Today I speak with a father who lost his son Heston to suicide June 7, 2020"Andy Campbell's new book, Overcoming Life's Toughest Setbacks, distills his 15 core beliefs that helped him keep going when life didn't let up. His lens is earned: childhood sexual abuse and bullying, losing his mother young, estrangement from his father, a diagnosis of stage-4 pancreatic cancer with multiple surgeries and chemo, and the death of his youngest son by suicide. The result is a practical, no-nonsense approach—favoring humility, clear thinking, focused work, relentless curiosity, perseverance, and finishing what you start. Andy writes and speaks for people who are exhausted, hurting, and still trying, offering a framework you can reach for when you need steadiness. He lives with his wife and stays closely connected to his three adult children."More at askandycampbell.com.His Book: Overcoming Life's Toughest SetbacksIn this episode: we walk through key ideas from the book and talk about Andy's son, Heston (age 18) how he and his family has been processing their loss since his passing. We get a peek at Andy's father's-eye view of resilience and what surviving—and continuing to live with meaning—looks like now. He discusses his 15 core beliefs and how they are the guideposts he's documented (first for himself and now in his book) that have provided a path to continue forward. He shares his "why" is to share these beliefs with real life examples as a possibility they will encourage someone that they too can continue in spite of the grief -- feel it completely but still move through it.Support the show__________________________________________________________________________

The conversation explores not only the grit and technology behind adaptive sports and modern prosthetics, but also the emotional landscape of recovery, mentorship, and finding purpose after trauma.

The boulder in your path might be hiding a treasure underneath. In this thought-provoking episode, Danny Mac shares a timeless parable about a curious king who placed a massive rock in the main road to his kingdom. While wealthy merchants and wise men simply walked around the obstacle, complaining loudly about the inconvenience, one humble peasant chose a different approach. Through persistent effort, he removed the boulder—and discovered a purse of gold coins left as a reward by the watching king.This simple story brilliantly illuminates how we typically respond to life's challenges. Do we complain about our problems? Blame others? Try to ignore them? Or do we face them directly, putting in the necessary effort to overcome them? Danny connects this parable to the wisdom found in James 1:2, which encourages us to view troubles as opportunities for growth rather than mere frustrations to avoid.What obstacles are you currently facing? Rather than seeing them as roadblocks to your happiness, Danny invites you to reframe them as essential stepping stones to your personal development. Every problem contains the seeds of growth— your willingness to face challenges head-on might lead to unexpected rewards. Start your day right by approaching obstacles with determination and faith, knowing that each one you overcome equips you with strength for whatever lies ahead. We would love to hear your comments.

Andy Campbell's story will stop you in your tracks.After surviving childhood sexual abuse, losing his mother to cancer, battling stage 4 pancreatic cancer (which he has now survived for nearly seven years against all odds), and enduring the devastating loss of his son to suicide, Andy has earned the right to speak about resilience in a way few others can.The most profound moment in our conversation comes when Andy describes his cancer diagnosis. Having watched his mother and three aunts die from cancer, he had spent years preparing for what he thought would be inevitable, only to be blindsided by pancreatic cancer instead. In that moment of complete helplessness, Andy discovered something unexpected: freedom. "The recognition that I had no control over it was probably the most freeing moment in my life," he shares.What sets this conversation apart is Andy's practical approach to resilience. He describes developing "core beliefs" that function like a computer's BIOS - fundamental operating instructions that kick in when all else fails. These beliefs, which he's compiled in his book "Overcoming Life's Toughest Setbacks," serve as a default network during times when clear thinking is impossible.Perhaps most moving is Andy's reason for sharing his story. Not to showcase his strength, but to reach someone who might be contemplating giving up. "I have been broken, I have been beaten, I have been down on my knees. Honest to God, some days I don't know how I'm still here, but if I can do it, you can do it."Visit askandycampbell.com to learn more about Andy's journey and his approach to transforming life's greatest challenges into opportunities for growth and connection.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bereaved-but-still-me--2108929/support.

