Her philosophy, simply put: Health isn’t a number on the scale or how often we exercise, but our lives as a whole.

Several years ago, Erin was not at peace with her body — despite her wealth of
knowledge on diet and exercise. She was always on a diet, and yet never reached her goal weight.

As a graduate of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and a Food Addiction
Counselor, Erin was well versed in the science behind health. As a Certified
Spinning® Instructor, Vinyasa Yoga instructor, and Classical Pilates instructor, she understood the mechanics of health and fitness as well.

Through a lot of trial and error, Erin found true nutrition to be the missing piece of the puzzle. It was then that Erin started her last diet, which ultimately became her food plan and the basis of her health coaching program, as well as her book Why Can’t I Stick to My Diet? The book is currently available online at Amazon and in bookstores everywhere.

Taking on all of these new responsibilities, on top of running his own law firm, was extremely overwhelming. Given the utter lack of even minimal help from other family members in dealing with his brother’s accident and other issues, Tom returned to his reliance on alcohol and drugs as a crutch to keep up with all of these demands.

This resulted in Tom winding up at rehab in upstate New York in May of 2011. When he entered rehab he was 140 pounds, had bleeding gums from frequent cocaine use, cardiac and pulmonary problems from smoking two packs of cigarettes a day, and was near bankruptcy. There was no doubt Tom was a mess. When he left rehab one month later, Tom was 177 pounds with a muffin top, his gums were healing, and he faced the challenge of cleaning up the messes created in every aspect of his life.

Nutrition, exercise and a regular twelve-step practice have helped Tom overcome these obstacles. In the last five years, he has rarely been sick; he set out to eat right and exercise every day and on August 1, 2015, Tom won a physique contest for men over 35.

Tom has made all his financial amends and no longer has the specter of bankruptcy hanging over his head. He was certified as a personal trainer in sports nutrition and weight management, all while maintaining a thriving law practice. After two years of freedom from alcohol and drugs, Tom was able to give up cigarettes and nicotine.

In 2013, Tom graduated from the Institute for Integrated Nutrition. He has been free of alcohol and drugs since May 11, 2011, and cigarettes and nicotine since September 27, 2013. Tom measures his success by the differences between the life he was living when I entered rehab and his life today. It seems like looking back on a different person and a different lifetime. Through the grace of God, and by utilizing the twelve-steps and tools in this book, Tom was able to achieve his goals of sobriety and overall health.

In 2014, after watching the last of an entire family die from drugs, the last two from heroin, Mr. Synan met with other members in Hamilton County and helped form the Hamilton County Heroin Coalition where he sits on the Steering Committee and Chair Interdiction. Mr. Synan coordinates law enforcement efforts to reduce supply and works with other members to help reduce demand.

Mr. Synan was asked to testify in Washington D.C. at a U.S. Senate Homeland Security Committee giving testimony on synthetic opiates and the impact Fentanyl and Carefentinal have had on the country. Mr. Synan was a speaker with President Clinton and other distinguished panelists for the Clinton Foundation discussing the opioid crisis at Johns Hopkins University. Mr.

On the show today, we talk about why she switched careers and the surprising similarities. We also discuss some fantastic programs and tips Julie has, including how to stay gluten-free while traveling, something with which I personally struggle.

As a certified Nutrition Consultant and Health Coach, Julie inspires individuals who are on a mission to feel better physically and mentally in order to boost daily energy and productivity. Rather than focusing solely on what one should and should not eat, Julie focuses on long-lasting habit changes and mindfulness that provide individuals with the proper tools to lead a healthier lifestyle.

Julie believes that being healthy is about maintaining a balance that allows you to enjoy life while creating the proper foundation to give you a better tomorrow. She knows for a fact that it is important to reach the optimal level of both physical and emotional health because, without one, we cannot enjoy the other. This has led to her personal motto, “It is not about being skinny, it’s about being your BEST WHOLE SELF”, for which her health coaching business is named.

In addition to numerous public speaking engagements at companies like AstraZeneca, Athleta, and Morgan Stanley, Julie has also been featured on several podcasts, including iHeartRadio and RadioMD, and has served as a guest on MyNEWPhilly.com, ReachMD, DisruptED TV, PHL17, and Times Square Today. She is also currently the host of DisruptHealth, an online TV program creating compelling conversations about health and wellness.

A voice for those who are too embarrassed to come forward and admit their struggles with substances. Most importantly, James is a voice in the fight against the out-dated stigma that has been placed on the struggling addict stating that one shall no longer feel compelled to remain anonymous in their struggles with drugs and alcohol.

Today I welcome James Sweasy to the show. James, a true street to success story, currently lives in Louisville, KY with his girlfriend, Alaina, and their two children. James is an active member of the recovery community in Louisville and its’ surrounding areas. James can be found speaking about his personal story of recovery and providing hope for those in a homeless shelter all the way to the Capital building. James is best known for his social media presence on James Sweasy Live and as a radio host on RecoveryRadio.FM.

"We're simply three guys who wondered what if you could create an entire feature film using just an iPhone. No crew, no lighting, no makeup, just the camera and the assets we had before us. That's how we decided to focus the story on our actual lives and use ourselves and basically our entire lives as the sets and subject matter."

Brian Drolet is originally from Queens, NY, and started his acting career in NY theaters as well as several MTV shows where he met Jordan Eubanks who is originally from North Carolina, the two became best friends and went on to both star on season one of MTV's The Hills as well as started producing independent films together. That is how they met Chris Livingston, an NYU Graduate Film School alumni, while making the indie feature Dumbbells, a comedy about a gym staff.

Collaborating and operating in such a freeing medium we decided to take advantage of all the iPhone had to offer, and along with a Moondog anamorphic lens, an Osmo Mobile gimbal, and some lavaliere mics we set out to shoot a full feature not worried about big names or big budgets and instead focused on heart and story.

We unpack what Annie means by "controlling drinking" and how it is a very individual thing, it means different things to different people.

How did Annie go from two bottles of wine each day to complete abstinence? Find out what she means when she explains, "I stopped trying to stop drinking."

I asked Annie what was it in her subconscious that was keeping her stuck? And how did she unlock this key theory to help her control her drinking? Listen in to hear how she discovered it really came down to three layers of belief; substance, society, and self.

Her next book is called The Alcohol Experiment, a 30-day challenge that will help people find the answer to the big question, "Would my life be happier if I was drinking less?"

Background
Annie Grace is the author of This Naked Mind: Control Alcohol, Find Freedom, Discover Happiness & Change Your Life. Annie grew up in a one-room log cabin without running water or electricity outside of Aspen, Colorado. She discovered a passion for marketing and after graduating with a Masters of Science (Marketing) she dove into corporate life.

At the age of 26, Annie was the youngest vice president in a multinational company, and her drinking career began in earnest. At 35, in a global C-level marketing role, she was responsible for marketing in 28 countries and drinking almost two bottles of wine a night.

Knowing she needed a change but unwilling to submit to a life of deprivation and stigma, Annie set out to find a painless way to regain control. Annie no longer drinks and has never been happier. She left her executive role to write this book and share This Naked Mind with the world.

In her free time, Annie loves to ski, travel (26 countries and counting), and enjoy her beautiful family. Annie lives with her husband and three children in the Colorado mountains.

We unpack what Annie means by "controlling drinking" and how it is a very individual thing, it means different things to different people.

How did Annie go from two bottles of wine each day to complete abstinence? Find out what she means when she explains, "I stopped trying to stop drinking."

I asked Annie what was it in her subconscious that was keeping her stuck? And how did she unlock this key theory to help her control her drinking? Listen in to hear how she discovered it really came down to three layers of belief; substance, society, and self.

