    Send us Fan Mail

    Hello hello hello!


    Thank you all so so much for listening to this episode of Advice 4 The Living! This episode was truly upsetting over the absolutely disgusting treatment of a beautiful, shy, and timid 4-year-old.  Kudos to the dad for protecting his son and not backing down from injustice and cruelty. To everyone that that can relate (which I hope you can’t), I’m so sorry and I hope you find solace, peace and comfort in knowing you’re not alone.  


    For everyone listening — regardless of if you can relate or not — I hope you can at least take away something that stood out to you or a tidbit of something to think about!


    Also, I want to reiterate my appreciation for everything you do to interact with this podcast. While downloads are the most helpful (especially if the video has an ad), I truly  appreciate all of it.  From you liking/favouriting/saving the podcast itself or specific episodes that resonate with/stand out to you, to sharing it (either on or off-line/by word of mouth), to when you give it a rating/review on the app you’re tuning in from, and even when you just simply listen.  It really helps propel this podcast forward in the algorithm so that more people can join our ever-growing community movement of difference-makers, world-changers, and those who genuinely care about our fellow humans who are struggling with an invisible burden, even if we don’t share the same opinions/beliefs.  There’s always mutual support and respect and it’s so humbling and beautiful to be a part of!


    I also really appreciate all of your email submissions, because without them…this podcast wouldn’t exist.  So if you have a topic/subject matter, circumstance or problem/issue/dilemma that you want me to share my thoughts, perspective, advice and opinions on and discussed in an episode, please don’t hesitate to email me at [email protected] and I check my messages constantly so stay tuned because you’ll never know when your submission will be next!


    Thank you all once again for everything, and I can’t wait to catch you in the next one!  Bye folks!


    PS. No pressure whatsoever but if you ever feel like giving me a “tip” for the work I put into this podcast, please head to buymeacoffee.com/Advice4TheLiving No amount is too small and I *genuinely* can’t emphasize enough how much I’d appreciate it!  I do have to  pay out of pocket to produce these episodes, so no account is too small and will forever be a massive gift!  That being said, whether you give me $0 or a billion dollars…I’ll love you all just the same!


    PPS. I am so sorry if there is an ad on this video, I know how annoying they are… But if you download an episode, where an ad is playing, I do get a bit of a kickback so thank you all so much for understanding and being patient with me.

    Thank you all so so much for listening to this episode of the Advice 4 The Living podcast! 


    This episode was definitely difficult to read simply due to the cringe and secondhand-embarrassment factor.  It was also the first time we’ve received a follow-up/ update from someone!  Jarrod’s original episode  was Episode 123.  If you can relate (which I certainly hope you can’t), I hope you find solace, peace and comfort in knowing you’re not alone.  And for everyone listening — regardless of whether you can relate or not — I hope you can at least take away something that stood out to you or something to think about.
