#232 - You think you know someone, then you hear what they had to survive. Calvin Bagley looks like the guy with the steady career and the good family, but as a kid he was literally taught to hide when the school bus came by so no one would discover he wasn't being educated at all.We talk through Calvin's childhood in rural Utah with isolation, fear, and extremist beliefs that kept the world at a distance, plus the strange whiplash of showing up to church on Sundays and then returning to what he describes as hell at home. Instead of walking away from spirituality, Calvin explains how faith became his lifeline, and how his view of God slowly shifted from fear and anger to love, stability, and hope.Then we trace the hard, practical path of adult education: learning to read with help from his sister, serving a mission in Brazil where learning Portuguese forced him to finally learn English structure, grinding for a GED, bombing the ACT, and getting into UNLV through an unconventional “non-admitted student” route. We also get into his years as a flight attendant, the impact of 9/11, the mentors who opened doors, and why he finally chose to tell the truth in his memoir, Hiding from the School Bus, including the boundaries and therapy that helped him stop living in hiding.If Calvin's story hits you, share it with someone who needs proof that healing and growth are possible, then subscribe and leave a review so more listeners can find Th Human Adventure.To learn more about Calvin and to get a copy of his book check out www.hidingfromtheschoolbus.com.

Content Warning & Disclaimer Please proceed with caution. This episode may be highly triggering for survivors of abuse and trauma. Listener discretion is strongly advised. Tricia Gray grew up as one of four children in Louisiana, raised by a single mother who was trapped in a cycle of abusive relationships. At just five years old, Tricia became her mother's protector, shielding her through years of violence until into her late teens. Then tragedy struck: her mother was murdered in their own front yard by one of her abusers. Left to save herself, Tricia faced unimaginable pain and adversity. Yet from those darkest days, she forged an extraordinary path of resilience, mental strength, and spiritual growth. Her story is a powerful testament to human endurance and the ability to rise above trauma. In July 2026, Tricia Gray will release her highly anticipated memoir, "The Lotus Legacy". The book details her journey from childhood protector to empowered survivor, sharing the mindset, strategies, and inner work that helped her rebuild her life. In an exclusive interview, Tricia opens up about how she approached life's challenges and the deeply personal process of writing "The Lotus Legacy." Her story resonates with anyone seeking inspiration to overcome hardship, break generational cycles, and create a meaningful legacy. If Tricia could transform such profound trauma into strength and purpose with so few advantages, it challenges the rest of us to examine our own excuses. Her memoir isn't just a survival story — it's a blueprint for anyone ready to stop waiting for perfect conditions and start building a better life. Tricia's website is TriciaNGray.com. Keywords & Themes: childhood trauma survivor, overcoming domestic abuse, single parent family struggles, Louisiana true story, healing from childhood trauma, women's empowerment memoir, resilience stories 2026.

