LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah – Details, episodes & analysis

You're used to hearing and seeing her name as it relates to star performances in movies like "Almost Famous", but today... today we'll be talking with the gorgeous, delightful, multi-talented Kate Hudson about her debut music album, "Glorious". She's not an actor turned singer-songwriter, it's just who she's always been, but she's just now revealing this side to us. 

I love that at 45 Kate is still exploring, still reaching, still challenging herself and sharing the amazing results with us. I hope there's a nugget of inspiration in there for you to spend some time on something that's been percolating for a while. Show the world what you're made of! ~ Delilah

After starting out with humble beginnings singing in their father’s church in West Oakland, CA, The Pointer Sisters went on to achieve worldwide success and a place in pop music history.

The eldest sister, and only remaining member of the original group, Ruth Pointer, continues to perform the music of The Pointer Sisters all over the globe with her daughter, Issa Pointer, and granddaughter, Sadako Pointer. What an absolute thrill it was to speak to this talented trailblazer. We laughed so much, especially when she caught me out on an on-air oopsie I made yeeeaaarrrs ago, and Ruth was listening! 

The Pointer Sisters will be joining The Commodores and The Spinners for a limited engagement tour this summer through the fall sharing an "unforgettable evening of classics hits." What an opportunity! ~ Delilah

"Girls" is a love letter to Rachel Platten's children--perhaps to herself as well. And if you have daughters (or you ARE a daughter) you'll embrace it as your own. The singer/songwriter that brought you "Fight Song" always writes from her heart and we feel her music in ours.

Join us for this sweet, intimate conversation where we speak of the dark times that inspire such powerful messages, and the light that's able to illuminate the chords and the lyrics. "Girls" has been out for a while, and her newest, "Mercy", has just been released. She's so amazing, you'll want to get to know her! ~ Delilah

Mental health is beginning to lose the stigma its been wrapped in for much of recent history, but there is sooo much work still to be done, and sooo many conversation still to be had on this topic. Singer, songwriter, activist, and scholar, Jewel, has spent much of her adult life researching and enacting effective ways to deal with anxiety and depression, and then share her work with the world. She'll tell you (and I'll agree with her) that as obsessed as we all are with "hacks" they simply don't exist for getting through grief and emotional healing. What does work? Join us on this episode of LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah as we discuss her theories and she talks about the book she's working on. This is Part 2 of the most fascinating conversations I've ever had! ~ Delilah

Show of hands for all of you who love singer/songwriter Jewel... Mine's up in the air! Since her break-out hit, "Hands" in the fall of 1998, this sweet and sparkly Jewel is much beloved, but I'm willing to guess that many of you are just as clueless as I was as to the absolute powerhouse of intellect this woman is!

Raised in circumstances of dire need, without the security most of us have always taken for granted, Jewel has always been a crafty survivor, but she has grown into so much more. Her philanthropy stretches across continents and is also strongly felt on our shores. She started by offering to others, who were looking for ways to bolster their mental health, the coping practices she developed for herself during a brief time of homelessness. From there, she's developed several more projects, each targeted at helping vulnerable populations. Her latest work is a film, "Lost In America" about our homeless youth, and of course, her own music provides the soundtrack. The single, "No More Tears" is out now, and we're going to talk about that and so much more on this episode of Love Someone with Delilah. It's Part 1 of 2 and I know you're going to want to join me next time to hear the rest! ~ Delilah

Ever have the desire to be your own boss? To take a passion of yours to the next level and offer it up, and get paid for your time and talent? If so, then my guest today on LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah is definitely someone you want to get to know! Lindsay Teague Moreno is a married mama of three little ones, a successful business owner, podcaster, and author. Her book, "Boss Up!" was my book club pick for last September, and I am super happy to be able to talk with her today. She's an ardent advocate for women entrepreneurs, and those who want it all but give themselves 50 excuses why "right now" isn't the right time. Lindsay helps women gain the confidence to know that having ambition doesn't diminish their roles of wife or mother, it ENHANCES it! It is not only OK to want it all, it's also very possible! I'm so glad you've decided to join us for this episode, ~ Delilah

David Francisco Platillero is a survivor. Young, handsome, healthy, and talented, he was living his dream when IT happened. Hit by a distracted driver while riding his bicycle, David was gravely injured and told he would never walk again... HA! His lion heart led him through the pain of his injuries, surgeries, and months of grueling therapy to the love of his life, Kristi. The two now walk together through life and feel like they can face any challenge it has to offer.

David has released a CD, and companion book, called LIONHEART; an inspiring story of love, forgiveness, and the power of music. He and his beautiful bride Kristi join me today to talk about their journey and their mission of empowering others to face their fears, even when all seems lost. Lionheart is also my February book club pick. Visit my Book Club at Delilah.com to learn more, and go to www.DavidFranciscoMusic.com to keep up with David's work! ~ Delilah

This Valentine's Day podcast episode is all about The Heart. Specifically, about the Healing Heart... and even more specifically, how art can be a soothing balm for an aching heart.

My guest, Elizabeth St. Hilaire, is a successful artist, teacher, author and innovator. I stumbled onto her work when I was grieving deeply, and found submerging myself into the art techniques she developed (and went on to share with the world,) had an immensely therapeutic and transformative effect. Elizabeth's own heart is made of gold, and she and I have become good friends. I'm so happy that she agreed to join me on LOVE SOMEONE to encourage anyone and everyone to give art and creativity another try. If you've experienced a loss and/or find yourself in place of vulnerability, or if you're the type to proclaim that you don't have any talent or aren't creative... this episode is for you. Give us a listen. ~ Delilah

Oh Celine! How do we love thee... in so many many ways! Almost no one says "Valentine's" like Celine, or rather SINGS Valentine's! We are so fortunate that THIS Valentine's Day, she's back- better, stronger, and more courageous than ever!

Courage, her new album, is all about where Celine is right now in her life - and it will resonate with millions of her fans that’ll hear a little of themselves in her music. She’s learning to live without her husband by her side, but instead within her heart. She’s watching her boys grow and change and championing their growth as well as her own. She’s on the road without her family for the first time, since the kids are involved in school and sports and in very good hands back home...

It’s a time of intense challenge, discovery, and COURAGE and on this episode of LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah, she's going to share a big dose of it with us! Courage is good medicine ~ Delilah
