Hey folks, this is Kevin, just a few words before we start.

If you haven't already gone over to audiblepodcast.com slash risk, you really should check it out.

Audible has like thousands, I don't know how many thousands of audiobooks, concerts,

lectures, wonderful stuff for your ears.

I'm kind of addicted to it, I get a few audiobooks from them a month.

I've been listening to this one this month called The Science of Enlightenment by Shinson

Young about what happens to your brain if you meditate long and hard enough.

It's a series of lectures and I swear to you, I am this close to converting to Buddhism

just because of listening to this book.

There's all sorts of wonderful things there, including a lot of stuff from people who have been on our show,

Margaret Cho, Mark Marin, Michael Ian, Black, Sarah Silverman, check it out.

If you like risk, then you like stories going into the ear canal and there's a lot more to be found at Audible.

So go to audiblepodcast.com slash risk, free audiobook, free two week trial,

and tons to choose from.

Now here's the show.

Hello folks, this is Extra Risk.

Where we give you just a little bit more of the show where people tell true stories,

they never thought they dared to share.

I'm Kevin Allison, this is beautiful vision behind me now.

If you're new to risk, I suggest you also check out one of our regular episodes where we'll feature about four to five stories.

On extra risk, we usually feature just one story or an interview or maybe just some sort of experiment.

Today we're going to feature a story by Nancy Sullivan and this one was especially courageous for her to share.