What if the real reason you feel stuck isn't a lack of willpower—but a mindset wired for protection instead of transformation?In this episode, Louise and I explore why real, lasting change doesn't come from willpower alone—it comes from being system-focused. We dive into how nervous system regulation, mindset, and internal alignment are essential for transformation in any area of life: health, relationships, and self-worth.I open up about what it takes to ignore external noise and connect with your inner truth, and how beliefs drive behavior far more than we realize. We also talk about the daily practices—like internal reflection and gratitude—that can shift us out of protection mode and into the safety needed for deep, lasting change.If you've ever felt stuck, misunderstood, or frustrated with repeated setbacks, this conversation will help you reconnect with your power and see that transformation isn't just possible—it's inevitable when you work with your system, not against it.Topics Covered:Transformative Health Journeys Through System Focus Over OutcomesOvercoming Adversity: A Journey from Injury to EmpowermentDiscovering Inner Intuition Through Silence and Self-ReflectionTrusting Inner Wisdom and Exploring Alternative Health SolutionsThe Power of Self-Belief in Overcoming Life's ChallengesHarnessing Gratitude and Meditation for Personal GrowthTransforming Mindset for Achieving Personal and Health GoalsConnecting With Sherry Shaban and Louise Digby OnlineIf you've ever felt like food has power over you, I hope this conversation brings you comfort and inspiration. You're not alone, and healing is possible.If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right—eating well, exercising, pushing yourself—but your body just won't let go of fat, there's a reason.Your nervous system is either in Protection Mode (fight-or-flight) or Safety Mode (rest-and-digest)—and fat release only happens in Safety Mode. But if your body feels unsafe? It clings to fat, slows metabolism, and even triggers binge eating and self-sabotage.Think about it. You go through stress, and suddenly you're reaching for food you swore you wouldn't touch. You're not weak—it's biology. When your body is in survival mode, it's wired to conserve energy and seek quick fuel. That's why unwanted eating behaviors feel so out of control sometimes.But here's the kicker: fat loss isn't just about burning calories—it's about making your body feel safe enough to let go.So the real question is—are you pushing your body into Protection Mode without even realizing it? Because if you are, no amount of dieting or exercise is going to override survival mode.It's time to stop fighting your body and start working with it.So if you're ready to Break Free from Emotional and Binge Eating, download my FREE eBook: Calm the Craving: 7 Steps to Break the Emotional and Binge Eating Battle.In this guide, you'll learn how to regulate your nervous system to eliminate cravings, make peace with food, and allow the weight to naturally release itself.Download your free copy here: www.sherryshaban.com/calmYou deserve to experience food freedom, I can't wait to see you inside!Listen to more episodes at www.makepeacewithfood.com/podcast or subscribe to me on Spotify, iTunes, and YouTube so you never miss an episode!Join my Facebook Community here: www.myfoodfreedomlifestyle.comWork with me: www.sherryshaban.com/transformWant to go deeper?

