About this episode

This episode explores the themes of fatherhood and personal growth through the stories of Mookie Betts and Sasha Allen.

Paul’s Positive Podcast, hosted by Amy Iverson, brings you two uplifting human-interest stories about growth, love, and the meaning of real strength. First, Amy looks at baseball star Mookie Betts and the way fatherhood has changed him. His love for his daughters, gratitude for his wife, and happiness in simple family moments reveal a softer, more grounded side of success. It’s a heartfelt reminder that strength can look gentle, caring, and full of love. Amy also shares the inspiring journey of performer Sasha Allen, whose path through film, Broadway, television, and touring shows that success does not always happen in a straight line. With motherhood and life experience shaping her work, Allen’s story highlights courage, personal growth, and the power of bringing kindness and mentorship into creative spaces. For Paul, this episode is a warm reflection on how true greatness is often found not only in achievement, but in vulnerability, gratitude, and becoming more fully yourself.
