Sinopse

We all need to face the question: How do we treat our bodies? Do we honor and nurture them? Or do we exploit and hurt them? And why? On this show, we’ll be cutting through some big topics: Is plastic surgery an act of self-love or an endless quest for something unachievable or even self-destructive? Have we driven our bodies in other ways to prove something about ourselves? On this edition of InsideOut, we’ll be interviewing Dr. Carol Hollan, an award-winning plastic surgeon with 30 years experience. She’ll be sharing what it’s like to be on the other side of the knife. What motivated her to become a plastic surgeon? How does she handle people’s egos and expectations? What has it cost her and her body to be a surgeon? Joining her will be her husband Bob Hettiger, a man paralyzed since 21. Bob co-founded Challenged America, a disabled sailor’s organization, and he’ll be talking about his urge to be a hero and the price he’s been willing to pay. Tune in, call in, email your questions.
