Description

On today’s episode, I’m joined by Lu Ann Cahn, an 8-time Emmy Award–winning journalist, author, and speaker. Lu Ann is the author of I Dare Me, a book inspired by her year-long journey of doing one new thing every single day to get her life unstuck.

Lu Ann has lived a remarkable career in investigative journalism, telling powerful stories across the globe. But despite her many accomplishments, she found herself feeling stuck, wrestling with major life changes, technology shifts in her industry, and personal battles with both breast and kidney cancer. Out of that season came a transformative experiment: to say yes to new experiences, big and small.

In this episode, we dive into:

• The “Power of Do the New” – why trying something new, even simple things, can spark joy, resilience, and courage.
• Her journey from stuck to unstoppable – how saying yes to daily new experiences led to her book deal, new career opportunities, and renewed purpose.
• Simple ways to start – from walking your dog backwards to planting an herb garden, how small experiments can change your mindset.
• The ripple effect – stories of people who were inspired by Lu Ann’s journey and how it shaped their own resilience and ability to embrace change.
• Leading by example – why daring ourselves to do new things makes us stronger leaders, more open communicators, and more resilient human beings.

Lu Ann reminds us that trying something new doesn’t have to take hours of your day; it can be as small as five minutes, but it has the power to shift your energy, your mindset, and even your future.
