When a sudden onset of manic episodes lands her in a psychiatric ward, what is an established, respected psychotherapist to do? MARCIA NAOMI BERGER, single and twenty-nine, has her first psychiatric hospitalization and then two more in the next year and a half. A series of close friends and mentors stand by her through challenges with abusive colleagues, conflicted relationships with men, estrangement from her mother, and confusion about what truly matters. Marcia Berger taks about her new memoir, The Bipolar Therapist: A Journey From Madness to Love and Meaning which reveals her personal journey of being the professional and the patient, of living with and overcoming Bipolar Disorder, a secret she kept hidden until now. It's a story not just about battling mental illness, but also about resilience, healing, and finding hope in the face of adversity. We discuss the stigma of mental illness and what we can do about it.  How some people recover from a severe mental illness and the way some people react to a person with mental health issues. Marcia offers insights into the challenges of bipolar disorder while challenging societal stigmas surrounding mental illness. Her story is not just about survival but about transformation and the power of love and meaning to overcome even the most daunting obstacles. Marcia Naomi Berger, LCSW, is a psychotherapist in private practice in San Rafael, California. She held senior-level positions in child welfare, alcoholism treatment, and psychiatry with the city and county of San Francisco. She also served as a lecturer on the clinical faculty at the University of California School of Medicine and as executive director of Jewish Family and Children's Services of the East Bay.  www.marriagemeetings.com

This week's guest is deeply passionate about parenting, mental health, and wellness,  They grew up with the impression they were losers, feeling worthless and helpless. The environment they rose from wasn't healthy and they struggled academically, and while resilient, they felt inadequate for a long time. Avi Wolfson was as a young adult, diagnosed with Bipolar Type I (previously known as Manic Depression) and Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Anxiety was evident and present within his family but seldom talked about, nor did he have permission to feel sad or express any feeling besides happiness. In addition, he felt pressured to take on heavily religious activities but had no interest in them; this all took a heavy toll, leading him to drink, take drugs, and music as vices. Avi joined the US National Guard in high school to absolve himself of this shame. he was proud to serve a country that he loved and protect the society in which we live so freely, but being in the military didn't prevent any of those problems, nor did it make them go away. and he was back at square one and rock bottom. Avi has struggled with MDD, Bipolar I, and has gone through very dark times in a traumatic childhood as a young, separated father to a girl, they believe their experience and unique perspective on single parenting would be valuable as he has become a stronger and more resilient person by finding light within my darkness.

Conventional wisdom has long held that countries, and even businesses, should not be run by those suffering from mental illness, especially during times of war or other dramatic challenges. Dr. Nassir Ghaemi, Director of the Mood Disorder Program at Tufts Medical Center and Professor of Psychiatry at Tufts University School of Medicine, disputes this notion. In his book A First-Rate Madness and other writings, he lays out a compelling case that in times of crisis, we are actually better off being led by mentally ill leaders than by mentally normal ones.David Priess and Nassir talked about the challenges (and surprising advantages) of assessing the mental illnesses of historical figures; the lingering impact of Freudian psychoanalysis within the psychiatric community; why the best crisis leaders are either mentally ill or mentally abnormal; the differences between mental illness and extreme personality; the indicators of manic depression; the cases of Winston Churchill, Abraham Lincoln, Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King, William Sherman, Franklin Roosevelt, John Kennedy, and Adolf Hitler; enduring stigmas associated with mental illness; Nassir's father's political activism and its influence on his son; the American Psychiatric Association's "Goldwater Rule" against offering a professional psychiatric opinion without a patient examination and proper authorization; and more.Among the works mentioned in this episode:The book A First-Rate Madness by Nassir GhaemiMemoirs of Emil KraepelinThe book Bipolar General: My Forever War with Mental Illness by Gregg MartinChatter is a production of Lawfare and Goat Rodeo.

