In this episode, I discuss my ultimate goal for you. I also share a few foundational concepts that I'll be mentioning quite a bit in future episodes.

As I get ready to kick-off Season 6, I wanted to share my goals for the podcast and prepare you for upcoming episodes which will dive into more complicated and controversial topics.

For anyone that might be new to the podcast, this is the new starting point! Please start here and move to the most recent episode, then head back to Episode 1.

Matt had his dream job working for talkSPORT, the world's biggest sports radio station. He was traveling the world watching sport and to a casual observer, everything in his life was going great. However, he was slowly being consumed by gambling.

In this episode, Matt shares not only his struggles, but the success he has found as he now hasn't gambled in 6 years!

You can thank Matt and give him a follow on Instagram @stinkingthinking

"I can't wait for 2020 to be over!"

I think we've all said or felt this at some point during the year. However, it's important to keep life in perspective.

This one is a long time in the making and I can't wait for you to get to know Thomie!

Thomie Isreal has been at the top running successful businesses, but struggles with gambling took everything away from him including his freedom and family. When Thomie first reached out to me, he was living in a homeless shelter in New York City.

Now, Thomie shares his journey as he once again climbs the mountain on his Instagram page @FindingSummit and The Daily Bag Podcast. Be sure to follow his page!

With today being Halloween, I thought it would be a great time to talk about fears.

After a four-month break, I'm back to share my thoughts on self-sabotage and the role it plays in my life.

After two months away from gambling due to COVID-19 lockdowns, Nancy was drawn back to the casino.

In this episode, we discuss the challenges of quarantine, how a big win was the hook for future problem gambling, how casino marketing creates issues as she tries to quit, and her definition of success going forward.

I also provide a few tactical tips Nancy can implement today to help her as she looks to improve her life.
