Welcome to today's episode with host Sadie and a medical panel of three Hoffman Process graduates who are also esteemed medical practitioners. Our host, Sadie, Carrie Levine, Dr. David Hanscom, and Dr. Kash Trivedi engage in this powerful conversation. They cover the connection between emotional health and physical health, the mind-body connection, finding the safety within needed to heal, and so much more. With her background as a licensed Nurse Practitioner, Sadie guides the panel with insightful questions. Our guests answer through their embodied learning from both the Process and their many years of medical practice. They share insights on what it means to practice medicine with awareness, compassion, and the knowledge that can help guide their patients to deeper healing. As the conversation goes deeper into the idea of healing needing a sense of safety, Sadie then asks the panel if we each can "take responsibility for our inner experience of safety?" Carrie responds, saying, "I think we have to. I don't know that anybody else can do that for us. ... I think it's on us." We hope you enjoy this conversation with Carrie, Davide, Kash, and Sadie.

RUNDOWN   Is Mitch secretly a MOBSTER? The guys ride the high of a Seahawks blowout while fretting an Earnest Jones IV injury and torching D.C.'s awful turf, then rip through birthday/lore nuggets. An unforgettable World Series finish, seen through a Seattle lens—taking petty joy in Toronto's collapse while admitting Game 7 (and the under-discussed, error-filled Game 6) will haunt Mariners fans for years. Then it's all Seahawks: a near-perfect beatdown in D.C., vintage throwback uniforms, and why John Schneider should chase help at WR/OL/LB before the deadline. Mitch, Brady, and Jacson break down Seattle's 38–14 primetime rout of Washington — a game where both sides of the ball finally clicked. They discuss Sam Darnold's near-perfect night (one of only four 97+ QBRs in the NFL this season — three belonging to him), Mike Macdonald's astounding 11–1 road record, and the play-calling brilliance driving the offense. Rick Neuheisel joins Mitch to break down a wild week in college football — from the bloated buyouts fueling a $160 million coaching carousel to Washington's unlikely playoff path. The two dive into quarterback drama, "alma mater alimony," and the rise of dual-threat sensation Demond Williams, before wrapping with Taco Time's weekly honors — including a nod to Oklahoma's kicker and his unforgettable Daisy Duke game-day look. Christian Caple joins Mitch to assess the Huskies' 6–2 season and the playoff math that could still put Washington in the 12-team field if they run the table. He breaks down the defense's ability to hang with Oregon, the tricky stretch at UCLA, and how Jed Fish's success could make him a hot-commodity coach with a star quarterback in tow.   GUESTS   Brady Henderson | Seahawks Insider, ESPN Jacson Bevens | Writer, Cigar Thoughts Rick Neuheisel | CBS College Football Analyst, Former Head Coach & Rose Bowl Champion Christian Caple | UW Football Insider, On Montlake   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Mitch Gets Mistaken for a Mobster, Hotshot's Arrest-Video Obsession, and a Giddy Seahawks Sunday 20:12 | BEAT THE BOYS - Register at MitchUnfiltered.com 27:48 | Mariners Heartbreak, Dodgers Relief, and a Seahawks Surge with Trade-Deadline Stakes 46:58 | GUEST: Seahawks No-Table; Seahawks Dominate in D.C. — Darnold's Surge, McDonald's Mastery, and a 6–2 Statement 1:09:20 | GUEST: Rick Neuheisel; on the Coaching Carousel, Playoff Chaos, and the Short Shorts Heard 'Round the Nation 1:41:08 | GUEST: Christian Caple: on Washington's Playoff Chances, Jed Fish's Future, and the Rise of Demond Williams Jr. 2:04:56 | Other Stuff Segment: NFL 68-yard field goal record (JAX kicker Cam Little), NBA gambling/poker scandal (prop bets, x-ray glasses, star player tax lien), Pittsburgh radio host loses bet and gets nipple piercings, Scott Woodward's AD buyout saga (Jimbo Fisher, Brian Kelly, LSU governor, Woodward payout), Robert Englund gets Hollywood Walk of Fame star (Freddy Krueger story), Adrian Peterson's latest DWI and weapon arrest, Phil Mickelson insider-info case echoes 2016 SEC probe, RIPs: Bob Trumpy — Bengals TE/longtime NBC broadcaster (80), Carol Davis — Raiders co-owner, widow of Al Davis (93), Yoervis Medina — former Mariners/Cubs pitcher (37), Nick Mangold — former Jets center (41), Ace Frehley — original KISS guitarist, Dwayne Roberts — inventor of the frozen burrito (88), HEADLINEs: Breathing through our butts proven safe — Mitch Levy's been talking out his ass for years, GQ says "Nut Maxers" aim for maximum output — I was hoping it was a candy bar, MSN reports boob jobs are shrinking — so no more inflation, Detroit cop appears pantless in court — didn't stand up well, Customers sue On shoes for squeaks — my mom should've sued my dad first.

