She's a 10 Times 5

Addiction can be viewed as a dirty word and something that is associated with shame.  However, it is a legitimate problem that many of us will have to confront with our kids, family members, friends or colleagues.  Scott Silverman knows about this all too well.  A once functioning substance abuser, he found himself in his early 30's standing on a ledge of a hotel wanting to end his life.  He got help, has been in recovery ever since and has dedicated his life to helping individuals and families find their own path to recovery.  In this interview, Scott tells his story and also paints a dramatic picture of the growing problem of addition-- especially coming off the pandemic.  From screen time to substance abuse, he shares what he knows and what to be aware of-- especially with teens and young adult age groups, who are exposed to more dangers then once existed.  Being surrounded by multiple screens can be impossible to migrate away from.  Easy access counterfeit medications, such as dark web/street purchased  Xanax or Adderall, can be laced with chemicals that can cause accidental overdoses.  Skittle parties and dangerous games are now in the mix.  While this discussion is somewhat grave, Scott also provides some levity and hope along the way, with natural charisma, sarcasm and wit that you will find disarming and engaging.

As we enter this next phase of our "Second and Third Acts,"  our relationships with our friends become more important than ever.  We are more clear on what matters.  We get better clarity of who adds to our happiness and provides us unconditional support.  We become more selective with who we want to our share time and energy.   Finally, we gain more comfort in eliminating those who don't bring us light and love us for who we are.  Let's face it, our "squad" and circle becomes tighter and more meaningful.  Join Lisa and Laurie for a quick, informal and honest heart to heart on all of it, as well as some of their personal squad goals.

This episode is a story of an amazing "Bansky" type of project our guest Michael Lamb, his wife and two kids embraced leading up to Mike's 50th birthday milestone.   One year in the making, the Lamb family designed, created and anonymously deployed seven massive pieces of art throughout the San Diego community.   In the seven weeks leading up to his birthday event, each week a new piece of "pop-up" art would be installed in the middle of the night at random locations that were symbolically selected by Mike and his "secret team."   This project not only got weekly news and extensive social media coverage, but it inspired and engaged the entire surrounding community.  Each of the seven pieces had special meaning to Mike, and were cleverly designed and constructed by the entire Lamb family.  This story and journey is an inspiration to all that taking on something big in scale is possible,  including  our kids and family in the process is an invaluable experience, and the positive effects are far greater then just the gesture and act.
