His songwriting resonates with everyday issues of poverty, addiction, despair, and love, delivered with an authenticity that reflects his personal experiences and resilience. “You give off good energy, you get back good energy.” - Gene Moran “There is a split where you could on the one hand embrace the disability and say well I can't do this I can't do that…then you end up limiting yourself but I think the right way to do it is the way your dad encouraged you is, how can we…you have to do things a little differently then other people but the hard ‘no' isn't there, you just have to find a way to make it work.” - Dr. Dave Leicken Follow the podcast:  Listen on Apple Podcasts (link: https://apple.co/3s1YH7h)  Listen on iHeart (link: https://ihr.fm/3MEY7FM)  Listen on Spotify (Link: https://spoti.fi/3yMmQCE)    Resources: Gene Moran's Website Dead Man's Guitar by Gene Moran Dr. Dave Leicken   Connect with Mathew Blades:  Twitter - twitter.com/MathewBlades Instagram - instagram.com/MathewBladesmedia/  Facebook - facebook.com/mathewbladesmedia/  Website - learnfrompeoplewholivedit.com/   Additional Credits: LFPWLI is managed by IMS LLC   A note from our partner, Better Than Bitter: Divorce isn't just a life transition - it's a full-blown identity shift.

Humor, Healing, and Resilience with Elaine Lindsay In this episode, you'll hear:  How our belief system about ourselves is formed—and how to shift it What it's like to live with suicidal ideation Strength in accepting what you can and cannot change In this episode, Mathew, Dr. Dave Leicken, and Elaine Lindsay explore the power of humor as a therapeutic tool, highlighting its ability to bring lightness to even the heaviest of struggles. They discuss the importance of beginning the healing process while emphasizing that it doesn't have to follow a specific timeline. The conversation also delves into the realities of living with suicidal ideation, offering insights into navigating these challenges with compassion, resilience, and support. Elaine Lindsay is a Canadian speaker, podcaster, and digital integration specialist dedicated to mental health advocacy, particularly suicide prevention and awareness. As the host of the Suicide Zen Forgiveness podcast, she fosters open and honest conversations to break the silence, stigma, and shame surrounding suicide loss, ideation, and mental health. Her personal journey is one of profound resilience—having lost a friend to suicide at 16, turned to substance use, and endured a life-altering car crash in her 20s that resulted in the loss of a pregnancy. Despite facing multiple personal losses and numerous surgeries, Elaine has found strength in community support, storytelling, and even humor. Writing for Medium and performing stand-up, she uses laughter as a healing tool, bringing a unique perspective to discussions on grief, trauma, and recovery. “Don't keep everything inside. You are not a one person army.” - Elaine Lindsay “When you realize that some of these things are temporary, and the fact is, I lived through all that pain, I can go through one more thing.” -Elaine Lindsay “If you can just keep moving forward and keep plowing through, things eventually settle down. And when you get on the other side of it, there is gold. There are lessons to be learned, and there are things you can draw out of the pain that make you stronger, wiser, better equipped to help other people going through it.” - Dr. Dave Leicken Follow the podcast:  Listen on Apple Podcasts (link: https://apple.co/3s1YH7h)  Listen on iHeart (link: https://ihr.fm/3MEY7FM)  Listen on Spotify (Link: https://spoti.fi/3yMmQCE)    Resources: Elaine Lindsay Website Suicide Zen Forgiveness Podcast by Elaine Lindsay Elaine Lindsay Linkedin  Dr. Dave Leicken   Connect with Mathew Blades:  Twitter - twitter.com/MathewBlades Instagram - instagram.com/MathewBladesmedia/  Facebook - facebook.com/mathewbladesmedia/  Website - learnfrompeoplewholivedit.com/   Additional Credits: LFPWLI is managed by IMS LLC   A note from our partner, Better Than Bitter:   Divorce isn't just a life transition - it's a full-blown identity shift.

The Unexpected Gift of Trauma: Finding Growth After Pain with Dr. Edith Shiro In this episode, you'll hear:  Practical steps to move from trauma to post-traumatic growth Tips for identifying a support group that truly aids your healing journey How generational trauma is passed down through genetics and the power you have to break the cycle Dr. Edith Shiro is a highly respected clinical psychologist, author, and speaker specializing in trauma and post-traumatic growth. She co-founded the Trauma and Resilience Center in Miami, Florida, and is the author of The Unexpected Gift of Trauma: The Path to Post-Traumatic Growth. As the granddaughter of a Holocaust survivor and a Syrian refugee, Dr. Shiro's personal history deeply informs her work, inspiring her mission to help individuals break cycles of generational trauma. Growing up as a Jewish woman in Venezuela before immigrating to the U.S. to pursue her education and career, she embodies resilience and transformation.  In this episode, Mathew, Dr. Dave Leicken, and Dr. Edith Shiro dive into the complex and deeply personal topic of generational trauma, exploring how it is not only passed down through learned behaviors but is embedded in our genetics. Dr. Shiro shares the stages needed to get to post-traumatic growth, starting with radical acceptance of one's experiences. They explore the idea that trauma, though painful, can hold unexpected gifts. The conversation sheds light on the inevitability of trauma as part of the human experience, how its impact is deeply subjective, and what it takes to shift from suffering to growth. They also discuss the importance of timing, knowing when you're truly ready to heal, and the difference between letting go and not caring. Finally, they address the critical role of support, distinguishing between helpful and harmful support groups and how to recognize if the people you turn to are aiding your healing or keeping you stuck in pain. “Let's understand what trauma is…Anything that can happen to you that shakes or shatters your belief system about yourself, about the other, about the world, for which you don't have tools or you don't have resources to deal with.” -Dr. Shiro “Time is a myth because you can't say ‘Time heals all'. It's what you do with time.” - Dr. Shiro “Yes we get passed on traumas, but we also get passed on treasures, and we also get passed on wisdom.” -Dr. Shiro Follow the podcast:  Listen on Apple Podcasts (link: https://apple.co/3s1YH7h)  Listen on iHeart (link: https://ihr.fm/3MEY7FM)  Listen on Spotify (Link: https://spoti.fi/3yMmQCE)    Resources: The Unexpected Gift of Trauma: The Path to Posttraumatic Growth By Dr. Edith Shiro Dr. Edith Shiro's Website Dr. Dave Leicken   Connect with Mathew Blades:  Twitter - twitter.com/MathewBlades Instagram - instagram.com/MathewBladesmedia/  Facebook - facebook.com/mathewbladesmedia/  Website - learnfrompeoplewholivedit.com/   Additional Credits: LFPWLI is managed by IMS LLC   A note from our partner, Better Than Bitter:   Divorce isn't just a life transition - it's a full-blown identity shift.

They dive into the complexities of grief, exploring how to accept that life will never be the same while still finding a way to move forward. The conversation delves into psychedelic therapy—its benefits, risks, and why it's not for everyone—while emphasizing the importance of setting intentions for any healing journey. Beyond psychedelics, they share practical strategies for those seeking alternative healing methods, including sound healing.
