Voice for the Voiceless - Answering the Hard Questions W / Devin Fish

In this raw and powerful conversation, U.S. Army Veteran, writer, and motivational speaker Devin Fish shares how he transformed a childhood of instability, poverty, and trauma into a life of purpose. He opens up about battling self‑hatred and addiction before the Army, and how a single question — “Do I want to die?” — became the turning point that changed everything. While deployed in Kuwait, he began writing the book that forced him to confront his deepest wounds. With more than seventy introspective prompts, his work challenges others to do the same. We talk about the prompt that impacted him most, the role military structure played in his healing, and the pressure to “be strong” that often kept him silent. He speaks candidly about breaking generational cycles, embracing vulnerability, and redefining strength as both a man and a soldier. Whether you’re facing your own hard questions or searching for a path forward, this episode offers clarity, courage, and hope. A testament to resilience and the power of choosing to live.

Voice for the Voiceless – Project 55 W/ Justin Goodman

Justin Goodman, Co‑Founder of the nonprofit Project 55 and co‑host of The Project 55 Podcast, brings honesty, curiosity, and lived experience to a show dedicated to transforming how we respond to mental health crises. Born from a gap Justin saw firsthand—where everyday people wanted to help but didn’t know how—Project 55 exists to equip communities with practical mental health first‑response skills. And the podcast is where those conversations come alive. Justin dives into the realities of crisis support, the surprising reactions from workplaces and communities after training, and what it would take for mental health education to become as common as CPR. Along the way, he sits with guests whose stories shift perspectives, spark new ideas, and energize the mission. Justin also brings his own journey into the conversation. Living with bipolar disorder and chronic pain, he reflects on the turning point that led him to speak openly, how sharing his story has reshaped his understanding of it, and the people who have supported him along the way. He talks candidly about balancing public advocacy with protecting his own mental health, and what he wishes more people understood about living with a mental health condition. At its core, The Project 55 Podcast is about building a world where no one faces a mental health crisis alone. Justin’s hope for the next five years—and beyond—is simple but bold: a society that responds to mental health with skill, compassion, and humanity.