"[When] a lot of men think about prostate exams, they immediately think of the glove going on the hand of the physician, and they immediately clench. But really try to talk with them and discuss with them what some of the benefits are of understanding early detection. Even just having those conversations with their providers so that they understand what the risk and benefits are of having screening. And then educate patients on what a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and digital rectal exam (DRE) actually are—how it happens, what it shows, and what the necessary benefits of those are," ONS member Clara Beaver, DNP, RN, AOCNS®, ACNS-BC, manager of clinical education and clinical nurse specialist at Karmanos Cancer Institute in Detroit, MI, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about prostate cancer screening, early detection, and disparities.

To provide feedback or otherwise reach ONS about the podcast, email pubONSVoice@ons.org Highlights From This Episode "The recommendations are men [aged] 45 who are at high risk, including African American men and men who have a first-degree relative who has been diagnosed with prostate cancer younger than 65 should go through screening. And men aged 40 at an even higher risk, these are the men that have that one first-degree relative who has had prostate cancer before 65. Screening includes the PSA blood test and a digital exam. Those are the screening recommendations, although they are a little bit controversial." TS 3:42 "You still see PSAs and DREs as the first line because they're easier for primary care providers to perform. ... Those are typically covered by insurance, so they still play that role in screening. But with the advent of MRIs and biomarkers, these have really helped refine that screening process and determine treatment options for our patients. Again, those patients who may be at a bit of a higher risk could go for an MRI or have biomarkers completed. Or if they're on that verge with their Gleason score, instead of doing a biopsy, they may send the patient for an MRI or do biomarkers for that patient. ... These updated technologies put [patients] a little bit more at ease that someone's watching what's going on, and they don't have to have anything invasive done to see where they're at with their staging." TS 4:35 "Disparities in screening access exist based on race, socioeconomic status, gender identity, education, and geography. It's really hard in rural areas to get primary care providers or urologists who can actually see these patients, [and] sometimes in urban areas. So socioeconomic status can affect that, but also where a person lives. African American men with lower incomes and people in rural areas face the greatest barriers to receiving screening. It's also important to encourage anyone with a prostate to be screened and offer gender-neutral settings for patients to feel comfortable." TS 7:50 "I think a lot of men feel like if they have no symptoms, they don't have prostate cancer ... so a lot of patients may put off screening because they feel fine, [they] haven't had any urinary symptoms, it doesn't run in their family. ...With prostate cancer, there usually are not symptoms that a patient's having—they may have some urinary issues or some pain—but it's not very frequent that they have that. So, just making sure our patients understand that even though they're not feeling something, it doesn't mean there's not something else going on there." TS 12:53 "Prostate cancer found at an early age can be very curable, so it's really important for men to have those conversations with their providers about the risk and benefits of screening. And anyone that we can help along the way to be able to have those conversations, I think is a great thing for oncology nurses to do." TS 15:44

David McKnight compares the approach of some of the biggest names in personal finance: Suze Orman, and William "Bill" Bengen (the man who invented the 4% Rule). In a recent interview covered by MSN, Suze Orman declared flat out that the 4% Rule is dead since markets are volatile, interest rates fluctuate, and people are living longer. David shares the "origin story" of how the 4% Rule came to be – and its creator Bill Bengen. Interviewed by MSN, Bengen updated his research and concluded that, based on current data, a 4.7% withdrawal rate is now sustainable. David compares Orman's views on the 4% Rule with those of Bengen. As explained by David, when you purchase a guaranteed lifetime income annuity, you're transferring a portion of your retirement savings to an insurance company in exchange for a guaranteed paycheck for life. Remember: not all annuities are created equal – that's why you need to understand fees, credit ratings, inflation writers and surrender periods.