When Life Breaks You: Overcoming Life's Toughest Setbacks with Andy Campbell Supporting you through addiction's shadows Feel empowered, regain happiness, and know you're not alone in our supportive community.
When life suddenly changes, it can feel like everything is falling apart. You might wonder, Where do I find the strength to keep going? Resilience is about finding that courage inside yourself to face the hardest moments and keep moving forward no matter what. In this episode of Actions Antidotes, we are joined by Kijuan Amey, founder of Amey Motivation—a U.S. Air Force veteran, speaker, author, and resilience coach who shares his powerful story of resilience following a life-changing motorcycle accident. Kijuan recounts his background in the Air Force, his transition to civilian life, and the fateful day in May 2017 that altered his life's trajectory. He discusses the immediate aftermath of his accident, the extensive medical procedures and recovery process, and how he overcame the physical and emotional challenges to regain his sense of self-worth and purpose. Kijuan's journey from being in a medically induced coma to becoming a motivational speaker and author of Don't Focus on Why Me offers valuable lessons on resilience, the importance of a supportive mindset, and finding direction after a dramatic life event. If you've ever faced a major setback or want to build your ability to bounce back from life's ups and downs, this episode is for you. --- Listen to the podcast here: Resilience and Triumph: Overcoming Life-Altering Challenges with Kijuan Amey Welcome to Action's Antidotes, your antidote to the mindset that keeps you settling for less. Today, I want to talk to you all about resilience, and resilience can mean a lot of different things, but if you go about your life long enough, eventually, you'll have some sort of event, some sort of event happen to you, whether it be something like losing a job, losing a key family member, losing a good friend, and, in this particular case, an accident that can happen anytime you're going about your day to day life that can really change your life's trajectory. My guest today is Kijuan Amey and he has a story about an accident as well and his resilience around it. He is an Air Force veteran and a motivational speaker. --- Kijuan, welcome to the program. Thank you so much for having me here, Stephen. I truly appreciate you having me on to speak about my story on your platform. Well, thank you for your willingness to share your story with my audience. I know we're all trying to be better people in one way or another or trying to achieve something, and it is a real big deal when something specific happens to you, so tell us a little bit about where your story begins. This was May 5, 2017. I was, at the time, in the United States Air Force Reserve. I did four years active and I said, “I'm done with this.” I wanted to get away from that lifestyle, shall I say. And I think I made the best choice for me, personally. Other people, they love the active duty world, but I made the best decision for my life, and then not only just to be a reservist but to also go to school full time so I was pursuing my bachelor's degree because I also wanted to become a pilot ultimately, and the job that I was doing in the Air Force was in-flight refueling and that's where you refuel planes in midair. Amazing. To me, hands down, I think the best enlisted job I've ever heard. I don't care what anybody says. So just amazing to see another plane fly up to you, right behind you as you're flying in the air and you can refuel them, and I just call it a flying gas station, basically. So, quickly, how did that work? Because I'm trying to picture it in my head now, the idea that one plane is flying and another one is kind of coming up. Does someone have to actually jump out of the airplane and connect it the way we fill up our cars at the gas station? Yeah, no, if we had army guys on the plane, we would make them do that. But, no, we don't do that. Okay. Yeah, no, so we have this thing we call the boom and what you do is you lower it,

Why We Need Spiritual Brain SurgeryToday, I'm sharing thoughts inspired by a fallen tree, a blocked road, and the search for a new path forward after unexpected calamity.

In this engaging episode of "Shark Theory," hosted by Baylor Barbee, listeners are invited to explore the challenges and solutions related to overcoming life's ruts. As we approach the midpoint of the year, many find themselves grappling with feelings of stagnation and a plateau in progress. Baylor sheds light on recognizing such states and provides practical strategies to break free from them. Focusing on two pivotal questions— "Who am I?" and "What am I doing next?"—Baylor guides listeners through a self-reflective journey essential for personal and professional growth. These themes strike a universal chord, applicable to individuals at every level of personal and corporate journeys. Whether you're a CEO contemplating the next chapter or an entry-level worker aspiring to rise, understanding your identity and future direction is key. Key Takeaways: Recognizing you're in a rut is the first step to overcoming it; awareness is empowerment. Define your identity and pinpoint your current life status to effectively map out your future. Honest self-assessment is critical to personal growth, focusing on integrity and authenticity. Developing a basic plan, rather than an exhaustive roadmap, aids in regaining direction. Strong personal foundations, established through introspection, support sustainable growth. Notable Quotes: "You're not alone right now if you're in a situation where you feel like you're in a rut." "You have to figure out what that anchor is in your life." "If you can figure out who you are and then get a semblance of where it is you're trying to go, you start to then move out of that rut." "Be honest with yourself, at least about where you're at. And then you can start to grow from there." "In some area of our life, all of us are in a rut. Now, we're not all in a rut in every area, but think about the area where you feel like you're making the least amount of progress."

In this episode, I'm joined by two incredible voices, Big Sean and Devi Brown, for a deeply impactful conversation at the Wellness Oasis about purpose, patience, and positivity. We dive into what it really means to be successful—beyond money and accolades—and how to embrace adversity as the foundation of growth. Big Sean shares personal stories about overcoming fear, building inner strength, and why he's so passionate about creativity and self-expression. Devi offers profound insights on the importance of harmony over balance and the power of setting boundaries. This conversation is packed with practical takeaways: how to turn fear into freedom, why accountability is your greatest superpower, and why positivity needs better marketing in today's world. I left this talk energized and inspired, and I know you will too. Whether you're an entrepreneur, a parent, or just looking for clarity, this episode has something for you. Don't miss this one—it's all about growth, gratitude, and stepping into your higher self.
