Patty Chang Anker - “Facing Forty Upside Down”

After a lifetime of living nowhere near the edge, Patty Chang Anker, a former Director of Media Relations for The New York Times and a veteran book publicist had enough. Declaring a year of saying yes to things that frighten her, she launched a blog - “Facing Forty Upside Down.” Her inspiring and entertaining blog is now getting a lot of buzz, and is featured in Good Housekeeping magazine January 2011 issue. She is also on Babble.com 2010 Top Nominated Mom Blogs List. As the mother of two adopted daughters with special needs and a certified yoga instructor, Patty realized she couldn’t expect her children or students to go outside their comfort zone if she wasn’t willing to do it herself. In Facing Forty Upside Down, Patty takes readers boogie boarding, diving, ice skating, fishing, river rafting, and eye-to-eye with a crocodile in the wild, all the while chronicling the ups and downs of daily life with humor and heart. Patty and I will be discussing about her life’s journey, her current mission, and the power from within. Please call 347.327.9995 on Tuesday January 25th from 10-11 am U.S. CT to join Patty and I live on the air with your questions and comments.
