Fresh off Indiana's historic football National Championship, Moles is uniquely positioned to tell you what truly lies behind the “championship culture” you often hear discussed in the media.Embedded inside an athletic department, Moles occupies a rare hybrid role.

Send us a textEver been told to “suck it up” after a call that split your world in two? We challenge that script with a grounded, respectful look at how first responders can access care that actually helps. Steve sits down with licensed clinician and podcaster Susan Roggendorf for a candid, unfiltered conversation about culture, stigma, and practical support for police, fire, EMS, dispatch, ER, ICU, NICU, and corrections.We unpack why the tired question “What's the worst thing you've seen?” is not only unhelpful but harmful—and what clinicians should ask instead. Susan shares her background serving LGBTQ clients and first responders, detailing how role-specific stressors shape symptoms: from dispatchers carrying incomplete stories and auditory flashbacks, to EMS haunted by pediatric calls, to ER staff absorbing wave after wave of crisis without pause. Together, we outline a trauma-informed approach that centers consent, pacing, and control, building skills that fit real shifts: brief grounding, tactical breathing, movement that discharges stress, and cognitive resets you can use between calls.This episode also draws a clear map of the first responder circle without watering it down. We talk moral injury, hypervigilance, sleep disruption, and why peer support must be more than a checkbox. You'll hear podcasting war stories, yes, but also a deeper point: humility and repair are part of resilience, whether in a studio or on a scene. If you've ever sat through a therapy session that felt like a TV script, this is your reset. Expect real language, straight answers, and tools you can put to work immediately.To reach Susan, please go to https://psychhub.com/us/provider/susan-roggendorf/1316326036Support the showYouTube Channel For The Podcast

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!Today is a big one. Paige and I are celebrating 25 years together, and I'm recording this Mindset Monday in that headspace, reflective, grateful, and honestly a little stunned that we've lived so many lifetimes inside one relationship.We met at 14. I always knew we'd make it. I just didn't realize how non-linear the path would be, or how much of the turbulence would come from my addiction, my selfishness, and my immaturity. So in this episode, I look back at how we got here, what nearly broke us, and what actually rebuilt us.Then I use that perspective to answer the questions I get from men who are in the darkest part of it right now, the guys who feel like they're about to lose everything. We talk about the moment you stop digging, the fear of getting sober and feeling “boring,” cravings at night, learning patience when the relationship isn't healing on your timeline, and how to carry guilt without letting it crush you.If you're trying to earn back trust, rebuild your life, or become the man you keep saying you want to be, this one's for you.Find video clips and full length video from this episode on YouTube and our other social media pages!On the web:www.twfo.comSupport the Show:Buy Us a Coffee!

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Jill shares that, like the Titanic, which received multiple warnings to turn back, we can miss the warning signs people in our lives send. How can we help our 14-year-old granddaughter who has an autoimmune disease? She struggles with suicidal thoughts and is already seeing a counselor. My 12-year-old granddaughter disclosed that she was sexually abused by her brother and is engaging in self-harm. What steps should we take? How do I connect with my 18-year-old son who does well at school but isolates himself at home and emotionally shuts me out? I saw handwriting on the ceiling of my hotel room that said, “I love you,” but when I looked again, it was gone. Could that have been God?

In this episode of Energy Medicine, Dr. Mary sits down with Cynthia James, international coach, speaker, and expert in Emotional Integration Counseling, for a powerful conversation about healing that goes beyond insight and into the body.If you've ever felt like you understand your emotional patterns but still feel stuck, overwhelmed, or dysregulated, this episode is for you. Together, we explore how emotions live in the nervous system, why talk therapy alone often falls short, and how integrating the mind and body creates lasting emotional resilience.This conversation is grounded, practical, and deeply empowering—offering tools you can begin using right away to reduce stress, restore balance, and reconnect with yourself. In This Episode, We Discuss:-What Emotional Integration Counseling is and how it differs from traditional therapy-How unprocessed emotions are stored in the body and nervous system-Why safety and regulation are essential for emotional healing-The role of the mind-body connection in resolving stress and trauma-How emotional integration supports clarity, resilience, and inner wholeness-Practical ways to begin integrating emotions in daily life-Healing without re-traumatization or endlessly retelling old storiesConnect with Cynthia:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cynthiajames777/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cynthiajamestransformsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cynthia-james-~-international-coach-and-tedx-speaker-6105605/