Her next book is called The Alcohol Experiment, a 30-day challenge that will help people find the answer to the big question, "Would my life be happier if I was drinking less?"

Background
Annie Grace is the author of This Naked Mind: Control Alcohol, Find Freedom, Discover Happiness & Change Your Life. Annie grew up in a one-room log cabin without running water or electricity outside of Aspen, Colorado. She discovered a passion for marketing and after graduating with a Masters of Science (Marketing) she dove into corporate life.

At the age of 26, Annie was the youngest vice president in a multinational company, and her drinking career began in earnest. At 35, in a global C-level marketing role, she was responsible for marketing in 28 countries and drinking almost two bottles of wine a night.

Knowing she needed a change but unwilling to submit to a life of deprivation and stigma, Annie set out to find a painless way to regain control. Annie no longer drinks and has never been happier. She left her executive role to write this book and share This Naked Mind with the world.

In her free time, Annie loves to ski, travel (26 countries and counting), and enjoy her beautiful family. Annie lives with her husband and three children in the Colorado mountains.

In 2012, Michael went on to produce and co­-direct the award-winning feature documentary “In Danger of Being Discovered”. In 2014, he wrote and directed a series of 4 music videos for the Grammy Ballot nominated singer/songwriter Lizzy Marella. He was nominated for a regional Emmy® at the 39th Boson/New England Emmy Awards for the PSA “It’s Time. Let’s Talk.” in 2017 Michael won the New Hampshire Filmmaker of the year award at the New Hampshire Film Festival.

Michael’s current project is the feature documentary film “The Heroin Effect” (Now available on Amazon, iTunes and GooglePlay), which was inspired by the opioid crisis that is currently plaguing the country.

The Heroin Effect (blog post excerpt) -

"I am not an addict. I am not in recovery. I don't have a personal connection to the opioid crisis, or at least that's what I thought before the production of The Heroin Effect. Three and a half years ago I started filming a documentary film about the opioid epidemic. And that process changed not only my perception of a disease, but it also made me want to create a film that would do the same for others by letting the characters in the film share their stories in their own words."

This is an amazing film, unlike any other which focuses on the current addiction crisis. I highly recommend this fantastic piece of work!

Since then he has released a solo album, Sophrosyne. He is involved in the recovery community and continues to speak about and teach the positive properties of music. This interview with Jam is a great introduction to the subject of music for recovery purposes, as well as the life of a man who is recovering despite the desperation of hitting rock-bottom many years ago. Listen along.

A Musician First
Jam talks about how he was a musician first and foremost before he began to experiment with drugs. Music was a great outlet for expression; it did wonders for him. But as he states during the interview, “it worked until it didn’t.”

Growing up in his teens and wanting to devote his life to music, Jam had a limited understanding of what being a successful musician meant. Chasing the ‘rockstar’ persona, he admits that his addiction was always present, it was just manifesting itself in different ways: through his ego, his anger, and so forth.

To hear this segment in Jam’s own words, tune in.

Real Estate, Record Label, and Recording Studio
Jam started making a decent amount of money while he was a musician. He was involved in some real estate, a record label, and owned his own recording studio.

In addition to his other pursuits, he was drinking and doing drugs; it was just a part of the lifestyle. It was normal. As he says, the only time quitting is ever possible is when things start to seem unmanageable. While you are touring in a rock band and are still functioning fine, the lifestyle seems sustainable during the day-by-day happenings. And then suddenly it catches up with you. Once the cash came in, his lifestyle of addiction and compulsion only continued. Eventually, though, the party had to stop.

Trying To Fill The Void
He was well on his way to become a millionaire musician. He had performed in fronts of screaming fans. But the hole inside of him was still prominent and just as large as it had always been. He was miserable and turned to the one thing that he found could actually numb that misery: heroin. For more on the events that led to his turning to heroin, listen along.

An Exemplar For The Recovering Community
There is pressure in being labeled as a musician who is in recovery; the community looks to Jam for additional support and guidance. And although there can be pressure, Jam says he loves it because it keeps him focused and holds him to a standard. He is in the position to reach out to a lot of different people who are struggling with addiction and will keep pursuing those aims.

Music is Medicine
Jam is involved with Music is Medicine, which is a non-profit that centers on showing the healing properties of music. Basically, the organization is focused on showing how music can become a part of an addict's recovery. Through benefit concerts with educational information, resources, and peer-to-peer recovery examples throughout, the musical events are a platform that brings everyone together through music. This platform is great because it is a way to deliver information to people that might otherwise have never gotten it. For more information listen along.

Strategic Playlists For Positive Triggers
Jam talks about how during his work with recovering addicts, music is used to frame the mindsets of those who might be triggered to take drugs again. Because music can be so powerful and elicit emotional responses like empathy, understanding, and so forth, the playlists that are made can be strategic tools used to keep recovering addicts on the right path. The moment they start to stray, the music can bring them back. For more, listen along!

Recovery Unplugged
Jam talks about his involvement with the organization and just how important experiential therapy is through the immersion of music. He reminds listeners not to ask “why the addiction?” But instead, to ask, “why the underlying pain?” For more on this powerful interview, tune in.

Not As Easy As You Think
To start, Chellie talks a little bit about how seemingly impossible writing a book seemed to her. Her clients had affirmed her ability to teach and convey considerable wisdom on financial matters, but they wanted her advice in book form. After struggling with the prospect of writing a book, she found the structure for The Wealthy Spirit that she wanted to utilize and did so with aplomb. The rest is best selling history.

Positive Affirmations
Chellie also states that for many people, the logical progression to financial success starts with the law of attraction and then the law of action. This means that positive thinking will ultimately spur the kinds of activities that are conducive to success. One wouldn’t expect an interview to go well when one’s mind has already determined a negative result. But there is also a limit to just how effective positive affirmations can be! Positive affirmations are very important to frame a successful action; but, as Chellie states, you can sit at a piano and make affirmations for hours--eventually, though, you will have to practice to get any good at playing.

Send Out Ships
Another key aspect of the episode is Chellie breaks down the importance of her famous saying: “send out ships.” Take positive actions in personal life and professional life. Don’t just send emails, but instead, call clients. Reach out to people and put positivity out into the world. She also breaks down the historical meaning of the phrase. It comes from a 19th-century instance where London merchants would load up their ships with provisions and send them out on yearlong endeavors with no means for communication. It would take a while, but eventually, their ship would come in, treasure and all! And so, she tells her friends, colleagues, and clients that you must send out a lot of ships. Ultimately, you will reap the rewards.

For much more, including poker, Chellie’s new program coming in February, taking risks, and plenty of other useful tidbits, listen along. You won’t want to miss it!

Coffee Treatment
Knowing the copious amounts of coffee that are consumed at treatment centers during an average attendee’s time spent in recovery, both Joe and Stephen knew they could make a difference by supplying high-quality coffee to each center. They also wanted to provide alternatives for recovering addicts who find themselves consuming sugary drinks and unhealthy foods after the 10:00 AM coffee cut-off time.

Focus on Nutrition
In addition to making the highest quality Recovery Coffee, they provide teas and sports drinks, as well as focus on nutrition and education to supplement the positive recovery habits they instill in participants. They really are making considerable strides in replacing the well-worn treatment center approach towards beverages and foods.

Worth it
Also, you can taste the love and quality with each cup of Recovery Coffee: both of them understand the need for absolutes and things to look forward to during the difficult road to recovery. Waking up and finding adequate motivation to tackle the program work and stay focused on treating addiction is much easier when the day has been started with an excellent cuppa joe. And during the interview, it is said that weak coffee is one of weakest links in treatment centers around the nation.

