    In this inspiring and illuminating conversation, Dr. Dan sits down with Inna Segal, bestselling author of The Secret Language of Your Body, to explore how pain, trauma, and emotional overwhelm can become powerful gateways to healing, self-awareness, and inner freedom. Inna shares her extraordinary personal journey from debilitating chronic illness and profound grief to discovering her intuitive healing abilities — and dedicating her life to helping others reconnect with the wisdom of their bodies. Dr. Dan and Inna break down why the body is never the enemy, how slowing down is the first essential step toward wellness, and why meaningful healing requires curiosity, courage, compassion, and patience. Inna explains how unresolved childhood wounds, ancestral trauma, and unprocessed emotions can shape our physical and emotional experiences — and how simple daily practices can begin to restore balance, empowerment, and alignment. Listeners will learn how to tune into the body's signals, use breath and attention to shift internal states, embrace personal growth without overwhelming themselves, and understand healing as a lifelong journey toward authenticity, connection, and wholeness.

    ABOUT THE EPISODE:When your journey with a child's substance use stretches into its second decade, you enter what we loving call "warrior mom" (or parent) territory – a place where endurance meets wisdom, and self-preservation becomes an art form. Today's conversation with Hopestream co-founder, Cathy, honors these battle-tested parents who've been navigating their adult children's challenges for ten, fifteen, even twenty years or more.This isn't an advice-filled episode - because more advice isn't what you need. It's a raw, honest dialogue between two mothers who know the unique terrain of loving a child through active use, high-risk lifestyles, homelessness, incarceration, and the revolving door of recovery and relapse. Cathy shares her own marathon story, including driving hundreds of miles to share picnics with her daughter – a simple act of presence that seemed insignificant (and ineffective) at the time but later proved transformative. You'll hear:Why "handing over a shift" to a higher power becomes essential for sustainable parenting through decades of struggleHow warrior parents navigate the delicate dance of support versus enabling when adult children face eviction, homelessness, or legal troublesThe unexpected and seemingly counterintuitive renewal that comes from serving othersWhy those seemingly fruitless gestures of connection (like Cathy's picnics) create an energetic contract that transcends the immediate momentThe liberating truth about our children's remarkable resourcefulness when stability disappears and traditional safety nets failThis podcast is part of a nonprofit called Hopestream CommunityGet our free, 4-video course, Hope Starts Here, and access to our Limited Membership hereLearn about The Stream, our private online community for momsFind us on Instagram hereWatch the podcast on YouTube hereDownload a free e-book, Worried Sick: A Compassionate Guide For Parents When Your Teen or Young Adult Child Misuses Drugs and AlcoholHopestream Community is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and an Amazon Associate.

    What if the secret to real resilience isn't just powering through, but learning to pause—even when it's the absolute hardest thing to do? I've been there myself, caught in the frantic pace, feeling like the world's too loud and demanding. Maybe you too, as a leader, find it easy to keep going… until suddenly, you realize you don't even know how you feel anymore. You're supposed to be strong, to keep it together. But honestly, is pushing through actually helping you, or just holding you together by a thread? So many leaders believe resilience means being tough and unbreakable. But the truth, as Dr. Ute Liersch and I explore in this episode, is that resilience is about yielding and noticing the real experience, even when it's frustrating. When we slow down enough to notice what's going on inside, we can actually respond flexibly, adapt, and find our footing again. Today, we're reframing resilience and looking to the deeper work of psychological flexibility and awareness. This is about building a daily ritual of noticing, connecting, moving, expressing, and realigning with what matters most. This isn't about achieving perfection or following someone else's script for success. This is about real, practical ways to build your noticing muscle using the resources you already have and giving yourself grace when it's hard. Chapter Highlights (00:00) Why noticing is more than mindfulness (05:10) How do we give without depleting our own energy? (07:00) The Power of "Offering" Instead of "Pushing": Reframing leadership at home and work (10:40) The Yielding Assignment: What happened when Andrea stopped to notice?

