Finding Life's Purpose
Where are you looking to find life? All our lives we are programed to expect life giving moments in our experiences, in our relationships, in our jobs, and the list keeps going on and on. But it doesn't work. At best, these life giving moments are just a flash, disappearing as quickly as they came. At worst, these moments disappoint and become more draining than fulfilling. Join us today as we learn to tap in to the only source of living water that satisfies so that we never know thirst again.

Finding Life, Hope, and Healing After Divorce with Jessica Kastner Have you ever wondered if your story is over because your marriage ended? Divorce can feel like a death—of dreams, identity, family, and future. But in this tender and hope-filled conversation, Leslie sits down with author and speaker Jessica Kastner to talk honestly about divorce, grief, shame, healing, and the beautiful truth that God is still writing your story. Jessica shares vulnerably from her own journey through divorce, including the pain of rejection, the temptation to rush into another relationship, and the slow, sacred work of learning that God alone is enough. Together, Leslie and Jessica offer compassion, clarity, and biblical hope for women who feel broken, disqualified, or afraid that life will never feel whole again. Key Takeaways Divorce Is Not Your Identity Jessica reminds women that divorce may be part of your story, but it is not who you are. Your worth is not determined by whether someone chose you, stayed with you, or left you. God created you with purpose, dignity, and calling—and divorce does not cancel that. Grieving Is Necessary Before Rebuilding Too often, women try to numb the pain of divorce through dating, busyness, or distraction. Jessica honestly shares how rushing into relationships after her first divorce kept her from grieving and healing. Her encouragement is clear: give yourself time, sit with God in the pain, and allow Him to become your refuge. You Don't Need a Man to Be Whole Leslie and Jessica talk about the difference between wanting companionship and needing a relationship in order to be okay. When another person becomes necessary for your worth, security, or identity, they take a place only God can fill. Healing helps you come into any future relationship as a whole adult—not someone looking to be completed. Co-Parenting Requires Grace, Boundaries, and Maturity Divorce creates painful complications, especially when children are involved. Jessica encourages women to focus on the children's well-being rather than getting caught in power struggles with an ex-spouse. Leslie adds the importance of keeping your side of the street clean through wise boundaries, limited contact when needed, and calm, clear communication. Your Story Is Not Over Whether you remarry someday or remain single, your life still matters. Leslie and Jessica challenge the lie that your “best years” are behind you. With God, you can continue to grow, heal, serve, and become a stronger, wiser, more grounded version of yourself. Personal Invitation Feeling overwhelmed and unsure where to start? Get the Quickstart Guide and take your next step toward clarity, courage, and healing. Download the Quickstart Guide here: https://leslievernick.com/guide Friend, divorce may feel like the end of everything familiar, but it is not the end of you. God is not surprised by your pain, your questions, or your future. He is near to the brokenhearted, faithful in the wilderness, and able to bring beauty from ashes. You are not disqualified. You are not forgotten. And with God's help, you can grieve, heal, grow, and step into the next chapter of your life with courage and hope.
Oprah continues her extraordinary interview with wrongly convicted death row inmate Anthony Ray Hinton, who shares a remarkable story about an unlikely friendship he formed in prison. He explains how he eventually found his way to freedom through the help of civil rights attorney Bryan Stevenson and the Equal Justice Initiative. Anthony describes how he felt on the day he was finally released, in 2015, and how he adjusted to life outside prison. He also shares the powerful lessons he learned on death row: the true meaning of compassion, the root of racism and how we can all overcome our circumstances and learn how to love. Anthony's memoir, "The Sun Does Shine," is the latest selection for Oprah's Book Club. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Sr Therese Mills MGL explores the grief and confusion felt when God doesn't answer prayers the way we hope. Although God's ways can seem mysterious, Jesus' compassionate presence remains with us in our grief and can transform suffering into a source of grace
What if your most disciplined efforts still can't touch the root of your struggle? We open Colossians 3 and confront two convincing counterfeits: the treadmill of strict rule keeping and the treadmill of frantic escape. Both have an appearance of wisdom. Neither can kill sin. The gospel offers a better way—run to Christ, not away from failure or toward performance.We walk through Paul's freeing order: you have died with Christ, your life is hidden with Christ in God, and you will appear with him in glory. That sequence reshapes how we fight sin, moving us from white-knuckle “stop that” to worshipful “seek this.” From there we face the hard list—sexual immorality, impurity, evil desire, covetousness—and the everyday poisons of anger, malice, slander, obscene talk, and lying. Rather than tolerating a “manageable” level, we learn what it means to put sin to death and to put on the new self that is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its Creator.You'll hear a practical, two-minute framework to retrain your thoughts using Philippians 4:8: name the dominant thought, test it through true-honorable-just-pure-lovely-commendable-excellent-praiseworthy, replace it with Scripture, and take one concrete step of obedience. We apply it to jealousy, anxiety, and lust—with Scripture-shaped sentences and next steps that shift your focus from running from sin to running toward Christ. Along the way, we celebrate the unity of the body where labels fade and “Christ is all and in all,” and we anchor the whole journey in communion, where we receive what we cannot produce: forgiveness, power, and presence.