Recipe for Success
As Stephen Swisher states, most treatment centers offer weak coffee and then feed members high-carb, sugary foods. About 10:00 AM, most crash and want to go back to bed. That’s hardly a recipe for success. And so, Stephen and Joe will continue to supply the proper fuel to help everyone looking to recover from his or her addictions.

So far he has totaled over 7,600 miles on his bicycle and is planning an impressive ride from Key Largo, Florida to Seattle, Washington as a memorial to those who have lost their lives to overdose and substance abuse related suicide.

During our fascinating conversation, James shares his story of growing up in Philadelphia, MA in a dysfunctional family, and how that affected his outlook on life. The instability and inconsistencies of the situation eventually lead him to believe running away was his best options. And as a young teenager, he found himself on the streets, where he says it was actually more comfortable than at home.

This life wasn't easy though, and he found himself a "frequent-flyer" of detention centers, the life eventually landing him in a boot camp where he found a place that resonated, a place where he could excel.

James talks about how he stumbled upon the idea for his first "Ride for Recovery". This first ride from Florida to Los Angeles was totally spontaneous, and an instant success in bringing awareness to the addiction crisis.

His generosity and desire to help the addiction community is inspiring and his humbleness is refreshing. Discover how he does these tremendous rides, that it comes down to mental preparation and toughness more than anything.

James shares some highlights and unbelievable low points along his rides, including near-death experiences.

Why does he do it? What's his ultimate goal?

At 34, Amanda Meredith had it all – A successful career, a home, a child, and everything that should have made her happy. She was also crazy in love; his name was Cage, and their love would become her first addiction—but not her last. Some would say that love destroyed her, but what she let ravage her mind, body, and soul had nothing to do with love and everything to do with a deep-seated need to destroy herself.

With the prick of a needle and a shot of methamphetamine, she lost everything- her child, her career, and she lost Cage. Homeless and alone on the streets of Dallas, she became a statistic. A broken nobody that had hit the gutter and licked it. Her story is not for the faint of heart. It is, however, a true account of what a life lived without a true sense of self, without self-love, and addiction looks like.

Addict Chick: Sex, Drugs & Rock ‘N’ Roll is her heartbreak, her sorrow, and the story of how she fought like hell to save herself, with a little help from the Man above.

In this memoir, one woman proves that no matter who you are or how far you have fallen, nobody is beyond redemption.

About
Amanda Meredith is a recovering drug addict whose foray into the twisted and dark world of chemical dependency will profoundly change the way you view the disease of addiction. She has an amazing son, a crazy Doberman named Tempest and loves Rock ‘N’ Roll! She divides her time between Lexington, Kentucky and Tyler, Texas.

This melodic black-hearted dirge claws into the soul emancipating one from this psychologically infected world.

The diviner of this millenarian angst is Pete Mills, who writes, produces, and performs The Sweet Kills mandate. When gothic abrasions cast mysterious shadows The Sweet Kill passionately executes a sublime form of sophistication.

Driven by a genre bent obsession of 80’s new wave, 70’s punk, urban beats and a current neo-emo lyrical aesthetic, The Sweet Kill refracts the melancholic struggle between love and addiction in a beautifully unsettling fashion. Through this fractured dark distortion, The Sweet Kill exudes timelessness, transcendence, and redemption.

Close your eyes to see, life is but a dream, so let us forever sleep in the duality of The Sweet Kill.

Based in Northern New Jersey, Maria has found her niche with a special group of clients: those who suffer from anxiety, depression, and addiction and trauma. She sees yoga as an earnest companion for growth that is both physical and mental, an invitation to openness, compassion, and mindfulness. “My primary intention,” Maria says, “is to help people learn to heal themselves.”

In late childhood/early adulthood, Maria was plagued by addiction, body image issues, and broken relationships. These all experiences eventually led her to heal and transform mind, body, and soul. She experienced it as “alchemy,” left her corporate job, and went onto become a yoga teacher and studio owner. From her hometown of River Vale, she has taught happiness, global awareness, and joyful living for over 12 years.

Maria has devoted her life to inspiring others to be themselves through spirituality. She believes yoga can be one of the most effective recovery tools that people can add to their quest for lasting sobriety. She knows this because she too has a recovery story. She can be found speaking at venues nationwide where proceeds go to various philanthropic organizations aimed at helping with addiction and recovery. Her motivation is simple: to bring awareness to mental health and addiction, and end the stigma around these topics so people will ask for help.

Maria has extensive knowledge and education in health, wellness, fitness, anatomy and holistic nutrition. However, she believes that inner work is most rewarding. “My journey is pretty simple,” she says. “It is to help people accept themselves. To notice shortcomings that they may want to change. My mission is to break the stigma around mental illness and drug addiction and help people realize that deep salvation, healing, even a life of joy is possible! And sometimes, you have to start with something so strangely obvious you almost miss it, like a post on social media. I feel it is my responsibility as a human and as a yoga teacher to share the message that you can heal, in body mind and spirit.”

When she is not in the yoga studio, you can usually find Maria walking her Chesapeake Bay Retriever, riding horses with her daughter, or spending time at home with her husband and two cats. Maria gives thanks to all her teachers and students.

In addition to her own practice, Maria is also on the executive board of Kula for Karma, an inspiring nonprofit organization that brings therapeutic yoga and meditation to those most in need, transforming lives and changing the face of healthcare—one person at a time.

She is also a highly qualified healthcare professional, holding a nursing degree and several nursing certificates. She works with medical patients who want to include cannabis therapeutics in their health management program.

During this fascinating conversation, Susan gives a history of the hemp plant as a product and cannabis as a medicine. We hear how political and financial motivations forced this highly valuable plant to become labeled a dangerous drug and eventually become placed as a Schedule I narcotic.

The three criteria for a drug to be included in the federal list of Schedule I narcotics are:
1. No medical benefit
2. Addictive
3. Very unsafe and dangerous

Does it meet these criteria? Nurse Susan believes it does not, listen in to hear why she feels this way.

What is the difference between THC and CBD? Nurse Susan explains that basically, CBD works from the neck down and THC works from the neck up. However, she feels strongly that using the complete plant and portions of all the cannabinoids is the optimal way to treat a medical condition therapeutically.

Does this mean you're going to get high? Not necessarily as this can be completely modulated and controlled. But, you need both. Why? Because the CBD diminishes the psychoactivity of THC and the THC boosts the effectiveness of the CBD.

Why do different people experience different responses to cannabis? Two reasons, the product and the individual. When it comes to product, Susan says, "There's a lot of crap out there" and you have to make sure it is lab tested. And individuals need to start with a low dose, pay attention to the response, and adjust their protocol based upon that response.

"Know the product, know it's safe, and know how you respond."

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: Cartels are now spraying cannabis with Fentanyl to make it highly addictive, BEWARE!

What inspired Susan to become an advocate for medical cannabis? And what's the most badass thing she's ever done? Listen in to find out!

Background and LInks
Susan Marks, RN, BSN, PHN, is a cannabis nurse and a member of the American Cannabis Nurses Association.

Susan educates and consults with clients on:
- The endocannabinoid system and how cannabis works in their body and is specific to their disease or issue
- How to select safe and reliable products
- The dosing process
- The risks and benefits of cannabis
- Identifying drug interactions and avoiding unwanted side effects
- Understanding that cannabis is a treatment within a continuum of care which involves interacting components and being able to integrate cannabis with the client’s current treatment choices and lifestyle.

With this knowledge, her clients can make informed decisions about their cannabis regimen.

Nurse Susan states, “I am very grateful for this plant, and I’m committed to working with other patients who can benefit from cannabis therapy.”

