The Be Ruthless Show

There are so many things this world has opinions about - and some things are judged more harshly than others.

Bigger stigmas.

Addiction. Abuse.

Today’s guest on The Be Ruthless Show discusses both - and how unresolved assault issues actually tie into her addiction.

Danielle Miller is just a regular girl from Detroit, Michigan, and today she’s a stay-at-home mom. Danielle feels like she’s jumped through every obstacle that life has thrown at her - good and bad. They have run the gamut.

From being sexually assaulted to dealing with addiction to losing her kids because of that addiction. After years of self- shame and humiliation, Danielle is finally able to write about these things, all the while hoping that by sharing the darkest parts of it all, she can also help anyone else who is suffering in silence.

So much devastation in this world right now - and it’s not over. I don’t know about you, but I’m finding it difficult to concentrate.

On today’s episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I discuss some of the myths in this world that I reject, such as fake it until you make it. I discuss Mental Illness Awareness Week, and the 2024 theme ‘At Work.’ (I added ‘At School.’)

Now more than ever let’s have the conversations. Let’s not pretend things are fine when life is anything but!

It has been a bizarre week - to say the least!

L’Shana Tova to all who celebrate! 11 years later, and it’s still hard not being in Michigan with my family.

To those expecting a live episode with Jen Simpnic today, thanks in advance for understanding. Jen’s episode will be LIVE on 10/16!

On today’s episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I discuss how to deal with the life lessons you didn’t sign up for. Mistakes. Adjustments. I take all of these as signs from Jim and ways to connect with Jim. Things I say thank you for, not ‘why me?!

Nationwide Verizon Outages. I thought I pushed some button messing up the settings on my phone :D

For real, though! It’s been known to happen!

Instead, on this last day of September - I’m ready to share news that’s been in the works for almost a year!

On today’s episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I discuss how I used today’s (literal) SOS. I 1000% believe that Jim is always protecting me! And I (proudly) announce Griefhab’s fully accredited coaching certification program.

Three options to choose from - and the first group begins November 12th! Because this world needs peers supporting each other through the healing process!

Loss is loss and pain is pain. Somehow - you find yourself living life again, after being a zombie and going through the motions for what feels like eons!

Today’s guest on The Be Ruthless Show knows those feelings all too well! Linda Henderson lived it.

Linda is a retired nurse who has spent 37 years caring for others. Experiencing the tragic loss of her daughter, Linda became passionate about helping others navigate the journey of grief. Together with her career, Linda was determined to increase her knowledge of suffering.

Linda has certificates in Professional Grief and Development, Coping with Child Loss, and Bereavement Counseling. Her journey has shaped her and given Linda the determination to live life to the fullest.

Nine years into her grief, Linda decided to put her pain and suffering into words and wrote her book “The Road of Love & Hope”. Since publishing her book, her new purpose and vision is to share her story to provide inspiration, hope, and empowerment to people suffering from grief and other adversities of life.

Resting & Recovering after such an amazing Ruthless in the Rockies (stay tuned for 2025 dates - Shalini is still on her adventures!) 

It takes its toll - physically and emotionally. For Sassy, too!

On today’s episode of The Be Ruthless Show - I discuss why it’s so important to me to be true to myself. And that you be true to yourself! I discuss the importance of resting and recovering in a world that glamorizes pushing through and faking it until you make it. I discuss why I use my voice and my story as a way to have the conversations other people don’t.

I started this with a lot to say and no idea how to do it. Here we are 3 and a half years and 350 episodes later! Thank you for making it all possible.
On today's episode, news hits all too close to home. We hear about tragedies every day. This one took me right back to those feelings.

Did the Miami Dolphins react in outrage, as many of the fans and broadcasters did?

NOPE. 

They said something along the lines of  “We don’t know what happened yet. We’re going to make sure Tyreek’s ok emotionally and get everyone’s head in the game.”

The way we respond to the events in our lives impacts the outcomes. 

On today’s episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I discuss ways you can add to a problem, and ways you can avoid adding to a problem. 

Because either way - there’s always noise!
