The podcast currently has 124 episodes available.
Come Join us for the second part of Real “the best of OTR – Achieving Mental Health for Real”. Part 2 picks up the remaining episodes of 2020 and the first part of 2021. This information packed episode brings you practical advice on how you can recover from any mental health conditions.
I like to dedicate this Real series to my guest in 2020 Dr. Allyson Boodram MD (Pediatrician). She died with lung cancer in 2022 caused by the 9/11 tragedy 21 years later from working in the toxic environment as a nurse.
I hope you can relate and get information and inspiration to start a real recovery program from the Real series.
It also became apparent that I will need a fourth episode of Real to cover the excellent information in the podcast. So, part three will be released on our five year anniversary October 23rd. Part 4 will come out soon after that.

This episode we talk to Doctor Cristina Castagnini who fully recovered from an eating disorder and now gives personal and professional perspectives about struggles with food, weight, and body image. She has 25 years of clinical experience as a licensed psychologist and certified eating disorder specialist.
This is a mental health issue that doesn’t get talked about enough. You hear about women and men, especially teens, who suffer in silence. Some do not get any treatment at all, until its too late.
Not eating or binge eating are serous conditions. They could well lead to organ damage or death.
Social media targets our children with messages that they are not good enough. Society also pressures people, especially teenagers, to fit into a certain body type. This could lead to the development of an eating disorder.
We agree that most people who diet gain back the weight and they yoyo back and forth. However, I think in general, people should eat healthy . I believe, especially certain people, like over fifty-five and people with depression are much better off eating healthy food and maintaining a healthy body fat.
We both agree that dieting is too popular in this country and this attitude may lead people to be too restrictive with food that may be considered unhealthy. Not getting enough food can be as damaging as being on a strict crash diet were we may not get the nutrients we need.
I think yoyo dieting may be considered worse for you than if you didn’t diet at all. Again, we didn’t quite agree on dieting. By no means does this show want to tell people whether to diet. That, I think, comes down to a person-to-person basis. The show offers more input to make a good decision in your life.
But we all agree that this is a huge problem, and I am glad to get another perspective. Please enjoy.
Listener Notes:
Don’t forget to check out part 1 of the Real series highlighting the best of 5 years at OTR. Coming soon is the Premium package of OTR with all the scripts of the programs starting with the Real series. Also, you can make a request for up to 5 of the older shows. Nothing will change if you stay at the basic price. I am just trying to find money to spread the knowledge contained in the Podcast. I would also like more feedback about the show from any of the listeners, so it can become “our “ Podcast not just mine. All money will be reinvested into ads or for better quality. No matter how big we get there will never be a commercial break on the show.
Thanks everyone for listening.