Send us a textIf you're the one everyone turns to, you might be carrying more than you realize. We sit down with psychotherapist and mental wellness consultant Leah Marone to unpack the “serial fixer” habit—why it thrives in first responder culture and how it quietly fuels burnout, resentment, and frayed relationships. Leah works extensively with police, fire, EMS, and dispatch, and she brings sharp, compassionate insights you can use today without adding hours to your schedule.We break down the real difference between therapy and consulting, then rebuild the foundation of wellness with small, sustainable practices: bookending your mornings and nights, using micro resets during daily transitions, and reclaiming self-care as single-task presence instead of numbing or multitasking. Leah introduces a practical rule that changes conversations fast—support, don't solve—along with validation skills that help teammates, partners, and kids think more clearly and take ownership. You'll hear how the fixer impulse can become “compassion as control,” why quick advice often backfires, and how to replace that urge with grounded presence.Expect concrete tools and memorable metaphors. The internal “balloon” lets you notice pressure before it pops, and that shaken “soda bottle” reminds you to release slowly, not explode. We also cover sleep hygiene as the no‑nonsense cornerstone of recovery, data collection to challenge “dark cloud” thinking, and first responder-ready ways to downshift from high gear without losing your edge. If you want stronger boundaries, steadier energy, and deeper connection, this conversation will help you change your default settings.To reach Leah, here is the link to her work: https://linktr.ee/leahmaronelcswIf this resonates, tap follow, share it with a teammate who needs lighter armor, and leave a quick review so more first responders can find these tools.

After enduring several narcissistic, abusive relationships, I'm now enjoying being alone since my children are grown. Is this normal, or is it just a season of life? What can we do for our 6-year-old grandson who has lost family members? He talks about death several times a day and has even said he wants to die. 1

When pastors fall into sexual sin, adultery, or moral failure, the impact on churches, families, and individual believers can be devastating. In this episode of Redeeming Truth from Redeemer Bible Church, Pastor Jon Benzinger sits down with our pastors and biblical counselors to speak honestly about fallen pastors, pastoral disqualification, and how Christians can process betrayal while rebuilding trust in Christ—not in men. Drawing from real-life stories of hidden sin, long-term affairs, and leaders disqualified from ministry, this conversation addresses: Why sound theology—even Reformed doctrine—alone cannot keep a pastor from falling How discontentment, lust, pride, and heart-level idolatry fuel secret sin The ripple effects of pastoral failure on marriages, children, congregations, and communities Why pastors are "but men" who need accountability, prayer, and close fellowship How believers can grieve rightly while keeping their eyes fixed on Jesus You'll also hear: A sobering account of a large church shattered by a long-hidden affair Counseling insights on trust, trauma, disillusionment, and church discipline Biblical warnings from Luke 4:13; 1 Timothy 4:16; James 1; Romans 13, and more Why discontentment often becomes the gateway sin to adultery and moral failure Howard Hendricks' findings from thousands of fallen pastors—and what they all had stopped doing If you've been hurt by a fallen pastor, fear it could happen where you worship, or are a pastor who wants to finish well, this episode offers sober warning, biblical clarity, and gospel hope.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Chris discusses how our attempts to control situations can come across as judgmental, and he reminds us that Romans 2:1 serves as a warning. What does healing from spiritual and sexual abuse look like? I struggled with same-sex attraction and confided in a man I dated, who ultimately abused me. I was sexually abused by my father, and it’s like my mom blamed me. How can I navigate this difficult relationship with her? How can I help my 46-year-old daughter who feels hopeless and struggles with suicidal thoughts? My granddaughter isn't inviting certain family members to her wedding, which is hurting my cousin's feelings. How can I address this family conflict?

In this episode, Dr. Ray Blanchard explores the critical role of context and systems in practice, grounding the conversation in the person-in-environment perspective. Together, we move beyond pathologizing individuals to examine how relationships, environments, and larger systems shape functioning and behavior. Dr. Blanchard highlights the importance of collaboration, curiosity, and shared meaning-making, emphasizing a systems-oriented lens where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. This episode invites practitioners to rethink assessment and intervention through a more relational, contextual, and humane framework. Dr. Ray Blanchard earned his PhD in Counseling from Montclair State University, specializing in school mental health and LGBTQ issues. With over 10 years of bilingual clinical and supervisory experience, he has worked extensively with children and adolescents in NYC schools. Currently, he is an Assistant Professor and Clinical Coordinator in Molloy University's Clinical Mental Health Counseling Program. 

What if instead of hearing "mental health crisis" and defaulting to "more counseling" we also thought about sleep, nutrition, music, exercise, time outdoors, and time with friends? What if every student learned time management to make this possible? What can we do to make these opportunities and support services more accessible? We dive into this with Dr. Christopher Holstege, Senior Associate Vice President of Student Health & Wellness at the University of Virginia.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Becky discusses how our culture has become obsessed with certainty, but we must ensure that the need for certainty doesn't replace our dependence on God. My husband and I have been separated for six years due to his abuse, and he is now seeing someone else. What should I do? My firstborn daughter died from fentanyl five years ago, and I'm still in complete shock. How can I cope? My mom says she won't attend my daughter's Quinceañera if we play secular dance music. What's the best way to handle this? What should I do if my 35-year-old daughter struggles with serious mental health challenges and even threw a plate at me? How can I motivate my aging father? He doesn't shower, drinks alcohol, and rarely changes his clothes after my mother died 3 years ago.

