This is Part 1 of a fun conversation that I had with Matt Mercurio, an ex-client and best friend of mine from 25 years ago. Matt was one of the first clients that I had when I moved my training business into Boston gay gyms.

This is an episode about Procrastination and Lack of Motivation. Often these things can be directly tied to lack of physical or mental energy to take on the task. How can we stay energetic? Well, Energy Builds Energy.

Sometimes when we get older, especially if we are single and alone, we ruminate on past embarrassing situations or errors that we have made. I wanted to explain my philosophy on how I look at past problems. I talk about how I grew up with a dying mother and how that shaped my life over all these years. I hope this might be some use to you. 

In the conclusion of our 5-Part Series on Sgt. Ron's Gay Military Life Stories, he concludes with some intriguing tales of how far the U.S. Military used to go to 'weed out' any suspected (gasp!) HOMOSEXUALS !  He also tells us stories about Turkish Baths (saunas) and his encounters with other foreign soldiers.

In Part 4 of our 5-Part Series, Sgt. Ron continues his amazing story-telling and discusses his time in Turkey. This is a funny and fascinating tale, giving us insight into what it was like as a gay man in the Military in the 1980's and 1990's.

LGBTQ author Ste7en (yes, the 7 is on purpose) joins me to discuss his brand-new memoir The Last Alias, a book discussing his very successful career as an Anime director, writer and producer. We talk about his cult-hit Ghost Stories and how that influenced his life. The Last Alias also dives into his previous 'straight' life and his discovery of multiple aspects of his personality that allowed Ste7en to live as his authentic self.
