Down To Wander

In this episode, I chat with Katie. She shares about her time growing up in Ukraine as a missionary, her experiences in Ukraine and her love for the country, and the impacts the recent war has had on her emotionally. Big thanks to Katie for her patience as this was recorded in early May and I just got around to editing it with how crazy things have been.

In this episode, I chat with comedian, musician, and actor Zach Dresch. In this episode, we talk about his comedy and music career, how his anxiety and depression has impacted him, his struggles with body image issues, and how the stage helps him to cope. Big thanks to Zach for his patience as this interview was recorded back in April! Also want to note that this guy has blown up in the last few months. It seems like every month I'm hearing about more and more accomplishments coming from his determination to entertain. Get to know more about Zach here:

I wouldn’t necessarily call this an episode but this week I share a little update regarding the future of the podcast. As much as I want to keep producing weekly content, it just can’t continue due to the current circumstances. Listen as I explain what’s currently going on and what the future plans are for the podcast.

In this episode, I chat with Matt. Matt shares about growing up with a mother who struggled with alcoholism, how 9/11 turned his life upside down in a unique way, and how many of his years have been spent caretaking for his parents. Matt openly shares his struggles with supporting his family but also desiring his independence and freedom from the stress that accompanies such a role.

In this episode, I continue my conversation with Ali from last week. We continue to discuss her rocky road of recovery, her exposure to patient brokering and other predatory actions of some addiction providers, how her relapse after seven years of sobriety was triggered due to her desire to start a family and her bipolar disorder, and how she continues to fight daily using her “secret sauce” for recovery.
