In this moving episode of The Nancy Levin Show, I'm joined by my dear friend and extraordinary speaker, Darryll Stinson — a former Division I athlete, bestselling author, and two-time TEDx speaker whose transformational journey from trauma to truth is nothing short of breathtaking. Together, we explore the alchemy of vulnerability, the healing power of self-connection, and how Darryll has turned personal pain into powerful purpose. From surviving suicide attempts to becoming a voice for mental health and emotional authenticity, Darryll offers wisdom, compassion, and clarity for anyone ready to share their story, speak their truth, and embrace their wholeness. This conversation is a testament to the power of story, the necessity of self-care, and the liberation that comes when we stop hiding and start honoring all parts of ourselves. If you've ever wondered how to alchemize your lived and learned experience into a message that heals — this episode is for you.   ✨ What we explore: When we're in right relationship with ourselves, we become more free from external judgment. Visibility isn't about ego—it's about purpose. We must become fully expressed in order to fully serve. Vulnerability lives on a spectrum. It's not just about sharing trauma—it's about being open to your truth, power, and presence. Transformation begins in the mirror. Darryll shares how mirror work helped him move from self-hate to self-love. You don't need to wait for crisis to change. Your catalyst can be a conscious choice, not just a breakdown. The future belongs to fully-expressed, emotionally intelligent leaders. The next wave of speakers will embody deep self-awareness and divine availability. If this episode moved you, take a moment to pause and connect with your own story. What part of you is ready to be seen, heard, and healed?   Connect with Darryll: Website: www.darryllstinson.com Instagram: @stinsonspeaks LinkedIn: Darryll Stinson YouTube: @stinsonspeaks   Connect with me: Newsletter  nancylevin.com Instagram Facebook

Andrew discusses how his organisation serves 25,000 learners across seven colleges with a purpose-driven approach of "changing lives through learning." He reveals key leadership strategies including maintaining local college identities while leveraging shared resources, implementing employee engagement initiatives like wellness days and recognition programmes, and addressing the challenges of chronic underfunding in further education. Andrew emphasises the importance of holistic student support, building resilient leadership through self-care and boundaries, recruiting for attitude over skills, and perhaps most significantly, establishing "kindness as a superpower" as a core organisational value.

For people addicted to fentanyl, the desire to quit is often overshadowed by the fear of withdrawal. Incredible nerve pain, diarrhea, chills, vomiting. It’s been likened to the worst flu you’ve ever experienced. Buprenorphine, the medication often used to aid in easing addiction, can trigger withdrawal symptoms, making it tough for patients to continue treatment. Here in Seattle, Downtown Emergency Service Center, or DESC, has been trying a new method of administering buprenorphine to ease treatment and curb cravings -- and it’s showing some promising results. Guests: Jeremy Hoog, senior nurse manager at DESC's Opioid Recovery and Care Access. Carson Bell is a care navigator at DESC.

In this reunion episode, Ryan catches up with his old friend Sean Stockman (Midlife Stockman), who went from editing wedding videos to building a YouTube channel with over 600,000 subscribers by simply filming property transformations with his phone. Sean shares his journey from corporate America to full-time content creator and how his passion for serving others has created real-world impact beyond the screen. Key Takeaways You don't need fancy equipment to start creating content that resonates - Sean began with just his phone, a tripod, and free editing software  Consistency and authenticity matter more than polish - viewers respond to genuine passion, not perfect production  When you focus on serving others first (in Sean's case, by cleaning up properties and helping neighbors), growth often follows naturally  Building a community around shared values (like "working hard and loving your neighbor") can create impact far beyond what you initially imagined About Sean Stockman Sean Stockman, known online as Midlife Stockman, is a passionate YouTuber who shares his life experiences, community involvement, and personal insights with his growing online community. Through his YouTube channel, along with his active presence on Instagram and Facebook, Sean has built a space where viewers can connect, share their thoughts, and engage with someone who genuinely cares about addressing the needs and concerns of others. With a unique focus on community engagement, Sean's videos are a blend of personal stories and responses to the concerns of his viewers. Whether it's meeting with people to address issues or simply offering a moment of reflection, his content remains down-to-earth and impactful. Although Sean once ran marathons, he hasn't participated in one for about five years, yet his appreciation for his viewers and the support he's received through his work continues to drive him forward. Humble and grateful for the opportunity to connect with his audience, Sean is deeply thankful for the positive impact his community has had on him. In This Episode [00:00:00] Welcome to the show!

There's ways you can hone your editing and make your sound better, but if you really love what you do and really believe in what you do, it's going to come through and people will see that and respond." - Sean Stockman "People are not going to respond more if your camera is crisper or if your sound is better. What I have found in my experience is people are responding to seeing a genuineness about me... I'm not trying to be someone I'm not." - Sean Stockman "Show up as you.
