On Monday, April 22, CBS Mornings welcomes New York Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson, life coach and bestselling author Matthew Hussey, and mental health advocate April Simpkins, who co-authored a book with her late daughter, Cheslie Kryst.
Nate Burleson, a former football player and current co-host of CBS Mornings, sits down with Jalen Brunson, the New York Knicks’ star point guard. Brunson, who was drafted by the Dallas Mavericks in 2018, has been a pivotal player for the Knicks this season, leading them to the second seed in the Eastern Conference. He was recently named an NBA All-Star for the first time in his career and set multiple NBA records for three-point shooting. Brunson’s impressive form is expected to be a key topic of discussion during the interview.
Matthew Hussey, a life coach, YouTube personality, and bestselling author, joins the show to discuss his book, “Love Life: How to Raise Your Standards, Find Your Person, and Live Happily (No Matter What).” Hussey is known for his expertise in dating and relationships, having helped millions of women find love through his books, seminars, and training videos. His practical advice and confident approach have earned him a dedicated following worldwide.
In a segment exclusive to CBS Mornings, April Simpkins, a certified HR professional and mental health advocate, appears on television for the first time since her daughter, Cheslie Kryst, passed away. Simpkins co-authored the book, “By the Time You Read This: The Space Between Cheslie’s Smile and Mental Illness—Her Story in Her Own Words”, which provides insight into Kryst’s struggles with mental health and her journey toward healing. Kryst, a former Miss USA, used her platform to raise awareness about mental health and encourage others to seek help. Simpkins continues her daughter’s legacy by sharing their story and advocating for more open conversations around mental illness.
