Andy's Chomping at the Bit

MEDITATION

Season 3, Ep. 13

Meditation 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.

  • 15. ACCOUNTABILITY

    26:18||Season 3, Ep. 15
    Is 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 Media
  • 14. GRIEF

    23:04||Season 3, Ep. 14
    Grief, 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.
  • 12. STIGMAS, STEREOTYPES, & GENERALIZATIONS

    30:07||Season 3, Ep. 12
    There'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 Media
  • 11. CONTENT vs COMPLACENT

    19:07||Season 3, Ep. 11
    Far 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. 10
    Shame 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)
  • 9. SEX ADDICTION

    25:00||Season 3, Ep. 9
    Sex is one of the least talked about addictions, and because of that, it's also one of the more misunderstood addictions (on top of the already existing stigmas addicts dealing with substances face). Today I'm discussing my journey with a focus on the mental challenges from my sex addiction.A Big Andy Media presentation.(Originally recorded/released as a video-cast)
  • *SPECIAL EDITION*

    19:30|
    Today's episode is completely independent, and deviates away to some extent from the more traditional structure of previous Andy's Chomping at the Bit episodes.Though based within a very heated topic (immigration), the focus goes beyond simple party lines, and rather seeks to share an understanding of certain consequences, and possibly even some common ground on what is unacceptable behavior.(Originally recorded/released as a video-cast)