On this episode of The MisFitNation, host Rich LaMonica welcomes US Army veteran, author, and independent publisher Ken Dupar for a raw, funny, and deeply human conversation about survival, service, creativity, and meaning. Raised in Milwaukee and shaped by the University of Wisconsin before joining the U.S. Army, Ken found belonging, structure, and purpose in uniform. After the post–Persian Gulf War downsizing, life didn't follow a clean exit plan. What followed was a winding civilian path, multiple deployments, leadership under pressure, and a series of life-altering moments—including heart failure during his time as a company commander. Writing became therapy. Humor became survival. And storytelling became the way Ken processed pain, loneliness, love, suffering, and resilience. Today, as an independent author and publisher living in East Tennessee, Ken continues pushing the creative boulder uphill—not because it's easy, but because it's worth it. This episode explores military transition, identity loss, creative rebirth, leadership, suffering, and what it really means to keep running the race at 57.

Ben Ennis and Sho Alli kick off Thursday morning breaking down the Maple Leafs' overtime loss to the Detroit Red Wings. The guys chat about the mounting pressure created by Toronto's slow start, and the importance of the remaining home stretch before the Olympic break. They also touch on Easton Cowan's overtime turnover, whether Joseph Woll rebuilt some trust with his strong performance, and how significant a potential extended absence for Oliver Ekman-Larsson would be, especially with Friday's game looming large. After the break, Ben and Sho turn to the Raptors' dominant 122-109 win in Sacramento. They examine the team's shooting performance, the effectiveness and sustainability of the Jamal Shead and Immanuel Quickley double point guard lineup, and Sandro Mamukelashvili's role during this stretch. They also preview the upcoming Blazers matchup and what would define a successful road trip, before wrapping up with a look at Buffalo and the situation surrounding Keon Coleman.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