Film Festival Tickets: https://buytickets.at/thedopeyfoundation/2216905 Patreon: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast This week on Dopey! Lots of stuff in this one: my ridiculous dog emergency room experience plus three tick bites in one day!Then we get into listener love — a great email from Sean O about early recovery and live music, Taylor's wild meth/booze/Grinder voicemail, and Minnesota Matt's heavy story about losing friends to heroin overdoses. Then we get into a much different kind of Dopey with activist and person in recovery, Haneef Perry. Haneef grew up in Palmer Park, Maryland, during the crack era. He started smoking PCP (“Love Boat”) at 12, sold crack as a teenager, lost his best friend Earl to street violence, started carrying guns, and at 18 got caught up in a shooting that resulted in a first-degree murder conviction and a life + 15 year sentence. In prison he taught himself to read, converted to Islam, became a leader trying to stop the violence, and after 20 brutal years had his conviction overturned. Now he's out, married, working in peer recovery, and deeply involved in community work in Baltimore. This one is raw, spiritual, full of systemic reality, trauma, and real redemption. Serious, heavy Dopey business. All that and much much more on a totally brand new episode of that good old Dopey Show! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What does it take to go beyond what's prescribed, to follow a calling, and to tell a story that simply won't let you go? In this episode, Stacy LeBaron speaks with Melinda Grohol, a longtime freelance writer whose passion for people and animals led her to write the official biography of Dr. Jeff Young — the beloved veterinarian known to millions as Dr. Jeff: Rocky Mountain Vet on Animal Planet. Melinda's connection to spay/neuter runs deep. Growing up in a time when pet reproduction was simply left to nature, she witnessed firsthand the consequences of unchecked overpopulation. That early awareness, deepened by friendships with shelter workers and encounters with advocates like Esther Mechler and Dr. Jeff himself, solidified her belief that spay/neuter is the most powerful tool available for preventing animal suffering. The book, Beyond the Boundaries: The Life and Times of Dr. Jeff, the Rocky Mountain Vet, traces Dr. Jeff's remarkable journey — from his pivotal early decision never to euthanize healthy animals, to his work training veterinarians both in the U.S. and around the world, to the personal challenges that have shaped his life and career. Melinda shares the stories that moved her most, including the chapter featuring letters from former students Dr. Jeff trained, the forward written by United Spay Alliance founder Esther Mechler, and memorable tales of Fred the clinic dog — a golden retriever Dr. Jeff rescued and who now tends to recovering patients in the clinic. Melinda herself is a bookseller at Barnes & Noble with a long career writing about people and causes that make a difference. She describes feeling genuinely compelled to tell Dr. Jeff's story — certain that if she didn't, she would regret it for the rest of her life. In this episode you will hear: How Melinda came to write Dr. Jeff's biography — and why she felt she had no choice but to tell his story The defining moment that shaped Dr. Jeff's lifelong commitment to spay/neuter: being asked to euthanize 56 healthy puppies early in his career How Dr. Jeff built his practice around a non-negotiable rule — every pet that comes in must be spayed or neutered What makes Dr. Jeff such an effective teacher of new veterinarians and how he mentors them through hands-on, side-by-side instruction Stories of Dr. Jeff's work with exotic and unexpected animals — including spaying a jaguar and neutering a camel in rural Colorado The heartwarming story of Fred, the golden retriever Dr. Jeff rescued and who now serves as an unofficial clinic comforter for post-surgery animals The power of trust, collaboration, and handshake agreements in Dr. Jeff's approach to veterinary work around the world Why Melinda believes Dr. Jeff is a role model not just for aspiring vets, but for anyone who wants to rethink how we care for our animals Resources from this episode: Beyond the Boundaries: The Life and Times of Dr. Jeff, the Rocky Mountain Vet by Melinda Grohol — available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble Dr. Jeff: Rocky Mountain Vet — Animal Planet series featuring Dr. Jeff Young United Spay Alliance: unitedspayalliance.org Esther Mechler, President & Founder, United Spay Alliance — unitedspayalliance.org/about/board

Bio by Rick OlsonI'm an author, TEDx speaker, Distinguished Toastmaster, award-winning humorous speaker, and Salesforce Certified Professional. I've been married to the same wonderful woman for 35 years, and we've been through thick and thin together, literally and figuratively. My struggle with weight started early. My first diet was in 3rd grade, and by 6th grade, I was on NutriSystem at 200 pounds. That cycle of losing and regaining followed me into adulthood. About 10 years ago, everything came to a head when I landed in the ICU with a saddle embolism. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and sleep apnea, and left the hospital weighing 360 pounds.Since then, I have had some success with low-carb, keto, intermittent fasting, and ADF. I'd lose and get down to 280 or so, but I would end up gaining it back. I kept asking myself: I know what to do, so why can't I do it? Everything began to shift in October 2024 when I attended a workshop called The Stories We Live By. It helped me see how deeply my identity was shaped by the story of “being fat.” For the first time, I approached change with curiosity instead of criticism. Istarted studying my own patterns. What worked, what didn't. When did I have motivation, when did I lose it. Instead of following someone else's plan, I built a system around how I'm wired. One key realisation: I thrive on external accountability. So instead of fighting that, I leaned into it and started documenting my journey publicly on my YouTube channel, @justbelessfat. Since launching in November 2025, I've lost about 50 pounds. More importantly, I've shifted from shame and frustration to a sense of daily progress.I still face challenges, but thanks to the lens of self-curiosity, I learn and adjust. Join Graeme's Patreon and get accountability and support.www.patreon.com/thefastinghighwayWebsite to book a one-on-one call.www.thefastinghighway.com.To buy the book The Fasting Highway your local Amazon store, or any good online book seller.