Avi Wolfson leverages a career as a licensed realtor, professional salesperson, 3 time axe throwing champion, and best-selling author to help audiences directly as a professional speaker. Wolfson, an expert in resilience, entrepreneurship, and self-discovery, inspires others with his story of overcoming childhood trauma and mental health challenges and finding work-life balance. In addition, Wolfson is a proponent of failure as part of the success process, giving back positivity into the universe by paying it forward. Audiences and critics find Wolfson “creative, humble, honest and smart” and adept at growing organizations by “helping people into better positions where they're happy and flourish.”The greatest gift Avi can give an audience is to inspire at least one person to re-activate the spark in their life. Confidence and success are contagious, and fostering that kind of change causes a ripple effect. A true champion isn't someone who wins for themselves but does it to help others achieve what they have. These phrases dominated his life, but they didn't always. Before Avi was a licensed realtor, professional salesperson, best-selling author, and three-time axe-throwing champion– his successes were more grounded. Avi enjoyed playing and watching football, ultimate frisbee, and ping-pong. In addition, Avi loved playing video games, watching documentaries, and could solve a Rubik's cube. Like you, Avi valued his time with family and learned to be proud of his characteristics… for better or worse. What might be a different story than yours is Avi grew up with the impression he was a loser, feeling worthless and helpless. The environment Avi rose from wasn't healthy; Avi struggled academically, and while resilient, he felt inadequate for a long time. As a young adult, Avi was diagnosed with Bipolar Type I (previously known as Manic Depression) and Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). The anxiety was evident and present within his family but seldom talked about, nor did Avi have permission to feel sad or express any feeling besides happiness. In addition, Avi felt pressured to take on heavily religious activities he had no interest in; this all took a heavy toll, leading him to drink, take drugs, and music as vices. Avi joined the US National Guard in high school to absolve his self of this shame. Avi was proud to serve a country that he love and protect the society in which we live so freely, but being in the military didn't prevent any of those problems, nor did they make them go away. Avi was back at square one, at rock bottom. As a self-starter, independent learner, and resilient survivor, Avi knew he'd have to find it within his self if he had any hope of a resolution. Every rejection he'd faced led to something better; Avi had found a purpose within, to help others discover a champion inside. What started as writing would eventually become thirty titles about his experience in childhood and evolved into life coaching, helping others become confident and experienced, and now a career as a public speaker. Avi searched for those underdogs that struggle with business, life, and mental health and show them the champion they have inside.

My guest is Sally Alter, writer of 5 excellent books and world traveler.  She has had many roles in her storied life, including being a Nurse, a friend, and a cat owner.  She has lived in several places, now in Texas, and was born and raised in the U.K.  Although when I first met her, she wasn't sure if she was a "healer," it was clear that she had been a healer for many years and essentially couldn't help herself.  As she states, her M.O. in life is to be a great listener and to actually take an interest in those she interacts with, and it is precisely this preference for human connection that makes her a pure healer in all of her dealings.  She speaks first person about what it is like to be diagnosed with a mental illness and has several suggestions for those who find themselves there. In fact, I am substantially healed after our conversation, and I trust that you will be too!

It was an honor and a pleasure to speak with her for an interview, which she has included excerpts of in this book, too!” – Ken Honda, Japan's best selling zen millionaire, author of Happy Money: The Japanese Art of Making Peace with Your Money Moms like us with big dreams and school-age kids: For moms like me, the pandemic was an opportunity to re-evaluate and course-correct things in our lives we weren't thrilled with. Coming out of this period, sluggish yet motivated, so many of us can use this book to help us wake up!

I loved the hilarious, yet poignant stories about motherhood today and the window into the world of those who've gone for it – and did it. – Macollvie Neel, Brooklyn, NY “The words: imagination, play and fun are not the usual things we as mothers think of when wondering how to get a grip back on our career and I believe it provides a really fresh take and lots of food for thought for mothers reading it. Its tone is so energetic and fresh!” – Alejandra Molina, Coach, Miami, Florida “Melissa is a mom of three with big dreams who tells it like it is. She draws on her own experiences and the experiences of professionals she's interviewed for her podcast to reflect on the plight of the mother. How do women conform to or challenge the traditional “mom script”? If you're a mom, what can you do to break the “cultural glass ceiling” to be yourself and a great parent, all without having to force yourself into a mom mold that doesn't fit you? Melissa is like a great friend, honest and wise and funny, telling you about her life and asking you to reflect on yours. This book is a great purchase for moms in every stage of life.” – Maureen Turner Carey, Librarian, Austin, Texas “In her book, Melissa shows us that motherhood does not have to be a pause or an end to your pre-child self. With guidance from her podcast guests, she encourages us to think big, find what lights us up, think big, and move towards our goals with the steps that fit the reality of our lives as they are today. In doing so we honor and inspire our child(ren), and our own inner child.” – Katherine Dzierzynski, Museum Group Sales, Forest Hills, NY