In this episode of The Observatory Podcast, hosts Scott and LaRae Wright sit down with Bobby Ahlander for an expansive and deeply human conversation about suffering, healing, and what it means to truly come home to yourself. Bobby shares his journey growing up in a rigid religious environment marked by instability and fear, living much of his adult life on “autopilot,” and eventually reaching a breaking point that included leaving the Church, divorce, job loss, and a prolonged season of depression with suicidal ideation.Through therapy, psychiatry, EMDR, Buddhist study, and eventually plant medicine, Bobby describes the slow and nonlinear rebuilding of his inner world. He introduces a personal “numbers” framework that helped him track emotional states — from survival, to “fine,” to happiness, joy, bliss, and ultimately a state he later names cosmic union. At the heart of this conversation is the embodied realization that arrived not through force or fixing, but through surrender: peace feels good.Timestamps [01:10] Introducing Bobby Ahlander and the theme “peace feels good”[04:05] Childhood in a conservative religious home marked by instability[08:45] Learning invisibility, safety, and survival as a child[14:55] Living adulthood on “autopilot” and inherited identity scripts[20:15] Becoming a bishop and the weight of enforcing institutional rules[25:35] LGBTQ+ policy conflict and values colliding with authority[31:50] Leaving the Church, divorce, and relocation all at once[36:40] Wiping the slate clean and questioning every belief[41:05] First acts of autonomy and reclaiming personal choice[46:00] Discovering Buddhism and non-dual thinking[51:40] First psilocybin experience and expanded awareness[58:45] COVID, job loss, unhealthy relationship, and emotional collapse[01:05:40] Suicidal ideation and surviving for his children[01:12:30] Therapy, medication, and the “numbers” emotional scale[01:20:10] Ayahuasca: opening a door that never closes[01:27:30] Integration, healing, and learning to live at “fine”[01:33:40] Oregon coast turning point and happiness returning[01:38:10] Discovering joy, bliss, and something beyond the scale[01:41:00] Embodied peace, “peace feels good,” and what comes next[01:41:58] Closing message and listener invitationNotable Quotes“You have just opened a door that can never close again.” — Scott Webb (quoted by Bobby Ahlander) [00:36:08]“I don't want to die, but I don't want to be alive.” — Bobby Ahlander [00:31:58]“The whole choice to awake puts you on a path.” — Scott Wright [01:13:33]“So we honor you for being there and being able to express that.” — LaRae Wright [01:29:42]“The cost of the new is the old.” — Scott Wright [01:32:36]“Turbulence is just a reminder you're flying.” — Bobby Ahlander [01:34:42]“You will continue to suffer until you've learned the lesson that the suffering is trying to teach you.” — Bobby Ahlander [01:38:18]“This is peace.” — Bobby Ahlander [01:23:57]“Peace feels good.” — Bobby Ahlander [01:25:01]Relevant LinksBobby's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bobbyahlander/Subscribe to the podcast: Apple Podcasts

Sunday morning sermon by Tim Alsup. This morning we complete our "Adventures in Bible Reading" series, reminding us of Scripture's life-changing power. Our study today comes from Acts 8, in which God brings a Christian together with someone reading his Bible, and we again see the life-and-soul-changing power of God's word. What happened, and what do we learn about our own decision to receive God's salvation?