In this special International Women's Day 2026 episode of The Wine CEO, I sit down with Namratha Stanley — French author, wine merchant, and founder of the Bordeaux wine brand Solicantus — to share one of the most powerful stories I've heard in the wine world. After surviving more than a decade in an abusive marriage in India, Namratha made the courageous decision to leave everything behind and rebuild her life. In 2017, she moved to Bordeaux, France, where she reinvented herself in the heart of one of the world's most famous wine regions.

In this episode of You Are Not Broken, I sit down with Susan Guidi — and this conversation is such a beautiful reminder that it is never too late to become who you were meant to be. Susan shares her journey growing up in a Cuban Catholic family, where cultural expectations around marriage, sexuality, and identity were very clear — and very rigid. We talk about how those early narratives shape the way we see ourselves as women… and how hard it can be to untangle them later in life. After a difficult divorce, Susan didn't shrink. She expanded. She reinvented herself through stand-up comedy (yes, really) and eventually stepped onto a bodybuilding stage — proving that transformation isn't reserved for the young. It's reserved for the brave. We talk about: How culture influences the stories we believe about ourselves Why comedy can be deeply therapeutic What it takes to compete in bodybuilding later in life The power of community support during major life transitions Why mindset matters more than motivation The role of nutrition in strength and longevity Redefining your identity after divorce, career shifts, or midlife change Why sharing your story can liberate someone else This episode is about empowerment — not the fluffy kind, but the earned kind. The kind that comes from taking control of your health, your body, your voice, and your future. Susan is living proof that you are not too old, too late, too divorced, too inexperienced, or too anything. You are just in the middle of becoming. If this conversation resonates, share it with a woman who needs to hear that reinvention is still on the table. Because it is.

In this episode, Keith welcomes Angel Ellis, a landscaper and small-business owner who transformed his life from hardship and incarceration into purpose, stability, and entrepreneurship. Angel shares his emotional turning point, how he rebuilt his identity, restored family relationships, and found the clarity to build a thriving landscaping company from scratch. The conversation explores practical business lessons—starting a service-based company legally, using local resources, transitioning from a job to full-time business ownership, staying aligned in marriage, and keeping priorities straight at home. Angel emphasizes discipline, personal responsibility, momentum, and the power of faith when overcoming fear, roadblocks, and uncertainty. This episode is perfect for entrepreneurs in landscaping, home services, or blue-collar trades who want motivation, resilience, business clarity, and a renewed sense of purpose.   "Now we only work Monday through Thursday by choice to have the weekends, more time for the wifey for life, have more time for ministry, serve King Jesus, and it's just awesome." – Angel Ellis   Topics Covered: How Angel rebuilt his life and launched a landscaping business from scratch   Practical steps to legally start and structure a lawn-care or home-service company   Transitioning from a day job into full-time landscaping with momentum and confidence   Work–life balance in the lawn-care industry, prioritizing marriage, home, and well-being   Scaling a small landscaping or service business with integrity, discipline, and consistency   How mindset, resilience, and community support drive long-term growth in lawn care and entrepreneurship   Key Takeaways Business Starts With Simple Action: Don't overcomplicate the launch of a landscaping or home-service company. You don't need a perfect plan to begin — just the willingness to ask questions, call the city or county, follow the legal basics, and put boots on the ground. Momentum doesn't come from theory, it comes from motion. The moment you commit and start saying yes to real work, the business begins to open up faster than you imagined. Don't Stay Half In and Half Out: Holding onto a job while trying to grow a lawn-care business can keep you stuck at half speed. Once Angel finally released the safety net and went all-in on his company, the work surged and his confidence skyrocketed. Entrepreneurship rewards commitment — when you're no longer split between a paycheck and a purpose, you create the urgency, energy, and freedom that full-time ownership requires. Private Peace Fuels Public Growth: A thriving landscaping business isn't just built in the field — it's built at home. Alignment in marriage, healthy prioritization, and peace inside the household create sharper decision-making, clearer leadership, and the emotional bandwidth needed to grow. You never want public success and private collapse. A stable home is the competitive advantage most entrepreneurs overlook.   Connect with Angel Ellis Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/prokutzlawncareandlandscaping/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ProKutzLawnCare Website: prokutz-lawncare.com Connect with Keith Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/keithkalfas/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thelandscapingemployeetrap Website: https://www.keithkalfas.com/resources Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@keith-kalfas   Resources and Websites:  Start Getting Leads Now https://www.footbridgemedia.com/keith Resources You Need To Build A Successful Business https://www.keithkalfas.com/resources

After years of living in constant pain and relying on prescription medications, Tim Kaufman found a way to take back his life through the healing power of a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle. In this episode of NHA Today, hosts Justin and Stephanie Williams sit down with Tim to discuss his incredible transformation—from being over 400 pounds and battling addiction, to completing marathons, triathlons, and inspiring thousands through his platform Fat Man Rants.