Best of OTR-Achieving Mental Health for Real and also the 100th episode of the show. This is part one and covers the first half of 2020. The rest of the year will be in part two which premiers on the last week of September. This installment covers top rated show including Brett Steven’s episodes for the Book Crossover. Also clips from Gigi Langer with “50 ways to worry less now”
Note: The whooshing sound you hear begins the next clip.
Also included are clip from another favorite Garage Talk Talks and the popular episode on Apple “Angela” about a remarkable young women Angela Angela Cristadoro who is restricted to a wheelchair with moebius Syndrome yet periveers and has a quality of life. Its difficult to understand her because of her issue but well worth it.
Bill Macphee talks about his struggle with which might be the cruelist afflication of all Schizophrenia. Yet through the help of medicine lead a Quality life now.
And my favorite interview of all from “Dyslexia – Fighting Back” with my oldest son Brian who rose above the inflection to become head paster at a Christian church. He talk about his attitude and adjustments he took fighting back at Dyslexia.
The beginning has one of the first interviews I had on the show with Mike Sheehan in ”Garage Talk Talks.
This was all I could fit in part 1 in a little over an hour. Part two will have the rest of 2020 and 2021 and there will be shorter clips. I just wanted to highlight these first episodes, since many people might have missed them way back when and except for the sound are some of the best of OTR (over the rainbow).
I have some great Guests for season 10 which will begin in January and will be our greatest season. The show will be leaning towards more ADHD, bi polar and ptsd as well as continuing coverage for all other mental health conditions.
As you may know OTR will have its own patreon site so our community can come together. In Lieu of commercials, I am trying A Premium package for just 34 dollars a year or $2.99 a month, which will include transcripts of all the shows including the three parts of Real – OTR “best of” plus many other perks. As I said in the first clip of Garage talk talks, I was scared to come out with my full name. I am scared no more, and I encourage others, If safe, to come out and join the community. I would love any feedback at all. Everyone will have access whether you sign up for the Premium package or not.
But in order to keep things going I am going to need some help. Even, anything, you can contribute to my GoFundMe site. I will be publishing all about the Premium package sometime in September.
Our listeners keep growing and I am looking forward to the next five seasons. I will not stop until the world gets to join our mission. As long as I can, I will be learning and learning about what can help us all and lead us to a new better world.
I am going to set up a Patreon Site to try to bring us together . I think it will help. There, i will offer a Premium package for OTR. Again, there will be no change to have the base package. The show is doing great, but it can be much bigger with your help. The Premium package will be $2.99 monthly or 34 dollars a year and will include the following:
You will continue to receive commercial free forever.
The Patreon page will have detail information about the new Premium package starting with the "best of" episode called "Real" on October 23rd, the 5 year mark. I will be publishing the page some time in October. Enjoy the transcripts' and other benefits.
There are big plans for season 10 starting in January. I know more about what people want to hear and that will improve the qualities of the shows. I plan to start recording season 10 in September to play starting in January.

Dominika Staniewicz is my guest today. She is an amazingly accomplished woman who gives back to society her gift of healing. Dominka originally received an MS in sociology and education and worked as a successful career coach in Europe. However, despite her professional success, she felt unfulfilled and out of place. When she lost her 16-month-old son and struggled with depression and low self-esteem, she became trapped in a negative mindset and believed that the world was against her due to her inability to cope with the trauma.
She realized that it was not possible for everything and everyone around her to be wrong or bad. This realization marked the beginning of her transformation journey.
She began learning about how the brain and emotion’s function, and eventually trained and qualified as an Elite Neuro Encoding specialist at the Neuroencoding Institute with Joseph McClendon III. She also graduated from Amen University with a rare certification as a Brain coach and Trainer. She became one of the few certified brain coaches in the world with a scientific and holistic coaching approach.
Come join us as we talk about her approach to trauma. ADHD and other mental issues

At first, I hesitated to have her on the show. I tend to not go for “cure all” methods of healing. However, we talked about what she believes in and how it helped her husband who has Alzheimer's. It is not an infomercial for a miracle drug that fixes everything. However, I thought she presented her case well and so I think it’s worth a listen.
In this episode, Krystal Clark shares her story of her molestation at the age of seven from her cousin who was even younger. This abuse and the shame she felt triggered her Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) later in life.
Krystal Clark is now doing well in her recovery. She is an Author, Blogger, Life Coach, Public Speaker, and Data Management Professional.
Krystal has published several books including a Fantasy Fiction book called “Balance Of Power” which chronicles the mental toll trauma can take. Krystal also has a podcast called ‘Moving with Meaning-The Podcast’ in which she talks about many topics.
This is an important episode about the effects of this type of trauma, especially at such a young age. It is my opinion that this type of abuse is rampant in the U.S. and around the world. In a lot of cases these acts cause great mental anguish throughout the victim’s life. I feel in most cases it goes unreported because of the shame victims feel.
If we work together this world would be a much better place to live in. Since this month is Mental Health month, now is the time to fight for our and our children’s contentment and happiness. This world is what we make it. Suffering is a part of life, like losing. You have to grow from it. We do not need to add to it by hiding in shame and fearing judgement from others.
Society gives you permission to drink or take harmful drugs that only cover up the pain for a short time. The damage mental health issues do to our society is everywhere. What would it be like if you were happy and achieving mental health for real.