Menopause is often portrayed as a period of decline, but what if it could be reframed as an awakening? Join co-authors Dr. Patricia Singh, psychotherapist and psychedelic integration specialist, and Kelly McGinty, nurse practitioner specializing in hormonal and integrative wellness, for a groundbreaking exploration of menopause as a transformative threshold. This session will delve into how psychedelics, especially psilocybin, offer a radical new perspective, easing cognitive rigidity, reducing internal narratives of decline, and fostering emotional and spiritual growth.

About Mycelopause: Uncovering the Magic of Menopause with Psilocybin Co-authored by Dr. Trish Singh, PhD, LPCC and Kelly McGinty, CNP, MSN, Mycelopause is not your typical menopause guide.

“This was a panel of subject matter experts of various nurses and pharmacists. We often found common ground but also discovered new ideas, different touchpoints, and key junctures along that oral anticancer medication journey. For example, the pharmacists were able to share their insights into their unique workflows within their practice setting. What resulted is a resource that truly reflects that collaborative effort between the disciplines,” ONS member Mary Anderson, BSN, RN, OCN®, senior manager of nursing membership and professional development at the Network for Collaborative Oncology Development and Advancement (NCODA) in Cazenovia, NY, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS. Anderson spoke with Weimer and Kris LeFebvre, DNP, RN, NPD-BC, AOCN®, oncology clinical specialist at ONS, about the Oral Anticancer Medication Care Compass: Resources for Interprofessional Navigation, a project created as a collaboration between ONS and NCODA.

To provide feedback or otherwise reach ONS about the podcast, email pubONSVoice@ons.org Highlights From This Episode LeFebvre: “There are five different elements to the care compass itself. The first is called the OAM [oral anticancer medication] workflow analysis tool. ... This [tool] allows an OAM program to really study where their processes are. Where are the gaps in the process and where might their patients be at risk? It's something that you can use within your setting to analyze your current processes and see where you can strengthen them. The second tool is something focused on patient and caregiver education. This includes a lot of information about what should be taught, how it could be taught, the best timing and so forth, according to the literature. ... The third tool is an assessment and grading tool. It's a fun tool that approaches symptom management using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events grading tool. ... The fourth tool is a specialty pharmacy and patient assistance contact directory template. This is a spreadsheet that can be used by anyone navigating patient care with OAMs to keep track of their professional contacts. ... The final [tool] is the OAM adherence blueprint. This has a lot of important information on adherence, methods to assess adherence, and calculate adherence rate.” TS 7:15 LeFebvre: “Interprofessional collaboration is so essential just in day-to-day care, and OAM care is no different in that regard. Oncology nurses work in so many different settings and their role may be very different even if they have the same title. You can have OAM navigation that is completely handled in the pharmacy. I've talked with nurses who have said, ‘We don't even touch it.' But they do. Because when a patient has a combination regimen, they might have an infusion regimen that goes along with an oral therapy. Or that patient might just know that infusion room nurse so much better and they feel more comfortable [contacting them] when they have a side effect from their oral therapy. So, infusion nurses need to be aware of what the patients are on and what the potential side effects are.” TS 14:14 Anderson: “The resource for OAM education that we created is literally a blueprint of many resources out there to help nurses, pharmacists, and oncology professionals educate their patients on taking OAMs. ... [The OAM Care Compass] also helps with communication channels. It helps knowing that all the documentation is occurring and when everybody is documenting within their role and according to those key touchpoints, there's less opportunity to lose track of your patients because we know what's happening.” TS 16:33 Anderson: “I think the biggest misconception we see is that people think taking OAMs is easier than infusion therapies. And while it's true that OAMs do offer significant benefits such as the convenience and the ability for patients to take their medication at home, we are also placing a huge burden on our patients. They need to navigate that very complex health system to obtain their medication and understand their treatment plan and adhere to that precise regimen. Additionally, we are seeing more and more complex treatment regimens with combination therapies, which further increases the need for that early and ongoing education, monitoring, and support.” TS 20:38

