#1,006: Join us as we sit down with Juliet Warner – entrepreneur, creator, and mother of four who shares openly about recovery, faith, marriage, motherhood, and personal reinvention. After nearly a decade sober, Juliet relapsed – despite having built what outwardly looked like a stable, successful life. She got sober again at 38 and began rebuilding from the inside out, focusing on accountability, spiritual discipline, and daily structure. In this episode, Juliet gets candid about the realities of addiction and what it takes to maintain sobriety through different seasons of life. She shares practical lessons on recognizing triggers, creating structure, asking for help, taking accountability, and navigating relapse without letting it define you. She also opens up about the role of faith, family, motherhood, and community in her recovery – and how to build a life that supports long-term sobriety. Most importantly, Juliet shares why recovery isn't about perfection, but about continuing to choose yourself and get back up.   If you or someone you know is struggling with substance abuse or experiencing a mental health crisis, text or call 988 to reach the 24-hour Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Baruch HaLevi opens this conversation with a statistic most listeners have never heard: every 13 minutes in America, a man dies by suicide, and men account for roughly 80% of all suicide deaths. For Baruch, this isn't abstract. He's lost family members to suicide across multiple generations, and he candidly shares that he himself came close to the same fate about a decade ago, during a period of profound identity loss after stepping away from 20 years as a rabbi. Grounded in the work of Holocaust survivor and psychiatrist Viktor Frankl, Baruch and Larry talk through what actually helps a man in genuine despair: finding a "why not," the specific reason to keep going, learning to sit with guilt without letting it curdle into shame, and the necessity of real, honest community instead of empty check-ins. Both men share their own history with suicidal crisis directly. If you or someone you love has ever been in a season that felt unbearable, this conversation offers a clear, compassionate way through it, but given the depth of what's discussed, please take care with how and when you engage with it.   Timeline Summary [1:24] Introducing the statistic behind Baruch's mission: a man dies by suicide every 13 minutes in America [2:41] Baruch shares that his father and grandmother both died by suicide, and that it's deeply personal to his work [4:50] Larry and Baruch each share their own history of suicidal crisis [7:07] Discovering Viktor Frankl's work as a turning point during his own darkest season [11:11] Rebuilding identity from the ground up after stepping away from a lifelong profession [12:22] A full introduction to Baruch: logotherapist, rabbi, author of "The Guy in the Glass" [13:40] The origin of the book's title, tied to a poem given to Baruch by his grandfather [16:21] Larry announces the first-ever Dad Edge Day with the Arizona Cardinals, November 15th [18:24] Baruch reflects on why his father reached the point he did [27:46] Introducing the concept of a "why not" as a foundation to keep living [29:49] Discussing how the idea of "finding your why" has become diluted in modern culture [31:19] Viktor Frankl's concept of self-transcendence: living for something beyond yourself [36:50] Larry announces a rare, small-group preview of the Dad Edge Business Boardroom Brotherhood [38:00] How genuine community changes the experience of shame and crisis [41:11] Why hiding in isolation during a hard season is actually a disservice to others [45:37] The loss of Baruch's closest friend, and the concept of "bearing witness" to another man's life [47:45] Unpacking the phrase "shame dies in safe conversations," and the difference between guilt and shame [49:53] Details on Baruch's book, his mission, and where to find his work [51:37] What Baruch would say directly to a man in a moment of crisis [53:24] Larry shares an important reframe he once heard from his own therapist   Five Key Takeaways Finding a concrete "why not," a specific reason not to give up, can be as important as finding a broader life purpose when someone is in genuine crisis. Guilt and shame are not the same thing. Guilt corrects behavior and can be redemptive; shame attacks a person's fundamental worth and has no redemptive value. Healthy communities make room for guilt and accountability without slipping into shame. Self-transcendence, living for something or someone beyond yourself, is described as the deepest source of meaning available to a person, more foundational than personal happiness or self-actualization alone. Withdrawing into isolation during a hard season doesn't protect the people who care about you, it deprives them of the chance to show up for you, and it removes the example of bravery that could help someone else going through the same thing. Genuine connection, being truly seen and known by another person, is one of the most protective forces against despair. Real community requires honesty, not surface-level check-ins that accept "I'm fine" as a real answer.   Links & Resources Baruch HaLevi: https://bhalevi.com The Guy in the Glass by Baruch HaLevi: https://bhalevi.com The Dad Edge Day at State Farm Stadium: https://thedadedge.com/nfl The Dad Edge Boardroom Mastermind: https://thedadedge.com/guest The Dad Edge Podcast: https://thedadedge.com/1530   Closing If you are having thoughts of suicide, or you're worried about someone who might be, please don't wait. Call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, available 24 hours a day, every day. You are not a burden, and the people who love you would rather have you, in any season, than lose you. If you're not in crisis yourself but this episode brought something up for you, please talk to someone you trust, or a licensed therapist, today rather than carrying it alone.

