We thrive on the interaction and support of our loyal following.  Each week we take questions from the audience to get our guests perspective on difficult topics.  Often there are too many to air or that may not be topical to the discussion at hand.  On this episode we dive into some great questions from Social Media as we aptly title this The Suffering Of Social Media.  This is a great discussion with of course the occasional side-track stories and conversations that you can expect from two dented individuals.  This episode is informative, fun, and at times very serious.

Mike and I ask our guest week after week to bare their souls to us on air and it would be hypocritical to not do the same.  On this episode we welcome back Heather Julia Campbell who has a set of unique talents as a Psychic Medium and Reiki Master to extract trauma from Us to see if we truly are living by example.  This has been one of the most difficult episodes to record as we let out information that has never been publicly shared.  Heather hits on topics and information that there is no way that she could possibly know with the hope of unburdening our souls to live better lives.

We have come a long way since our critical incidents and talked to so many interesting and unique individuals.  Our opinions have changed, our perspectives have been broadened, and our hearts have been opened.  Its a daily struggle to fight the horrors of the trauma but with this podcast, our weekly group therapy session, we are able to work through our Suffering along with others to create a resilient community of stronger people who we believe are family.  This is a touching and heartfelt episode that will solidify our views and ongoing education in the world of Suffering.

THE CONCLUSION:  PART 2

Bobby Crudele is a very magnetic and energetic personality who happens to be one of the best Law Enforcement Officers in North Jersey.  Outwardly he appeared to be the life of the party.  On the inside, Bobby was fighting a battle that he was losing slowly, the fight with the bottle.  After chasing Alcohol down a very dangerous path, Bobby surrendered and asked for help, something that is very difficult for all Police to reach out for and admit.  Once Bobby got the help he needed, a new lease on life began to surface.  He's still the life of the party, but realizes that he doesn't need the alcohol to be the true person that he always was.

We have been waiting a long time to get my best friend in the studio.  On this Episode of The Suffering Podcast we are sitting down with my son Patrick Donaldson to discuss the Suffering of Kids.  As adults, we are very quick to forget some of the difficulties and struggles that young people go through.  They are growing up in world that we cannot fathom.  Patrick is a bright, smart, and driven kid who has a great outlook on life.  His discipline is second to none.  Our children look to us as their model for their future behavior, how can we give them valuable advice if we forget what the world looks like through their eyes.