Meet Kat Kennan who is recovering and doing well with CPSTD. Kat was sexually abused at a very young age and took abuse from her brother while growing up. She is a passionate advocate for trauma survivors, leading her to establish the PTS/C-PTS advocacy organization, “Stand Up to Trauma”. Through this organization, she enables others to heal and thrive beyond their traumatic experiences.
Come join us as we talk about how her company teaches “Brand Empathy”. We also talk about “Cancel Culture”, CPTSD/PTSD, and of course the recovery from CPTSD.
On a Personal Note,
Turns out the Raspy voice I’ve had over the last year or so was an issue with my vocal cords, especially on the left side. I hope to be back by the last quarter.
I have several great episodes coming up, don’t miss it. Podchaser has 100 but Apple says 5 more which will be there by October 23rd 2024. Also a two part episode of “best of” with OTR bloopers. I want to thank the guests and all of you which is what the show is about. Bob

Meet Ryan Winter, a French Cajun author born and raised near the city of New Orleans. He tells his story of depression which seems to be a mixture of heredity and the misfortunes that occurred in his life, including Hurricane Katrina.
He is an experienced Freelance Writer with a demonstrated history of working in the writing and editing industry. Ryan is skilled in Film Production, Linguistics, Creative Writing, and Short Films.
He describes his childhood, which he felt was free of any signs of depression. I found it interesting that, like me, his mental health issues mostly started entering 7th grade in a harsher new school environment. Ryan talks about how bad situations and possibly a predisposition for depression affected him from that point on.
French Cajun author of 3 books in vastly different genres: "New Orleans Mother Goose", a children's picture book released Sept. 2014 by Pelican Publishing Co... "Wake the Devil" a historical fiction based on the infamous Axeman murders of 1918 New Orleans published by Lulu Press, Inc... and "Ravish" a darkly erotic story self-published through Amazon KDP released in November 2019
So listen to his long road to recovery while he still works on living a much happier life.

Meet Kristof Morrow, a 34-year-old Navy veteran, an award winning journalist/photographer author of literary work "The Second Sun," which already sold more than 13 hundred copies . “Second Sun,” went viral on TikTok in June and it is recommended reading in university classes studying literature.
Life gave no freebies to Kristof. Growing up, his parents viciously abused him daily.
In the Navy, at the age of 18, he showed symptoms of an affliction he would discover years later was a rare type of Tourette Syndrome (TS), a condition of the nervous system. TS causes people to have “tics”. Tics are sudden twitches, movements, or sounds that people make repeatedly. This is his story of courage as he struggles with the negative emotional and social affects that Tourette’s can have on anyone.
Growing up, he was the third born but the first to graduate high school,
He taught himself to write while serving in the US Navy as a Corpsman, right after high school.
After the navy, Kristof became an EMT around the age of 23, then a 911 dispatcher at 26 before earning, by audition, a job at a newspaper. He was 27 years old and won awards from two Texas Press Associations for feature writing and photography.
I think neurodivergent people can relate to Kristof’s struggles. Inside he is a very intelligent person, but on the outside people might see only his Tourette's. Somehow, he navigates life.
This is his inspirational story.

In this episode I speak to Laura Giles a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is a Shadow Worker and Coach. She also hosts the podcast “Modern Animism Radio, a holistic spiritual path.”
Laura uses holistic methods to help people remember what it means to be a part of nature and connect our healthy, authentic selves to others and the world.
She has spent her career in trauma work and has discovered that the way forward is by going through the dark, ugly hurt of the past. As we release the negative programs that AREN'T us, our true, beautiful selves emerge.
A Shadow worker works with your unconscious mind to uncover the parts of yourself that you repress and hide from yourself. This can include trauma or parts of your personality that you subconsciously consider undesirable.
Laura has different online groups at her website (see below). Learn more about how this may be able to help your recovery and enjoy this informative episode.