Is the fantasy of football worth the potential price?That's what football athletes, fans and doctors are asking after a new study published in late August revealed that from a sample of athletes who played at least one NFL game in their careers and who died between 2016 and 2021, a minimum of around 25% -- that's one in every four of those players --  had a brain condition called CTE upon their death. But what do these findings really mean for one of the world's most lucrative sports leagues, and how might our cultural ideas about football be creating blind spots for us when we consider the risks of the game? To find out Brittany is joined by Gene Demby, co-host of NPR's Code Switch, and LZ Granderson, host of the LZ Granderson Show podcast, and op-ed columnist at the LA Times.Want more episodes at the intersection of labor, entertainment, and pop culture?

This week, in recognition of World Suicide Prevention Day (September 10th) and Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, Chad joins us for an honest, unfiltered conversation about mental health and stigma. Together we explore how stigma keeps people from asking for help, what it really means to check in on someone, and how each of us can help uncover a sense of hope and wellbeing in the people around us. This episode is a reminder that these conversations save lives, and that starting them takes courage, not certainty. If you or someone you know is struggling, you are not alone, and help is available: 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline: call or text 988 Crisis Text Line: text HOME to 741741 You matter. Your story matters. And this conversation is for you.

This week's Wednesday Q&A is a little different, I'm running it solo since my usual co-host Joe couldn't make it, and honestly, it turned into one of the harder, more important conversations we've had. A man in our Alliance named Rich called in with a genuinely difficult situation: his 17-year-old stepdaughter recently went through a breakup, was hospitalized shortly after making statements about wanting to end her life, and Rich is trying to figure out how to support her while also being honest that he's not sure whether what he's seeing is a real crisis or a manipulation tactic she's learned to use. I want to be upfront that I am not a licensed therapist, and neither is anyone else on this call. We have someone in our community who specializes in this exact area, and when a situation is acute, that's who we point men toward. What I can offer is real, lived experience, because one of my own boys went through a genuinely frightening season with depression and anxiety years ago, and I've been in the position of feeling completely out of my depth as a father. If you're a father watching a child struggle right now and feeling like you have no idea what you're doing, or you're not even sure if what you're seeing is a real crisis, this conversation won't give you all the answers, because there often aren't easy ones. But it might help you feel less alone in it.   Timeline Summary [1:02] Opening the Wednesday Q&A solo, and introducing today's difficult topic [1:48] Introducing Rich, a leader in the Alliance's teen-parenting group, and his situation [3:13] Rich shares that his 17-year-old bonus daughter has recently expressed suicidal thoughts [4:33] Understanding the timeline: a difficult personal season followed by a breakup two weeks ago [5:43] Larry announces Roommates to Soulmates cohort three, starting September 16th [7:25] Larry's disclaimer: not a licensed therapist, and where the community sends acute cases [8:37] Asking Rich what he'd want to see in his stepdaughter's life a few months from now [9:49] The tension between wanting to support her and wanting to hold her accountable to her own goals [10:47] Assessing her circle of friends and the instability there [12:30] First piece of advice: don't go through this alone, and find a therapist she connects with [13:20] The breakfast and games advice from a mentor, and why simple connection mattered more than conversation [15:27] The medication journey: an initial diagnosis, a worsening condition, and a specialized brain scan clinic [17:07] How a corrected diagnosis and a supplement-based approach turned things around over about a year [17:32] Larry shares his own 2017 hospitalization following extreme physical training and severe insomnia [19:29] Reiterating connection over correction as the throughline of the advice [19:51] Larry announces a rare, small-group preview of the Dad Edge Business Boardroom Brotherhood [24:19] Closing advice: don't go through it alone, connect first, and remember that without connection there is no influence   Five Key Takeaways You don't have to be a mental health expert to support a struggling child, but you do have to know when to bring in someone who is. Recognizing the limits of your own expertise and connecting your family with the right specialist is itself an act of good fathering. Connection has to come before correction. A struggling teenager often needs low-pressure time with a parent, free of goal-setting or serious conversation, far more than another conversation about fixing the problem. Finding the right therapist matters as much as finding a therapist at all. A mismatch in chemistry or approach can make a child more resistant to help they genuinely need. A diagnosis can be wrong, and it's worth getting a second opinion when treatment isn't working. A corrected diagnosis and a different treatment approach turned around a genuinely difficult, months-long decline. You are not required to be blood related to be the father figure a child needs most. Consistent presence during a hard season is what a child remembers and trusts long after the season ends.   Links & Resources Get the full show notes and every link from this episode: https://thedadedge.com/1525 Ready to stop feeling like roommates and start leading your marriage?

