From a prison cell in South Texas to the sand at Huntington Beach, California — it took Bryan Blackmon a long time to truly see himself clearly. 962 days and counting since he clawed his way out of addiction, and honestly? We are here for it!

This episode is Bryan's story — nearly 30 years of addiction, and the moment everything started to turn around. That moment came from the most unexpected place: an 87-year-old widow named Elaine Montgomery, who took a chance on a homeless stranger, opened her home, and gave him a safe place to finally heal.  In this episode:

• Bryan's nearly 30-year journey with addiction, and what finally broke the cycle
• How Elaine Montgomery opened her home — and what that act of trust set in motion
• The Crab Crew, the community Bryan built to help others create lasting change
• Using social media and personal connection to reach people still in the fight
• What recovery actually looks like, day to day

Some conversations settle into your bones a little differently. This is one of those. Tonight I sat down with Larisa Makuch — a Ukrainian dancer, former Pilates studio director, NLP and hypnotherapy practitioner, and founder of Abundance Academy — for a chat that wound its way through more life than I expected in one sitting.

We talked about the pole-dance party business that accidentally taught her about group dynamics and human nature. We talked about ten years of trying to get pregnant, and the fog of new motherhood. We talked about the moment her husband stood up and asked her a question she couldn't answer — one that changed the trajectory of her professional life. 

I loved our conversation - and think you will too!
Enjoy the show,

A true story of redemption, my guest for this week's show shares a testimony unlike any I've ever heard. Author and now pastor, Herman Mendoza, built an empire in Queens, New York, selling cocaine up and down the eastern seaboard, along with his brothers, throughout the late 1980s and into the early 90s.

Seemingly, against all odds – through prison time, affairs, depression, and only after truly realizing and understanding the repercussions of all he had done, Mendoza somehow salvages a marriage and rebuilds a life diametrically opposed to the rut carved over years of obstinance and crime. Of course, he doesn’t do it on his own, which you’ll learn more about in the episode.

Show Notes
Welcome to episode No. 81 of the Nancy Duffy show for this Thursday, August 20, 2020!
Today's featured guest is a budding Canadian artist who found a way to be inspired during this season of masks, sanitizers, and – 'safe spaces' – and her efforts won her a songwriting contest! The winning tune is called “Ten Speed Bike” and Clare Siobhan tells us the story behind her dreamlike lyrics, and it has everything to do with a young couple finding their way during the kind of space and transportation duress one can only encounter during a pandemic :)
So where does a songstress born in such a time as this go from here? Tune in!

You are Safe Here!
During this episode, we also discuss a creative cover of Craig Cardiff's Safe Here performed and recorded by Clare along with her good friend Christina Acton – featuring Clare’s roommates Amber LeBlanc and Amy Ward in a backyard-video. Shout out to Amber, Amy, Christina, and of course Clare on a job well done! You can watch their backyard Quarantune collaboration here.

The Conduct Becoming Music Project

Show Notes
Welcome to episode No. 81 of the Nancy Duffy show for this Thursday, August 20, 2020!
Today's featured guest is a budding Canadian artist who found a way to be inspired during this season of masks, sanitizers, and – 'safe spaces' – and her efforts won her a songwriting contest! The winning tune is called “Ten Speed Bike” and Clare Siobhan tells us the story behind her dreamlike lyrics, and it has everything to do with a young couple finding their way during the kind of space and transportation duress one can only encounter during a pandemic :)
So where does a songstress born in such a time as this go from here? Tune in!

You are Safe Here!
During this episode, we also discuss a creative cover of Craig Cardiff's Safe Here performed and recorded by Clare along with her good friend Christina Acton – featuring Clare’s roommates Amber LeBlanc and Amy Ward in a backyard-video. Shout out to Amber, Amy, Christina, and of course Clare on a job well done! You can watch their backyard Quarantune collaboration here.

During this talk with Canadian singer/songwriter, Karen Morand, I warm up by asking a few silly questions, that actually elicit some very endearing responses – yes, there will be laughter. But then we dig into something a little bit deeper; unveiling the heavier truths behind why we might hold ourselves back from doing the work we truly love and from taking it as far as it can go.

“Everything now is expanding… We’re in a brave new world in terms of these new elements coming into focus that are challenging employees, employers, independent contractors and the courts”
– Shelley Brown

Show Notes
Welcome to episode 72 – It's the week after Canada's 43rd national election and I'm excited to be back! One of the subjects we did not hear all that much about during the Canadian election debates was about the changing nature of work – and what those changes will mean to current and new employees entering the workforce. 

During this episode, we talk with employment lawyer, Shelley Brown, about the relationship between workers (direct employees and those on contract) and the companies they work for. Listen in as we discuss the perils of out-of-date work contracts in the face of the ever-changing social and workplace landscapes. We'll dive into matters regarding rights, privacy, and the latest concerns about cannabis.

