What does it take to turn a life of chaos into one of purpose and impact? In this episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius sits down with Andre Norman, author, speaker, and transformational leader whose journey from maximum-security prison to Harvard University is nothing short of extraordinary. Andre opens up about the pivotal moments that changed his trajectory, from leading a prison gang to realizing he was built for something greater. He shares how education, faith, and the right mentors helped him rebuild his mindset and redirect his drive toward helping others do the same. Throughout the conversation, Andre and Darius explore the real meaning of redemption, why self-awareness is key to change, and how people can break free from their environments, no matter how deep the hole seems.

Branch Basics Co-Founder Allison Evans shares the story behind one of today's fastest-growing human-safe cleaning brands—serving 240,000+ households and generating $50M annually. What began as Allison's search for answers to debilitating chronic pain in college became the blueprint for a mission-driven company rooted in integrity and transparency. But at the height of early success—$2M in revenue, nine employees, and a passionate customer base—Allison and her co-founders made an unthinkable call: shutting the company down after discovering they couldn't verify a key ingredient in their hero product. In this conversation, Allison walks through the shame, backlash, and financial fallout of that decision—while pregnant—along with the 18-month rebuild that followed. From becoming accidental chemists to restoring customer trust to scaling into 600+ Target stores, her story is a case study in resilience and values-driven leadership. It's the founder dilemma no one talks about: when doing the right thing means risking everything. Key Takeaways and Topics The chronic health crisis that sparked Allison's mission toward toxin-free living The early growth of Branch Basics—and the ingredient controversy that halted it Navigating public criticism, refunds, layoffs, and an IRS audit simultaneously Rebuilding from scratch: 100+ reformulation attempts and finding the right partners How transparency, community, and mission made a comeback possible The mindset shift required to lead through shame, uncertainty, and pregnancy The role of content and education in driving long-term customer loyalty Lessons on partnership, boundaries, and sustainable founder capacity The Failure Factor Podcast was brought to you by Off The Field Coaching.

Hamas Reemerges in Southern Syria Near Golan Heights — John Batchelor, Bill Roggio, Akmed Sharawari — Sharawari reports that Hamas has been systematically rebuilding military infrastructure in southern Syria, reportedly coordinating with Lebanese Muslim Brotherhood networks operating near the Golan Heights in the village of Bei Jin. Roggio notes that Syria's new government under Shara is unlikely to conduct forceful suppression operations due to widespread domestic sympathy for Palestinian causes among the Syrian population. Batchelor emphasizes that Israel'sstrategic position on Mount Hermon provides significant tactical advantage against threats originating from both Syriaand Lebanon, enabling rapid response to emerging security threats. 1500

