Lisa Faith Phillips weaves funny and touching tales of Cole Porter’s life, loves and the songs which they inspired. From his wealthy childhood in Peru, Indiana through Yale and Harvard Law School, to his marriage to Linda Thomas who accepted that he was gay, Cole lived in Paris for 20 years, and traveled the world, eventually moving to New York and Hollywood. In 1928 at 37, Cole’s Broadway career took off with the success of Paris, followed by many more popular shows. He wrote the music and lyrics for over one thousand songs.

We launched the Women's Power Toolkit podcast series during the sudden pandemic shelter-at -home that began in March 2020 to bring together experts and visionaries in their fields to explore ideas to help us to learn and thrive.
From Dr. Tia Powell sharing what life is like on the medical front lines and Harvard law professor Randy Kennedy on civil liberties during COVID to New Yorker cartoonist Liza Donnelly and rock writer and musician Michael Lydon on the power of music for change, each has their own fascinating insights and story to tell.
Composer Ellen Mandel talks about how music can change your life.
Writers Ann Hedreen and Dana Robbins discuss the healing power of memoir and poetry.
It has been a joy to come together for conversation, ideas and friendship. We are stronger when we connect and share.

The Digital Publishing Summit ran for 2-days June 25-26, 2019 in Paris.
I was honored to be an invited expert speaker for the W3C Web Innovation Week in the Face of the Pandemic. I presented on how the adoption and growth of digital audio and podcasts have accelerated during the extended shutdowns. The focus of this week-long event was to engage a diverse network of business professionals from the tech and business communities to learn about the digital Transformation during this period of the pandemic.
The legendary Maud Gonne left her mark on everyone she met. She famously won the devotion of one of the greatest poets of the age, William Butler Yeats. But she was so much more. An actress, a journalist, an activist and early media influencer for the cause of Irish independence.
Enjoy my conversation with famed singer, author and vocal coach Judith Mok about the power of music.
When Dublin, Ireland was locked down due to COVID-19, Judith began to give free concerts from her balcony. Word spread and crowds gathered to enjoy her beautiful voice. For her inspiring work, she was awarded the 2020 Covid–19 Response Award.