Get connected with people who know more than you do, keep showing up for the small, ordinary moments of connection, and trust that the fruit of your presence will show up even if you can't see it yet. Without connection, we have no influence, so lead with connection first, every time. Go out and live legendary.

The conversation also explores Seth's journey into running Tweeds Suit Shop, the lessons he has learned through entrepreneurship, and how being a husband and father continues to influence the man he is becoming. This is a conversation about what happens when holding everything together is no longer possible—and how a breakdown can sometimes become the beginning of real transformation.

Officer Randy Keith is a military veteran, a 15-year law enforcement officer, and the founder of Present Father, a platform that now reaches hundreds of thousands of dads across the world. He didn't set out to build a movement. He built it from the darkest chapter of his life, a high-conflict divorce that put him through false allegations, an order of protection that nearly cost him his career, CPS interviews of his young children, and the terror of dropping his kids off not knowing if he'd get them back. Randy walks Larry through the night it all began, why he chose 50-50 custody when his attorney said he could have won full custody, and the moment in his car around the corner from his ex-wife's house when he pulled out his phone and started talking, the post that became Present Father. This is a raw conversation about father's rights, staying present against enormous odds, and turning your mess into your message. It's also a heavy one, with an honest look at how many men in these situations reach the edge, and why community can be lifesaving.   Timeline Summary [1:23] – The night his ex-wife went for the gun safe and he called 911 [4:34] – Declining to press charges because he didn't want to jail the mother of his kids [5:48] – Discharged in hours after telling nurses he was abusing his power as an officer [7:14] – Filing a Title 36 mental health petition and getting emergency custody [9:01] – Choosing 50-50 so he could look his kids in the eye someday [10:15] – His attorney saying he was in the driver's seat and could have full custody [12:13] – Served with an order of protection built on false allegations [13:09] – How a federal firearm statute nearly ended his law enforcement career [14:38] – His kids interviewed by CPS at school without his knowledge [15:40] – The mosquito-bite doctor's note that became a bedbugs and abuse allegation [17:25] – Inviting CPS in, and being asked to teach parenting classes at the end [20:49] – Why she really moved four hours away, and the job that lasted two weeks [23:28] – The threats that continue and the fears he carries as a target [26:35] – Finding purpose in the worst season and turning mess into message [30:10] – Why high-conflict divorce is rare, and why so few men talk about it [33:28] – Introducing Randy Keith and the Present Father platform [36:00] – The moment in the car that birthed Present Father [38:24] – The first TikTok post and the flood of men who felt the same [42:30] – From 800 followers to nearly 900,000 across platforms [44:08] – The suicide messages, and how Randy responds personally [46:08] – Sean Pearson and the Dad to Dad peer support platform [47:22] – The father who thanked him for comforting his son in his final moments [48:06] – Larry on losing two men from the Dad Edge community to suicide [50:30] – The therapist's question that reframed suicide for Larry in 2017 [52:22] – Why the pain is a season, not a life sentence [53:39] – Larry on being glad he didn't listen when people said "this too shall pass," and glad he listened just enough [54:08] – The vision for Present Father: a nonprofit providing attorneys to the falsely accused [54:35] – Advocating in D.C. for equal shared parenting as the standard [56:05] – Bankruptcy as a common cost of fighting for your kids [56:34] – What he learned from his first relationship and carried into his new marriage [57:57] – Why one bad experience doesn't mean everyone will treat you the same [59:55] – Where to connect with Randy and the Present Father Show   5 Key Takeaways Presence Beats Perfection — Your kids don't need a perfect father. They need a present one. Even when circumstances are stacked against you, showing up consistently is what matters most. Your Mess Is Your Message — You don't have to be the polished expert to help people. Randy's raw honesty as an everyday guy going through it reaches people precisely because it's real and relatable, not because he has it all figured out. The Pain Is a Season, Not a Sentence — In the darkest moments it feels like it will never end, but it's temporary. Suicide doesn't end the pain, it transfers it to the people you love most, for generations. Reaching out and finding community can be lifesaving. You're Not Alone in This — High-conflict divorce and false allegations are isolating, and shame keeps men silent. Finding even one other person who's been through it turns unbearable isolation into a community and a path forward. One Bad Experience Isn't the Whole World — Surviving a devastating relationship doesn't mean everyone will treat you the same way. With honest due diligence and self-work, there is happiness and partnership on the other side.   Links & Resources Episode page and all links: https://thedadedge.com/1521 Present Father (Randy Keith's website): https://present-father.com  The Present Father Show podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/2PZwSoq6glUSq20CcHB88R Roommates to Soulmates (cohort 3, starts September 16, free preview calls September 8 and 9): https://thedadedge.com/soulmates Dad Edge Day with the Arizona Cardinals (November 15, Cardinals vs Rams, State Farm Stadium): https://thedadedge.com/nfl   If You're Struggling This episode deals openly with suicide.