Show Notes: Disaster as a MirrorEpisode Summary:In this episode of the Emergency Management Network, hosts Todd DeVoe and Dan Scott explore one of the most revealing truths in our field: disasters don't introduce new problems—they expose the ones already there. A hurricane, a wildfire, a blackout, a pandemic: each becomes a mirror reflecting the strengths, weaknesses, inequities, and blind spots embedded in our communities long before impact.Todd and Dan trace this phenomenon through the research of Daniel Aldrich and others, connecting social vulnerability, infrastructure choices, governance failures, and community cohesion to the wildly different outcomes disasters produce. They discuss why disasters disproportionately affect specific populations, how historic policy decisions echo across decades, and what emergency managers must confront when the mirror shows us something we'd rather ignore.The conversation blends field experience, research, and a reflective “Garage Philosopher” edge—challenging listeners to consider what disasters reveal not just about our systems, but about ourselves.Topics Covered:Disasters as amplifiers: Hazards don't treat everyone equally; they magnify pre-existing inequities.Social vulnerability & history: How redlining, disinvestment, and infrastructure neglect play out during crisis.Daniel Aldrich's research: Why social capital predicts survival and recovery better than physical infrastructure alone.Systemic exposure: How disasters spotlight policy failures, brittle systems, and governance gaps we tolerate in “blue-sky” time.Operational implications: EM must acknowledge that preparedness and resilience are shaped by long-term societal conditions, not last-minute planning.Moral visibility: Disasters reveal whose voices get prioritized, whose neighborhoods get rebuilt, and who gets left waiting.Rebuilding with honesty: Using the mirror constructively—community engagement, equity-centered planning, and revisiting assumptions.Quotable Moment:“A disaster doesn't break a community—it shows where the cracks already were.” This is a public episode.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with transformational coach Karen R. F. Mitchell to unpack what it really means to choose healing in a world that keeps asking women to shrink. This is not about cute quotes or bypassing trauma. It is about facing the moment you realize you no longer recognize yourself and deciding to come home to the woman you were before the hurt. Karen breaks down how women drift into survival mode through motherhood, relationships, and unhealed trauma. She explains why healing is an intentional choice, how forgiveness and sovereignty work together, and why peace and self trust are non negotiable in everyday life. If you are done people pleasing and ready to stop acting like a chicken when you know you are an eagle, this conversation will challenge you to reclaim your voice, your boundaries, and your throne. About The Guest : Karen R. F. Mitchell is a transformational life coach and founder of The DOE Tribe. Daughters of Enlightenment, a movement for women who are ready to move from survival to sovereignty. Her work blends embodiment, positive psychology, identity reclamation, and generational healing. She also hosts The Empress Lioness podcast where she teaches women to stop shrinking, own their inner lioness, and sit confidently on their rightful throne in life and relationships. Key Takeaways : Healing is not automatic. It is a conscious choice to stop carrying emotional baggage and finally look at what is hurting beneath the surface. The first step out of survival mode is to pause, breathe, look yourself in the mirror, and honestly admit where you lost yourself in motherhood, relationships, or trauma. Real healing and forgiveness go hand in hand. You cannot move forward without forgiving others and yourself, even if they never admit the harm. Sovereignty in daily life looks like inner peace, strong boundaries, and refusing to let other people's moods or opinions control your emotional state. Meditation is a practical tool to quiet mental chaos, hear your own inner guidance, and reconnect with a higher source. Every woman has an inner empress and lioness. Rebuilding self trust starts when you stop shrinking to fit in and decide to take your seat on your own throne. Connect With The Guest : Listeners can connect with Karen R. F. Mitchell here.

Elise Buie is the founder and CEO of Elise Buie Family Law in Seattle, Washington. After losing everything in Hurricane Katrina, she rebuilt her life and career from scratch, bringing lessons in resilience and New Orleans hospitality to her practice. Elise is a passionate and creative family law attorney who has lived the life you're living now, juggling the endless tasks of a lawyer and law firm owner while dreaming of something better. She grew her firm from six figures to multiple seven figures, navigating the pandemic and intentionally scaling back to ensure the firm operates with healthy numbers and a culturally aligned team. WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS EPISODE ABOUT BUILDING A PROFITABLE LAW FIRM WITHOUT BURNING OUT YOUR TEAM Most law firms measure success by billable hours and revenue growth. But what if the path to profitability runs through shorter workweeks, lower billable targets, and generous budgets for client gifts? Elise Buie grew a family law practice from six figures to multiple seven figures while implementing policies that sound counterintuitive. Attorneys bill around 1,200 hours annually. Paralegals work 30-hour weeks while getting paid for 40. Team members receive bonuses for "unreasonable hospitality" rather than billing more hours. The firm maintains 30% profit margins with a three-times return on investment per employee, proving that you don't need to run your team into the ground to build a successful practice. In this episode of The Lawyer's Edge podcast, Elise Holtzman speaks with Elise Buie about building a profitable law firm without sacrificing what matters most, including how to delegate effectively, why emotional intelligence is critical in family law, and what it really takes to create a culture where people bring their best selves to work. 2:32 - Rebuilding after Hurricane Katrina and how COVID tested the firm 5:39 - What unreasonable hospitality means and why it matters 8:49 - Why the firm bonuses people for client delight, not billable hours 11:48 - Hiring for alignment and emotional intelligence 13:30 - Why the firm turns away most applicants to find the right fit 16:56 - How the firm stays profitable with attorneys billing 1,200 hours a year 18:09 - Running the business by the numbers while keeping reduced hours 21:30 - Where the business knowledge came from (hint: lots of studying) 23:04 - Why daily data dashboards reveal problems before they become crises 26:14 - Why delegated work doesn't have to be perfect to be valuable Mentioned In Scaling With Soul: Building a Profitable Law Firm Without Burning Out Your Team Unreasonable Hospitality by Will Guidara Elise Buie Family Law Group | LinkedIn Elise Buie on LinkedIn Get connected with the coaching team: hello@thelawyersedge.com The Lawyer's Edge SPONSOR FOR THIS EPISODE Today's episode is brought to you by the Ignite Women's Business Development Accelerator, a 9-month business development program created BY women lawyers for women lawyers.