Susan works with patients with several medical conditions, visit her site for more details.

Susan has received certification in the following subspecialties:
- Certified Professional in Healthcare Quality (CPHQ)

She is also a highly qualified healthcare professional, holding a nursing degree and several nursing certificates. She works with medical patients who want to include cannabis therapeutics in their health management program.

During this fascinating conversation, Susan gives a history of the hemp plant as a product and cannabis as a medicine. We hear how political and financial motivations forced this highly valuable plant to become labeled a dangerous drug and eventually become placed as a Schedule I narcotic.

The three criteria for a drug to be included in the federal list of Schedule I narcotics are:
1. No medical benefit
2. Addictive
3. Very unsafe and dangerous

Does it meet these criteria? Nurse Susan believes it does not, listen in to hear why she feels this way.

What is the difference between THC and CBD? Nurse Susan explains that basically, CBD works from the neck down and THC works from the neck up. However, she feels strongly that using the complete plant and portions of all the cannabinoids is the optimal way to treat a medical condition therapeutically.

Does this mean you're going to get high? Not necessarily as this can be completely modulated and controlled. But, you need both. Why? Because the CBD diminishes the psychoactivity of THC and the THC boosts the effectiveness of the CBD.

Why do different people experience different responses to cannabis? Two reasons, the product and the individual. When it comes to product, Susan says, "There's a lot of crap out there" and you have to make sure it is lab tested. And individuals need to start with a low dose, pay attention to the response, and adjust their protocol based upon that response.

"Know the product, know it's safe, and know how you respond."

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: Cartels are now spraying cannabis with Fentanyl to make it highly addictive, BEWARE!

What inspired Susan to become an advocate for medical cannabis? And what's the most badass thing she's ever done? Listen in to find out!

Dr. Sanda Moldovan is the founder of Beverly Hills Dental Health and Wellness. An award-winning periodontist, she tirelessly advocates non-narcotic alternatives for healing, which is the subject of her new book, Heal Up! Seven Ways to Faster Healing and Optimum Health (Available in September 2018, Advantage / Forbes Books).

The Holistic side to Healing
Listen in to find out why Dr. Sanda got into the holistic side of healing when many other dentists have not. She tells us that after she finished periodontal school, she began using the same treatment on different people with different results. Her curiosity about how the body heals and how she could improve healing led her to conduct research, as well as attend medical and nutritional conferences from which she began to apply the techniques she learned to patients who hadn’t healed well in previous treatments.

She tells us that the information related to better, faster, optimum health and healing has grown exponentially in the last few years and, with that, she is here to share her wisdom about alternative and natural ways to heal our bodies.

Heal Up! Non-Narcotic use in Oral Surgery or Dentistry or both?
Primarily written to help her patients, she realized that healing in the mouth is the same as healing elsewhere in the body. Find out how our bodies suffer injuries and heal every single day, and what you can do to aid the recovery process, not just from day to day routines but from surgery too.

Alternatives to Narcotics and What we should be Asking?
Learn why we should challenge the medical professionals and not just accept what they say when it comes to prescribing medication for pain relief. Listen in to hear Dr. Sanda explaining how Bromelain, a natural anti-inflammatory enzyme that comes from pineapples, is as effective in controlling pain, after wisdom tooth removal, as prescribed drugs are. Tune in to discover other alternatives to narcotics can aid in pain relief anywhere in the body.

Find out why Dr. Sanda recommends low-level laser therapy to help with pain control and why she uses this treatment in her office every day. She tells us that it’s been around for years, and it can be used almost anywhere on the body.

Drugs Mask the Pain
Listen to Dr. Sanda’s belief that Ibuprofen drugs like Advil and Motrin, dull the pain and impede the healing process by slowing it down. She explains how our fast-paced lives mean we want to feel good right away, and taking a pill is not the right way to go. This is what she tells her patients “it’s all about techniques and lifestyle choices that we have to make to heal and feel better”.

What will we find in Heal Up!?
Tune in to find out what Dr. Sanda’s book is all about. She tells us that there are seven chapters which don't have to be read in any particular order. Listen in to her telling us how healing with supplements and homeopathics are great natural remedies to really help to decrease pain and speed up the regeneration of bones, and other soft tissues in the body. She shares her knowledge of healing with oxygen and why most of us don’t get enough.

Find out why healing with water, meditation and getting enough sleep are vital to be able to heal properly. She also tells us how healing with food can help to shorten the period of pain and inflammation by choosing the correct diet and lifestyle choices.

What should I be looking for in Water?
Dr. Sanda tells us why she uses a PH meter at home and why she recommends this to anyone who is interested to find out about the PH balance in their water. She explains that the best water for healing is spring water due to its alkaline PH and tell us how this helps to balance the acidity in our bodies.

Background
Dr. Moldovan's award-winning expertise in biological dentistry has enabled countless patients to learn how to bridge the gap between their mouths and their bodies. As one of the nation’s leading advocates for nutritional and homeopathic support for oral health and healing, she frequently appears on the Emmy-winning television show, “The Doctors”, as well as guest spots on “Inside Edition,” and NBC News. Her patients are from all walks of life–working mothers, police officers, educators, CEO’s, athletes, and Hollywood celebrities whom all share the common desire to live a long and healthier life.

She tells us that the information related to better, faster, optimum health and healing has grown exponentially in the last few years and, with that, she is here to share her wisdom about alternative and natural ways to heal our bodies.

Heal Up! Non-Narcotic use in Oral Surgery or Dentistry or both?
Primarily written to help her patients, she realized that healing in the mouth is the same as healing elsewhere in the body. Find out how our bodies suffer injuries and heal every single day, and what you can do to aid the recovery process, not just from day to day routines but from surgery too.

Alternatives to Narcotics and What we should be Asking?
Learn why we should challenge the medical professionals and not just accept what they say when it comes to prescribing medication for pain relief. Listen in to hear Dr. Sanda explaining how Bromelain, a natural anti-inflammatory enzyme that comes from pineapples, is as effective in controlling pain, after wisdom tooth removal, as prescribed drugs are. Tune in to discover other alternatives to narcotics can aid in pain relief anywhere in the body.

Find out why Dr. Sanda recommends low-level laser therapy to help with pain control and why she uses this treatment in her office every day. She tells us that it’s been around for years, and it can be used almost anywhere on the body.

Drugs Mask the Pain
Listen to Dr. Sanda’s belief that Ibuprofen drugs like Advil and Motrin, dull the pain and impede the healing process by slowing it down. She explains how our fast-paced lives mean we want to feel good right away, and taking a pill is not the right way to go. This is what she tells her patients “it’s all about techniques and lifestyle choices that we have to make to heal and feel better”.

What will we find in Heal Up!?
Tune in to find out what Dr. Sanda’s book is all about. She tells us that there are seven chapters which don't have to be read in any particular order. Listen in to her telling us how healing with supplements and homeopathics are great natural remedies to really help to decrease pain and speed up the regeneration of bones, and other soft tissues in the body. She shares her knowledge of healing with oxygen and why most of us don’t get enough.

Find out why healing with water, meditation and getting enough sleep are vital to be able to heal properly. She also tells us how healing with food can help to shorten the period of pain and inflammation by choosing the correct diet and lifestyle choices.

What should I be looking for in Water?
Dr. Sanda tells us why she uses a PH meter at home and why she recommends this to anyone who is interested to find out about the PH balance in their water....]]>1585falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep035-sophie-uliano-become-gorgeous-for-good--46996913

Listen in to hear Ivan’s intriguing history: how his relationship with his father, life in the military, and his own divorce led him to the year of introspection that changed the course of his life, and become inspired to help other men connect and find a source of support.