Karen Coleman-Ostrov, age 65, spent much of her adult life trapped in the exhausting cycle of dieting. She was a lifelong dieter who tried over a dozen different diet programs and protocols, each promising weight loss but ultimately leading to frustration. Some diets caused her to gain weight or slow down her metabolism, while others required tedious food measuring or strict deprivation. Though she often lost weight temporarily, none of these plans were sustainable long-term, and she would always regain what she lost.In August 2020, Karen had a pivotal moment when she saw a stunning, youthful photo of her sister-in-law, Dedra Campbell, on Facebook. Karen initially thought it was a much older photo because Dedra looked so slim and vibrant. When she learned it was recent, Karen immediately called her to uncover her secret. Dedra shared that her success came from practising intermittent fasting, a concept that initially worried Karen because it sounded like deprivation and constant hunger. Yet, out of curiosity and hope, Karen bought the book, “Fast.Feast.Repeat.” by Gin Stephens and decided to give fasting a try—starting with a clean 18/6 fast.To her surprise, Karen found fasting easier than expected. The first fast sparked a change that would transform her life.At the time, Karen weighed 175 pounds (fluctuating often between that and 182 pounds) at 5'5”. Over the coming months, Karen faced challenges like a slowed metabolism caused by years of yo-yo dieting, the effects of menopause, and managing type 2 diabetes. Less than a year into fasting, Karen joined The Fasting Highway and also ordered and read the book.  Karen found encouragement from Graeme and fellow fasters, which was crucial as she learned to trust the process and understand that her weight-loss journey was uniquely hers—meaning she shouldn't compare her progress to others'. Karen lost weight gradually but steadily.  After about two years, she dropped from 175 pounds to 160, and then a few months later to 149—a weight she hadn't seen in more than 20 years! Eventually, Karen's body settled around 142 pounds, a healthy and comfortable place for her. Her highest weight was 208 pounds, at which point she struggled with daily tasks such as bending over to tie her shoes, suffering from sleep apnea, and being out of breath after going up stairs or walking long distances.Today, Karen's health and mobility have vastly improved. She no longer has sleep apnea and can climb challenging staircases, like the 185 steps of the Gibbs Hill Lighthouse in Bermuda and the 294 steps of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, with ease. Maintaining her weight is effortless now with a flexible intermittent fasting routine, usually fasting 18/6 or OMAD on weekdays, and enjoying longer eating windows on weekends to socialise and eat out.Karen's favourite part about fasting is the control it gives her over food—not feeling controlled by it. When asked why she continues fasting after reaching and surpassing her goal weight, Karen's answer is simple: Intermittent fasting is not a diet or a fad—it's a sustainable lifestyle. This lifestyle has allowed her to lose weight for the last time and live confidently in her body every day.Come and Join Our Patreon Community.

My name is Dianne LeBlanc. I am 67 years old. And, living in Canada, I have been married to the same wonderful man for 48 years.  We have 2 adult children, ages 46 and 44, and 2 wonderful grandkids, ages 14 and 13. I did not have a weight problem growing up, but like many, after having my children, I started gaining weight.  I joined WW when I was around 30 years old and soon became a lifetime member.  The first time I joined I probably had 15 pounds to lose.  I gained it all back and more in no time and struggled, always.  I tried many different diets over the years, but none were sustainable. Fast forward to December 31st 2024, 2 months after my retirement, I was at my highest weight, probably close to 170, but I'm not sure, because I was no longer weighing.  I'm 5'1'' tall, and size 12 was too small.  I was very disappointed in myself and thought that I was just going to get bigger. I could see myself turning into my mother, who has been miserable all her life because of her weight. I'm down over 30 pounds and 4 pant sizes since January 1st of this year.  I'm not sure if I have much more to lose, but I'm counting on my body to let me know.Come and Join Our Patreon Community.
