that experience. And she’s using her story to help other people avoid what she’s been through.