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today's episode, host Hunter guides us through a rich journey in the Scriptures, reading from Isaiah chapters 53 to 56 and 2 Peter chapter 2. We begin with some of the Bible's most powerful passages about the suffering servant and God's deep, unfailing love—a love that invites us to come with open ears and hearts, no matter our hunger or thirst. Hunter reflects on how God's word brings life, hope, and restoration, reassuring us that no one is beyond God's generous forgiveness. Together, we also explore warnings about false teachers, and the call to live justly and faithfully. The episode is woven with heartfelt prayers, reminders of God's faithfulness, and a deep sense of community as Hunter thanks the listener supporters who make this podcast possible. Whether you're joining for the first time or have been walking this daily journey for years, today's episode is an invitation to listen, find life, and remember that you are deeply loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Come with your ears wide open. Are you thirsty? Are you hungry? Then come to God. Don't come in ignorance, or with a sense of doom, fearing what you'll hear him say. Instead, come with your ears wide open, because what you'll hear are God's words of love—a love that will never fail. In Isaiah 55:3 we hear this invitation: “Come to me with your ears wide open. Listen, and you will find life. I will make an everlasting covenant with you. I will give you all the unfailing love I promised to David.” See how rich and generous the gifts of God are for the hungry and thirsty, for the broken. It's beyond what we can imagine. We so often close our ears to God, because we fear. We fear his words of judgment, of rejection. But the prophet says otherwise. Open your ears wide—because what you'll hear is a generous forgiveness, a mercy that far exceeds our highest hopes. Isaiah continues: “Yes, turn to our God, for he will forgive generously. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.” His thoughts about you—his plans for you—are greater and richer and better than you could ever dream. It is his word, this generous food for the hungry, that opens our eyes and minds to his heart and his ways. Isaiah 55:11 says, “It is the same with my word. I send it out and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it.” All of this is an everlasting sign of his power and his love. So look up, thirsty one, and see what God has done. He has sent the final word—his Son. Open your ears wide and hear God's answer to your thirst, your hunger, your brokenness: it's Jesus, the living Word. So come with your ears wide open. Listen—and you will find life. That's the prayer that I have for my own heart, for my own soul. That's the prayer I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting Father, you have brought us in safety to this new day. Preserve us with your mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. Dear Lord, you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed Son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you and find you, bring the nations into your fold. Pour out your spirit on all flesh and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, joy. O Lord, grant that I might not seek so much to be consoled as to console, to be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned. It is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen. Almighty God, father of all mercies, we, your grateful children, give you humble thanks for all your goodness and loving kindness to us and all you have made. We bless you for your creation, preservation and all the blessings of this life. And above all, for your immeasurable love and your redemption of the world through our Lord Jesus Christ. For the means of grace and the hope of glory, Lord, we pray, give us such awareness of your mercies that with truly thankful hearts we may show forth your praise, not only with our lips, but with our lives, by the giving up of ourselves for your service in holiness and righteousness all our days. Through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom with you and the Holy Spirit be all honor and glory through all ages. Amen.

Set almost three decades after the release of the rage virus, 28 Years Later imagines a Europe that has been forced to adapt in order to survive their ruthlessly enforced quarantine. Enclosing themselves in isolated communities, one such group of survivors have made a new life for themselves on a small island that's connected to the mainland only by a single causeway. As his son Spike turns 12, Jamie (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) believes it's time for his boy to learn how to hunt the infected and he decides to take him to the interior. However, although their experience goes awry, Spike believes that there's hope deeper into the forest and he sets out with his mother on a mission to get the help they need.

Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today's episode, Host Hunter guides us through a powerful journey in scripture as we read Amos 7–9, Psalm 104, and Titus 2. Together, we reflect on the visions and warnings delivered through the prophet Amos, the majesty and care of God captured in the psalms, and Paul's wise instructions to Titus for living a life that reflects God's grace. Hunter shares a heartfelt meditation on the true famine in our lives—a hunger not for food, but for the Word of God—and invites us to come daily to the table to be nourished by the Living Word, Jesus. We close with prayers for peace, unity, and God's restorative presence in our world and our lives. Whether you're new or returning, join us as we feast on scripture, prayer, and encouragement—reminded once again that you are deeply loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: There's a famine in the land, but it's not for food. The people may have all the food they need, but they're starving for something far more essential to life: the Word of God. People fill their lives with every imaginable thing, feasting on distractions and pleasures that, in the end, leave them empty and hungry. If we make this life about satisfying our earthly appetites, we end up famished, unsatisfied at the very core. Jesus put it this way: People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God. Christ is that bread of life. Our souls will never truly be satisfied until they are satisfied in him, the Living Word. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. The prophet Isaiah asks, “Why spend your money on food that does not give you strength? Why pay for food that does you no good? Listen to me and you will eat what is good. You will enjoy the finest food.” God is calling us—listen and eat what is good. Enjoy the finest of food. Stop starving your soul. He has graciously placed a feast before us, a meal we have done nothing to earn and nothing to pay. He simply asks that we come, that we eat. Are you restless? Tired? Hungry? Famished? There's no need to go hungry today. The Living Word is here for you. His Word is gracious toward you. It is the Bread of Life, and it's free of charge. It is Him—his presence, his peace, grace, forgiveness, mercy, and love. At his table, every hunger is satisfied, every thirst is quenched. Come daily to the table and feast on his goodness. Draw strength, draw joy, draw all that you need from him. That's the prayer I have for my own soul. That's the prayer I have for my family—for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord of heaven and earth, you have awakened us in your mercy once more. Still our anxious minds, quiet our striving hearts and help us to rest in the knowledge that we are held by you. May we walk in step with your spirit today—not ahead, not behind, but beside you in trust and love through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. O God of all peoples, you formed every soul in your image and breathed life into every heart. Open the eyes of the nations, soften hearts grown cold, and teach us to live as neighbors and friends. Let your spirit move in power, renew the face of the earth and usher in your reign of peace. Amen. And now, Lord, let me be a bearer of your peace. Where voices divide, let me speak grace. Where fear takes root, let me plant trust. Where the world rushes on, let me walk with you. May I seek not to climb, but to kneel; not to win, but to love; not to grasp, but to give. For it is in emptying that we are filled, in surrender that we are strengthened, and in union with you that we find our truest joy. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen. OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.