Suicide Solution. In this episode, we sit with Martin Luther and C.S. Lewis to discuss the topic of self-murder ("suicide"). We talk about focusing on higher truth, how individualism leads to harmful consequences, and how Christians and churches may discuss this with others. This episode discusses suicide directly. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, US) — and reach out to a pastor, a friend, or family, not just a stranger on the internet. SHOW NOTES: C.S.

On this episode of Nine One One Nonsense, we're joined by Hensley (Nurse Hens).At just 25 years old, Hensley landed her dream job as a flight nurse, a move that many thought was too early. Instead of letting the criticism define her, she doubled down, put in the work, and earned every bit of confidence she has today.We talk about the pressure of working in pediatric critical care, the patient that almost made her walk away from nursing, why therapy has been an essential part of her career, and the moments that remind us why we chose healthcare in the first place.This isn't just a conversation about flight medicine; it's about growth, resilience, and learning to trust yourself when everyone else is questioning you.Podcast: ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/1vAokfqG5aifoRBKk9MAUh?si=T8DipSBCQzWfOeiBW3h-Vw⁠FB Page: https://m.facebook.com/groups/nineoneonenonsense/?ref=shareInstagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/911nonsense/⁠X: ⁠https://twitter.com/911Nonsense⁠Bonfire Merch: https://www.bonfire.com/store/nine-one-one-nonsense/?utm_source=copy_link&utm_medium=store_page_share&utm_campaign=nine-one-one-nonsense&utm_content=defaultContent Warning: This episode contains discussions about death, including graphic and potentially triggering details.

When the thing you built becomes your identity, losing it can feel like losing yourself. Anthony Trucks spent 13 years turning himself into an NFL player. Then football disappeared, and the identity underneath it nearly collapsed too. His business struggled. His marriage fell apart. He lost his health, his status, and nearly himself. In this conversation, Anthony and I unpack the invisible machinery of identity: why we confuse ourselves with our titles, why responsibility restores agency, and why information alone does not create change. Anthony explains dark work, the unseen and often uncelebrated work that rewires who you are when nobody is watching. We also explore: The identity gap that appears when a career or chapter ends Why you were never the fruit, you were always the tree How helplessness can become the darkest lie you believe Why acting out of character can create a new identity The connection between self-respect and self-love Why action creates clarity and motion changes emotion How to stop identifying with outcomes The difference between shadow work and dark work How to intentionally build the person you need to become This is not a clean reinvention story. It is the truth about what can happen when the identity that built you starts breaking you.