Men supporting men
Hear Ivan’s theory on why men may find it challenging to openly support one another, and why he’s working to tear down the wall and let them know that it’s okay to admit that they are having a hard time, facing depression, or questioning the direction of their life.

Ivan talks about how he wants to reverse this tough mindset so that men can feel empowered by sharing these challenges, rather than emasculated.

Man as the provider
Here, Ivan discusses the pressure and expectations placed on males to be the main provider and caregiver, and how media, movies, and sports all urge men to be winners.

Questioning that status quo, Ivan brings up the fact that many women out-earn their husbands, and that the “man as provider” role no longer has to be the norm.

You will hear about Ivan’s changing family status, and how he came to see his father in a different light for taking a back seat to his wife’s successful career.

Ivan also talks about the reason some men struggle with gender reversal roles.

Low self-esteem and the link to self-destructive behaviors
Tune in to hear Ivan explain the cyclic behaviors of substance abuse and how these self-destructive behaviors are connected with a lack of self-worth and pride.

Mid-life understanding
Reframing the concept of a mid-life crisis to a mid-life understanding or awakening, Ivan dives into the most common theme for his mid-40’s clientele - who reach a certain point in life and start to question if the path they have been on still feels authentic and worthwhile.

Find out how to deal with this phase of your life, and move on to finding a more fulfilling experience, as Ivan shares his tips on keeping a relationship alive, discovering your purpose, and motivating others with your unique take on life.

Take a chance on yourself
Learn about the importance of assessing who you really are; what your core values and belief systems are, and exactly HOW to pinpoint those things in your life that you are truly interested in and passionate about. Ivan talks about the importance of stepping back from the autopilot life you’ve been living and finding a more purposeful path.

Non-abstinence treatment and harm reduction methods
Learn about the alternative methods of recovery and find out why abstinence may not be the best route to take for every addict. Here, Dr. Jaffe discusses the reasons such a shockingly low percentage of people seek professional help for their issues, and the roadblocks that prevent them from doing so.

After learning about the world of harm reduction treatments, Dr. Jaffe started working with people at whatever level they are comfortable with - he talks about how this works, and why total abstinence may not be the answer for some people.

Tune in to find out Dr. Jaffe’s thoughts on moderation programs such as controlled drinking: does he believe they can be successful?

The stigma of labeling
Going on to talk about why labeling someone with an addiction or mental illness can hinder his or her recovery, the Dr explains that labels such as these are usually lifelong, even though the conditions themselves may only be situational and temporary.

Why so many people won’t get help?
Dr. Jaffe delves deeper into the reasons so many people are struggling, yet won’t seek professional help, the barriers surrounding the old-school treatment systems, and why he thinks a more individualized approach is required.

He introduces his book The Abstinence Myth and offers a free download of the first chapter.

Medical Assisted Therapy (MAT)
Keep listening to hear how MAT can be a valuable tool for some people, but why it’s not the standalone answer.

Different treatments for different people
Dr. Jaffe shares his frustration regarding the infighting among experts, and asks: why are we spending so much time arguing? He maintains that each client presents with a different history, genetics, beliefs, and environments, so each should be treated individually.

Continuing on to talk about spirituality, self-care, and connection, Dr. Jaffe laments the fact that this hasn’t been a huge focus in the field over the last few decades.

What can people do if the traditional treatments aren’t working?
Rounding off this enlightening podcast, Dr. Jaffe offers his final gems of wisdom to people looking for alternative recovery treatments.

Ending on a positive note, he encourages people to keep trying different systems until they find the right one for them.

He shares a few anecdotal success stories and finishes off on a positive note with some final words of advice you won’t want to miss.

Music courtesy of Crowfly - http://crowflyrocks.com/]]>1726falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep031-paul-gilmartin-the-mental-illness-happy-hour--46996744
On this episode, I interview Paul Gilmartin, a stand-up comedian since 1987. He has been on several shows including a half-hour slot on Comedy Central’s Presents show “Comedy Central Presents Paul Gilmartin.”

In 1995 Paul began presenting the cooking and entertainment show on TBS “Dinner and a Movie”. DAAM stopped airing in 2011 and after suffering from severe depression Paul decided to air a podcast on that very subject.

“The Mental Illness Happy Hour” began in 2011. A mental health awareness podcast where Paul interviews artists, audience members, listeners and mental health practitioners on mental health subjects, whilst at the same time adding a soupçon of his own comedic genius into the fray. To date, MIHH has been downloaded a staggering 22 million times and has been rated 5/5 on iTunes.

As if this wasn’t enough MIHH is frequently picked as Editor’s Choice by Apple Podcast staff and in 2016 was chosen by Esquire Magazine as that year’s best podcast. It has also featured in the PBS documentary “A State of Mind”.

Early To Bed

Tune in to hear about Pauls habit of getting up at around noon. He shares that it’s perfectly normal for comedians because of late shows and comedians having more to worry about than what time they get up, like, is there an echo in the room that they are about to perform in? Or is the mic on? This, he says, “is the real stress and can be the difference in the career you have, rather than the career you want. Getting laid and getting paid are the two most important parts of being a comedian. If you’re funny then well, the ladies will think you’re attractive, right?”

Paul remembers that he was always funny as a kid but this was more a case of having to be rather than wanting to be. It was more a case of validation, of feeling special. You want to be validated and experience pleasure.

Inspiration

Listen in to learn how Paul comes up with his material and the process he follows thereafter. It’s different for everyone, according to Paul. “When you first start out you are a nobody. You have no experience whatsoever so you think of things that are going to be the most effective on stage.”

Nasty Habits

Join in to hear Paul share a shockingly dark similarity among most comedians. He reflects that some comedians are a complete disaster offstage but onstage are hilarious geniuses. For others, it is vice versa.

Paul shares a disturbing statistic about comedians and the destructive efforts they make to be funny. Paul shares that he has seen some brilliant comedians that just never achieved the success they could have, because of their own self-destruction or addiction.

You call that Funny?

Paul enlightens us about the side of the comedy world that we don’t see. The questions, doubts and constant comparisons comedians indulge in. We learn that comedians are actually perfectionists- always looking to perfect their gigs.

Tune in as we cover interesting examples like Chris Tucker and his work.

“A greater writer analyzes the comedy, sees it as a philosophy; a way of life, Anyone can write but to write great comedy you have to analyze it and look into its being, its soul.” Deep words from Paul.

Move Along

We learn that Paul’s decision to move from “Dinner and a Movie” to “Mental Illness Happy Hour” wasn’t his to make. He shares the dark journey of depression, medication and suicide that directed him to his podcast. Join in to hear about his intentions and goals for the podcast that will touch your heart.

Paul aims to connect with his guests. Episodes need that vulnerability element.

No Regrets

This episode will show you how something as simple as a podcast and helping other people, can positively impact a life. This is precisely what happened to Paul. You will want to hear first hand the huge inspiration his podcast provided to him to change his life for the better. He shares his lifestyle changes and the healthier choices he has gone on to make because of his podcast!

Advice

Paul says that his two pieces of advice would be:

Have compassion for others but not at the expense of compassion for yourself; and
Nothing degrades the quality of your life more than obsessing about the quality of your life.

In 1995 Paul began presenting the cooking and entertainment show on TBS “Dinner and a Movie”. DAAM stopped airing in 2011 and after suffering from severe depression Paul decided to air a podcast on that very subject.

“The Mental Illness Happy Hour” began in 2011. A mental health awareness podcast where Paul interviews artists, audience members, listeners and mental health practitioners on mental health subjects, whilst at the same time adding a soupçon of his own comedic genius into the fray. To date, MIHH has been downloaded a staggering 22 million times and has been rated 5/5 on iTunes.