Gresham Harkless begins by referencing Ecclesiastes 3:1-8, which speaks about different seasons in life—times of joy, struggle, growth, and loss. He highlights the challenge of accepting that not every moment is about success or reaping rewards; sometimes, life requires patience and perseverance through tough times. Gresham recognizes that it can feel like something is wrong when facing difficulties, but it's often just part of the cycle of life. Gresham shares his story about a missed call with a potential candidate, a situation that reinforced his understanding of reliability in sales and consulting. He also mentions how the unexpected people sometimes succeed, while the ones he is rooting for may not. Gresham reflects on how this past year has been one of the most challenging for him. He identifies that life comes in seasons of highs and lows, and understanding these patterns can help provide context and resilience. Gresham writes motivational reminders on his bathroom mirror, and this week's message was: "It's okay when things aren't going the way you want them to go." Furthermore, Gresham advocates to recognize their emotional seasons to avoid making impulsive decisions out of frustration or doubt.

Big birds with bitty brains are still kind of brightWe've learned a lot about the remarkable intelligence of birds like crows and parrots, but not much work has been done on large flightless birds. A new study that explored the problem-solving abilities of emus, ostriches and rheas suggests that some of these birdy behemoths have impressive cognition too. In a first-of-its-kind study, a team led by University of Bristol's Fay Clark trained the birds to use puzzles to get food, and they found that the rheas and emus were able to solve the puzzle easily, though the ostriches did not. The research was published in the journal Scientific Reports.Cows jump over the moon — maybe humans should tooResearchers have done a lot of work to try and understand how astronauts can best prepare for and compensate for the muscle and bone atrophy that they will experience after long periods in zero G. A new study, led by Marco Chiaberge at Johns Hopkins University, suggests that a workout that includes jumping might be beneficial. The researchers found that by training mice to repeatedly jump up from one level to another increased their knee cartilage thickness by 26 per cent. The research was published in the journal npj Microgravity.Mary had a little lamb – 11,000 years agoSheep are among the animals that humans domesticated first, in the middle east during the dawn of agriculture. A new genetic study of hundreds of ancient sheep remains, which date across 12 millennia, is shedding light on the intertwined history of sheep and humans. The work, led by geneticist Dan Bradley of Trinity College Dublin, tells the story of how the sheep's domestication not only gave us clothes but also milk and meat which fueled our spread around the world for thousands of years, and how humans molded sheep by selecting them for colour and wool. The research was published in the journal Science.A tiny great ape lived in Europe 12 million years agoThe tiniest member of the great ape family — the group that today includes the chimpanzees, orangutans, bonobos, gorillas, and us — has been identified from fossils found in Germany. Nearly 12 million years ago, the 10-kilogram animal would have shared its environment with another, larger great ape species, something researchers didn't think was possible. David Begun, a paleoanthropologist at the University of Toronto, said its two fossilized teeth and a single knee bone indicated that Buronius manfredschmidi had its own ecological niche high up in the trees. The study was published in the journal PLOS One. The recipe for finding life on other planetsIn the last two decades we've discovered literally thousands of planets orbiting nearby stars. And our technology has advanced to the point where we're on the cusp of being able to investigate whether there's life on those planets. We speak to astrophysicist Lisa Kaltenegger, the founder of Cornell University's Carl Sagan Institute, about her work trying to answer that question, and her book Alien Earths: Planet Hunting in the Cosmos.