The fawn response is one of the most common—and most misunderstood—trauma adaptations. While many people recognize it as people-pleasing, saying yes too often, or avoiding conflict, fawning is far more than a personality trait. It is a deeply wired survival response designed to preserve attachment, reduce threat, and maintain connection when the nervous system believes belonging is at risk. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof explore the neuroscience of the fawn response, explaining why so many people learn to abandon themselves in order to maintain relationships. They examine how developmental trauma teaches children to prioritize attachment over authenticity, why boundaries can feel physically threatening, and how chronic self-sacrifice eventually disconnects us from our own needs, emotions, and body. Jennifer also shares deeply personal reflections on her own healing journey, including how fawning shaped her relationships, her experience of people-pleasing, and her recovery after surviving a kidnapping for the purpose of sex trafficking. Together, Jennifer and Elisabeth distinguish between acute survival fawning during life-threatening events and the chronic relational fawning that quietly shapes everyday interactions, work, friendships, and intimate relationships. The conversation also explores sexual fawning—one of the least discussed trauma adaptations—and how nervous system dysregulation can cause people to override their body's own signals in order to preserve attachment, avoid conflict, or maintain connection. They discuss why these patterns often continue inside loving relationships, how dissociation disconnects us from authentic consent, and why rebuilding trust with our own body becomes one of the most important parts of healing. Rather than viewing fawning as weakness or codependency, Jennifer and Elisabeth invite listeners to understand it as an intelligent biological adaptation that once protected survival. Healing isn't about becoming less caring or less connected. It's about expanding nervous system capacity so connection no longer requires self-abandonment. Key Takeaways What the fawn response really is and why it is a biological survival adaptation rather than a personality trait. The difference between acute survival fawning and chronic relational fawning. Why people-pleasing, caretaking, and self-sacrifice are often nervous system responses rather than conscious choices. How developmental trauma teaches us to choose attachment over authenticity. Why boundaries often feel dangerous to the nervous system. The neuroscience of attachment, co-regulation, and social survival. Why connection is a regulated nervous system state—not simply an emotion. How chronic fawning contributes to emotional suppression, shame, inflammation, and nervous system dysregulation. How false connection develops through self-abandonment. Jennifer's personal reflections on surviving kidnapping and how fawning functioned during an acute survival experience. The hidden dynamics of sexual fawning and why it often persists inside loving relationships. How dissociation disconnects us from our body's "yes" and "no." Why emotional processing helps restore authentic boundaries and self-expression. Practical ways to begin rewiring the fawn response through daily nervous system practice. If you've ever struggled to say no, felt responsible for everyone else's emotions, or found yourself losing your voice in order to keep the peace, this episode offers a compassionate, neuroscience-informed understanding of why those patterns developed—and how they can begin to change. Healing starts by recognizing that your nervous system was protecting you. Recovery begins when your body learns that authentic connection no longer requires self-abandonment   Resources

What if authenticity isn't a personality trait—but a sign of nervous system capacity? Many people believe they struggle to be themselves because they lack confidence, boundaries, or self-awareness. But after trauma, authenticity can feel physiologically dangerous. When the nervous system has learned that honesty risks rejection, conflict, or abandonment, masking, performing, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and emotional editing become intelligent survival strategies. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof explore why authenticity is one of the clearest markers of post-traumatic growth. They unpack the neuroscience behind masking, the relationship between performance and attachment, why "little lies" often emerge from protection rather than manipulation, and how increasing nervous system capacity allows authentic self-expression without collapse or self-abandonment. The conversation also explores how psychedelic experiences often create temporary feelings of authenticity and forgiveness—but why those insights only become lasting change through preparation, regulation, and integration. Jennifer also shares a deeply personal reflection on self-forgiveness, relational repair, and how nervous system regulation creates the capacity to tell the truth, remain connected, and experience genuine freedom. In This Episode, We Discuss Why authenticity is a marker of nervous system health—not personality. How complex trauma teaches the body that honesty can threaten attachment. The neuroscience behind masking, performance, and emotional editing. Why perfectionism is a survival strategy rather than a character trait. The relationship between authenticity and post-traumatic growth. How chronic self-suppression increases allostatic load and nervous system stress. Why "little lies" often function as protective nervous system adaptations. The difference between visibility and authentic expression. Oversharing versus authentic vulnerability. How nervous system capacity changes relationships. Why psychedelic insight alone does not create lasting transformation. The role of preparation and integration after psychedelic experiences. Self-forgiveness as a nervous system practice rather than a mindset. Why shame blocks neuroplasticity and learning. Attunement, emotional processing, and authentic change. Forgiveness without bypassing accountability.