    In this deeply moving episode, host Bret Bradigan sits down with Debbie Lennon, author of Where's Tommy?: A Mother's Journey Through Her Son's Traumatic Brain Injury, a heart-wrenching, candid, and often surprising memoir about a family's decades-long struggle to find answers and justice for their son. Debbie is joined by her husband Tom and daughter-in-law Amber Lennon to share the story of their son Tommy — once a bright, charming, artistic teen, tragically changed by an undiagnosed traumatic brain injury sustained at age 16. After the accident, Tommy's life veered into homelessness, drug addiction, repeated incarceration, and serious mental-health challenges, exposing the Lennons to the stark realities and failings of the criminal justice and behavioral health systems.Despite the heartbreak, Debbie's narrative is infused with wit, humanity and hard-earned insight. Together with Tom and Amber, she reflects on nearly 40 years of advocacy, the search for answers, and what it takes to love someone who struggles against invisible wounds. Their discussion reveals not just the personal toll of brain injury but also systemic gaps in recognition, treatment, and support for survivors and families alike. Where's Tommy? is ultimately a testament to resilience, family devotion, and the fight for understanding in a world that too often overlooks those most in need.

    Welcome to Episode 1 of Crossing Thresholds: Religion, Resilience & Migration, a special mini-series of Walk Talk Listen produced by the Joint Learning Initiative on Faith & Local Communities (JLI). This series brings to life new research on climate change, faith, and human mobility from JLI's recently published Climate, Faith & Migration report, developed in collaboration with Christian Aid.   In this opening conversation, Maurice Bloem speaks with Vera Solovyeva, an Indigenous leader and researcher from the Sakha Republic in Siberia. Vera introduces the cosmology of the Three Worlds and the Three Souls, a worldview that shapes identity, responsibility, and resilience for her people. She reflects on ecological imbalance, cultural pressure, spiritual loss, and the deep relationship between people and land. Vera explains how indigenous knowledge systems guide communities in responding to climate change, not only as practical adaptation strategies, but as living expressions of culture, faith, and belonging.   This episode sets the tone for the series by connecting lived experience with evidence, showing how global research findings are rooted in real stories from the frontlines.   Learn more: The full Climate, Faith & Migration report by JLI and Christian Aid is available here.   Listener Engagement: Learn more about Vera via her Instagram account Share your feedback on this episode through our Walk Talk Listen Feedback link – your thoughts matter!

What began as a planned celebration for my younger sister's 30th birthday became a powerful homecoming filled with mixed emotions, difficult decisions, and meaningful moments of family, service, and reflection.

    Exiting Tech Businesses: Insights from Draven Draven, a seasoned tech entrepreneur, joined Michael to discuss his journey of building and successfully exiting two tech companies. The first was a software development agency that he scaled organically, and the second was a field service management business sold to a billion-dollar private equity group in July 2024. Draven shared valuable lessons on how taking outside investment impacts exit strategies, stressing the importance of market timing, investor expectations, and strategic foresight. Resilience and Entrepreneurial Growth Draven opened up about his early life challenges, including being homeless at 18, and how those experiences shaped his mindset. Once something he hid, his story has now become a source of strength, teaching him resilience and empathy. Michael pointed out that Draven's grounded approach to entrepreneurship reflects a focus on survival and practical outcomes rather than distractions. Draven shared how his mindset evolved from surviving to thriving—seeking growth and purpose beyond financial goals. Journey to Personal Resilience Michael reflected on his own experiences of overcoming adversity, including a near-fatal heart attack and financial setbacks. These moments reinforced the importance of resilience and personal evolution. Both Michael and Draven agreed that while financial success matters, the deeper reward comes from self-development, expanding one's potential, and learning through change. They discussed how continuous adaptation of tools, strategies, and mindsets is crucial for navigating both business and life's transitions. Klipboard.io's Field Service Management Focus Draven shared insights into his company Klipboard.io, which was acquired by Carriage Commercial Systems in July 2024 and rebranded globally. Klipboard.io specializes in field service management software that empowers technicians in plumbing, HVAC, and fire equipment industries through digital tools for operations, quoting, scheduling, job management, invoicing, and accounting. Michael connected this to his own consulting experiences, emphasizing the importance of technology that simplifies processes instead of complicating them. Draven agreed, underscoring how meaningful it feels to deliver solutions that make technicians' work more efficient and rewarding. Benefits of Field Service Software Together, Michael and Draven explored how Klipboard.io's platform helps field service teams streamline workflows and reduce operational bottlenecks. By automating manual processes, businesses can increase their capacity and focus on serving clients. Draven noted that many service companies still lack modern digital systems, making tailored solutions essential for improving productivity and profitability. Both emphasized the power of listening to users and designing around their real-world needs for stronger adoption and measurable results.