This week, the GovNavigators sit down with Sairah Ijaz, Managing Director at Celonis and former federal CIO to talk about her path from a GS-5 intern with a clipboard to one of the most influential technology executives in government.Sairah shares how early roles at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Social Security Administration, and GAO shaped her obsession with process improvement, and why that made her move to Celonis such a natural next step. She reflects on major transitions at HUD, including financial system migrations, data-driven decision-making, and the sometimes chaotic reality of inheriting undocumented processes and shrinking institutional knowledge.The conversation dives deep on where AI is actually delivering value in government (and where it isn't), how agencies can operationalize AI in back-office functions, and why understanding real workflows is essential to transforming federal operations, especially in a moment of leadership churn and rapid change.Show Notes:Genesis Mission: EOAGA: CFO SurveyWhat's on the GovNavigators Radar:Dec 1-3: PSC Vision ConferenceDec 4-5: ACT-IAC's in DC

After another crazy-making loss to the Miami Dolphins, Who Dats are really left picking through the wreckage of the season to wonder - what, if anything, is getting better?
Have you ever reached a point where burnout reshaped your sense of who you are and what you want next in life? In this episode, we explore the tender, transformative journey that so many people move through when they decide to train as a coach after experiencing burnout. This conversation matters because burnout rarely leaves life untouched. It rewires priorities, reframes identity, and forces us to acknowledge that our wellbeing is the most important asset we have. Throughout the discussion, we reflect on why individuals arrive at coach training following burnout and what they discover about themselves in the process. We talk about the shift from depletion to purpose, the desire to reconnect with meaning, and the way burnout creates fertile ground for growth once we begin to resource ourselves again. We acknowledge how disorientating burnout can be. It can feel frightening and destabilising, yet it can also illuminate our non-negotiables and reveal the parts of life that need to change. As we explore this, we share how coaching becomes a powerful pathway towards rebuilding confidence, rediscovering identity, and reconnecting with values. We dive into the emotional experience behind this choice. Many people arrive having encountered support through counselling, therapy, mentoring or coaching, realising that they want to help others in the same way they have been supported. Others arrive because their old world no longer fits who they have become. They do not return to their pre burnout life because it no longer feels like home. Coaching offers a forward focused space where they can shape what comes next. Throughout the episode, we reflect on the deep sense of safety and acceptance within the coaching community. We talk about how shame often accompanies burnout and how that shame is released when individuals step into an environment where life experience is valued rather than judged. We explore how coaching training becomes a healing process. Not always intentionally so, but in practice it reconnects people with the belief that they are enough. It helps them see themselves with compassion rather than criticism. It builds emotional honesty, self-awareness, and a renewed sense of possibility. We also reflect on how passion and purpose must be channelled with awareness. Burnout can occur in work that is deeply meaningful as well as work that is unfulfilling. Coaching training helps individuals see where their needs are not being met, where boundaries must shift, and how systemic pressures may be influencing their wellbeing. This episode is an invitation to anyone who has experienced burnout to consider how that experience might become a catalyst for growth.

