Learning to control our response to others is not as easy as it sounds. Learning how to monitor our emotions, how we respond, and learn to work with others is a valuable skill. This week we are talking about Dan Goleman's research into understanding ourselves and our emotions better.

We talk with Jarom Thurston - who was our first international listener from down in Brazil. He shares how he started into marathon running and then moved into ULTRA marathon races. We discuss how he started from an "I'll try it "and pivoted into a whole lifestyle. Be sure to check out his episodes with Coach Blu on our sister show - Addict to Athlete, here on the Radio Ronin network.

This week's podcast finds Coach Blu speaking with Bob Balford, a pillar in his community, working his way through life by serving others who have been affected by addiction, are pursuing recovery, and building bridges between law enforcement and the recovery community.  Bob speaks about his childhood, situational issues through family systems that sidetracked his progression. Bob comes with a powerful history of seeing both sides of addiction, the consequences, and redemption. Then turning his attention to health and wellness through running, coaching, and building others to do the same, Bob has truly become Boston-strong. Bob is a storyteller, and as you listen to his life, you'll understand why he was also able to build a relationship with Coach David Clark, as Bob was a crucial mentor through David's Boston quad experience.  Please join Addict to Athlete’s Patreon support page and help us turn the mess of addiction into the message of sobriety! https://www.patreon.com/addicttoathlete For more information on Team Addict to Athlete and Addiction Recovery Podcasts, please visit our website. https://www.AddictToAthlete.org