As if this wasn’t enough MIHH is frequently picked as Editor’s Choice by Apple Podcast staff and in 2016 was chosen by Esquire Magazine as that year’s best podcast. It has also featured in the PBS documentary “A State of Mind”.

Early To Bed

Tune in to hear about Pauls habit of getting up at around noon. He shares that it’s perfectly normal for comedians because of late shows and comedians having more to worry about than what time they get up, like, is there an echo in the room that they are about to perform in? Or is the mic on? This, he says, “is the real stress and can be the difference in the career you have, rather than the career you want. Getting laid and getting paid are the two most important parts of being a comedian. If you’re funny then well, the ladies will think you’re attractive, right?”

Paul remembers that he was always funny as a kid but this was more a case of having to be rather than wanting to be. It was more a case of validation, of feeling special. You want to be validated and experience pleasure.

Inspiration

Listen in to learn how Paul comes up with his material and the process he follows thereafter. It’s different for everyone, according to Paul. “When you first start out you are a nobody. You have no experience whatsoever so you think of things that are going to be the most effective on stage.”

Nasty Habits

Join in to hear Paul share a shockingly dark similarity among most comedians. He reflects that some comedians are a complete disaster offstage but onstage are hilarious geniuses. For others, it is vice versa.

Paul shares a disturbing statistic about comedians and the destructive efforts they make to be funny. Paul shares that he has seen some brilliant comedians that just never achieved the success they could have, because of their own self-destruction or addiction.

You call that Funny?

Paul enlightens us about the side of the comedy world that we don’t see. The questions, doubts and constant comparisons comedians indulge in. We learn that comedians are actually perfectionists- always looking to perfect their gigs.

Tune in as we cover interesting examples like Chris Tucker and his work.

“A greater writer analyzes the comedy, sees it as a philosophy; a way of life, Anyone can write but to write great comedy you have to analyze it and look into its being, its soul.” Deep words from Paul.

Move Along

We learn that Paul’s decision to move from “Dinner and a Movie” to “Mental Illness Happy Hour” wasn’t his to make. He shares the dark journey of depression, medication and suicide that directed him to his podcast. Join in to hear about his intentions and goals for the podcast that will touch your heart.

Paul aims to connect with his guests. Episodes need that vulnerability element.

No Regrets

This episode will show you how something as simple as a podcast and helping other people, can positively impact a life. This is precisely what happened to Paul. You will want to hear first...]]>2211falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep030-gary-kimble-acts-of-service--46996702

McMillen and his team of treatment addiction counselors, team leaders, therapists, and physical health specialists provide an innovative medication-free process to treat addiction that is comprehensive, effective, and sustainable.

Tree House Recovery’s innovative approach to addiction treatment focuses on the mind/body connection to build sustainable, healthy lives. Their eight interconnected modalities work together to treat the whole person. The cumulative result is a highly effective program focused on healing the individual.

At Tree House, abstinence is simply a jumping-off point. In order to sustain change, men are encouraged to find lives that they are excited to lead. The Tree House team is a highly collaborative unit that works together to offer each client the most effective care available.

Over the many years spent working with thousands of recovering addicts and alcoholics, McMillen began to understand the inherent flaws in the treatment industry, primarily the disheartening fact that this field had come to accept very low standards and outcomes of care. The behavioral health field’s failure to treat this massive social epidemic with even moderate success was the catalyst for Justin’s vision that became Tree House Recovery.

Tree House Recovery uses a creative variety of today’s most successful approaches, which provide their clients with a highly structured and intensive program featuring individual and group counseling, literary therapy, experiential therapy, exercise therapy and personalized treatment plans.

McMillen is a true visionary with a steadfast commitment to bettering the world around him. McMillen’s plan for Tree House goes far beyond their facilities; his work includes transforming the way substance abuse treatment is thought about, talked about, and conducted across the nation.

He has been working professionally in the world of fitness and holistic wellness for 30 years (although he is such great shape that you would not know his age!). Boris is highly skilled and trained in various disciplines and brings 110% to each client.

Boris began his training in yoga, meditation, and spirituality as a small child, in West Berlin, Germany. The Martial Arts were the next area that grabbed his attention and drove his passions. When he was 13, he began working with weights in the gym. Boris first moved to the U.S., as a foreign exchange student, a year later and continued his studies of the Martial Arts and his further developed his devotion to the gym. When he was 20, he moved to the U.S. Permanently, to pursue bodybuilding. He learned from some of the industries best names.

Boris won First Place, in his first try, in the Mr. Los Angeles competition! Then, he began training others professionally at Gold’s Gym in Venice, where he got to work with and learn from so many industry leaders in the fields of Meditation, Bodybuilding, Nutrition, Entertainment, and the Medical Profession. Through his own experience of working through training injuries and with those of his clients, he began working more in-depth with injury prevention.

This is also when Boris really began to appreciate the importance of proper nutrition and supplementation. After that, he began working at one of the biggest holistic pharmacy and nutrition retailers in West Hollywood. His job there allowed him to meet a Physician that specializes in treating HIV/AIDS, who was really interested in his knowledge and began referring patients to Boris.

He began working as a private bodyguard and working in upscale clubs. The party scene became another place where Boris’ ability to excel evolved into a rapid downward spiral. He battled with an addiction to alcohol and drugs for many years, before finding his way back to a life in fitness, through working a Twelve Step program. Boris incorporates his experience in recovery into his approach to the fitness program with his clients.

Boris has been a Personal Trainer, Sober Coach and Sober Companion to many people that have had a successful recovery, have regained their physical abilities and expanded upon their career potentials, as a result. We invite you to let his experience work for you.

“As a Professional Trainer and Sober Coach, my fitness approach integrates the elements of physical fitness and nutrition within the scope of recovery and sobriety. This is TOTAL integration- the convergence of mental, spiritual and physical fitness! Seeing the transformation and growth in my clients; physically, emotionally and spiritually, is my passion and mission in life!!! I’m glad to share it with You.”

Known for her candor, resiliency, and leadership, An in-demand speaker, Jean is the CEO/Founder of 3 companies – each with a mission of recovery – from addiction, from failure, from challenges.

The grateful mother of a son in long-term recovery, Jean learned during those terrifying years of her son’s active addiction, just how confusing the treatment world can be and how unprepared she was to handle it. She knew others were probably as overwhelmed as she was, and she started a consulting business to provide support to families.

As she would speak with individuals with no resources, and then later in the day visit treatment centers with empty beds, it became clear that this equation needed a solution. From that experience, 10,000 Beds was born.

Today, 10,000 Beds operates with a 100% volunteer staff and board, with funding from individual donors, grants and foundations, and through strategic partnerships with addiction treatment programs throughout the United States who commit to providing at least one scholarship bed per year for a minimum of 30 days of treatment. In 2016, 10,000 Beds awarded over $1,000,000 in addiction treatment scholarships, in 2017 they are on track to award $2,500,000 and in 2018 they’ve set a goal of $5,000,000.

Then in 2010, at almost three years sober, he was approached to play with the legendary band Korn. He joined Korn and worked with them as their touring guitarist for the next several years, traveling to 42 countries, headlining shows, playing to crowds of 80,000 people, and appearing on a number of recordings and cable and TV shows. His music has been featured in many feature films, video games, radio, and television shows.

Wes also has long had a passion for teaching music. Previously a music teacher at The Fusion Academy’s Huntington Beach campus, Wes taught Recording Arts, Drums, and Guitar.