“You just need to know you can outlast it.” – Art HamerEPISODE OVERVIEW: Did you hear the one about the bratty teenager who had to learn the hard way? You know, the one who moved out of her parents house in high school because of the strained relationship she had with her father. Today's guest not only talks openly to us about her journey through the early years of life (the highs, the lows, and everything in between), but also about losing her husband to cancer and at early age as an adult. How she got down, depressed, turned to alcoholism and food addiction.That's not where her story ends though. Today she's an HR expert, a consultant, a coach, and an author. And as you're going to see in this episode, her journey here was not without dark moments. She considered suicide, taking her kids with her, and so much more. This episode is packed! It's positive, it's real, it's raw, it's upbeat, it's fun, but it's also really serious and touching filled with 100 acts of love. Ladies & Gentlemen, welcome to the Kim Hamer story! GUEST BIO: On April 16, 2009, Kim Hamer watched her 44-yr-old husband take his last breath. During his illness and after his death, she was amazed by the helpful ways their coworkers, bosses, friends, and family supported them. Kim started calling their kind actions “acts of love”.After the death of her husband, Kim, an HR leader, noticed how little guidance leaders received when navigating cancer, health crisis, or death on their team. She knew their lack of knowledge negatively affected morale, employee engagement, and productivity. She set out to change that. Combining her personal experience with her professional knowledge and leadership skills, Kim launched her business to support leaders and coworkers when cancer (or any health crisis) affects a team member.Kim Hamer is the author of 100 Acts of Love: A Girlfriend's Guide to Loving Your Friend through Cancer or Loss, an easy-to-read book filled with 100 practical, quick, and effective ways to support a friend or coworker.Guest Info:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/100actsoflove/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimthamerWebsite: https://www.100actsoflove.com/Book: https://www.100actsoflove.com/shopSupport the showHOW TO SUPPORT THE REMARKABLE PEOPLE PODCAST: Share the podcast with your family, friends, and co-workers.

"Sometimes the best way into something is backward, and accidentally." ~ Bernard BalizetBalizet says he's been living a bit backward most of his life, but says he doesn't recommend that style for everyone. For example, the first time he made the Dean's List, he dropped out of college to try his hand at salmon fishing in Alaska. He ditched a lucrative-ish career to try one that was freelance and tips only. Eventually he learned these daring changes were most likely a bi-product of having a depressive disorder.Learn about that journey and how he created a project he named Backdoor Shakespeare. One teacher absolutely can change your path and allow new thoughts into your cranium. I think that was one of my favorite parts of Bernard's story. - King Lear by way of Jay Z? - Henry V ala Eminem? - Where do zombies fit in with Romeo?wwwbackdoorshakespeare.com

