This week's show highlights:

• Teens and dating abuse
• Nutrition and children

Growing up in a small New Jersey town (complete with horse farms and cornfields) gave Suzanne Casamento plenty of time to make up stories. She earned her BFA in Creative Writing from Emerson College. Her stories and articles have been published in Seventeen and Teen. Suzanne's debut Young Adult novel, Fingerprints, is loosely based on a story that appeared in Seventeen. Her second novel, Choosing Tally, is a companion novel to Fingerprints in which Savanna, Tally and Jane return in a story told from Tally's point of view. Both stories are a lot like her 16th summer in New Jersey, when suddenly things weren't so boring anymore. Suzanne currently lives in Los Angeles.

Kathryn Kemp Guylay is a certified nutritional counselor with a master's degree in business and a successful career as a management consultant. She is the founder of the national non-profit organization Nurture and Healthy Solutions of Sun Valley. Kathryn is a speaker to various organizations, including non-profits, schools and corporations. Kathryn is the host of her own radio show on wellness on KDPI 88.5 FM.  Kathryn is the author of the award-winning and bestselling adult book on wellness, Mountain Mantras: Wellness and Life Lessons from the Slopes (September 15, 2015) and the upcoming children's book about healthy eating, Give It  Go, Eat a Rainbow.

So pull up a chair, shake up a cocktail, and kick up your heels while you tune in to the refreshingly real talk about what it takes to be a functional - and fun - parent in today's wild world of raising kids.
