It's always a bit of a surprise to me to find other podcast hosts/producers out in the wild. And it was a delight to meet my guest, Collin Strajack, at the local Pride Fest activities back in June 2023. We had a lot to discuss and especially so after I did a dive into his podcast episodes.

He's worth your time to listen to his episodes, so I hope you hop over to his show after this episode!

PLEASE NOTE: there are discussions about substance use disorder, and suicide in this episode.

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 enviroment 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. "

Holiday Hiatus Episode 3 "How To Create A Publishing Company The F*cking Punk Way OR Boundaries: Pretty Good For A Happy Life"

I had the great good fortune to have a long conversation with the founder and CEO (as well as being an author) of Microcosm Publishing, Joe Biel.

Joe generously gifted me time from a busy schedule, running a successful independent publishing company to talk about coming to publishing, discussing the journey to where the company is now, and how mental health has been presented in books in previous years and what the books that are being written look like in more recent years. 

Full disclosure, I'm a fan of Microcosm Publishing being a consumer of many of their books.

This final new episode of 2022 is hella good fun, interesting and I enjoyed my too short time chatting with Joe. 

You can find more information on Microcosm Publishing, including the books they publish, here:

Whenever I hear the word "narcissistic," I always call to mind Eddie Izzard's "Deathstar Canteen" sketch especially this segment:
"Do you know who I am?"
"Do you know who *I* am?"
"This is not a game of Who The F*ck Are You..."

The term narcissistic gets used incorrectly all over the place, but Narcissistic Personality Disorder causes some serious damage in many relationships.

CEO and creator of The M.A.D. Beyond, Alexandra Skinner Walsh, joins me to discuss one area she has been working with clients for many years. It's been an area of such passion for Alex that she's gone and created an online ecourse about the personality disorder and how it affects persons in families and other relationships.

You can find more info on the ecourse on Alex's site here:
