Losing a Father to Addiction and Finding Purpose with Angie Nunez | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this episode of The Hopeaholics Podcast, guest Angie Nunez shares her deeply personal journey of loss, healing, and spiritual awakening. Born and raised in the Bronx to Dominican parents, Angie reflects on her upbringing, cultural roots, and the challenges of growing up in a tight-knit immigrant family. She opens up about losing her father to addiction after his long battle with opioids and cancer, revealing how his passing inspired her to create her own show, Sins of My Father, to honor his story and shed light on the struggles of addiction and generational pain. Angie speaks candidly about her grief and the process of finding strength through self-awareness, spirituality, and faith. She discusses how her spiritual journey helped her reconnect with her father's memory, embrace her shadow self, and release shame through forgiveness and understanding. The conversation also explores her marriage, motherhood, and her husband's transition from military life to rediscovering purpose through service and compassion with their project A Meal with Humanity, which brings food and dignity to the homeless in New Jersey. Through vulnerability and resilience, Angie's story embodies love, transformation, and the belief that even through loss, healing and light can emerge.#thehopeaholics  #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #Hope #wedorecover #treatmentcenter #natalieevamarieJoin our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Go to www.Wolfpak.com today and support our sponsors.

When Glenelys Jimenez became a new mom in early 2020, she started thinking about all the things she wished she’d learned sooner. As the oldest daughter of Dominican immigrants, she’d spent years teaching herself how to navigate student loans, taxes, workplace culture, and mortgages… not just for herself, but for her family and friends, too. When the world shut down, Glenelys decided to build what she wished had existed all along: a space for people to learn and rise together. That idea became Levanto Collective, a community filling in the life skills and support systems traditional education leaves out. Through workshops on financial wellness, mental health, reproductive health, and career growth, Levanto helps members “unlearn what doesn’t serve them and learn what will.” Today, I sit down with Glenelys to talk about building Levanto with her own savings, staying rooted in purpose, and how she’s evolved her original idea… from an app into a community built to help others rise. https://vialevanto.com/ https://www.instagram.com/levantocollective/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Monday of the 31st Week in Ordinary Time Optional Memorial of St. Martin de Porres, 1579-1639; son of a black or indiginous freed woman of Peru and a Spanish Grandee; his parents never married, and Martin bore the appearance of his mother; his father abandoned the family, and Martin grew up in poverty; he became a lay helper for the Dominicans, who eventually asked him to make full religious profession; many of his nights were spent in prayer and penitential practices; his days were filled with nursing the sick and caring for the poor; he was instrumental in founding an orphanage, took care of slaves brought from Africa, and managed the daily alms of the priory; many of his fellow religious took Martin as their spiritual director, but he continued to call himself a “poor slave”; he was a good friend of another Dominican saint of Peru, Rose of Lima Office of Readings and Morning Prayer for 11/3/25 Gospel: Luke 14:12-14

Bon, il y a un jeune français qui s'est fait arrêter à Saint-Domingue. Well, there's a young Frenchman who was arrested in Santo Domingo.Et la raison, c'est qu'il a essayé de passer une grosse quantité de cocaïne dans son corps.

The Dominican authorities, the DNCD, which is their anti-drug agency, believe he is part of the international trafficking linked to organized criminal networks.Ces réseaux recrutent des passeurs, des mules, comme on dit, ils leur offrent de l'argent pour voyager jusqu'à Saint-Domingue où on leur fournit la drogue et ensuite, hop, direction les États-Unis ou l'Europe. These networks recruit smugglers, "mules," as they are called, they offer them money to travel to Santo Domingo where they are supplied with the drug, and then, hop, off to the United States or Europe.Faut bien voir que la République Dominicaine, c'est vraiment une plaque tournante majeure pour la cocaïne. It must be noted that the Dominican Republic is truly a major hub for cocaine.Ce n'est pas nouveau hein.

In 1487 a scandal prone Dominican inquisitor published one of the most notorious witch-hunting manuals in history. The Malleus Maleficarum, or Hammer of the Witches, argued that Europe was under siege by witches and that these witches were almost exclusively female. The book was one of the first widely available texts that presented witchcraft as a uniquely female evil. By the end of 1500's women had become the main victims of the most outrageous witch-hunts, accounting for 85% of all people who executed as witches. Should the Malleus Maleficarum be blamed for this? Tune-in and find out how alewives, hot demons, and a "witch bull" all play a role in the story.Join us in Greece in 2026!

From growing up in a multicultural household to surviving a life-altering car accident, Nate's path through pain and recovery shaped the very core of his sound. In this candid conversation, he shares how moving from city to city, embracing his Italian, German, and Dominican roots, and witnessing his father's love for music all inspired him to create something deeply personal and powerful. Through hip-hop and storytelling, N@T transformed trauma into rhythm, finding peace and purpose through every beat.Connect with N@T: Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/natspatshatConnect with the Finding Arizona Podcast:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@findingarizonapodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/findingarizonapodcast/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/findingarizonapodcastWebsite: https://www.findingarizonapodcast.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/finding-arizona-podcast/Twitter / X: https://twitter.com/findingarizonaPRODUCTION: Ready to start your own podcast?

Honey sits down with Dariel Amant, the Dominican artist from Jersey who doesn’t just sing about love, he is LOVE. His name, meaning “lover” in French, feels like destiny fulfilled with every note. From the soulful vibes of “Flores” to the genre-blending magic of his Cuatro Rosas EP, Dariel is redefining what it means to be a bilingual romantic in today’s music scene. He’s taken Afro-beats, R&B, and Latin rhythms and made them his own, building bridges between cultures while capturing hearts across the globe. In this candid conversation, Dariel opens up about growing up in a Dominican household, the tragic work accident that became the turning point in his life, and how it inspired him to chase music full-time. He also shares what’s next from upcoming releases to how he plans to keep pushing his sound and his story forward.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a text by clicking this link!A calendar date can feel like a footnote—until you realize it's a battle cry. October 7 isn't just ink on the liturgical page; it's the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary, born from the battle of Lepanto, when a divided Europe found the courage to row into the wind. We sat down with historian and translator Ryan Grant to unpack how a six-year Dominican papacy, a “nobody” commander, and a sea full of galleys redirected history—and why the story still reads like a map for our moment.We start with Pope Pius V: a reformer forged by Trent who promulgated the Roman Missal, backed real clerical renewal with St Charles Borromeo, and refused to flatter power. Against a backdrop of French gamesmanship, Protestant pressure, and Spain's global overreach, he formed the Holy League and handed command to Don John of Austria, an illegitimate son with legitimate nerve. Ryan breaks down the fight the way it actually happened: tercios turning decks into battlefields, matchlocks hissing through smoke, Venetian galleasses doing less than legend says, and Ali Pasha betting the center at the wrong time. When El Sultana fell and the standard changed hands, morale cracked and the tide turned.But does Lepanto “matter” if the Ottomans rebuilt a fleet in six months? We tackle the revisionism head-on. Strategy and psychology shifted: no amphibious assault on Italy, no march on Rome, a Mediterranean suddenly contested. Bells rang in hostile lands, and the Church enshrined the memory as Our Lady of Victory—later Our Lady of the Rosary—cementing a devotion that would shape lay prayer for centuries. We explore the rosary's Dominican roots without forcing a neat origin story and get practical about devotion: pray on the commute, love Mary first, learn a saint well enough to ask for help often.Most of all, we take the human lesson home. Don John didn't wait for the perfect hierarchy; he went. If you're looking for permission to begin—prayer, study, service, leadership—consider this your signal. Learn the feast. Know the history. Pick up your beads and move.

How Haitians in the Dominican Republic are being targeted for expulsion. The Dominican Republic is the Caribbean's number one tourist destination. Last year 11 million visitors came here, many enjoying the five star resorts that skirt the island's coast.Much of the construction work building those tourist facilities is in fact done by Haitians, and many of the staff who work in them are from Haiti, which occupies the western half of this island of Hispaniola. Over recent years the tourism industry has helped make the Dominican economy the fastest growing in Latin America.However, the Dominican government is now implementing one of the most systematic deportation policies anywhere in the world. Last year the president, Luis Abinader, announced that his country would expel illegal migrants at the rate of ten thousand a week. The chief target is Haitians and people of Haitian descent. President Abinader says he is keeping his country secure and implementing the constitution. Meanwhile Haitians in the Dominican Republic are living in fear of raids by the immigration authorities and of being sent back across the border, to a country riven by violence as well as political and economic instability.John Murphy is in the Dominican Republic to talk to Haitians stuck between a rock and a hard place.This episode of The Documentary comes to you from Assignment, investigations and journeys into the heart of global events.
