When you fall in love with a professional athlete, you sign up for a life in the spotlight. But when the love of your life is super-star basketball legend, Earvin Magic Johnson, the light in which you stand is brighter than anyone could ever imagine. Cookie Johnson, mother, devoted philanthropist, passionate spokesperson and NY Times Best-selling author, thought she knew exactly what she was in for when she married her college sweetheart, Magic Johnson. With the guidance of her faith, family and friends and the counsel of the other “basketball wives” Cookie found herself settling into her new life as one of the most well-known, first ladies of the NBA. But what if one day your husband held a press conference and made an announcement that would change not only your world, but THE world -- forever? Would you let fear win and turn your back on society before it could turn it’s back on you? Or would you have the courage to use that press conference to help galvanize a movement that would give a face and a voice to the thousands of people who were dying everyday from HIV and AIDS.

What if everyone that you ever met told you about their fond childhood memories of your father? Can you imagine what it'd be like to have a dad who was a hero, not just to you but to hundreds and thousands of dedicated daily viewers? Actress, singer, producer and advocate, Holly Robinson Peete's father, Matt Robinson, was the original Gordon on Sesame Street and went on to become one of the most prolific actor/writer/producers of the 20th century. But to Holly, her father Matt wasn't just Gordon, he was her rock, her mentor and her safe place.  But what if one day your "safe place" was diagnosed with an illness from which there was no cure? Would you use your clout as a celebrity to funnel money into research? Or would you shift your role from daughter to caregiver and dutifully focus on meeting the day to day needs of the man who'd given you so much? And in turn realize others might need aid in this part of the process too?  More From Holly Robinson Peete: Learn more about her organization HollyRod Foundation Finding Holly Robinson Peete: Twitter & Instagram: @hollyrpeete The Only One In The Room is looking for an intern!

What would it be like to be THAT kid? You know the one who refused to dress like other students, the one who had piercings and worshipped punk rock and was always so loaded throughout high school that everyone wondered how they even graduated? John Feldmann, award-winning music producer, writer, mixer and acclaimed-band-Goldfinger-frontman, was a musically gifted punk rocker who grew up in the Santa Cruz mountains of California. But even as a teenager, John's inability to stay sober for more than a few months at a time threatened his relationship with his family, his music and eventually, even threatened his life. But what if when you turned twenty-one, the magical age while everyone else is celebrating taking their first legal drink, you make the decision to take your last one...ever? Would you follow your dream of making a living in an industry known for its decadent lifestyle? Or would you abandon your ambitions and choose a safer path, one with less risk of being led into temptation?