Una Hopkins, DNP, MSN, FNP-BC, NE-BC, RN, FACCC, president of the Association of Cancer Care Centers (ACCC) designated her theme for the 2025-2026 year as Designing Oncology Care to Meet the Needs of a Growing Patient Population in response to forecasts predicting both patient and survivor populations will grow in coming years. In this episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with Dr. Hopkins about the importance of peer-to-peer mentorship in workforce development and empowerment, particularly for nurses, and why retired nurses are well-equipped to provide this mentorship. Later in the episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with Josephine Lisowski, RN, BSN, OCN, PRN nurse at Advocate Health, who came out of retirement to fill a new role reducing burnout and increasing retention of oncology nurses. Throughout her career, Lisowski identified that a strong culture rooted in quality, patient safety, and excellence in nursing must be nurtured to avoid burnout. Upon retirement, she felt a pull to return towards mentoring and supporting younger oncology nurses to improve retention and job satisfaction. Lisowski will discuss how using a retired nurse for this mentorship role at Advocate Health lifted the burden on the main work force and combined generational strengths to enable nurses to provide the best care possible to patients.     “We have to create spaces that are more psychologically safe for both our patients and our providers. I think that once we do that, we will see burnout change” - Dr. Hopkins “When you bring a retired nurse back again, it's meeting them where they are. They still want to share that knowledge that they have.” - Dr. Hopkins There's so much new innovation coming every day. But peer-to-peer, we can knock things between each other... It educates me and it educates them.” - Lisowski “I'm trying to encourage hospital management to keep the older nurses on at some point and not just have a whole new crew... In oncology, experience counts.” - Lisowski   Una Hopkins, DNP, MSN, FNP-BC, NE-BC, RN, FACCC President, Association of Cancer Care Centers Director for Research and Evidence-Based Practice Montefiore Medical Center Bronx, New York Josephine Lisowski, RN, BSN, OCN PRN Nurse Advocate Health Park Ridge, Illinois Resources: Healthcare Burnout: An Epidemic Among Oncology Nurses Burnout Prevention & Education   Mentoring Those New to Oncology   Onboarding Experienced Non-Oncology Nurses to Address Staffing Shortages   A Perfect Fit: Mentoring Experienced RNs to Meet Oncology Clinic Demand   This podcast is part of a special series featuring ACCC members committed to the 2025-2026 ACCC President's Theme: Designing Oncology Care to Meet the Needs of a Growing Patient Population.

In this episode of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Podcast, host Samantha Gambles Farr, MSN, AG-ACNP, FNP-C, RNFA, speaks with Brian Boling, DNP, AGACNP-BC, FCCM, an advanced practice provider (APP) in the Department of Anesthesiology, Division of Critical Care Medicine, at the University of Kentucky and host of the Critical Care Scenarios podcast. They explore the challenges and opportunities facing novice nurses and APPs as they transition into new roles in critical care. Drawing from his own nontraditional path into nursing and advanced practice, Dr. Boling shares how self-directed learning—through podcasts, blogs, and social media—can supplement formal education and foster professional growth. He emphasizes the importance of building a personalized curriculum that balances foundational knowledge with emerging trends and encourages learners to focus not only on hot topics but also on the essential, everyday skills that drive patient outcomes. The conversation highlights strategies for identifying credible educational resources and maintaining work-life balance while pursuing lifelong learning. Listeners will gain insights into how experienced clinicians can support novice colleagues through informal mentorship and bedside teaching and how honesty about knowledge gaps can lead to deeper learning. Whether you're a new graduate, a transitioning clinician, or a seasoned clinician looking to mentor others, this episode offers practical guidance for education, growth, and leadership in critical care.