This solo episode is for a mom contemplating or getting ready for NaNoWriMo. It's divided into three parts. I want to share with you a little background into why I am going in this direction with my podcast Unimaginable Wellness the podcast for moms writing nonfiction, then I'll share my personal NaNoWriMo epic fail as a mom who had to make massive adjustments due to unforeseen circumstances, and then how I had to get myself mentally prepared to create my own NaNoWriMo experience. In the end, I will invite you to reach out to me on Instagram @melissallarena if you will be one of the brave mom souls who will be embarking on this year's NaNoWriMo adventure or if you will be creating one of your own. I have a mom-friendly ONE-PAGE worksheet with blank-page busting questions and fun tips that will keep you in your seat fit for moms who want to write their own non-fiction books.  Some background on why I am going in this direction with my podcast Unimaginable Wellness the podcast for moms writing nonfiction, Staying mentally grounded for me personally is a HUGE priority. This is why I decided to pivot this podcast into Unimaginable Wellness where you can expect weekly Mindfulness + Journaling + Wellness Habits For Moms Writing Nonfiction. I was raised by a single mom who has Manic Depression. On my dad's side, one of my first memories was visiting a nursing home and seeing my great-aunt Eladia who suffered from Alzheimer's. I do not have a mental illness and I have the memory of a small elephant. So, to the extent that I can continue to keep my brain bubble-wrapped and retain my sanity at ALL costs, I will. And in my over 40 years of living on this planet and carrying a chip on my shoulder about my writing skills, I have uncovered the holistic wellness practices that have worked for me both during my pre-mom days as well as my mom "in the thick of it" days. So this podcast is my way of sharing what I've learned has helped me stay calm, courageous, and banging on my keyboard no matter what my day has brought me. So I'm pivoting this podcast for us both. My writing journey has helped me retain my sense of self every single day along my journey as a mom. I believe writing can help you do the same too. Now, why non-fiction? Every summer during my Catholic school days, I had to read some classic fiction book Pride & Prejudice or The Great Gatsby. I was such a procrastinator that every summer I found myself inhaling these books just to get a gist for them and write those book reports in time for the first day of school. I didn't enjoy having to read books that were made up. Babysitters Club? Not interested. My life back then has ZERO resemblance to the books I was made to read nor told I should enjoy reading until I was 12. That's when I got my period. I didn't know ANYTHING about my period. So my mom took me to the library and I was told to take out books about my period. I was SO curious about what was happening to me right then and there that I read all the books I could get my hands on about puberty. Something unlocked for me. I was learning something that was relevant to me and that made me feel more informed. In hindsight, back then it's like I discovered that I could enjoy books, and my penchant for non-fiction books began. I'm still that non-fiction reader and right now I'm writing my own non-fiction book too. And after speaking with over 100 podcast guests since 2017, it's also my opinion that there is SO much more stuff to learn about real people's lives, family recipes, cultures, sea creatures, academic subjects, and historical events that non-fiction is still where it's at.  So now that you have a better sense of this podcast twist, let's discuss:  Now I'll share my personal NaNoWriMo epic fail as a mom who had to make massive adjustments due to unforeseen circumstances What Is NaNoWriMo? National Novel Writing Month began in 1999 as a daunting but straightforward challenge: to write 50,000 words of a novel in thirty days. Now, each year on November 1, hundreds of thousands of people around the world begin to write, determined to end the month with 50,000 words of a brand-new novel. They enter the month as elementary school teachers, mechanics, or stay-at-home parents. They leave novelists. Now, school breaks differ around the world but from a US perspective, November includes Thanksgiving break. So while the ambition is for you to write 1,667 words per day including on weekends, during Thanksgiving week, and day too. You may want to preplan for that now in October as to not find yourself breaking out in hives and rushing yourself to the ER because you had to skip sleep. I just had to lead with the timing of NaNoWriMo because it may not be realistic for you to participate in November. This is why in this week's episode, I want to shield you from disappointment by making these 3 ideas doable whether you decide to go all-in on NaNoWriMo or create your own writing lollapalooza as I did.  Here's my timeline as it related to NaNoWriMo in 2021 when I first set out to write my first draft The first week of May 2021 I spoke with a 30-year-old man in NZ with no kids who suggested that I write my first book in 30-days, it was part of a coaching program to help me monetize my coaching business at the time to help executives package, pitch, and position themselves into top marketing roles in corporations. I had three sons and I am the primary caregiver in my family. I didn't have a babysitter nor housekeeper during my 3.5 years in Australia so the assumption was that I could push out a book in 30-days relying on my sons being in school. I accepted the challenge. It wasn't in November. I put pen to paper on May 18, 2021. I didn't have a roadmap. I was just writing like a maniac. Praying for a salient book idea then in June Australia announced a lockdown that would last 106-days. P.S. my kids were on a holiday break before then so in May I was already in mommy mode. So on August 27, 2021, I signed up for an account with NaNoWriMo. It offers SO many resources…community, prompts, author inspiration, and plenty for fiction writers, but essentially it's its own container so you can immerse yourself in all that is writing. Fast-forward to October 19, 2022, and today is when I decided to verify my new NaNoWriMo account. Essentially, as a mom during that era, I barely had time to just write, I was not about to consume videos, meet new people for accountability, and now learn a new web platform if writing was a tall order for me. So instead, I decided to do my own lollapalooza of writing 1,000 words a day, and here is what it took for me as a mom to bubblewrap my sanity during the process. And here is ultimately how I had to get myself mentally prepared to create my own NaNoWriMo Experience 1. Setting up your own high stakes and deciding on a minute-by-minute basis at times whether you'll be a writer or a mom at the moment. 2. Sacred writing space and writing getaways are hilarious for moms. Listen for how I set up an invisible force field whether I had door locks or not (and during a lockdown when zero cafes were open) 3. 1,667 words a day for 30-days or packing nuts like a squirrel at 2,500 a day once in a while. You will need mental transitions between being a mom vs. a writer or you'll be bitter. Did you hear mine? I'm excited for you. Super excited for you. So here is how to get your very own for free my mom-friendly ONE-PAGE worksheet with blank-page busting questions and fun tips that will keep you in your seat. Send me a DM with the word NANO.

