Following Your Intuition

Stephanie Arnold & Dr. Julie Levitt

“The day my son was born, I died. I had premonitions it was going to happen, but no on believed me. Even more unbelievable is what I would see when I flatlined....””

— Stephanie Arnold

Tonight our show is "Following You Intuition." Stephanie Arnold (in picture above) not only died while giving birth, but lives to tell the story. Join us, as we look at the chain of events that happened leading up to that day and why following her intuition saved her life.

How Life and Laughter Go Hand In Hand

Coming up on The Whitney Reynolds Show we are talking a lighter topic- Life and Laughter. This week we look at how laughter overall makes life better.

Little did I know, when I was taping this show just a few week's later we would find out I was pregnant. Becoming a mom of twins and hosting a show leaves a lot of room for things to go wrong, major stresses to pop up and nerves to be shot, however I have learned that life is so much better with a smile. In life we can dwell on our problems or learn to laugh through our lessons.

This week's show is all about just that, LIFE AND LAUGHTER. Make sure to tune in on Monday May 2nd on Lakeshore PBS at 6:30 PM as talk through this topic with experts, celebrities and folks that have worked firsthand with this topic.

This past weekend was the first ever "A Night With The Whitney Reynolds Show" Gala! It was extremely special because our family, friends and viewers had a chance to come together and get to know the show better. We featured topics close to heart and also raised money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society! Cherry on top- it was my big 3-0 birthday and at 9 PM we found out our twins' genders with everyone who attended.

We had the most amazing food vendors in Chicago bring their favorite dishes. BIG THANKS to- Johnny Van's Smokehouse, Kitty O'Sheas, Heartfelt Catering, Beef and Barley, Kenmare Catering, Rachel Rosenberg Arbonne Treats, Reggies Live, Nothing Bundt Cakes, Dinosaur Bar-B-Que and Goddess and Grocer. Take a look at my 30th birthday cake provided by Windy City Savories and Sweets!

The live piano music was flowing thanks to David Rothstein and the flower arrangements from Stems made the evening complete. On each table we featured topics that have aired on our show over the years. Some of them included Domestic Violence, Fear and Cancer. This whole event was a chance for our 250 guests to understand what we are all about and that is: creating a show that provokes positive change through tough topics.

Since the event fell so close to our 20 week ultrasound (2 days before) we decided not to find out the genders until the gala. At 9 PM we called everyone to the front and unwrapped two boxes with our twins' genders. WATCH- https://www.facebook.com/WhitneyReynoldsW3/videos/vb.9203122/10102604877591313/?type=3&theater

As you can see from the pictures above we are OVER THE MOON for our little Twin A- Marlowe McKinnley Heiner and Twin B- David Acheson Heiner III "Acher." It was special to share this moment with everyone who attended.

We rounded out the night with raising just shy of $3,000 for LLS and announced our new season coming to Lakeshore PBS April 25th at 6:30 PM.

This was an evening I will cherish forever and it wouldn't have been possible without support from all our sponsors (especially Volvo Of Oak Park), my loving husband and each of YOU.

XOXO,

Whitney
