May in Mental Health Awareness Month, and substance abuse disorders often go hand in hand with other mental health issues. We are so thankful to have had this open and honest conversation with Lesley Sareen, an amazing mama of two. She lost her 37 year old son Andrew to Fentanyl last year and there is so much to learn about addiction, mental health and the unwavering love a parent has for her child as she shares her story of motherhood and loss. Thank you Lesley for giving so much of yourself to educate others and to save lives.

We could not be more thrilled to have our good friend Sean Keenan back on the podcast to break down the ups and downs of parenting and sports. Sean is a former college football player, a retired and respected educator with over three decades of experience, a seasoned basketball and football coach, and most importantly, a devoted husband, dad and grandpa. Listen in to hear about how NOT to be 'that' parent, what every coach wishes every parent would say/do and why the losses are more important than the wins.

Thank you to this week's sponsors!
