It's not broken. It's the system we built." - Jeff Woodward.

Join me in welcoming my first guest on this podcast, Jeff Woodward. Jeff is the program manager and Outreach & Navigation Program Manager at  Mental Health & Addiction Association of Oregon. 

Jeff Woodward was very candid with me about what led him from the corporate world to the world of homelessness, the suicide of his wife in 2009.

Our discussion takes us through the emotional state people can find themselves in after a tragedy, to life on the streets, our perceived perception of mismanagement in Oregon that has led to the homeless crisis, the current state of Portland, Oregon.

Jeff also speaks of Apple in downtown Portland hiring a peer specialist to help with the homeless situation near the Downtown Portland Apple Store.

We continue on speaking of our sons' mental illnesses, Wapato, now known as Bybee Lakes, non profits in Oregon, greed, dirty money, passions, and then throw in a bit about Harley Davidsons and we have an episode that is gripping, tragic, hopeful and is filled with twists and turns.

I offer my thoughts on TPI, also known as Transition Projects that, I feel, gave me false hope concerning my son that led up to his untimely death.

If you're struggling with relationships or you know someone who is, then you need to watch this episode. It will help you understand the dynamics of the toxic family system.

This girl is getting worked up! Maybe it will burn some calories. 

Evidently I have some whack family members, IMO. Toxic tweets, defamation, libel, slander, the list goes on and on. 

Some how they seem to make their way through life with eyes wide shut. I feel for my brother having to deal with all this.

Today, for some reason, I actually had another another topic to discuss, but I really felt strongly that I needed to do an episode on taking accountability for my actions. It's no longer scary to me today. It used to be really scary to take accountability, but I think it's just another step in growth. And I know many of you may be thinking, Oh gosh, I don't want to admit everything I've done.

Well, you know, it's part of who you are now. It's part of who I am now. Everything this happened to me, everything I allowed to happen, everything I did, I have chosen to work for the best and to benefit me so I can grow. I don't want to stay stuck like where I was. I don't want to stay is broken as I was when I first broke.

I have a secondary text line now where you can text me your ideas, if you think you might want to be a guest on Digging Through Dominoes, or perhaps, a member of a live panel.

That number is : 503-770-8699

Mastermind Lyrics:

After years of searching, Teri Anderson speaks of how she was able to recognize what the hole in her heart was and how it may have come to be.

Listen to Teri's story and perhaps you may find some of the answers you've been searching for your entire life.

By reading Jasmin Lee Cori's book, The Emotionally Absent Mother, Teri made realizations, looked further into her childhood, and is beginning to understand how impacted she was by her mother inability to be emotionally available.

In this episode, The Holes Left By Our Mothers, we explore the topic of PTSD and how to identify and deal with the holes left by our mothers. We also discuss the importance of lifelong learning and how to overcome obstacles through internal family systems.

PTSD affects everyone differently, so it's important that everyone knows about it and recognizes the signs and symptoms. This awareness month is a perfect opportunity to discuss PTSD and its effects with your loved ones. By working together, we can help to create a healthy and supportive environment for all affected by PTSD.

Teri talks about the holes that were actually left by our mothers, how these holes led to C--PTSD, and how healing complex PTSD can be done. She shares her experiences, insights and advice on how to heal from PTSD and live a life of freedom and joy.

If you're struggling with PTSD or any other mental health condition, be sure to subscribe to Digging Through Dominoes so you can learn from the experiences of others like Teri Anderson.

Mastermind lyrics by Taylor Swift: https://genius.com/Taylor-swift-mastermind-lyrics

WOW! I didn't expect this one but it came at the right time and correlated nicely with Chapter 7 of The Emotionally Absent Mother by Jasmin Lee Cori on neglect and abuse.

Listen to what happened when a family member opened up her can of abuse with me.

The video version on the YouTube version of Digging Through Dominoes should be up tomorrow with her scathing, self centered, remarks, that I took screen shots of, inserted. We don't want any miscommunication, as I've noticed as common in my mother's family.

I'm grateful though. Her attitude showed me the complexity of the environment my mother had grown up in.

This video does not diagnose anyone with any disorder, only points out similarities with Jasmin Lee Cori's book, The Emotionally Absent Mother.

It made me see the situation my Mother grew up in differently and how she, and her sisters, in my opinion, were scarred.

Healthy people just don't do this.

A recent event shook me so much I wondered if a person can have too much therapy?

A recent event shook me so much I wondered if a person can have too much therapy?

After the events unfolded I was in a near panic attack, searching for answers and wishing for normal, whatever normal is. 

I felt the emotion, the body memories, from decades past enveloping me. Had I taken my therapy too far?