Passion driven individuals are at risk of burnout, and coaching skills help them understand and manage their needs. Coaching offers a future focused path that helps people move forward when returning to old roles no longer feels possible. Self awareness, emotional honesty and compassion are key outcomes of coach training after burnout. Life experience becomes a powerful asset within the coaching profession, not a limitation.

What started as a dream to build better neighborhoods has become a mission to restore both people and the planet through God's design for community. Tyler opens up about his powerful story of addiction, including a near-death experience from a meth overdose and years of alcoholism that led him to complete surrender. He shares how God redeemed his life and inspired him to create Eden Ranch—where faith, wellness, and connection come together to cultivate real freedom and purpose. This inspiring conversation reminds us that recovery isn't just about getting clean—it's about restoration, stewardship, and living in alignment with the way God intended.

What happens when the life you built can no longer hold who you're becoming?In this raw and luminous conversation, Aideen sits down with Kanika Vasudeva, energy coach, strategist, and truth-teller, to explore the transformation that began with a private unraveling: a business losing momentum, a marriage dissolving, and the unimaginable grief of stillbirth. What followed wasn't a quick reinvention, but a clearing. Years of inner work. Training in energy healing. Leaving misaligned relationships. Rebuilding wealth from resonance, not performance. In this episode, Kanika shares how grief became a doorway to truthful visibility, sovereign boundaries, and pricing that honors your energy.We explore: • Moving from guilt and grief to guidance, permission, and power • Leaving misaligned relationships and rebuilding self-trust • Redefining visibility through self-knowing, energy, and resonance • Why “pricing as truth-telling” changes client outcomes • Baby-step leadership: becoming the lighthouse without forcing the tideThis episode offers a more human roadmap: begin with your energy, honor what lights you up, and build slowly from inner truth outward.

In this short segment of the Revenue Builders Podcast, we revisit the discussion with Dean Otto, a top-performing enterprise sales rep whose life changed in an instant after being struck by a vehicle while cycling. Given a 2% chance of ever walking again, Dean went on to run a half-marathon just one year later—alongside the man who hit him and the neurosurgeon who operated on him.Through forgiveness, faith, relentless work, and a refusal to isolate, Dean rebuilt not only his body but also a powerful community around him. In this clip, he shares the inside story of meeting the driver, reconciling in the hospital, training against all odds, and ultimately proving what grit and connection can achieve. This excerpt is a masterclass in resilience, leadership, and the compounding power of not going through adversity alone.KEY TAKEAWAYS[00:00:29] The accident that changed everything.Dean's 2% chance of walking again and the comeback mission it sparked.[00:01:14] Forgiveness before reconciliation.Dean had forgiven the driver before ever meeting him — a testament to emotional and spiritual maturity.[00:02:02] Will, the driver, reaches out.The surprising request from the man who hit Dean and how that meeting turned into a two-hour connection.[00:03:21] Rebuilding relationships through shared struggle.Dean, Will, and their families build deep bonds and ultimately commit to running together.[00:03:53] Viral impact & platform responsibility.How Dean's story went viral and why he shifted the focus to helping other spinal cord patients.[00:04:52] Returning to work despite severe injury.Balancing recovery with career identity — including Dean closing deals from his hospital bed.[00:06:21] A doctor becomes a runner.Dean's neurosurgeon trains for his own half marathon to stand beside his patient.[00:07:52] Integrity and sacrifice.Will joins the race despite a heart condition, symbolizing commitment far beyond obligation.[00:09:48] A race about more than racing.Dean breaks two hours by five seconds, proving to himself and others what's possible after trauma.[00:10:24] Going back for your people.Dean and the team return to finish the race with Will — the metaphor for leadership and connection.[00:11:12] Isolation kills progress.Communities, companies, and sellers fail alone — but win together.QUOTES[00:01:14] “When I read that part of your story, I was like, whoa — forgiveness and reconciliation.”[00:07:52] “The integrity and thoughtfulness of this young man was unbelievable.”[00:11:12] “Sellers don't make it in isolation.

