Something to Share

It’s easy to get lost in the day-to-day happenings of our busy lives. But when was the last time you stopped and asked yourself what truly inspires you? What message do you want to share with the world? Host and former Bachelor contestant Sydney Lotuaco believes we all have something to share, something we're going through, and something that we need to hear. She bypasses the superficial promotional pitches and offers a platform for people to share what’s really in their hearts. Tune in to Something to Share every Wednesday for down-to-earth conversations with inspiring and entertaining people (many of which you'll recognize) about that special something they want to share most with the world.