In this week's episode, you are about to go behind the scenes of my podcast relaunch journey. I want to reveal my personal reasons for pivoting from entrepreneurship to wellness. Today, I will invite you to be part of my creative process. I'll ask you to send me your thoughts on 3 important questions. My aim is to ensure the next iteration of this podcast will be valuable and part of your weekly routine going forward. Oh, and stay tuned until the end, because I will be doing something special for those moms who do answer those 3 questions before the end of October 14th. But first, in 2017, I launched An Interview with Melissa Llarena out of a dare. One night I was cooking rice and beans, as many other Latina moms would do, when suddenly and excitingly my husband had an idea. He dared me to invite GaryVee and James Altucher to my podcast but first to launch a podcast. I'm grateful. I achieved that dare. Other things also came from my 140+ podcast episodes, I: overcame familiar mom feelings of imposter syndrome figured out that I can bring my own value to conversations even with goddess-like Suzy Batiz the inventor of Poo~Pourri mastered the art of organizing my recordings in between childcare snafus the whole journey has taught me a lot about how big I was or wasn't playing it also felt good, really good to always have a fun, and daring conversation up my sleeves amongst my mom friends or friends in conventional careers frankly, doing this podcast, got me out of my mom brain and that felt good Then after 140 episodes or so I started to see how far a podcast that began as a dare could get. Thus far, fueled by a dare, I've been able to garner about 15K downloads. This may sound wonderful. However, through the years I'd hear of some getting 10K downloads in their first few months.  So at this point, I decided to look at the numbers more seriously, and here is what I uncovered: people were listening but I started to feel like it was a one-way conversation (which I take total ownership as my episodes started to get long) guests were coming but their followers were not sticking around after one episode (I'll admit it may have been because my guest list start feeling unpredictable) meanwhile, marketing was happening but I was exhausted and my recent relocation from Australia back to the USA was a moment where I felt like I bit off more than I could chew Now, I have my MBA. I saw the stats but my ego just kept me going. I wasn't asking my listeners for feedback. I was just producing content and not really knowing WHY the numbers were not going up. Then one of my sons asked me a question Noah asked me: mommy, why are you doing a podcast if you are not getting paid for it? All the data in the world could have told me to stop podcasting or pour more resources into marketing it or evolving the theme to something more niche. But it was Noah my 8-year-old who led me here to pivot my podcast significantly.  Noah got me to be DONE with listening to my ego.  I contemplate for enough time. I was falling into a trap. I was going after fancy schmancy people because I'm scared that I won't be fancy schmancy like them if we aren't in the same orbits. Who would I be without them? Am I enough without their company? Noah got me to think about this thought very deeply.  This is why I've set out to do something very different. Very aligned. And very raw. And this is where you come in so please let me what you think. I'll share how in a moment.  I want to reshape this podcast to address one very urgent question as there is an influx of moms pursuing self-employment right now. Key Question: What ancient or modern wellness practices can entrepreneurial moms use to achieve the kind of unimaginable wellness that can truly unlock their greatest creative potential? This question has nothing to do with a dare. I'll tell you where this question comes from: I was raised by a single mom with Manic Depression. I have only known my mom with her illness since 1979.  Back then, mental health was a family secret. Yet, seeing her unable to accomplish her grandiose ambitions fueled me to pursue (and achieve some of my own). You can say building my own business and being a mom these last 11 years is evidence that there could be a silver lining when moms think extraordinary thoughts and have solid wellness practices to bubblewrap their sanity. All of this to say: I stand for resilience and creativity and I'd love to share my wisdom along with the wisdom of experts with my fellow moms who have big dreams yet might be neglecting their needs. I can attest to it that building a business as well as a family is innately a contact sport. Wellness is what can help entrepreneurs get back up. For moms, we must get back up. Personally, my mom never quite got there. *****SHORT SURVEY FOR PODCAST PIVOT***** So this is where you come into this relaunch process. Are you ready? Scooch up in your seat. Grab a notepad. This is your chance to help a mom on a mission. Send answers to melissa [@} melissallarena.com or via Instagram @melissallarena I want to know 3 things.  Who is an expert that you trust for your wellness insights? Anywhere in the world. The person you follow. You may have read their book or watched them on TV. Who do you consult for your wellness practices or guidance? Write it down. Whoever comes to mind it could be your tia Josefita or Jack Kornfield. What would wellness feel like for you personally? What word or words come to mind? If you are a visual person, what images pop up. If you are a kinesthetic person, what movements feel like your deepest expression of wellness?  If you are more auditory what would wellness sound like? What questions do you have about wellness?  Wellness is very broad to me: Physical, mental health, emotional, spiritual, social, intellectual, creative wellness….my quest is to make sure we are thinking more deeply, proactively, and in a way that we can hold ourselves accountable…so the solutions/ideas I'm seeking from future guests need to be practical and within reach So I've asked you these three questions. So where do you send your thoughts? You can email me your questions to Melissa @ melissallarena.com OR you can catch me on Instagram @melissallarena and send me an audio message there or message with ideas. Two ways for you.  *****REWARD FOR SURVEY RESPONSES***** Oh and I would love to reward you for your participation in this mini-survey. In exchange for your answers, I will be scheduling a free meditation session over Zoom for moms who are new to self-employment.  We will be covering two meditations one called: how to find calm even in the midst of a shitstorm (15-minutes) how to release guilt even if your kid tends to be the last one picked up from most places (15-minutes) Both topics after my own 11-year entrepreneurial adventures + motherhood journey are near and dear to my life and that's why I want to walk you through my process. These meditations have helped ME and I firmly believe that us moms breathing together can be one of the most beautiful contributions we can make to our families and business.  The exact Zoom date will be set for the week of October 17th.  Based on who sends in her answers, we will iron out the exact date/time. Send me your answers via email or Instagram. You'll see this in your show notes too. In the meantime, beyond sending me your answers. As it relates to this specific podcast episode. On another note.... I need your help. Moms know 100s of other moms. I know billion-dollar companies out there who use our word of mouth to sell us things we need and don't need. The time is now to help me by using your megaphone. I would like to ask that you SHARE or FORWARD this episode on your social media. I would be extra honored if you sent this to your whatsapp group mom communities. If you are a fellow podcaster it would be an honor to be a guest on your show so that I can get this message out too. The incredible thing I've noticed as a coach who has helped moms build their self-confidence is that billion-dollar businesses know how powerful we are. Yet, it's us who sometimes forget.  Has that ever happened to you? You see a survey out there and you think to yourself: aw they don't need my opinion. Or, I'm just going to say something they must already know. Alternatively, you might think I don't have time to add another thing to my plate. I'm a MOM! Here's my answer to all of those thoughts: What is on your mind is important. Your ideas. Your perspective. They are important. You are important. Your hopes. Your dreams. Your concerns. Your shares. Your forwards. All matter. I want to be certain that this next edition of my podcast Unimaginable Wellness gives you the tools, insights, and hope you need to make your dreams possible. You only get one you and this is about ensuring you've got a well from which to give to the world. So what do you say? Are you emailing me or DM-ing me your answers? I'd be honored to read them and lead you in my guided meditations specifically made for moms who are new to the world of self-employment.  Thank you and stay tuned until next Tuesday. I'll be releasing an interview I did with Fran Hauser Named one of the "6 Most Powerful Women in NYC's Tech Scene" by Refinery29. If you are a mom who is building a tech business then tune in because Fran loves investing in women-owned businesses that bring us together.

