Back home after cardiac arrest—with CPR bruises, pneumonia, and a $50K shock device in my chest. My dog barely noticed. My family tried to keep things normal. I felt anything but. This episode covers the first painful, disorienting, and darkly funny week of recovery—when survival didn’t feel like victory.

Episode 15: Homecoming with Upgrades

👉 This is a serialized story. Start with Episode 1 so it all makes sense.
A heart attack. Cardiac arrest. Heart valve replacement.
I survived all three—and now I’m trying to make sense of the wreckage they left behind.
This isn’t a podcast about advice, inspiration, or being strong.
It’s raw. It’s honest. Sometimes dark. Sometimes funny.
Just me, processing the absurdity of what happened—physically, emotionally, spiritually—and saying the things I couldn’t say in the moment.
If you’ve ever faced something life-shattering… maybe this will land with you too.