Shame is one of the most powerful forces shaping the nervous system. It can quietly influence how we think, relate, perform, heal, and even how we experience ourselves. Yet most approaches treat shame as something to challenge cognitively rather than something that has become embodied through years of protective adaptations. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof explore the neuroscience of self-compassion and why it is not simply "being nice to yourself." Self-compassion is a neurobiological intervention that changes brain function, increases emotional regulation, reduces threat activation, and creates the conditions for genuine nervous system change. Together, they unpack why shame becomes wired into the brain, how protective survival responses reinforce shame over time, and why healing requires more than insight. Through the lens of Neurosomatic Intelligence (NSI), they explain how creating safety within the nervous system allows new neural pathways to develop, making lasting transformation possible. If you've ever struggled with perfectionism, chronic self-criticism, people-pleasing, burnout, or the feeling that you're somehow "not enough," this conversation offers both the neuroscience and the practical tools to begin rewiring those deeply learned patterns. In This Episode What shame actually is from a nervous system perspective How chronic shame changes brain function and reinforces survival patterns The difference between guilt, shame, and healthy accountability Why self-compassion is a biological process—not positive thinking How self-criticism activates threat physiology The neuroscience behind safety, neuroplasticity, and emotional regulation Why insight alone rarely resolves shame How early attachment experiences shape lifelong self-perception The relationship between self-compassion and resilience Practical ways to begin rewiring shame through Neurosomatic Intelligence Why shame is often an adaptive survival strategy rather than a character flaw How your nervous system learns patterns of self-protection Why changing your internal dialogue without changing physiology often doesn't last How compassion supports neuroplasticity and nervous system regulation Why healing requires increasing capacity—not forcing change Small practices that help shift the nervous system toward safety and connection     Featured in This Episode Throughout this conversation, we mention the following resources:

In November 2024, 15-year-old Tripp Brazeale was found hanging from a tree in the middle of the woods of Forrest City, Arkansas. His death was quickly ruled a suicide, but in the weeks and months that followed, details of the case began to emerge that led Tripp's family, friends, and a private investigator to realize things might not be as clear-cut as they were led to believe.

Blake and Jeb crash headlong into S05E04 of In Search Of... on the topic of Daredevil Death Wish. Episode Summary This In Search Of episode asks a surprisingly straightforward question for this show: what drives daredevils to risk their lives? Rather than chasing aliens or cryptids, the episode plays it remarkably straight - functioning more as a documentary about stunt performers than the paranormal-adjacent fare we've come to expect. After a montage of vintage stock footage the episode profiles several working daredevils: Pat Jackson, a 42-year-old housewife who rides motorcycles through flaming boards; Roger Kober, a 22-year-old whose "slide for life" goes wrong on camera; Hank Wise and his "Iron Man" act (letting a truck drive over his body); and Chuck Strange, a demolition derby natural turned pickup-truck pilot whose Astrodome crash nearly killed him. The episode's most substantive segment features Kim Kahana's stunt school in California, where the veteran stuntman trains young performers in the difference between a daredevil ("a guy who just says, let's do it") and a professional who uses illusion and safety. Psychologist Dr. Samuel Z. Klausner provides the academic frame, describing stress-seeking as almost addictive - the euphoria of overcoming fear becomes a need that grows stronger with each attempt. Notably, the episode is produced by the same team behind That's Incredible!, yet takes a far more restrained, documentarian approach than that show's sensationalist style. The result is one of the most credible episodes of In Search Of we've encountered - and, consequently, one of the least weird. **EXTENSIVE NOTES AT PATREON**

In this episode of NOON we have Christopher.He started his fire service career on September 11th, 2001 and the lessons began immediately. Christopher shares how a quadruple fatality early in his career shaped the way he approaches hard calls, mental health, and longevity in EMS.We talk about cultural competence when serving Amish communities, the importance of family-centered care, and how maturity changes the way you practice medicine. Christopher opens up about overcoming fear in pediatric emergencies, how a neonatal resuscitation course shifted his confidence, and why he's now focused on helping other providers lower their “pucker factor.”From pediatric readiness and conference stages to building real community online, this conversation is about growth: clinically, emotionally, and professionally.Podcast: ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/1vAokfqG5aifoRBKk9MAUh?si=T8DipSBCQzWfOeiBW3h-Vw⁠FB Page: https://m.facebook.com/groups/nineoneonenonsense/?ref=shareInstagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/911nonsense/⁠X: ⁠https://twitter.com/911Nonsense⁠Bonfire Merch: https://www.bonfire.com/store/nine-one-one-nonsense/?utm_source=copy_link&utm_medium=store_page_share&utm_campaign=nine-one-one-nonsense&utm_content=defaultContent Warning: This episode contains discussions about death, including graphic and potentially triggering details.