In the Trenches: The Journey of Robert Gallery from College Star to NFL Standout Join Marcus and Melanie as they welcome Robert Gallery, former NFL offensive lineman, College Football Hall of Famer, and one of the most celebrated athletes to come out of the University of Iowa. Robert's football journey is nothing short of extraordinary. Starting as a tight end at Iowa, he transitioned to offensive tackle, paving the way for a stellar collegiate career. A two-time First-Team All-Big Ten selection, Robert was named Big Ten Offensive Lineman of the Year in 2003 and capped off his senior year with unanimous All-American honors and the prestigious Outland Trophy. His excellence extended off the field, earning him three Academic All-Big Ten awards. In recognition of his remarkable contributions to the sport, Robert has been honored with multiple accolades: College Football Hall of Fame: Inducted in 2023 at the 65th NFF Annual Awards Dinner. University of Iowa Athletics Hall of Fame: Inducted in 2017. Kinnick Wall of Honor: Added to Iowa's America Needs Farmers Wall of Honor in 2015. Drafted second overall by the Oakland Raiders in the 2004 NFL Draft, Robert embarked on an eight-season career in the NFL, playing for the Raiders and Seattle Seahawks. Over 104 games, he showcased his grit and leadership, earning the Ed Block Courage Award in 2010 and cementing his place as a force on the offensive line. In this episode, Robert reflects on his incredible football career, the transformation of Iowa's football program, and his experiences in the NFL. But the conversation goes deeper, exploring his journey after football and the life-changing healing he found through ibogaine. For both Marcus and Robert, ibogaine offered a second chance—a path to healing they're now sharing to inspire and support others who may feel lost or stuck. These raw, personal stories are a testament to resilience and the universal power of hope. Tune in for an inspiring episode filled with life lessons, healing journeys, and a reminder that no matter the challenge, transformation is always possible. In This Episode You Will Hear: • My parents were very much like: “You do sports, or you work on the farm.” (9:55) • Once my siblings started earning scholarships, and I saw what it did for them, I was like “I wanna do that.” (11:17) • [The coaching staff] were just guys that wanted to get the best out of you. They were there to make you better. (14:25) • [Melanie] Q: What do you think builds a great team? A: I think it's the people and the culture. (15:55) • It's that Midwest mentality. Work ethic, no show boating. It's about being the best you can be, doing it the right way, and being good people. (17:02) • I knew I needed my buddies next to me on the offensive line. For me to be great, I needed them to be great. (17:57) • I kept working and working. And by the end of my college career, I was the best there was in the country. (25:34) • Continue to work at wat you do to be a better all-around athlete. (25:39) • I love how I was raised. My parents still married after 50 years. (26:57) • I never had a sporting event that I ever remember from as young as I was in grade school, that one of my parents was not there. (38:25) • I worked so hard and sweated so much that you gotta go to the bathroom. One day I had to go to the bathroom real bad and the game was about to start. The only thing I could do was sit here and go. Go in your pants. I did it every game after that. (49:48) • I got to where now I'm taking pain killers to get to practice. Now I'm asking my linemen what do we do? I'm dizzy. I'm not myself. (55:23) • As time went on, things started to spiral: alcohol abuse. (63:08) • I got a brain scan. That's when they put up a picture of a healthy brain against a picture of my brain. It was shocking. (65:31) • I started a journey of doing everything I could in modern medicine. (69:06) • I took the invitation to take an Ibogaine treatment. (74:48) • The treatment saved my life. I can out of it a different person.