In our year-long look at the whole story of scripture, we're wrapping up the first half of story today, as Pastor Cheryl co-preaches with Steven Byler. As we prepare for the turn into the New Testament, we are reminded all that we've talked about in the Old Testament. This week also marks the first week of Advent, where we remember the coming of Christ, and his promised return! The 400-years of silence provided opportunity after opportunity for the people to forget about the God who loved them (and his promises), but somehow in the waiting, God was still setting the scene for the arrival of the one who would change everything.
Rodney Barnes is an American screenwriter, producer, and author. He has written and produced such TV shows as The Boondocks, Everybody Hates Chris, Marvel's Runaways, American Gods, Wu-Tang: An American Saga, and HBO's Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty. His graphic novels and comic books include Killadelphia, Blacula, Monarch, Marvel's Falcon, and the adaptation of the first season of Star Wars: The Mandalorian. Rodney Barnes' newest comic book series, the horror-noir Crownsville, explores Maryland's Jim Crow–era "Hospital for the Negro Insane." He has received awards and honors from the Peabody Awards, American Film Institute, Writers Guild of America, BET Comedy Awards, and NAACP Image Awards, and the Eisner for creative achievement in American comic books. Barnes shares hard-earned advice from his long career about the importance of discipline, humility, building a moral center, and surviving an industry and world that can overwhelm and corrupt. He also reflects on how a life-and-death health emergency reshaped his views on art, work, relationships, and gratitude. Rodney and Chauncey discuss their mutual love of professional wrestling, Star Wars, and comic books and what shows like Sanford and Son and the other TBS classics of the 1980s taught them as men of a certain vintage. For this Thanksgiving weekend episode, Chauncey DeVega reflects on gratitude in difficult times and reads a story about how Black Civil War soldiers celebrated the holiday. Chauncey is reminded that nobody hates like family as he watches a late-night pre-Thanksgiving verbal brawl and donnybrook between a father and a son at a local business, and issues his annual public service announcement warning about the dangers of physical intimacy and other forms of romance after eating too much food on this (or any other) holiday. And Chauncey DeVega goes to the local cineplex and reviews three new films: Rebuilding, Rental Family, and Eternity. WHERE CAN YOU FIND ME?

In this episode, I get into the impact of taking an extended break from podcasting and how it affects your show's growth, audience engagement, and completion rates. Here are the main takeaways:I discuss a situation where a podcast grew to 500 downloads per episode but lost half its audience after taking a year-long break. Even with improved audio quality and more polished episodes after returning, both downloads and completion rates suffered.Consistency is key. I emphasize how taking long breaks can significantly set you back, comparing it to putting your finger in a leaky bucket – once you take it out, the water (your audience) drains away.Switching to a biweekly episode schedule can help maintain consistency if that's all you can manage with your workload, but it may slow growth.If you notice completion rates dropping, it's a sign something may not connect with your current content. Sometimes we're too close to our own work, so getting outside feedback is crucial.I suggest finding a friend or colleague who matches your target audience to get honest feedback on your episodes.Numbers don't lie!

Mistakes are unavoidable in trading — but how you interpret them determines whether you grow or spiral.In this episode, Agnieszka and Greg uncover the victim mindset that so many traders fall into without realizing it: seeing losses as punishment, blaming the market, and negotiating with themselves to avoid guilt or discomfort. You'll hear why this mindset forms early in life, how it shows up in your trading, and why it leads to emotional debt that clouds every decision you make.Then we shift into the solution:✨ Moving from “Why is this happening to me?” to “What is this here to show me?”✨ Using mistakes as data — not self-judgment✨ Letting go of guilt and practicing true self-forgiveness✨ Rebuilding the curiosity and resilience required to succeed in the marketsIf you're ready to stop fighting your mistakes and start learning from them, this episode will show you how to make that powerful shift.

