January 19, 2022 The One Where April is the guest on the 100th Ep with an amazing before & after!
Finally hit 100 episodes done! So I figure for number 100 I should give one of the craziest before and after to date. April definitely might have one of the most shocking before & after I have seen or had on the show in a while! We talk about how drugs would make her spin out of control very quickly. She was born and raised in NJ, so a Jersey girl. Like a lot of us, it can be toxic and we do have a tough time being around there and avoiding people places and things. She’s doing much better now and we talk all about what happened, how she got sober, and how she’s staying sober today.

January 11, 2022 The One Where Courtney survives generational trauma and addiction to tell her story
This is one of the first times in 5 years that Courtney sat down and told her story in long form the way we do! We definitely cover a lot from how she grew up in Alberta, Canada province with her fathers side of the family being indigenous to their land. Which, anyone who knows whats been happening lately in Canada knows how part of this story could go. She has a child now and been sober 5 years and doing amazing things! Post Script- sorry for all the hockey talk, I can't help it when I find a fellow Oilers fan to nerd out with!

In December 2020 Nathan was 20% away from being disabled which led to a big operation and immediate rehab for drugs and alcohol. He works a solid program now and just last month celebrated one year clean and sober! He is the third guest I’ve had on the show from the UK and the first guy, the stories from over there some wild ones. He spent a lot of his addiction years being a DJ around Cardiff and tells a story about a stabbing to open the episode!

January 03, 2022 The One Where Mike returns to inspire2inspire for the Season 2 opener!
Mike Fiore is a great friend and I couldn’t think of a better way to start of season 2 and 2022 with someone as motivating as he is! Mikes been on the show before back around thanksgiving. Actually, we recorded his first appearance two days before and he was telling me how his mom wasn’t doing good then. Unfortunately on thanksgiving his mom did pass. This time around I wanted to get the audience caught up with how he stayed sober thru such a painful death. He had already lost his father and was taking care of his mom who was sick up until he went into treatment 6 months ago. You’ll be able to find all of Mikes socials below because like we talk about he loves hearing from people who want to get sober. If you need support reach out. If you just want to hear a message then follow him on either of his socials below. He is consistently one of the most inspirational people across the three platforms I look for recovery in. Literally living recovery out loud daily and living on a promise to his mother to Inspire2inspire all across the world.
RIP Geraldine Caradonna

December 31, 2021 The One When Laurie finds sobriety through her sons addiction
It is the season 1 finale and end of 2021! I can’t believe this is the 37th straight episode I’ve released in a row. You won’t have to wait long for new episodes rolling January 3rd! Laurie is a fellow sober podcaster with an amazing platform! Her YouTube channel is linked below as well. She’s coming up on almost a dozen years of continuous sobriety in February! We talk about her podcast and how she was about to drive to Canada that day to do an interview. She’s extremely dedicated to her show, it’s very obvious from someone just as dedicated as she. We discuss some of her drinking years, but also how she found sobriety through her sons relapse. I’ve definitely noticed a theme doing my show with mothers in sobriety with both the madness in addiction and the struggle getting and staying sober all while being a mom. Laur’s world is a great channel and check it out at the link below!

December 29, 2021 The One With the first Philly girl and podcast host, Jewels
Jewels has been sober for a few years and is also a podcast host! Her podcast named grabbed my attention on social media right away because I love the show How I Met Your Mother! Her and her mom have both had struggles with sobriety and we get into her history and how she got sober and why it’s working for her today! She’s a born and raised Philly girl which is my first, which is kind of weird since I am from that area, but was definitely a pleasure to have her on. Check out her show at the link below where I’ll be a guest in an upcoming episode!