    Flame Bearers - The Women Athletes Carrying Tokyo's Torch

    After nearly 400 conversations with Olympians, Paralympians, and trailblazing women athletes from 55 countries, one thing is clear: no two stories are alike.

    From Hearing Loss To Hope: Desiree Taylor On Faith, Advocacy, And Resilience

    What if the most exhausting part of your faith wasn't doubt, but the checklist you thought God required? We sit down with author and mentor Desiree Taylor to explore how progressive hearing loss, social hurdles, and a lifetime in church led her from rule-keeping to a relationship marked by grace, courage, and advocacy. Desiree opens up about growing up deaf, navigating school with hearing aids and later cochlear implants, and how lip-reading sharpened her attention to people's hearts. She also shares the emotional weight of genetics, the ache of passing hearing loss to a child, and the honest “why me?” questions that became her doorway to deeper trust.The conversation moves into the gap many feel between religion and a living encounter with God. Desiree describes years of shame and perfectionism, the pressure to perform spiritually, and the moment she finally brought her grief to God and discovered a gentler truth. From there, Scripture came alive, identity took root, and the lie of “I'm always failing” lost its power. We tie those insights to church life today, naming practical ways communities can include people with disabilities—clear communication, intentional eye contact, planned accessibility—and why culture change means more than a one-time fix.Desiree's new book, Created to Relate: Living Beyond Religion, blends memoir and reflection with questions that help readers examine what they believe about God, themselves, and others.

    My heart is yearning (yep, it's a NOFX song) in anticipation.Of what?Well, that's what the episode is, you jerk. Don't ruin the surprise.Coming on the heels of the tragic shooting in Sydney, Australia, the boys couldn't help but notice the commentary about how someone, somewhere, should have anticipated it.What does that have to do with Punk Rock Safety?Well, anticipation is one of what Erik Hollnagel calls the four potentials of resilient systems. Sounds great, but what - and how - are we supposed to anticipate? It doesn't seem possible to predict every possible failure or event, right? But what about conditions in the system?Instead of trying to 'Magic 8 Ball' everything, Ron, Dave, and Ben suggest that what organizations should anticipate is where systems, processes, or people may be stretched, stressed, or pushed to their limits. Like in the circle pit. Or pretty much any time you're forced to listen to the Misfits for very long. Or ska.Basically, we should focus on anticipating where there is less capacity to adapt and maneuver. Recognizing these vulnerable spots, organizations can then build their capacity to adapt, respond, and recover, even if it isn't a specific scenario.So, expecting a single, complex convergence into an unpredictable event is tough. Planning for degraded conditions in parts of the system without a lot of backup? That's the kind of anticipation that counts (somebody let the sound guys at Punk in the Park know, would ya?). DISCLAIMER: You probably shouldn't take anything in this podcast too seriously. Punk Rock Safety is for entertainment only. It's definitely not a replacement for professional or legal advice, and the fair amount of piss-taking, shithousery, and general ridiculousness ought to clue you into the fact that no one - and no organization - is endorsing (or un-endorsing, if that's a thing) any products, ideas, or other things. Except NOFX. We definitely endorse them.Oh, and give your money to Punk Rock Saves Lives. They're a rad organization that works in mental health, addiction, and human rights. And they're awesome people who can use your help to keep on kicking ass at what they do.https://www.punkrocksaveslives.org/Let us know what you think at info@punkrocksafety.com or on our LinkedIn page.Merch at punkrocksafetymerch.com