In this episode of “The Journey of My Mother's Son” podcast, I sit down to talk with Amy and Joe Rogan. Amy and Joe are fellow full-time nomads, traveling in a van, rolling with the punches that life throws at them, and making wonderful memories. They are currently working on their first book, Happy Medium, which is scheduled to be released in the Spring of 2023. Amy has had extensive personal and professional experiences. All of these experiences combine into a powerful perspective of technical expertise with consideration for creative and emotional wellbeing. Professionally, Amy had an extensive career in the fashion industry as a technical fashion designer before transitioning into an entrepreneur. She has worked for companies such as QVC and Disney in product development.  She then partnered up with Joe in their entrepreneurial adventures with their granola bar business, elite coffee catering business, network marketing businesses, and more. She keeps them organized with the back-office details and planning events. Personally, Amy has triumphed over multiple serious health issues including Fibromyalgia, Manic Depression, Anxiety, Insomnia, as well as having multiple surgeries: Appendectomy, Cholecystectomy (Gallbladder), Hemithyroidectomy (removal of half the Thyroid), Supracervical Hysterectomy with Unilateral ⁠Oophorectomy (removal of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and left ovary with large endometrial cyst as well as endometriosis adhesions.)  The chronic and severe pains have given Amy a different view of life and what's most important to her. Gratitude is the foundation of happiness. After Joe was labeled as "learning disabled" he discovered self-reliance and determination to experience the world as he sees it, from a different point of view. That label drives him to prove they did not understand how to teach a creative mind. After getting a Bachelor's degree in computer art and traditional animation, Joe has always kept drawing even though he gave up pursuing his career to take care of Amy. He worked various jobs, each leading to new and exciting experiences building to the next one.  As a UPS driver, Graphic Artist for a T-shirt printing company, Bartender, Catering Floor Captain, PR for his own YoYo Business, Published Illustrator, and Gig Economy worker, he has learned valuable life skills and built lasting relationships. His entrepreneurial heart and persistence have created multiple businesses and explored high-risk/high-reward opportunities. His ability to see the bigger picture takes us to places we never thought possible. You can find out more about the Rolling Rogans at www.rollingrogans.com.

