Tune in as Patricia interviews Marci Shimoff, New York Time's best-selling author of 'Happy For No Reason: 7 Steps to Being Happy from the Inside Out'. She will discuss her new book, 'Love for No Reason: 7 Steps to Creating a Life of Unconditional Love', a groundbreaking, practical, and heart-opening book on how to create, experience, and sustain a life filled with love - the kind of love that isn't dependent on another person, situation, or romantic partner, but comes from within and lasts.

"I can't thank you enough for the excellent coaching you gave to prepare me for Powerful Prayer on Voice America. The time and help you gave in writing promos, intros, rejoiners, etc., was excellent. You were continually moving me to higher ground so that I could be a more effective host. And your critiques and comments during each segment of my beginning shows were invaluable. You got right to the point, told me what worked, what needed improving, and always made me feel as if I was going to be a very good talk show host, even when I had many doubts--and some days still do! I'm still new at this role, but your encouragement has been so supportive.

"Patricia’s coaching was invaluable, concise and straight to the point. Her critiquing of the show, segment by segment was extremely helpful.  Patricia showed me the ins and outs of hosting in just a few sessions.  I can’t tell you how attentive she was, her experience shined through in the details she caused me to consider.  Even though she is across the country, it felt like she was right next to me. I found her to be available, detailed, and always kept her promises.  I will be forever grateful for her priceless input and I could not have done it without her.”

You are a consummate pro and a delight to work with.  I believe in doing things right when I commit to something and your coaching helped me deliver from the first show. I feel so well prepared that my nervousness before the show has decreased tremendously. You have had a huge positive impact on me and my show!!!

I could not have done this first show without your help.Your regular calls made me focus on what I had to do and got me doing the right things. You built up my confidence and helped me in very practical ways such as how to get guests. Your comments after the show have helped me see where I need to improve.  I know this sounds like a commercial but I can’t give you enough credit.  What I liked most of all was your uncanny way of knowing just what I needed. So many consultants try to fill up time because they have been paid for it.  You knew when I got it and did not labor a point just to make up time. Thanks! "

"Patricia Raskin is a wonderful coach and has taught us many things about media and radio in a UNIQUELY supportive, informative and professional manner.  We are very selective about who we choose to be our consultants, and Patricia IS not only one who made the list, but has delivered in a highly "settle for more" manner."

"As the featured TV dentist on ABC's Extreme Makeover, I was really apprehensive as to my own radio show. Even though I have had a lot of experience on TV radio was new to me. With the guidance of Patricia Raskin not only did I feel prepared and directed, but I had a great time doing my radio show and it was well received. I definitely would not have had the confidence to my show without her help."

Patricia Raskin’s radio coaching was invaluable to me! She really showed me the ins and outs of hosting, while teaching me to be my own personality! Her expertise and experience in the radio business came through at every step of the process. Patricia gave me feedback and guidance on my show format, design, production ideas, and marketing. She knows what works! Her critiquing of my show, segment by segment was extremely helpful. She even coached me on my interviewing skills and style including, my timing and questions. I definitely felt like my show and my concerns were her first priority! she has remained in contact, given me feedback and suggested possible program guests.
