Life on Earth episode 19 Stephanie on breaking the cycle

I have to admit I didn't know what to title this episode. While the topic was "rehabilitation from substance abuse", that's such a wild understatement of what happened when we spoke to Stephanie. Stephanie shared her own story of substance abuse, and recovery...  but the incredible benevolence in this women's story and life work, go well beyond personal rehabilitation. Stephanie has now devoted her career to helping people break through the stigma's and barriers to better their lives as they emerge from the grips of addiction. No matter where you come out on the issue of substance abuse and WHAT the barriers to rehabilitation are, Stephanie's message and work will move you to believe their is hope for those who struggle to regain their independence as they get clean and re enter the work force. Stephanie's candor and vulnerability are magnetic and before we even finished recording this episode, Adam and I were already texting each other that there need to be a part 2-3-4-etc.... to this episode. I can't thank Stephanie enough for her willingness to speak with us.

Life on Earth episode 18 Lissa Rose

Adam and I got to speak to an intuitive counselor named Lissa Rose. We left this episode much more conversational and raw, because honestly, Lissa has too many areas of interest and information for us to really pigeon hole this in to one topic... which made editing different. You can find more information about Lissa and her areas of focus on LissaRoseCounseling.com or her instagram at all_things_woo.

Life on Earth episode 17 Azaria discusses Shamanic principles and healing

Azaria was kind enough to record with us twice, due to a technical issue with Zoom, and it was ABSOLUTELY a gift to Adam and I that she was so kind with her time. She was a wealth of information on principles that I had very little knowledge of. As I am writing this update, I am tempted to break down what we discussed, but I would be doing a book report of great information that someone else said. It wouldn't do her justice. Listen for yourself, and grab a pen and paper to jot down some notes. There were some technical issues at the 40 minute mark, and editing it to sound seamless wasn't possible.

Life on Earth episode 16 Ed ends up back in the ER... different issue, but same bad luck

Ed ended up back in the ER. Not for anything as serious as the A Fib situation, but of course nothing that walking calamity does, ever goes off without a fun hitch. What nightmare can you imagine for an overweight man, than having a medical emergency that puts a focus on his tummy. How about having the nurse and Doctor both be.. well, you'll just have to listen and find out. Spoiler alert: He basically lived out an amalgam of all hi Jr High nightmares rolled into one gut wrenching (no pun intended) experience.

Life on Earth episode 16 One on One Ed's hospital visit

Last week I had a medical scare, and Adam helps shed some light on just what I was going through. I have finally started having prolonged success in losing weight, so why did I just have a heart scare now?!?! WTF!!! Light headed, fluttery feeling heart, and a near faint, sent me to the ER with a pulse of 210. As I was being prepared to have my heart shocked back to normal with electricity, the gravity of the situation started to settle in. I am so thankful I have someone in my life to exploit my health for podcast ratings, all under the guise of "clarifying what happened and what my long term prognosis will be". This is a two birds one stone scenario for us for sure... ratings and peace of mind.
