"Memories Made Visible"
 Guest: Kerri Bilston
Original air date: 02/08/2024


One of my girls, Kerri, is joining me for the first time on this podcast! We chat about her decision behind getting her tattoos, and process of getting tattoos done. I was pleased that she had the time in her busy schedule to sit and chat with me.

Kerri's info:
"I have a Bachelor's degree in Animal Science with additional course work in food safety and microbiology. While I currently work in grants administration, I've also worked as a project coordinator for a marketing company, a certified pharmacy technician in both retail and hospital settings, and have almost a decade of experience as a barista. When not trying to keep up with my son, I enjoy reading, knitting and crocheting, trying out new recipes, and tackling home renovation projects."

Kristie Fuller is a practicing LMHC via telehealth for clients in Florida, by being her sweary genuine self: " I help people who are intimidated by stuffy, bored, tired, and traditional style therapy. It's just fuckin' therapy, right? Why can't it be more direct, more brash, real, down to earth, and genuine without all the bullshit?

I specialize in working with adults who are ready to deepen their awareness of their internal landscape, so that they can understand who they are, what they are thinking and feeling, and how those interact to create behaviors.

My practice is welcoming to everyone looking for someone who is dedicated to creating an environment that is inclusive, diverse, LGBT friendly, sex-positive and neurodivergent-affirming.  My clients enjoy working with me because I create a safe space for them to be truly their authentic self. "

Season 3 Episode 11
Original air date: 03/27/2023

Dr. Karen Cramer, owner and optometrist of her practice 20/20 Eyecare Solutions, joins me to have a layman's discussion of our personal experiences with our health and mental health, and how we found our eating habits affected it. 

We do talk about food and nutrition, but we don't set out to demonize foods. Everyone has to eat according to what they have access to, what is affordable, and what environment folx have to prepare their food in. From each of our specific careers, we see how nutrition affects those persons we work with as well as our colleagues, family and friends.

PLEASE NOTE: We discuss multiple topics and some may be distressing to listeners: discussion food and eating routines.

DISCLAIMER STATEMENT: Both myself and my guest are not certified or licensed nutritionists, dieticians or specialist medical providers outside of our area of licensure. This is only our personal experiences and opinions, and in no way are we advocating for anyone to embark on any special diets or eating patterns without the proper support and guidance. Consult with your own Primary Care Provider and/or medical care team for any of your health concerns and dietary questions.