Hi there and welcome to the Nancy Duffy Show – Episode #64… I know I’ve been away for a while, but I had to finish my masters y’all! And it has been quite the journey (I'll fill you in later)! However, I am done and so eager to get back to all the things that I love, including spending time with you!

Today, I want to share the work of two authors and poets who I interviewed earlier this year (before the looming deadline of my master’s thesis). Hearing them talk about their work only makes me want to do more work of my own. Just a few short months ago, I had the privilege of speaking with the most delightful guides into the life of Thomas Merton, who not only introduced me to his work but did a remarkable job of illustrating his relevance. Poets and authors Susan McCaslin and J. S. Porter have collaborated on a book of creative non-fiction titled Superabundantly Alive: Thomas Merton’s Dance with the Feminine.

It’s imaginative, reflective, instructive and encouraging. It’s a book about Thomas Merton, about the influence of women, about Merton the man himself - written in new poetry and writings of poetry-like layers containing the most interesting biographical artifacts. Perhaps you know him, this Thomas Merton, or perhaps you don’t. But within just a few short paragraphs you want to – because he sounds all too familiar. Like you, maybe me. And maybe that’s the point of a good book.

But before we get started... I share a little something from Donovan Woods – we’ve had him as a guest on this show before – and if you like what you hear, you can hear more on Episode no. 44,

Welcome to episode #60 with Special Guest AHI!

"A girl at school – she heard me singing, and she's like, you know you have a good voice, it's not a really good voice, but you know how Jamaican singers sound..." –AHI

Today, we’re taking a tiny break from politics… (you’re welcome!) because today’s show is all about the music and hard work of Canadian singer/songwriter AHI – whose recently released album, In Our Time, made the top ten charts on iTunes.

He was featured on our #InRetroFanFARE a few weeks ago. And we’ve been fortunate enough to have him on this show – to share the methodology behind his work, and his sound with all of you.

Tune in to hear how nice guys don’t finish last – and how AHI makes his big break with Grammy Award-winning producer David Macias of Thirty Tigers.

Show Notes
This week we speak with one of the finalists of last year’s CBC Searchlight competition – and they’ve been going non-stop since then - Poor Angus joins us - and we’ll be playing music from their latest album – Gathering – you’re going to love it …

It’s life, music talk, all grown up – 
Today's Guest: Poor Angus
We’re excited to have Poor Angus join us for this week’s show. From out of Hamilton, Ontario band members include Andrew Bryan, Ross Griffiths, Joel Guenther, DJ Moons and Brian LeBlanc.

They’ve just released their CD titled Gathering – and I immediately fell in love with it. They’re a Celtic band with a huge twist of folk – And they’re taking both Canada and the U.S. by storm with this latest album.  I caught up with Brian LeBlanc of the group earlier this week in Hamilton, Ontario.  We talk about the making of the group, the making of this latest album – and about the song, Something I Can’t See, which landed them in the final four out of 3,000 bands in CBC’s Searchlight competition.  Click the play link at the top of this page to hear our conversation – along with some of their great music! ]]>http://nancyduffy.ca/?p=352Sun, 02 Feb 2014 15:30:49 +0000Nancy DuffyBand members of Poor Angus include Brian LeBlanc, Andrew Bryan, DJay Moons, Joel Guenther and Ross Griffiths. http://thenancyduffyshow.com/shows/NancyDuffyShow-No.027-2014.02.02-PoorAngus.mp3 Show Notes This week we speak with one of the finalists of...

This week we speak with one of the finalists of last year’s CBC Searchlight competition – and they’ve been going non-stop since then - Poor Angus joins us - and we’ll be playing music from their latest album – Gathering – you’re going to love it …

It’s life, music talk, all grown up – 
Today's Guest: Poor Angus
We’re excited to have Poor Angus join us for this week’s show. From out of Hamilton, Ontario band members include Andrew Bryan, Ross Griffiths, Joel Guenther, DJ Moons and Brian LeBlanc.

They’ve just released their CD titled Gathering – and I immediately fell in love with it. They’re a Celtic band with a huge twist of folk – And they’re taking both Canada and the U.S. by storm with this latest album.  I caught up with Brian LeBlanc of the group earlier this week in Hamilton, Ontario.  We talk about the making of the group, the making of this latest album – and about the song, Something I Can’t See, which landed them in the final four out of 3,000 bands in CBC’s Searchlight competition.  Click the play link at the top of this page to hear our conversation – along with some of their great music! ]]>1659falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-25-the-music-of-ennis-plus-are-train-derailments-making-a-case-for-pipelines--67644352https://api.spreaker.com/episode/49974731Mon, 13 Jan 2014 03:17:00 +0000Nancy Duffy1275falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-09-singer-songwriter-deanna-cartea-joins-us-live-plus-the-sweet-home-grown-music-of-windsor--67644311https://api.spreaker.com/episode/49974790Wed, 26 Sep 2012 02:36:00 +0000Nancy Duffy2487falsefull
