Some conversations arrive exactly when we need them, and March 1 is one of those nights.
From 7–9 PM Eastern on AM970 Radio, SHAKE IT OFF WITH MERT & LUCAS, LIVE! brings together two guests whose work, in very different spheres, explores how we present ourselves, how we’re remembered, and how the choices we make shape the stories others carry forward. It’s an evening that moves from the power of expression to the legal architecture of legacy — revealing how identity, intention, and planning all shape the lives we lead.
Hour 1: Chris Gillett — Headshot Photographer & Expression Coach
The first hour features Chris Gillett, a nationally recognized headshot photographer and expression coach whose work blends psychology, performance, and visual storytelling. Through his photography practice and coaching programs, Gillett teaches clients how micro‑expressions, emotional clarity, and presence translate on camera — and how a single image can shift perception, opportunity, and confidence.
His approach is rooted in authenticity: helping people project who they truly are, rather than who they think they’re supposed to be. Expect a conversation that explores why expression matters, how the camera reveals (and conceals) truth, and what it means to show up with intention in a world defined by images.

Hour 2: Don D. Ford, Esq. — Probate & Estate Attorney, Ford + Bergner LLP
In the second hour, the show turns to Don D. Ford, Esq., a Texas‑based probate and estate attorney and Managing Partner at Ford + Bergner LLP, a firm known for its work in probate, estate planning, guardianship, and estate litigation. Ford guides families through some of life’s most consequential transitions — from navigating probate to structuring estates that protect assets, honor intentions, and minimize conflict.
His work sits at the intersection of law, legacy, and human complexity, offering clarity in a process that often feels overwhelming or emotionally charged. Ford brings a grounded, practical perspective on how to plan wisely, avoid common pitfalls, and ensure that the legacies we leave behind reflect our values and intentions.