“I’ve always had a desire to teach and help people through music. It was while teaching at Fusion Academy, that I really realized the level of engagement the students would have when we were ‘writing a song’ together, and then record it! It gave such a greater sense of purpose to our music. and a greater connection between us.

But it was when I was in treatment that I realized how much music could help [me] get through those tough emotions that run so rampant, especially in the early days. Being totally sober and dealing with the bottom I had hit -strumming the guitar was the only thing that would bring me peace. Everyone would wait in line for their turn to play, even people who had never played guitar.

These ingredients really helped me realize this combination had the potential to be a powerful tool within the recovery community. When I looked around, music seemed to be missing from the treatment curriculum. It became my dream to create a music program that could help all those in need."

. . . And so began Rock to Recovery.

Rassekh brings over 10 years of experience in therapy, with a focus on both addiction treatment and mindfulness. In his work, he has served a wide range of individuals, couples, and families, helping them identify their goals, address underlying trauma, and open up new possibilities for change. Core to this approach is the value that clients already possess the inherent ability to respond effectively to the difficulties they face.

Rassekh has worked in various counseling and outpatient centers in Los Angeles with a focus on substance use. At the Matrix Institute on Addictions, he specialized in working with young adults around drugs, alcohol, and addiction issues. He led a federal grant-driven program with teenagers and surprisingly found that shifting focus away from substances and onto each individual’s needs and desires led to reduced substance use. As Director of Mindfulness at Alternatives Behavioral Health, he developed a program to support clients to successfully adopt their desired lifestyle, whether abstinence or moderation.

Rassekh holds a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Southern California (USC) and a Bachelor of Science in Public Policy and Management from USC. He has completed extensive advanced training in multiple therapeutic approaches, including: Assertive Community Reinforcement Approach (ACRA), Community Reinforcement Approach (CRA), Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention (MBRP), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Motivational Interviewing, and numerous meditation and mindfulness techniques.

Jeffrey explains the misunderstandings around the laws that exist in the substance use disorder space and why it’s there especially pertaining to kickbacks and patient-centered care.

Jeffrey sheds light on the difficulty treatment providers face distinguishing themselves as good providers outside of word of mouth or referrals. He shares the value of a patient in a marketplace and the role of a patient broker. Jeffery exposes “Interventionists” and their duplicitous operations. He clarifies the law around this and what is and isn’t permitted ie (paybacks, kickbacks for patient referrals). Jefferey says this inevitably leads to people being motivated by money and not by the service needed.

Jeff raises the concern that patients are becoming commodities and the focus is no longer the clinical outcome. He expresses the progress in social policy and civil rights, inefficacious against the immoral scourge of patient brokering.

The issue is compounded outside influences such as negative press around the addiction recovery arena as well as individuals forming groups on social media which shed an unfounded negative light on addiction service providers.

Jeffrey tackles the unrealistic pressure being created for free addiction recovery services and the economic marring it brings to these providers. He unpacks the fallacies that ‘parents are not at fault when it comes to addiction’ and ‘pharmaceutical companies are to blame.’

Jeffrey highlights “The opposite of addiction is not sobriety, it’s community” while conveying how society is undermining the addiction recovery community fabric in Florida.

Ava has teamed up with Kavvy Sonhos the founder of the Revolution of Healing. Kavvy is a highly successful fitness and fashion model. She is an IFBB Pro Figure competitor and is an advocate for a healthy life. Kavvy is a recovering anorexic and has paved the way to success by sharing her struggles with this eating disorder.

Kavvy explains The Revolution of Healing which is a community that talks about nutrition psychology and mental fitness. Ava and Kavvy believe mental fitness is a combination of using fitness as an emotional outlet and tapping into your core power as a two-tiered approach to mind and body.

They highlight a critical difference of the Revolution of Healing: attacking the Problem instead of attacking the Solution. Kavvy says “Let’s just deal with the real thing” while pointing out her belief that all human beings have some sort of eating disorder and that these disorders are the result of not dealing with emotional obstacles.

The Revolution of Healing is about what works for you. Ava shares that their programme will educate people on how to use their nutrition to complement or ward off medication.

Ava and Kavvy share the source of Personal Power and dissect today’s common advice to expose the flaws they hold. Kavvy emphasizes being aware of what you are actually eating and learning about the effects of food on yourself.

Ava points out that we can’t create a lasting lifestyle change without feeling the benefits first and have a healthy attachment to the purpose of the lifestyle change. The journey to this is a challenging one. Ava highlights that The Revolution of Healing does not take away- it adds, so you are not left with anything absent.

Kavvy shares that you are free and describes the program as “it’s not a diet, it’s changing your life and being honest with yourself.”

Their website is http://www.therevolutionofhealing.com and if you subscribe to the show, you will get a downloadable worksheet and join the community for free!

The Revolution of Healing focuses on what "Core Power" really is and how to harness it to reach your greatest potential.

Six months after his release, tragedy struck. His son, Nick – for whom Tim had paved the way to use deadly drugs – died tragically from an overdose. Reaching beyond the devastation and heartbreak, Tim used Nick’s death as the inspiration to spread hope, believing that if even one addict or family could be spared the horrors of addiction, he would make a difference.

As a result, he founded A Man in Recovery Foundation, a nonprofit that helps anyone find treatment and recovery.

Today, Tim is the subject of the new A&E documentary, Dope Man, reaching millions. He has been a featured thought leader in numerous national media, including USA Today, Newsweek, Chicago Tribune, and “The Steve Harvey Show with Dr. Drew,” and dozens of nationally syndicated radio shows. He was an invited guest to the 2016 State of the Union Address. He is the author of the bestselling book, From Dope to Hope and the National Outreach Director for Transformations Drug and Alcohol Treatment Center.

Tim’s message is inspiring because he has walked the journey of addiction and recovery. He spreads hope and tools to those who need them most.

"If you're going to do heroin you have two choices, you will get sober or you're going to die. You might pass through jail in the interim, but those are your only two choices. End of discussion." - Tim Ryan

Wow, listen to this powerful episode and hear Todd explain why, "My getting sober was the most tumultuous, the gnarliest, rockiest, most difficult, most painful thing that I've ever walked through in my life."

He goes on to explain, "Which is why today I have a very healthy outlook on the dangers of my drug abuse."

Todd is more than an interventionist, public speaker, and author, he’s a storyteller and motivator who inspires others as a thought-leader on recovery, to not only realize their potential but live it.

His gripping memoir, “Dying for Triplicate” which details his harrowing 17-year addiction to prescription painkillers, through detox and into his first 18 months of recovery, has helped thousands of other addicts find their way into treatment.

Todd is also the co-founder of The Nowell Family Foundation, a non-profit he created along with Jim “Papa” Nowell. Set to open late in 2018 in San Juan Capistrano, will bear the name “Bradley’s House,” and will be dedicated specifically to treating male musicians with opiate addiction-a first of its kind.

Todd is FOUNDER and CEO of the Four Keys, INC a vertical enterprise that encompasses ALL in RECOVERY; interventions, treatment, education and post-treatment care. Current curriculum includes workshops centered in helping addicts and alcoholics develop new tools for integrating back into life, clean and sober. These two-day sessions are dedicated to inspiring and motivating individuals to further their recovery.

The Long Way Back: The Story of Todd ‘Z-Man’ Zalkins is an award-winning documentary film about Todd which has recently come out in select theaters and worldwide on Amazon, iTunes and DVD.

After losing his friend Bradley Nowell to a heroin overdose, Todd Zalkins aka "Z-MAN" fights for his life in what will become the worst drug crisis in American History, the Opioid Epidemic. Against all odds, Todd is able to break a seventeen-year addiction to prescription painkillers and dedicates his life to helping others who struggle with addiction.

