In September 2018, I spoke with Hoke Kimball, author of Transitions: Collected Poems about Addiction and Recovery. He had stopped drinking in September 1989, and the poems in his book were written during his first years of trying to stay sober.
In August 2018, Karen Newell joined me for the first time. Karen is a co-founder of Sacred Acoustics, which makes meditation recordings built on binaural beats, and our conversation covered sound, meditation, gratitude, and what it means to treat the whole person.
In July 2018, I spoke with Jennifer Elizabeth Masters, a self-love coach and author, originally from Toronto, who now lives in a cottage on a horse ranch outside Santa Clarita, California.
In June 2018, I spoke with John Patrick Hart, who goes by Pat, a retired father from Maryland. Two of his four sons developed problems with drugs and alcohol. His older son died after many years of use, and his youngest went from detox to a long stay in recovery in West Palm Beach.