Jed returns to the show for one of his most honest conversations yet. After years of sharing his growth and wisdom on this podcast, he recently experienced a relapse - and he shows up with raw transparency about what happened. We talk openly about the dishonesty and poor decision-making that comes with using, the shame that follows, and the painful reality of breaking trust with the people who love us most. Jed reflects on what it takes to rebuild that trust, how he's finding his footing again, and why this chapter, though difficult, is part of his continued journey in recovery. This is a vulnerable, grounded conversation about being human, starting over, and choosing honesty even when it's hard.DM me on InstagramMessage me on FacebookListen AD FREE & workout with me on Patreon Connect with me on TikTokEmail me chasingheroine@gmail.comSee you next week!
In this deeply personal episode, Mike returns to his childhood home in Pacific Palisades — a place that once symbolized comfort, community, and family — now forever changed by one of the most devastating wildfires in U.S. history. Through intimate conversations with his mother (and her experience of living in the Palisades for over 50 years), as well as his childhood best friend, photographer Chris Clinton, Mike explores themes of loss, resilience, and the unshakable spirit of community. Together, they reflect on growing up in the Palisades, the day the fire struck, and what it means to rebuild not just homes, but hope.

Hyper-Individualism Since 1968 Has Fractured Civic Communion, Demands Rebuilding of Formative Institutions— Richard Reinsch — Reinsch argues that American politics is fundamentally undermined by a culture of hyper-individualism—a concept emerging around 1968—that divorces citizens from duty, sacrifice, and relational belonging. This cultural fragmentation has destroyed "civic communion" and social cohesion. To reclaim the republic, Reinschcontends citizens must actively resist the breakdown of formative institutions and work to restore loyalty and commitment through religion, education, family, and military service. 1898 PUERTO RICO
What happens when you strip away titles, ego, and identity and choose to build a business and a life rooted in purpose instead? In this powerful episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius sits down with entrepreneur, coach, and aviation innovator Eric Farewell for a deeply honest conversation about identity, business, loss, self-worth, leadership, and the profound transformation that happens when you learn to be fully present. Eric opens up about rebuilding after everything fell apart, redefining success on his own terms, and discovering what truly matters beneath the surface of achievement. Together, Darius and Eric explore the emotional and psychological landscapes behind entrepreneurship and the unexpected clarity that comes when you separate who you are from what you do.

In this week's solo episode, we're pulling back the curtain on our mental health journeys and talking about the parts we've never shared publicly. Cass opens up about what postpartum OCD and anxiety really looked like behind the scenes and Emma shares how her lifelong anxiety shaped the patterns she still works through today. From intrusive thoughts and panic spirals to the shame, the turning points, and the actual support that helped us get better, we're breaking down what healing looked like in real time. It's messy, honest, sometimes dark, and ultimately a conversation we wish we'd heard when we were in it. If mental health has ever knocked you on your ass (especially in early motherhood) this one is for you. We dive into: What postpartum OCD and anxiety looked like behind the scenes. Cass opens up about the intrusive thoughts, fear spirals, and emotional numbness that made early motherhood feel nothing like the highlight reel she expected. Emma's long-term anxiety and the patterns that came with it. Panic cycles, overwhelm, and the instinct to shut down instead of sit with big feelings. Why both of us struggled to admit something was off. The pressure to look fine, the fear of being judged, and the mental gymnastics we used to convince ourselves we could handle it alone. The turning points that pushed us to get help. The honest conversations, therapy breakthroughs, and moments that forced us to stop pretending. The support and tools that actually helped us feel better. OCD treatment programs, medication, grounding routines, and small daily habits that made life feel manageable again. How healing shifted our identities and relationships. Rebuilding confidence, reconnecting with our bodies, and experiencing love and connection in ways that weren't accessible in survival mode.

