At A Crossroads with The Naked Podcaster

Olivia and I have a candid conversation about growing up in a tough neighborhood, how important education is, having balance in relationships - especially when kids are in the mix and how you can't help everyone.  I'm SO excited that Olivia is able to help people outside of where she's licensed. Her book is now available via her website. It's an amazing book of information and worksheets for any couple ready to take a pre-marriage class. Simply outstanding! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/the-naked-podcaster/message

Will - also known as Jack Strider on his twitch account for gaming and video, shares with me his insights on depression and suicide, how the gaming community helped save him, how he pays it forward now and what made him completely switch gears on his degree path.

I was looking forward to this interview with two genuine, raw and lovely individuals. We talked about depression, suicide, bankruptcy, dysfunction in relationships and getting through that to create a beautiful, successful marriage. Brian and Carrie were so much fun to interview. They have so much information online but were willing to dig deeper with me about some tough subject matter. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/the-naked-podcaster/message

Ann-Marie and I discuss growing up in poverty, abuse, depression, anxiety, finding yourself and your true desires. I loved talking with Ann-Marie, located in Jamaica (and listening to her accent) as she described her life growing up, her health challenges, getting past wanting more love from her parents and getting past disappointment to live her true life. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/the-naked-podcaster/message

Susie and I have a candid conversation about floods, marriage, infidelity, divorce, raising kids and starting a business Susie and I met at a 3-day women's conference in 2011 in Kingston, WA. It was an amazing time - all women runners who got to share goals, run, do yoga, dancing, SUP workouts and try new products. Susie was there with RecoFit Compression and, with my ignorance about her product, a great friendship was born. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/the-naked-podcaster/message

Friendship, sexuality, moving on and laughing among many other things discussed will remind you how integral your own friendships are.

My goal is that it will provide a source of education and hope to the hopeless. Even if I can reach and assist only ONE single desperate soul crying out for help then my goal will not have been in vain. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/the-naked-podcaster/message

It was so much fun to visit with Ralph. Catching up with old friends is how I want everyone listening to feel! Ralph and I went to high school together and - although we haven't seen each other in 30 years, the bond is strong with this one. I admire Ralph's candidness about his weight, attitude, upbringing, weaknesses and how he finally maintained a healthy weight and a much happier life.

WOW! Is the best way I can sum up this podcast! Sean was amazing - raw and honest and empowering!   We discussed Sean's life, his battles and struggles and how he keeps going strong! Sean's personality is magnetic and his wisdom is invaluable. I loved how honest he was in answering all of my questions (especially through some technical difficulties!). Sean has an upbeat attitude and is funny as hell along with being smart and direct. He corrects me without hesitation and I appreciate his open attitude! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/the-naked-podcaster/message