In a twist of fate, Todd is presented with an opportunity to help Bradley Nowell's son, Jakob battle his own addiction with drugs and alcohol. A story of redemption, and recovery, The Long Way Back shatters the stigma associated with prescription painkiller addiction and offers a strong message of hope and awareness.

Todd lives in Long Beach, California, swims and surfs regularly, prays daily, is extremely active in his recovery, still rocks out with his punk rock band and loves his clean and sober life.

Mara received her BFA in directing from NYU – Tisch School of the Arts. Her short documentary, The Sound of Silence, was showcased in the NYU Film Festival. Mara received her MFA in screenwriting from AFI. Her Script, Brooklyn Beauty, was a finalist in the script of the year contest garnering Mara a manager and development deal. She’s worked on the following sitcoms: FRIENDS, South Park, That’s My Bush, Jesse, Veronica’s Closet, Ladies Man and Inside Schwartz.

In 2005, Mara hit a bottom and checked into rehab. Upon leaving rehab Mara was fired from her job, going through a divorce and was homeless. Carrie Fisher took Mara in. While living with Princess Leia, Mara wrote the novel, Junky American Princess. She also started writing for The Huffington Post, The Jewish Journal, The Hollywood Journal, The Fix.com, Glamour Magazine and LA Magazine.

In 2008, Mara became a stand-up comic. She performs regularly at The Comedy Store, Improv, Laugh Factory and many other venues. Mara is also a producer/host of two successful comedy/variety shows. She can also be seen in an episode of Season 6’s Kathy Griffin’s – Life on the D-List.

As a result of being on the Jenny Craig diet, in 2012, Mara was rushed to the ER for emergency gallbladder surgery. On June 3rd, 2013, Mara’s lawsuit against Jenny Craig went public. She was on TMZ, People Magazine, USA Today, The Today Show, the LBN Report…Mara soon realized that her battle was not with Jenny Craig, her battle was with food. She sought help for her food compulsions, dropped the lawsuit and created the popular blog, The Self Worth Diet. The blog’s purpose is to shine a light on the dieting industry as well as help others with their food/body image issues.

When Carrie Fisher died in 2016, Mara decided to write an article for LA Magazine about their relationship. The article resulted in Mara working for mental health organizations, continuing on Carrie’s work. Mara decided to marry her love of baking (she’s been baking since 8 years old), mental health awareness activism and stand-up comedy to create the upcoming web series and baking company called, Stand-Up Kitchen – Baked Goods To Benefit the Half Baked (a portion of the proceeds will go to mental health organizations) She is also writing a book of essays/interviews of celebrities with mental health and addiction (Wattpad 2018).

"If my life wasn't funny, it would just be true, and that is unacceptable." Carrie Fisher

She’s worked on the following sitcoms: FRIENDS, South Park, That’s My Bush, Jesse, Veronica’s Closet, Ladies Man and Inside Schwartz.

In 2005, Mara hit a bottom and checked into rehab. Upon leaving rehab Mara was fired from her job, going through a divorce and was homeless. Carrie Fisher took Mara in. While living with Princess Leia, Mara wrote the novel, Junky American Princess. She also started writing for The Huffington Post, The Jewish Journal, The Hollywood Journal, The Fix.com, Glamour Magazine and LA Magazine.

In 2008, Mara became a stand-up comic. She performs regularly at The Comedy Store, Improv, Laugh Factory and many other venues. Mara is also a producer/host of two successful comedy/variety shows. She can also be seen in an episode of Season 6’s Kathy Griffin’s – Life on the D-List.

As a result of being on the Jenny Craig diet, in 2012, Mara was rushed to the ER for emergency gallbladder surgery. On June 3rd, 2013, Mara’s lawsuit against Jenny Craig went public. She was on TMZ, People Magazine, USA Today, The Today Show, the LBN Report…Mara soon realized that her battle was not with Jenny Craig, her battle was with food. She sought help for her food compulsions, dropped the lawsuit and created the popular blog, The Self Worth Diet. The blog’s purpose is to shine a light on the dieting industry as well as help others with their food/body image issues.

Johnson was a world-class long jumper. In 1982, Johnson won the NCAA championship, as well as winning the gold medal at the Junior Pan American games. In 1984 Johnson just missed making the Olympic track team, finishing fourth and becoming the alternate in the long jump at the 1984 United States Olympic trials in Los Angeles.

Johnson assisted the Denver Broncos to three Super Bowls appearances in the eighties and had an impressive performance in Super Bowl XXI, recording five catches for 121 yards and a touchdown. His best season was in 1989 when he recorded 76 receptions for 1095 yards and seven touchdowns. In his 11 Seasons, Johnson recorded 415 receptions for 5695 yards and 37 touchdowns. While also rushing 17 times for 44 yards. He also gained 689 yards on punt returns, and 1027 yards returning kickoffs.

Vance is currently one of the best recovery coaches in the country, intervention, trainer, Christian spiritual guide, and an advocate for addiction recovering athletes in his post-career.

As a sober coach, Vance's primary duty is to provide the scaffolding in the early days of sobriety. He starts by to building trust and helps his clients normalize the basics of living an intoxicant-free life. Similar to a personal trainer, he will give you the support to lift the weights yourself. He teaches clients how to implement tools to handle real-life situations, feelings, and triggers as they come up so that they can achieve long-term sobriety. By learning how to embrace and accept all feelings – the good the bad and the ugly – you’ll be able to move gracefully through both the immense joy and the emotional minefields that life presents without having to seek relief in drugs and alcohol.

Katrina shares how she seemed to overcome the death of her parents as a child in the California desert of the 70's, child abuse, institutions and sexual assaults, to evolving to a responsible, loving, career parent earning a six-figure salary. Sadly, she had only buried the pain and shame of repeated abuse, as all it took was a few life incidents and a fall down the stairs of her home, to set off heartbreaking consequences and senseless tragedy.

Her powerful story was profiled in the FBI's, "Chasing the Dragon" documentary. Released last year with a study guide, it will be used in schools and communities for years to come to help educate the public on the dangers of substance abuse, as well as the underlying factors that often lead to the full manifestation of the disorder.

Today, Katrina advocates for all suffering from substance abuse, their families and trauma survivors. The founder for "Recovered Purpose", she has dedicated her life to serving others. She admits her dreams were lost to addiction and the death of her daughter but, her PURPOSE was found in recovery. She is driven to honor her daughter and leave a legacy of love to her son and his family. Katrina is proud of her son who serves our country enthusiastically in a branch of the military.

Unfortunately, those who have created the "addiction epidemic" are now trying to cash in on the recovery movement. More drugs, like suboxone, are not the "cure" for addiction. Recovery is about finding your essence, your true self.

The killer of the human spirit? When we make addiction a brain disease and remove all responsibility from recovery. The five toughest words for people to put together into a sentence? "Oops, I made a mistake." Blame and shame go away when I'm responsible.

When you are trying to pigeonhole something like the opioid crisis, you're missing the real problem, which is addiction.

Rabbi Marks solution? Listen in and find out.

Officially ordained in 2000 at the University of Judaism with a Master’s in Rabbinic Literature, Rabbi Mark Borovitz combined his knowledge of Torah and street smarts to shape his calling: helping recovering addicts find their way in the world. Spiritual Leader, Author, Senior Rabbi, CEO, ex-con, recovering alcoholic, and overall anomaly, he is able to reach both the addict and the congregant, and de-stigmatize this life-threatening disease.

As the CEO and Senior Rabbi of Beit T’Shuvah, a nonprofit, non-sectarian, Jewish addiction treatment center and synagogue community in Los Angeles, Rabbi Mark’s leadership is unparalleled.
