15. ACCOUNTABILITY
26:18||Season 3, Ep. 15Is it a coincidence that the Labor Day released episode for a podcast typically on Fridays is about accountability? Not at all! Here's a very thorough take on accountability; the challenges it has presented/presents, and why it's a focal point of my recovery AND personal growth journey!Presented by Big Andy MediaMusic by Big Andy Media14. GRIEF
23:04||Season 3, Ep. 14Grief, emergencies, and trauma tend to cross paths from time to time... I discuss grief [and slide a bit into trauma as well] on today's episode, while also talking about a family emergency that occurred early on this past weekend. For the most part, they tie together.Presented by Big Andy Media.Music by Big Andy Media.13. MEDITATION
22:06||Season 3, Ep. 13Meditation has been an essential tool for me to stay grounded and continue to grow over the past two years, and the last several days are a perfect example. This was an interesting week for me, with a wider range of high and low points than in the previous several weeks. In this episode, I discuss several forms of mediation, how and why I choose to use them, and what benefits I've noticed from using meditation for coping and incorporating into my routine.Presented by Big Andy MediaMusic by Big Andy Media12. STIGMAS, STEREOTYPES, & GENERALIZATIONS
30:07||Season 3, Ep. 12There's no question that we are all aware of various stigmas out there, and the harm that they can cause. I discuss the issue with categorizing/judging people on a single commonality, as well as my struggles and successes with facing stigmas, stereotypes, and generalizations on both ends of the topic.Presented by Big Andy MediaMusic by Big Andy Media11. CONTENT vs COMPLACENT
19:07||Season 3, Ep. 11Far too often, people hear the word content, and confuse it with complacent. In this episode, I dive in and discuss both as they relate to my journey to help differentiate the two. *Spoiler* There's a significant difference between the two! There's another state as well that I briefly mention, and will discuss further in an upcoming episode.A Big Andy Media presentation.10. SHAME
22:05||Season 3, Ep. 10Shame is a topic I've frequently mentioned, as it played a significant role during the stretch of my darkest moments. It's time to discuss this toxic feeling, and address the consequences it carries.A Big Andy Media presentation.(Originally recorded/released as a video-cast)