Episode 53 Charles HollingsworthCharles Hollingsworth seemed to have it all. He was a doctor with a successful medical practice in South Lake Tahoe, Nevada. He was married with 2 daughters, and lived an adventurous lifestyle with a love of jet skiing, running, and the outdoors. From all outward appearances, life was good for the 6ft1 doctor with 1950's movie star-leading man-like looks. But 1970 was a rough year for the 38 year-old. His marriage had fallen apart, and his wife finally left him after years of his infidelities. His wife found new love, but Charles found himself living alone. He was battling financial problems, and his family believed he had undiagnosed Manic Depression. On October 26, 1970, Charles left his office following an argument and was never seen again. His car was found abandoned in a desolate area 24 miles from where he was last seen. Inside the car were several of his belongings, including his gun and running shoes, but there was no sign of Charles, and he was never seen again.His case has been linked by some as possibly being connected to the missing persons case of Donna Lass. Lass, a nurse at a South Lake Tahoe casino, had moved into an apartment less than a mile from Charles Hollingsworth's apartment, just a day before she vanished on September 6, 1970. Charles Hollingsworth was declared legally dead, seven years after he vanished, but his family wants to know the truth about what happened to him, and they haven't totally ruled out the possibility that he left his old life behind to start over. In this episode, his daughter Kathy discusses her father's case, and the details surrounding his disappearance.If you have information about the disappearance of Charles Hollingsworth please call the South Lake Tahoe Police Department 530-542-6110If you'd like to support this podcast via a donation, you can do so through Patreon here-https://www.patreon.com/MissingPodcastTo contact the podcast or learn more about the cases we discuss visit:Missingpersonspodcast.netFollow us on Social media-Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Missing-Persons-Podcast-103501877912153orTwitter:https://twitter.com/Missing_Po

