Unlike typical magazine interviews, Lives Charmed provides information we do not usually hear -- interviewees highlight the significant events and miracles of their lives and illuminate the lessons learned along the way. The discussions are intimate and poignant: prayer and daily disciplines; balancing work and family; recovery from incest and addictions; near-death experiences; and more. Funny stories are shared and the "secrets" behind great achievements are revealed. The people interviewed -- Arnold Palmer, Woody Harrelson, Leeza Gibbons, Robert Townsend, Efrem Zimbalist Jr., Paul Williams, Catherine Oxenberg and ten others -- give practical ideas about making the most of life's experiences. They disclose their vulnerability by sharing their joys and successes as well as their often shockingly painful stories.