I recently sat down with Kevin Dahill-Fuchel to explore what's really happening with teens' mental health today and why traditional models aren't enough. We discussed the crisis of isolation among adolescents, how schools can become centers of healing, and the critical importance of adults modeling healthy relationships. Kevin shares powerful insights about meeting kids where they are, making suicide a speakable word, and why staying present with our teens—even when they push us away—matters more than ever. If you're wondering how to support your teen's mental health while managing your own overwhelm, this conversation offers hope and practical wisdom. Kevin Dahill-Fuchel is the Executive Director of Counseling in Schools, a pioneering organization that embeds mental health professionals directly into New York City public schools. With over 30 years of experience, Kevin has led his organization through major collective traumas including 9/11, Superstorm Sandy, and COVID-19, evolving their model to provide comprehensive community-wide support that now serves over 6,700 students, nearly 2,000 families, and 1,400 school staff across 52 schools.

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!A listener posted a question in our free TWFO Facebook community that I've heard a hundred times in recovery spaces: “You have to separate the person from the addiction. That wasn't them.” And I get why people love that line. It reduces shame, makes forgiveness feel possible, and gives families hope.But for a lot of spouses and partners, something about it doesn't sit right… because they've seen the “good version” and the “destructive version” show up in the same human body, sometimes in the same day. So in this episode, I unpack the pros and cons of “separating the person from the addiction,” and why I think the truth is more nuanced, more uncomfortable, and more useful.We talk about influence vs choice, why guilt still exists if “it wasn't you,” how this narrative can accidentally silence the pain of the people who were harmed, and why sobriety alone is not the finish line. I'm not here to attack anyone's path or shame anybody who's used this framework to move forward. I'm here to hold compassion and truth at the same time, and offer a model of recovery that's built on agency, humility, and real repair.If you're in recovery, this is a gut-check. If you're a spouse or partner, this will validate why that phrase can feel like a mindf**k, and what a healthier, more honest version of healing can look like.If you'd like to read the essay from the episode, you can find it here on our website.Find video clips and full length video from this episode on YouTube and our other social media pages!On the web:www.twfo.comSupport the Show:Buy Us a Coffee!

In this episode, Dr. Daniel Binus and Amanda Anguish unpack fear—what it really is, why we feel it, and how to face it in healthy ways. They explore the brain's response to fear, fear conditioning, and practical tools like grounding, reframing, and gradual exposure therapy.

In this episode of the Man Therapy Podcast, hosts Dan and Kyle dive into a variety of topics, starting with their excitement for sports and the Super Bowl. They then transition into a deeper discussion about the concept of weaponization in relationships, exploring how individuals may manipulate emotions and situations to gain control. The conversation shifts to love languages, emphasizing the importance of understanding emotional needs in relationships. They conclude with practical advice on navigating these dynamics and the value of counseling for personal growth and relationship health. Takeaways The Super Bowl brings excitement and community together. Weaponizing emotions can lead to unhealthy relationship dynamics. Mental health issues should not be used as excuses for harmful behavior. Love languages can enhance relationships but can also be weaponized. Healthy communication is key to resolving conflicts in relationships. Setting boundaries is essential for personal well-being. Counseling can provide valuable insights and support for individuals and couples. Understanding your partner's needs is crucial for a successful relationship. Reciprocity in relationships fosters mutual respect and care. Personal growth often requires confronting uncomfortable truths. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Send us a textThe calls keep coming, but the solutions don't. We sit down with crisis clinician and EMDR therapist Morgan Yaskus to trace how a frayed safety net pushes first responders into impossible roles—and how that mismatch breeds moral injury. From long drives to the nearest DMV or ER to midnight discharges with no plan, we map the structural barriers that turn compassion into exhaustion and good intentions into public criticism.Morgan shares what mobile crisis teams can do well—resolving most calls on scene, staying with families after deaths, and offering a humane handoff—and where policy still ties everyone's hands. We talk about the revolving door of brief psychiatric evaluations, the bureaucratic maze of IDs and benefits, and the social media spotlight that amplifies one bad moment over a hundred quiet saves. Small towns feel this even harder: everyone knows everyone, scanners travel fast, and rumors outrun the facts.We also get practical. Morgan explains how EMDR intensives can speed recovery from single‑incident trauma, why embedded wellness trainings reduce stigma, and how family wellness programs give spouses and kids tools to navigate shift work, hypervigilance, and communication breakdowns. The theme isn't “do more with less.” It's “build a system that holds what responders are asked to carry,” with warm handoffs, guaranteed short holds, transport support, and streamlined ID recovery to break the cycle.If you care about first responder mental health, this conversation is a map and a motivator. Listen, share with your team, and send this to someone who thinks burnout is a willpower issue. Then tap follow, leave a quick review to help others find the show, and tell us: what single policy change would make the biggest difference where you live?To contact Morgan, go to her website at www.bewildandrooted.comFreed.ai: We'll Do Your SOAP Notes!Freed AI converts conversations into SOAP note.Use code Steve50 for $50 off the 1st month!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Henry Cloud shares the biggest lesson he's learned from decades as an acclaimed psychologist, author, and leadership expert. Am I making the right decision to leave my husband of six years? He is a pastor but refuses to share his finances or provide financial support. My husband of 36 years is a high-functioning alcoholic. I tried to leave, but it caused constant conflict—how do I stop letting him push my buttons? I'm in a friendship with a Christian man who kisses me on the lips, and we give each other massages, but I want a committed relationship. Should I go no contact and move on?