In episode 7 of season 4 of the Nursing Strategies for Success Podcast, I had the ABSOLUTE PLEASURE of having another amazing conversation with Maggie Ortiz of advocatesfornurses.com - She was a guest on Season 2 - where we discuss just how little education is being done to prepare Nurses for just how serious it can be if Nurses do not effectively leverage their licenses and the regulations that are placed against them to advocate for safe and effective care - despite the pressures of an increasingly difficult healthcare system. This is a CALL TO ACTION for Nursing Programs of Study to really beef up the education that Nurses need to protect their patients/residents, themselves, their licenses and the organizations in which they work! From the CEO all the way down to the CNA - following scope of practice and ensuring that others are doing the same is EVERYONE's Responsibility, and in today's healthcare industry - it's more important than ever! ⚖️YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS THIS EPISODE!

Welcome to Monday Motivation!

In this episode, we are joined by Sarah A. Browne Bradwisch, PhD, RN and Erin Murphy-Smith, MSN, RN to explore the multifaceted implications of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), which are widely used for weight management in addition to diabetes treatment. The conversation reviews the pharmacodynamic and physiologic mechanisms of GLP-1 RAs and addresses the clinical, societal, and psychological dimensions of these medications. The speakers emphasize the nurse's role in patient education, the importance of a thorough health history, and the ethical concerns surrounding both the growing trend of online prescriptions without proper health assessments and use of GLP-1 RAs by adolescents. A key takeaway is the need for holistic care—including psychological support—to ensure that weight loss interventions do not lead to unintended harm. Read the related article, “The physiologic and psychologic effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists” in the September issue of Nursing2025. Transcript

Episode 358 of RevolutionZ has Arash Kolahi and Alexandria Shaner talk about alternative media aims and pursuits, and the state of the left. Having just published a comprehensive, transparent annual report for ZNetwork.org, Arash and Alexandria invite you to shape what their project does next. They explain how a volunteer‑heavy media project doubled its reach through smart syndication, built community spaces that actually talk back, and launched tools that help people act, not just read.No clickbait pivots. No sanding down radical edges to appease algorithms. Instead, a they explain their “guerrilla outreach” strategy that puts movement analysis, strategy, and vision in front of new audiences on platforms like MSN and Flipboard while keeping the full, uncensored archive at znetwork.org for everyone's easy access. Our conversation breaks down the nuts and bolts—how to jump into Discord, what the annual report reveals about budgets and priorities, and what concrete projects your support accelerates including a powerful new site search for 70,000+ articles, short-form explainers that invite deeper dives, an interactive map of Gaza solidarity encampments, and the All of Us Directory that is built to connect potential volunteers to any of hundreds of groups and projects that welcome help, earchable by skills and location.We also discuss the emotional stakes in our chaotic times for media and everyone. Fear isn't just background noise—it's the government's business model. That's why Arash and Alexandria advocate for “critical hope,” a practice rooted in analysis and collective action, and  for “social self‑defense,” a movement strategy to resist authoritarianism while building the world we want. If you've felt stuck between outrage and burnout, this conversation offers a framework and real next steps one can take. Read the report, join the conversation, and tell Z what tools would help you organize where you are.If Arash and Alexandria communicate to you, resonate for you, please share their episode with a friend, subscribe on ZNetwork for updates, consider donating via their site at ZNetwork.org to help aid them, or via Patreon for RevolutionZ as our new donations will go to them too.

“Chemotherapy-induced alopecia does cause a lot of stress. It's associated with lower quality of life. Scalp cooling may really help improve quality of life. Some studies have shown that women in the scalp cooling group felt less upset about losing their hair and less dissatisfied with their appearance compared to the women in the control group that didn't receive any scalp cooling. So a lot of these studies are showing it does have a very positive impact on psychosocial feelings and side effects in relation to overall cancer treatment,” ONS member Jaclyn Andronico, MSN, CNS, OCN®, AOCNS®, clinical nurse specialist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York, NY, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about chemotherapy-induced alopecia and scalp cooling.

