Daytime's Bad Boy Talks With Cyrus Webb on Conversations LIVE

Many have gotten to know (and hate him) on soaps like BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL and YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS as the bad boy Deacon Sharpe. When he talks with Conversations LIVE host Cyrus Webb, though, he is nothing but a 'gentleman', discussing his journey as an actor, how he is using his celebrity to bring attention to issues like bullying and his new cookbook that is really so much more than that.

CONVERSATIONS: Feeding Your Love Of Life!

Conversations LIVE Shares Answer To 'Should Love Ever Hurt?'

Thanks to the over 3k who tuned in live or by podcast to Conversations LIVE's discussion SHOULD LOVE EVER HURT? on Saturday, October 15, 2011. Host Cyrus Webb was joined by survivors Freda Emmons, Dr. Loren Due and Patrick Dati as they shared their very personal stories of abuse, and how they have been able to move forward and are now in a position to help others along the way.


In the discussion Webb focused on the following three points when it comes from making the transition from being a victim to a victor and survivor:

1) Speaking out. Not allowing the abuser to have to power over you by causing your silence.
2) Forgiveness. Even if it is something that seems to come slowly towards the abuser, making sure that you have forgiven yourself and refuse to blame yourself for what was done.
3) Knowing that you are not alone. Making sure that you take advantage of the support group available to you all around the world. This will also let others know that they are not by themselves and may aide in their speaking out as well.
