In this powerful episode of The Live Free Podcast, Christine sits down with Blair Sorrel—a witty, refreshingly candid author who has not only lived with Schizoid Personality Disorder (SPD) but has also written a hilarious and insightful memoir about it.Growing up in the 60s and 70s, there was no diagnosis, no name for the emotional disconnection and intense inner world Blair experienced. With an emotionally distant mother and an absent father, she turned to pop culture and rock music to survive—and eventually, to thrive. It wasn't until the age of 33 that she finally received her diagnosis, a turning point that helped her make sense of her past and reframe her future.Blair describes herself as “an open book and a cautionary tale,” and in this episode, she opens up about identity, confidence, resilience, and the struggle to forge meaningful connection in a world that often misunderstands mental illness. She shares how volunteering, community engagement, and writing became powerful outlets—and how she's learned to embrace who she is on her own terms.If you've ever felt like an outsider, misunderstood, or like you had to fight for your own identity, Blair's story will resonate deeply. Her voice is a reminder that healing doesn't always look like what we expect—and that purpose and power can emerge from even the most unexpected places.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Schizoid Personality Disorder04:01 The Impact of Childhood Experiences06:57 Navigating Life with Schizoid Personality Disorder09:56 The Role of Confidence in Personal Development12:49 Overcoming Challenges through Volunteering15:37 Finding Purpose and Connection18:54 The Importance of Being Present21:43 Transforming Pain into Purpose25:01 Advice for Those Struggling with Mental Health27:54 Conclusion and ResourcesConnect With Blair: http://www.RockingTributes.comConnect With Live Free Wellness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠linktr.ee/lvfree⁠⁠

Navigating new seasons in our spiritual journey requires strength and courage, just as Joshua needed when leading Israel into the Promised Land. Growth often brings discomfort, but it's necessary for spiritual maturity. To successfully navigate these transitions, we must keep God's Word in our mouths, speaking life rather than complaints, and follow His presence even into unfamiliar territory. God sometimes ends one provision (like the manna) to move us toward something better. These challenging transitions are actually opportunities for deeper maturity and fruitfulness in our faith journey.Keep the Bible in your mouth - what we speak matters, especially during times of change and growth.Follow God's presence - just as the Israelites followed the Ark of the Covenant, we need to be led by the Spirit rather than our own preferences.When spiritual practices feel dry or stale, it may be God's way of pushing you into a new season of growth.Growth and change are often uncomfortable but necessary for spiritual maturity.Our faith is meant to be lived in community, not in isolation.Support the show

Mary Jackson - Overcoming Challenges and Being Yourself Raising kids that have special needs, like those on the Autism spectrum, can create both challenges and opportunities. Parents and teachers need to be more creative in how they communicate and teach kids, so they can learn in ways that work for them. Mary used art and music as a learning tool for her kids, using the rhythm and energy to educate them. She has watched them overcome challenges and become the best version of themselves. Kids don't need to struggle or believe that they are having problems because there is something wrong with them. They need to be empowered to try new things and go beyond what others may believe their limits are. Humans are sensory beings, and we need to tune into our own abilities. There is a balance in life that we can use to achieve happier, better lives! Join us, as Mary makes us question our own past experiences and shows how her lessons can help empower us all! www.AutismTN.org www.MaryEJackson.com Email: Mary@MaryEJackson.com Sponsors: American Gold Exchange Our dealer for precious metals & the exclusive dealer of Real Power Family silver rounds (which we finally got in!!!).

From building high-performing sales teams to balancing family life with professional growth, Brian shares insights on staying focused on “dollar productive activities” while cultivating a thriving culture and personal connections.Key TakeawaysDollar Productive ActivityBrian highlights how his early sales training around focusing on dollar-productive activities shaped both his professional and personal life. Whether closing sales or spending time with family, being intentional about high-value actions drives long-term results.CRM & Sales Process DisciplineDespite not being a “detail person,” Brian leans into CRM tools to manage opportunities, categorize customers, and keep sales teams accountable. He stresses that if you can keep all your prospects in your head, you're probably not doing enough activity.Scaling Teams & Building CultureGrowing from 7 to 40 team members in just a few years, Brian explains the importance of cadences—regular meetings, onboarding processes, and tough conversations to ensure cultural fit. Creating a space where passion aligns with purpose is essential for sustained success.Intentional Family TimeFrom playing chess with his son to CrossFit dates with his wife, Brian describes how intentionality extends beyond business into marriage and parenting. Simple, consistent actions—like Mark's “Daily Brief” practice with his wife—can have an outsized impact on relationships.Overcoming Challenges & WinsLeaving a long-term role in feed and forging into tech was one of Brian's toughest decisions, but it led to new opportunities and career wins. He shares stories of closing dairies of vastly different sizes and how objections become lessons when leveraged correctly.Books That Shape LeadershipBrian recommends Unreasonable Hospitality by Will Guidara for transforming customer experience and Moneyball by Michael Lewis as a lesson in data-driven strategy and out-of-the-box thinking.Notable Quotes“What are you doing today that's truly driving toward the results you want?” – Brian Sanford“If you can keep your sales leads in your head, you're probably not doing enough activity.” – Brian Sanford“Sometimes the best thing you can do for culture is have the tough conversation: is this the right fit for you?” – Brian Sanford“Fear of letting go often costs more in money, time, and energy than the tough decision itself.” – Mark JewellAction StepsEvaluate your daily activities: are they “dollar productive”?Create intentional practices in your personal life (like shared activities or daily check-ins).Review your CRM discipline—are you documenting and leveraging your conversations effectively?Don't shy away from tough conversations when scaling a team.Consider reading Unreasonable Hospitality and Moneyball to reframe customer experience and strategic leadership.Listen If You AreA sales leader in agriculture or ag techAn entrepreneur growing a high-performing teamA professional balancing leadership with family lifeSomeone looking to refine both...

