In this week's episode of Off the Cuff with Danny LoPriore, we have renowned author, TV personality director, life coach, and interventionalist, Mike Diamond. Mike has written several books on the human mindset and today Danny sits down with him to talk about how he managed to achieve success as a dyslexic person with ADHD and drug addiction after hitting rock bottom.  Listen to the podcast as both men discuss the present and reflect on their past. It's all about taking advantage of opportunities life throws at you according to Mike. It's a very frank and inspiring discussion between two individuals with similar pasts that you will surely enjoy.   “Preparation meets opportunity is luck. But if you're not prepared, you don't get the opportunity.” – Mike (31:25)   Nothing is off-limits in this episode. From Mike's drug addiction to suffering abuse at an early age, to living with ADHD, listen in as Mike provides practical advice and insights about healing your mindset which can be done in many ways including through a simple act of forgiveness.   “I'm empathizing and being compassionate for a person that didn't have the ability to self-regulate. So, I think for anyone listening for your audience and the reason I talk about in the book is that I let them know how much I suffered because of my mental health. You can regulate yourself and slow down the fight-flight and freeze and feed mode and get in the parasympathetic mode and give people a pass. Forgive them. Don't take it personally.” – Mike (47:20)   In This Episode: (01:52) – Deciding on writing a book while being dyslexic. (04:14) – Writing about dyslexic/ADHD audience.

Guest 1  Mike Diamond Television Personality, Director, Life Coach, and Interventionist. Known for his work on the hit TV shows NY Ink and Bondi Ink Tattoo Crew and author of the 7 Steps to an Unbreakable Mindset Originally from Perth, Western Australia, Mike got off to a bit of a rough start. Battling undiagnosed dyslexia, he started using drugs and alcohol at age 12. At age 16, he was expelled for Aquinas College and finished at Melville H.S.

Guest two Dr. Nancy Campbell OD: Naloxone and the Politics of Overdose For years, drug overdose was unmentionable in polite society. OD was understood to be something that took place in dark alleys—an ugly death awaiting social deviants—neither scientifically nor clinically interesting. But over the last several years, overdose prevention has become the unlikely object of a social movement, powered by the miracle drug naloxone. In OD, Nancy Campbell charts the emergence of naloxone as a technological fix for overdose and describes the remaking of overdose into an experience recognized as common, predictable, patterned—and, above all, preventable. Naloxone, which made resuscitation, rescue, and “reversal” after an overdose possible, became a tool for shifting law, policy, clinical medicine, and science toward harm reduction. Liberated from emergency room protocols and distributed in take-home kits to non-medical professionals, it also became a tool of empowerment. After recounting the prehistory of naloxone—the early treatment of OD as a problem of poisoning, the development of nalorphine (naloxone's predecessor), the idea of “reanimatology”—Campbell describes how naloxone emerged as a tool of harm reduction. She reports on naloxone use in far-flung locations that include post-Thatcherite Britain, rural New Mexico, and cities and towns in Massachusetts. Drawing on interviews with approximately sixty advocates, drug users, former users, friends, families, witnesses, clinicians, and scientists—whom she calls the “protagonists” of her story—Campbell tells a story of saving lives amid the complex, difficult conditions of an unfolding unnatural disaster