Amy & Joe Rogan, a couple of crazy 40 somethings that made a decision to change their lives from the corporate world to a life of adventure and freedom. Life is too short. They enjoy working together to inspire change and encourage people to go after their dreams while rolling along in their custom-built RV.They love meeting and helping amazing people along the way.   AMY ROGAN had an extensive career in the fashion industry as a technical fashion designer. She has worked for companies such as QVC and Disney in product development. She then partnered up with Joe in their entrepreneurial adventures with their granola bar business, elite coffee catering businesses, network marketing businesses, and more. She keeps them organized with the back-office details and planning events.   AMY has battled multiple health issues including Fibromyalgia, Manic Depression, Anxiety, Insomnia, as well as having multiple surgeries. The chronic and severe pains have given Amy a different view of life and what's most important to her. Gratitude is the foundation of happiness and she uses that to look for the good in all things.   JOE ROGAN was labeled as "learning disabled" he discovered self-reliance and determination to experience the world as he sees it, from a different point of view. That label drives him to prove they did not understand how to teach a creative mind.   After getting a Bachelor's degree in computer art and traditional animation, Joe has always kept drawing even though he gave up pursuing his career to take care of Amy. He worked various jobs, each leading to new and exciting experiences building to the next one. As a UPS driver, Graphic Artist for a t-shirt printing company, Bartender, Catering Floor Captain, PR for his own YoYo Business, Published Illustrator, and Gig Economy worker, he has learned valuable life skills and built lasting relationships. His entrepreneurial heart and persistence have created multiple businesses and explored high-risk/high-reward opportunities. His ability to see the bigger picture takes us to places we never thought possible.   https://www.rollingrogans.com/happy-medium is where you can find their book   FOR COACH LOIS' RESOURCES - go to www.loiskoffi.com/resources   FIND HER 4 STEP PROVEN FRAMEWORK AT: https://loiskoffi.lpages.co/4-step-proven-framework/   JOIN HER FACEBOOK COMMUNITY AT HER PODCAST WEBSITE: www.loiskoffi.com/podcast   SUBSCRIBE TO HER YOUTUBE CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/loiskofficoffee   BECOME A FOUNDING MEMBER OF HER INNER CIRCLE MEMBERSHIP AT: http://loiskoffi.com/membership

So I thought to ask your favorite master storytellers how they do their magic to hook YOU. After the first few episodes, it occurred to me that maybe someone listening might be curious how their first page sits with an audience, so I'm opening up Page One to any writer who wants to submit the first page of a book they're currently writing. If your page is chosen, you'll be invited onto the show to read it and get live feedback from one of Page One's master storytellers. Page One exists to inspire, celebrate and promote the work of both well-known and unknown creative talent.  You can listen to Page One on Apple podcasts, Spotify, Pandora, Stitcher and all your favorite podcast players. Hear past episodes.Shoutouts: This episode supports National Poetry Month, where you can sign up to receive a poem-a-day curated in April by Naomi Shihab Nye and the 22in'22 a Zibby Books Initiative which encourages all of us to visit 22 bookstores in 2022. How awesome is that? Great idea Zibby Books! As an author, I love independent bookstores and believe they play a huge role in our communities, nurturing our love of literature and enriching our lives with programming and other events that promote literacy, bringing readers and writers together. Living here in the San Francisco Bay Area with more independent bookstores per capita than anywhere else in the country, I will be visiting many of my favorite bookstores in the coming months with my daughter in tow. Wherever this finds you, I hope you do the same. And while you get a great new book or two, please tell them about the Page One Podcast. Thank you for supporting your nearest bookstore and the authors whose work they carry. Happy browsing to all! 

20 years ago, Nick lost a friend at high school to suicide. Nick's friend, Zaf had struggled with what was known as Manic Depression at the time (now recognised as Bipolar) and Nick discusses the struggles Zaf faced as a teenager. Nick shares the effect grief and guilt had on him and, without any support available to him or his friends at the time, why he had no idea how (or even why) to process his feelings. We hope that by Nick sharing his story, we can understand how adolescents may process grief and how we can best support them. For example, we discuss how it is best to foster open emotional relationships with adolescents so that when events like this happen, talking about emotions is acceptable and safe. Nick has learnt how to embrace his feelings and feels he is more emotionally mature due to what happened to Zaf. In particular, Nick has channelled some of his guilt into becoming a Samaritans listening volunteer and discusses the charity's values and beliefs about suicide and how they support suicidal people. Listen with care and know there are people out there that can help and support you.  Within the UK:  Samaritans - Free on 116 123  Suicide&Co - Free on 0800 054 8400 Mon-Friday 9aam-9pm  Within the US:  Suicide Hotline: Free on 1-800-273-8255 or text 742741  Anywhere else in the World: Suicide Grief Support Contact me here: DrSue@suicidegriefsupport.com and we will see what is available in your country.