How to Build Resilience During Hard Times: Hope Is Not Canceled Note: This episode discusses suicide and mental health.    Have you ever been in a season of life so heavy that you genuinely couldn't see a way through — or watched someone you love disappear into that darkness and not known what to do? That feeling of helplessness is more common than most of us admit. And the silence around it is costing lives. Resilience isn't something certain people are just born with. It's a skill, and most of us were never taught how to build it. For so many high-achievers, the pressure to appear strong means struggling alone, missing the signals in the people around them, and reaching a breaking point long before they ask for help. In this episode, Blake sits down with Kristen Christy, co-creator of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline and Master Resilience Trainer, to talk about how to build resilience during hard times, what to say when someone you care about is struggling, and why hope is never as far away as it feels.   Episode Highlights Resilience Is a Skill, Not a Personality Trait  [03:40] - Kristen's story: stroke, suicide loss & a missing child  [38:21] - How to be intentional about building resilience before the storm hits  [42:00] - Reframing "NO" as Next Opportunity & sentence shifters that change everything What People Get Wrong About Struggling  [15:46] - Why most of us are silently carrying more than we show  [16:30] - How anxiety shows up as overwork and why we celebrate it instead of seeing it [35:01] - Why shame is the most harmful thing we do to ourselves & others How to Support Someone Who Is Struggling  [09:00] - The ACE framework: Ask, Care, Escort  [10:30] - Why you should use your EAP and how to call 988 for a friend  [30:00] - Small gestures that can save a life  The Role of Hope in Getting Through Hard Times  [34:19] - "When we lose hope, that's where everything falls apart" — Blake [34:42] - Kristen's HOPE acronym: Hold On, Pain Eases & Help One Person Every Day  [41:00] - Borrowing hope when your own hope chest is empty   Powerful Quotes "When we lose hope, that's where everything falls apart." — Blake Schofield "Most people don't want to die. They want to want to live." — Kristen Christy "Resilience is moving from challenge to challenge without losing hope." — Blake Schofield "It takes nothing away from a burning candle to light another candle." — Kristen Christy   Guest Resources Website: KristenChristyCares.com Instagram: @kristen.christy.cares LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/kristenchristy 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 (you can call for a friend)   Resources Mentioned   Let's explore what's possible for your team: If your company is investing in burnout, wellness or adaptability initiatives, but seeing rising burnout, disengagement, or retention risk, it may be time to address the root cause.

With everything going on in the world, it makes sense that some of us want to check out. But at what cost?In this episode, host Brittany Luse is dissecting our current obsession with numbing ourselves to the moment and tuning out. This so-called “numb girl” attitude and aesthetic is defined by detachment, irony, and a world weary cynicism. Think the "Gen Z pout," "expressionless Botox chic,” a deadpan voice, or selfies with a vacant gaze. Of course, It appears effortless and nonchalant, but it's highly curated and self-aware — it's the perfect mask for avoiding humiliation in a world that is always there to judge you. But is avoiding the pain of the world good for us?Brittany is joined by writer Rayne Fisher-Quann aka Internet Princess and freelance cultural critic Sophie Lou Wilson to get into why all the cool girls are dissociating and what we lose when we numb ourselves to the world around us.(0:00) News fatigue, detachment, & irony are cooler than ever(5:02) Gucci runways to political nihilism: numbness went mainstream(10:15) Lobotomy Chic: an ironic joke turned beauty trend(14:57) The privilege of dissociating. Who can afford to disconnect?(18:08) Is numbness a form of feminist resistance?(20:15) How to un-numb and reconnect with humanityThis episode contains mentions of suicide.

With Blayne on assignment, Lester Holt talks with Senior Producer Allison Orr and Producer Ann Preisman about Blayne's latest episode, "Malice." Just over a year into his new marriage, Jake Embert was found dead from what would quickly be ruled a self-inflicted gunshot. Jake's family did not accept the ruling, believing he had been killed by his new wife.  They hired a private investigator who presented his findings to authorities, resulting in Jake's manner of death being changed to homicide. Susan Embert was charged with her husband's murder and eventually found guilty and sentenced to life. Allison and Ann discuss the credentials needed to become a coroner and play an extra clip of Blayne confronting Susan about a Facebook post she made in the days following her husband's death. Plus, Lester and Ann answer your questions from social media.  This episode discusses suicide.
