    We all have secrets; truths that are too painful to face. Marcie J. Keithley, Author of "The Shoebox Effect: Transforming Pain into Fortitude and Purpose," knows this all too well as she, herself, attempted to put all of her past worries into a proverbial, and literal, shoebox awaiting the time when she would have the strength to examine and process them. The reality, though, is that the only way to most forward in life with freedom is to face the past head on. Her book chronicles her journey of opening her "shoebox" and learning how to navigate loss, grief, divorce, death, adoption and all of life's adversities and transform them into fortitude and purpose. An accomplished professional, speaker, writer and emotional resilience coach, Marcie would be an amazing guest to have on your podcast as she is full of hope even in the face of challenge. She has made it her life mission to be open and honest with her personal story so that she can help others let go of the pain that they carry and move forward with purpose.Marcie Keithlyhttps://marciejkeithley.com/ @TheShoeBoxEffectPoem Referenced in Podcast:ChoicesBy Marcie J.

    Part 2 of 3: In the second episode of a three part series, in continuation of episode 20, we speak to Kevin Briggs the police officer in the Golden Gate Bridge Suicide story. Unique both their names are Kevin, but Briggs was the first person to give Kevin Berthia the man about to jump off the bridge a change in listening. Briggs listened for almost 90min while Berthia shared his entire life.  To now hear this story from Briggs side is amazing. Briggs shares some of the amazing powers of listening, but more importantly understanding a person's perspective. Many see something occur and judge on the present, but they dont take into consideration of their entire life. How someone's entire life leads up to specific events. By us understanding, or trying to understand someone without putting our own narrative in the way, is what truly listening means.  As Briggs says "Why do we have to get a stage 4 cancer of the bridge for someone to finally listen" Make it about them. Not us. It isn't a competition to listen. Don't make it into one. In this episode Briggs continues with amazing suggestions in how to listen, how to understand perspective. Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/ChooseYourAttitudePodcast)

His entire life buckled into this one moment. Heading to the Golden Gate Bridge, looking for just someone to ask him what he was doing, someone to listen, acknowledge... No one connecting, Kevin made it all the way to the bridge, walked to the middle, and climbed over. All he had to do was let go. All of a sudden Kevin was in control... Struggling, and about to jump Kevin heard a voice that saved his life. It was Kevin Briggs, a police officer. Briggs listened to Berthia for 90 mins unwinding his entire life to the first person in a long time to give Berthia a moment and listen. The power of perspective, the power to listen, saved Berthia's life. Today, Berthia has overtaken his challenges using inspirational speaking to help others get through their toughest battles, and share light for those scared to help someone in his situation.   In the podcast you will hear Bertha's amazing story.

His work has been on some of the largest stages, for example last year he finished up touring with Mariah Carey. But she's nowhere near as big as a influence to GMadison, then his wife, singer & songwriter Chenelle. Most recently they put together a beautiful, meaningful, and very inspiring piece of work, the music video for Chenelle's song INVINCIBLE. GMadison directed the video, and the video focuses on how society has grown accustomed to labeling people before anyone even understand someone's true perspective. Listens to their story. Understands how they would feel. We all have different journeys, that cause different events to become triggers. It could be anything from racial divide, to sexual harassment, and the list goes on. Everything has a different meaning to everyone else. If we stop. Listen.

    Life is a difficult journey. We all strive to live our best life. However life isn't always perfect. When we grow up, we sometimes fall into difficult choices. In high school, I had the privilege to go to school with a beautiful human being that has been through alot. Ashley Rhyner experienced her parents splitting, her father coming out as a gay man, her step dad passing of cancer. For a young girl, the process was extremely difficult, and in trying to find strength in such a difficult set of circumstances she fell into 10 years of hard drugs and alcohol. But Ashely is the exact example of why we must not look at these things and judge the people on them, but look deeper to help them from their pain, and judge them on the deeper heart. Ashley today is 3 years sober for such a difficult, complicated world, and she now is a mentor to many others going through the same struggles. It's all perspective. As we try and live, we have different vices to help us try and cope. But Ashley’s heart, attitude is beyond one of my biggest inspirations in life, and is a prime example of our pasts should not weigh us down, they should not be hidden, but held up and embraced as a way to build and grow to that journey we all call life.

    Have you heard of the term six degrees of separation? The idea is that all people are 6 people or fewer away from each other. Back in 2006 I was on a flight from Spokane Wa to Seattle Washington. Sitting next to me was a friendly lady. Like most flights, sharing your journey with the person next to you, she shared she was headed to her movie premier in Seattle. To my surprise, later the blockbuster hit Freedom Writers with lead actress Hilary Swank hit theatres. The movie is about a dedicated teacher (Hilary Swank) in a racially divided Los Angeles school with a class of at-risk teenagers deemed incapable of learning. Instead of giving up, she inspires her students to take an interest in their education and planning their future. She assigns reading material that relates to their lives and encourages them all to keep journals. Those journals not only formed a movie, but formed the Freedom Writers Foundation. Erin Gruwell, that dedicated teacher, was that amazing inspiring lady that sat next to me on that flight in 2006. Freedom Writers became a movie I adored. As Choose Your Attitude Podcast formed, and we reached out for guests, Erin Gruwell was at the top of the list. We reached out to Erin a week prior to the George Floyd protests. It was like fate set us up to connect, and discuss the current situation. Here's our chat...Message form Erin Gruwell:"I was humbled by Nicholas and Brianna’s tragic story of love and loss, so it was my honor to take part in the Choose Your Attitude Podcast.

    Hate is our defence mechanism, to help us retreat back to feeling safe and comfortable, because we may not understand something completely.Love takes work, trust, vulnerability, learning, the ability to step outside your comfort zone in order to grow and build. Love is the greater reward here.There is no easy way to build trust, without a extreme amount of empathy, compassion, and challenging yourself to learn others perspective, before you feel your own.We forget people who are asking for help, are asking because no one has yet to see their struggle and they themselves have exhausted all their own efforts to find safety. There is no right way to ask, but rather there is accepting the problem, and working towards a solution. We are often times too quick to judge people for how they ask for help, an unintentional act of putting yourself over others. When being asked for help, do the work and help. They are asking for help, not you.Put trust out there, put effort out there, we dont always know the answer, but thats ok. If we stop putting up our defence mechanism to retreat to safety and just listen, break down our own walls, and feel uncomfortable, the solution maybe easier then the resistance we cause.The power is within.