“Prepping for the GMAT was one of the biggest, most self-motivated projects of my adult life. It gave me concrete feedback I hadn't experienced in years. Improvement wasn't visible every day, but I could see how my effort turned into results.” In this episode of Inside the GMAT, GMAC Zach sits down with Julia Shackelford, who earned a perfect GMAT score of 805, but insists the real story is everything behind the number. Julia shares how months of disciplined practice, self-reflection, and resilience transformed not only her test performance but also her confidence in tackling challenges far beyond the GMAT. Together, Zach and Julia explore what it really takes to succeed on the GMAT, why natural ability matters less than consistent effort, and how shifting your focus from outcomes to process can change the way you see yourself. About Our Guest: Julia earned a BBA in Finance from the University of Arkansas in 2015 and spent the following nine years in banking, where she focused on lending, business development, training, and compliance. She now specializes in helping students excel on exams like the GMAT. She hopes to use what she learned through preparing for her own exam to improve the experience of other students.  Explore GMAT Prep: https://www.mba.com/gmat-exam-prep Register for the GMAT: https://www.mba.com/exams/gmat-exam/register Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GMATbyGMAC Chapters: 00:00 Introduction to the Journey 01:44 The Process Behind the Perfect Score 03:22 Mindset and Self-Discovery 05:48 Overcoming Challenges and Setbacks 07:55 The Importance of Self-Compassion 10:18 Redefining Success 12:21 Learning and Growth Through Preparation 15:00 Balancing Study and Life 17:25 Tools and Techniques for Effective Studying 19:54 Reflection and Course Correction 22:25 Advice for Future Test Takers 24:33 Final Thoughts on Success and Happiness

There's something about music that cuts deeper than words alone. A single lyric, a familiar melody, or even the rhythm of a beat can stir memories we thought were long forgotten and awaken parts of ourselves we may have buried. It reminds us of who we were before the chaos, before the pain, before substances clouded our vision.  Pursuing our favorite hobbies before substance use can be a lifeline back to our core, a way of reclaiming the truest version of ourselves. Listen in as our guest this week shares how he turned his lifelong passion into purpose and found a way back home to himself. Skyler Ray was born on November 28, 1990, in San Jose, California. He grew up in foster homes and spent multiple years homeless—going from being locked up to sleeping on the sidewalks of downtown Portland. His music is deeply rooted in his life experiences, including addiction, incarceration, and homelessness. He is a firm believer in spreading hope and giving back to the community he once helped destroy. Since being released from prison on November 30, 2018, Skyler has refocused on his music and is determined to share his message with the world. He continues to live in Portland, Oregon, and remains clean and sober. In this conversation, Jamie Demeris and Skyler Ray discuss what it really takes to rebuild a life after addiction. Together, they explore the mindset shifts that turn relapse into resilience, why consistency and small steps matter more than giant leaps, and how reconnecting with your passions can anchor you in sobriety.  Skyler shares how music became both his therapy and his message, and why vulnerability and self-respect are the foundation of lasting recovery. Whether you're in recovery, supporting a loved one, or just searching for hope, this conversation will remind you that transformation is always possible. Topics Discussed: The importance of continuously working on yourself  Why relapse isn't a step back and how you can stand up stronger  Pursuing your passions and who you are at your core in sobriety Why small, consistent steps make the most impact Reconnecting with your why & remembering who you were before substances Learning to love and respect yourself — CHAPTERS:  ​​0:00 Introduction to Positive Recovery MD 01:10 Meet Skylar Ray: From Addiction to Recovery 02:16 Skylar's Battle with Addiction 03:56 Turning Point: Embracing Music and Sobriety 12:50 The Road to Recovery Tour 19:35 Overcoming Disbelief and Embracing Change 22:54 Climbing the Corporate Ladder 23:43 A Humbling Demotion 24:17 Prison Reflections and Personal Growth 26:22 Musical Journey and Personal Transformation 29:14 The Power of Sound and Recovery 33:23 Chasing Dreams and Overcoming Challenges 40:33 Tour Dates and Final Thoughts — Connect with Skyler Ray:  Road to Recovery Tour: https://www.officialskylerray.com/road-to-recovery-tour  Website: www.officialskylerray.com  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/therealSkylerRay  — Connect with PRC on Social: IG: https://www.instagram.com/positiverecoverycenters  FB: https://www.facebook.com/PositiveRecoveryCenters  TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@positiverecoverycenter  LI: https://www.linkedin.com/company/positiverecoverycenters  YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4JcDF1gjlYch4V4iBbCgZg   Want even more expert insights and support on the recovery journey?
