 “I lost my father to cancer in 1995, he was 64. There are so many times I wish I would have fought harder to keep him with us. Then to have brought him home to dye in three weeks. He had liver cancer. I'm thirty-two and have been told I have one year to live. As I wait for a donor I not only fight for the courage my father would have given me but the courage he raised me with. Everyday I feel him helping me and can see his warm brown eyes. He too had the warmest, nicest and honest soul reading brown eyes. Tonight I was sitting here thinking about life and I came across your motivational letter. After reading it I felt my father with me telling me I can beat this, time is only a small hurdle. Thank you for your story and sharing it with me. My support group is always ready for more inspirational stories and yours is a must read. Take care of yourself and family and keep your voice on the air. We need your positive energy. God Bless.” Valerie McGregor, listener

“I was a guest on Cynthia Brian’s radio program, BE THE STAR YOU ARE!®, Cynthia is very articulate and more than this, when there was a technical glitch, she was also very patient. It has long been my belief that whatever a person sincerely thinks they are, this they will become. There is a story of an American Indian, who finds an eagle’s egg on the ground. Searching in vain for the nest, he puts it under a prairie chicken to hatch. When the eagle comes out, he looks around to see what he is supposed to be doing. He sees the other prairie chickens rising a few feet above the earth, then loudly cawing and scratching at the soil. He does this, too, for his whole life. Near the end of that life, he sees an eagle proudly flying overhead. He asks in astonishment “What is that?” An elderly prairie chicken tell him, “that is an eagle. Why he can fly right up to the sun. But don’t you ever try that. You are just a prairie chicken like the rest of us.” And so he dies, thinking he is a prairie chicken, having spent his entire life rising only a few feet above the earth. If only he had known he was an eagle, why he might have flown right up to the sun! This is what Cynthia Brian brings to the airwaves. This radio program is dedicated to telling others that they are eagles, not prairie chickens. Father John Powell, SJ, Loyola University, author of “Happiness is an Inside Job” and “Fully Human, Fully Alive”. 

“It was a pleasure to be on your show. You have a warmth that sparkles across the airwaves! You have created something truly special and I’m glad I could be part of it. Thank you very much for your support and for your kind words. I really appreciate you taking the time to write them. It really means a lot. Noah St. John, author of “Permission to Succeed”. 

“Cynthia, your warmth, open heartedness and abiding interest and dedication to what truly matters in life created an instant bridge, so that being interviewed by you was more like having a chat with a dear friend. You bring boundless energy to making the world a more compassionate and loving place. Many fond regards.” Arlene Bernstein, author, “Growing Season” 

“Thanks for doing a great interview with me regarding my book, “The Power of Focus”. Your show is upbeat, positive energy and your ability to ask meaningful questions make it so easy to discuss the relevant issues. This is important work that you do offering the exchange of ideas and strategies that will benefit all of your listeners.” Les Hewitt, author of “The Power of Focus”. 

“How wonderful to have my book “Reel Spirit: A Guide to Movies that Inspire, Explore and Empower” recognized by BE THE STAR YOU ARE!®. The program and Reel Spirit share the important goal of letting people know they do have choices for inspirational viewing. I salute BE THE STAR YOU ARE!®, for joining me in spreading the word about inspirational, empowering movies. Spirit is certainly doing glorious work through BE THE STAR YOU ARE!®.” Raymond Teague, author of Reel Spirit 

“Cynthia thanks for your lovely note and message. Keep up the good work. It feels nice to have someone care and come from the heart.” Dr. Bernie Siegel, Author of “Prescriptions for Life and Love, Medicine, and Miracles”.

“Our interview was direct and very pleasant.  Cynthia is a great host.”  Paul Sladkus, Good NewsBroadcast.com

Since my book, This Blessed Mess, Finding Hope Amidst Life’s Chaos, was published last fall, I have been on my radio programs.  My experience of the interview with Cynthia Brian was my favorite of them all.  She is certainly a STAR as an interviewer.  Her warmth and enthusiasm, the depth of her reflections about my book, the personal level at which she engaged in the exchange were outstanding.  Her commitment to positive programming was exemplified in her comments.  She offered encouragement for her listeners as she underlined the hope and joy that are themes of my book.  At the end of our time I found myself wishing she lived next door instead of on the opposite side of the country!” Patricia Livingston, author, This Blessed Mess, Find Hope Amidst Life’s Chaos
