MY BLUEPRINT: Struggle Towards Emotional Sobriety

Health EN ↓ 357 episodes

All my podcast will be short-never more than 15 minutes. I will be talking about my own personal experiences on topics such as depression, anxiety, spirituality, emotional sobriety, parenting, and marriage to name a few. I think that the only thing that is truly unique to me is my personal journey and my personal story. My vision is that as you listen to my experiences and struggles, you will find value for yourself.

#110 Cog Hill Course No. 4-Dubsdread 01.05.2019 14:12

Why was Course No. 4 given the nickname "DUBSDREAD." The nickname "DUBSDREAD" is derived from the idea that a "dub" or poor golfer should beware and served as a warning of the challenges forthcoming.

#108 11th Hole at Fox Bend Golf Course 25.04.2019 7:16

Golf to me is like a metaphor for life. The way I approach golf is very similar to the way I live my life.

#107 How Can I Attend Alcoholics Anonymous? 17.04.2019 9:43

I struggled to publish this episode. Everyday I realize how much of a perfectionist I really am. As I re-listened to this episode, I heard myself mispronounce words, stutter, and had a variety of other judgments about myself (all of which I have a pretty good hunch you will not even notice). In this episode I talk about how I get value out of attending A.A. meetings even though I am not an alco...

#98 Footprints 23.01.2019 12:02

How unique am I? While I often think I am very unique and different, the reality is, I am usually walking in the footprints of others. I butchered my favorite scene from Good Will Hunting in this podcast, but here it is Good Will Hunting "My Boy's Wicked Smart"

#91 My Eulogy 18.12.2018 9:07

Many of my podcast that I created were not easy to record. Also, I thought long and hard if I should share them. This podcast was one of my toughest to record, and I was not sure if I should publish it. Well, here it is.

#87 Ed Smyth-Part II 05.12.2018 28:01

This is a continuation of podcast #39 Meet My Friend Ed Smyth. I was thinking about doing some volunteer work with some seniors and I forgot about this piece I wrote several years ago.

#86 Judaism and Christianity 03.12.2018 6:42

I don't talk a lot about religion or politics on my podcasts, but after reading a certain passage in the book Jewish Literacy by Rabbi Joseph Telushkin, I thought I would share a point of view I have on this topic.

#85 A Painful Spiritual Experience 30.11.2018 11:48

I a few days ago I had a painful but insightful spiritual experience that I want to share. In this podcast I talk about two books I recently read by Bob Goff. I also share about a friend of mine who is a Myofascial Release Therapist (which is a specific type of body work).