Highlights From This Episode “Some of the classes that are high risk for chemotherapy-induced alopecia can include antitumor antibiotics, such as doxorubicin, epirubicin; antimicrotubule drugs, such as taxanes like docetaxel, paclitaxel; alkylating agents such as cyclophosphamide. The lower risk alopecia-causing chemo agents are the antimetabolite classes, which a lot of people know as gemcitabine or fluorouracil. We also are seeing patients experience some degree of alopecia with a drug called sacituzumab govitecan, which is an actual antibody–drug conjugate.” TS 2:09 “Scalp cooling is approved for solid tumor patients. Patients receiving chemotherapy agents, as we discussed before, with that high incidence of chemotherapy-induced alopecia really should be considered for scalp cooling as long as they don't have certain contraindications. Some contraindications do exist for these populations. Those are patients that have cold agglutinin diseases, cryoglobulinemia, cryofibrinogenemia, and any cold sensitivity issues. Patients also with abnormal liver functions are not suggested to receive scalp cooling because their liver function is associated with the metabolism of the drug agent. It's also not recommended for patients with hematologic malignancies who are higher risk for cutaneous metastatic disease or failed chemotherapy and even reduced survival rates.” TS 9:23 “Overall, scalp cooling has a good tolerance, but it's important to be aware that scalp cooling can be uncomfortable for some, and it isn't always tolerated by some patients. Patients have reported side effects such as headaches, dizziness, chills, cold sensations, scalp pain, head discomfort, and even claustrophobia. Among these, the most common is the cold feeling and headaches. So when caring for patients that undergo scalp cooling, the nurses really should recognize the patient's feelings and help relieve that discomfort with position changes, prophylactic painkillers such as [acetaminophen] or [ibuprofen] if they're allowed to take that, additional warm blankets. Even antianxiety medications can really help, especially if that claustrophobia feeling is there. So collaborating with that team, the doctors, the nurse practitioners, just to be aware that if the patient's not comfortable during this treatment of scalp cooling, they should have those things on board prior to starting.” TS 12:23 “A lot of primary education points for nurses to review with patients is explaining the financial reimbursement process and assistance options—collaborating with that financial department within your institution. Also discussing the efficacy of the scalp cooling and the tolerability of it as well. I don't know if patients are always aware of the feeling of the cold—really warning them, letting them know what they're going to experience while in the chair attached to that cooling machine.” TS 18:55 “Nurses, we're at the forefront of scalp cooling, and we manage a lot of this area that comes with the service. They are managing, the coordination of the care, the education. They're assisting with that financial discussion and collaborating with the financial department. The symptom management—they're helping make the patients feel more comfortable with the symptoms of scalp cooling. They are the real deal here, so they are the best in helping with the situation. Nurses should be really familiar with the efficacy, again, and the tolerability, the contraindications, the side effects, and the costs and even the access for scalp cooling.” TS 20:57

I've been circling this topic for years in my personal life, and today I'm finally ready to name it out loud: what it means to center men—and the quiet, persistent ways it costs us. This isn't a takedown of men. It's a conversation about the water we swim in, how it shapes our choices, and why so many of us end up orbiting someone else's needs while abandoning our own. In this first of a two-part series, I briefly unpack the language and the lived reality—androcentrism, “woman as Other,” the male gaze, compulsory heterosexuality, and self-silencing—and connect those ideas to everyday moments in dating, marriage, work, family roles, and even how we present ourselves. I also go deeper into patriarchal bargains,something I see over and over in my own life, the lives of my clients, and most (if not all) of the women I know. I weave in my own story and experiences from clients and friends so you can spot the pattern with compassion, not self-blame. This is what you'll hear in this episode: A clear metaphor for “centering men” (the sun and orbit) and how it shows up in real life. Plain-language definitions of key terms (androcentrism, male gaze, “woman as Other,” patriarchal bargains, comphet, self-silencing). Why patriarchal bargains often feel like safety—and why the price tag grows over time. Everyday examples across dating, long-term partnership, work, family labor, and appearance. The emotional, relational, and cultural costs: confusion of identity, chronic anxiety, resentment, power imbalances, and internalized policing. How health can be impacted when self-silencing becomes a lifestyle (and why this deserves reverence, not shame). A gentle invitation to notice where you might be orbiting—and what questions to journal on before we move into solutions. Part one names the pattern and its costs so you can see it with clarity and care in your own life: centering men isn't a personal failing—it's a survival strategy many of us learned. Awareness is the first move.  In part two (in two weeks), we'll focus on solutions: how to decenter without burning your life down, rebuild self-trust and voice, and practice relational autonomy in dating, work, and partnership.  Resources from this episode: Get updates on my new book Live Like You Give a Damn (out December 9!)