In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with Dylan Bost, founder of SunnyHQ and a former creative agency owner who hit rock bottom after years of burnout and addiction. Dylan openly shares how an existential crisis (“What is this all for?”) led to the collapse of his multimillion-dollar agency, years of deep healing, and the birth of a radically aligned, human-first WordPress hosting company. This is a raw conversation about turning breakdown into breakthrough and building a business that honors life instead of sacrificing it. Key Takeaways: Burnout rarely announces itself — it's the slow erosion of joy, identity, and meaning while everything looks “successful” on the outside. The most dangerous question an entrepreneur can ignore: “What is this all for?” If left unanswered, it leads to emptiness even at the peak of achievement. Rock bottom can become the foundation: Dylan's collapse forced years of stillness, embodiment work, plant medicine journeys, and nervous-system repair — the true rebuilding started there. You are not your story, you are the storyteller. Letting go of past achievements and identities is scary but essential for real transformation. Simple daily embodiment starts with 5-minute meditation — not to empty the mind, but to become aware of thoughts and let them pass. Awareness is the most powerful “drug”: once you see a destructive habit (endless scrolling, overworking, numbing), it becomes nearly impossible to keep doing it unconsciously. Alignment in business means designing the company around your desired life, not the other way around. SunnyHQ was built on clarity, simplicity, and genuine human support — no bots, no ticket queues, no chaos. True customer service is human connection: fast fixes + warm empathy = customers who feel genuinely cared for (and team members who love their work). Ask for help early. Vulnerability is strength, not weakness. You are not the first entrepreneur to struggle — and you don't have to solve it alone. Rebuilding yourself is the ultimate business strategy.

Edward English grew up between Houston and Ohio in a turbulent home marked by an absent father and an abusive stepfather. Put on Ritalin from ages 7 to 17, he struggled with confidence and identity — eventually turning to drugs as a way to escape. What started as experimentation spiraled into an eight-year heroin addiction that led to his arrest in 2011 for possession, distribution, and trafficking. Sentenced to nearly eight years in prison, Edward served 4.5 before being released in 2016. Behind bars, everything changed. Through faith, mentorship, and personal growth programs, he transformed his mindset and rebuilt his life from the inside out — a journey he documents in his memoir Emersion. Today, Edward is 14 years clean, a husband, father, and commercial plumber in Columbus, Ohio, dedicated to helping others overcome addiction and find purpose after prison. His story is one of pain, perseverance, and the power of true transformation. #LockedInWithIanBick #PrisonStories #TrueCrime #AddictionRecovery #HeroinAddiction #OhioPrison #RedemptionStory #realstories Thank you to DAWS for sponsoring this episode: Go to http://www.daws.org/ to donate, adopt or send items from their wishlist.

Send us a textPeaches and Trent sit down with Kody Dickerson — the guy who took every hit life could throw: failed run, COVID cruise, family crisis, BUD/S heartbreak, the whole stack. And instead of folding, he rebuilt himself into a SWAT enforcer, gang-unit problem-solver, and CrossFit machine. Kody breaks down the moments that rocked him, the honesty that saved him, and the mindset that pulled him out of a 250-pound fog and back into the fight. If you're still telling yourself “now's not the right time,” Peaches and Trent are basically calling you out.⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 The run that nuked everything 05:00 Rescue swimmer or underwater JTAC? 12:20 When home life and the dream collide 25:40 The BUD/S retest reality check 31:10 Choosing family over ego 35:00 Big Macs and rock bottom 39:00 Rebuilding through CrossFit 50:00 From patrol to SWAT alternate 56:00 Project Linear enters the chat 01:00:00 The “what if” that never fully leaves 01:04:00 Why family beats every badge or trident
