Scott Morris is a Regional Vise President of sales with AURA.
AURA is a digital identity theft and fraud protection company that aids in the safekeeping of your finances, personal info for you and your family and is very easy to understand and is simple to set up and is your one-stop shop when it comes to digital protection for you and yours.
AURA keeps your identity safe with very extensive monitoring of your personal information, accounts, and much more. They will monitor everything and alert you in real-time to all new inquires on your credit file, like new credit cards or bank loans.
I've personally used many different services in the past for my digital protection but never have I seen a company that does it all under one umbrella. AURA has gone as far as acquiring other companies to ensure a smooth and easy process in order to protect you and your family's digital fingerprint. Like identity theft protection, Financial Fraud Protection, Devic and Network Protection (VPNs), and in my opinion the icing on the cake the Family Protection.
Your family can rest assured they can stay safe from malware, including viruses, ransomware, trojans and so many harmful threats that can not only cause you to have your identity stolen but also lose sleep and cause you to jump through hoops in order to fix the issue.
AURA lets you set up and protect yourself and up to 10 family members all in under one plan. You'll get alerted to fraud and breaches of online accounts and credit files, plus every adult member gets $1 Million in identity theft insurance. AURA will notify you if your child's Social Security Number or online accounts have been stolen or found on the dark web.

We all need someone to vent to and get advice from but sometimes that turns into a one-way street and you become that person that is always getting hit up and having everyone else's problems dumped in your lap.
Helping others is always a great thing and you should always be willing to hear someone out and help them through their issues but when it becomes repetitive on the same issues from the same person it can become exhausting and take a toll on your own mental health. especially when an individual is always and only calling when they have issues it may be a sign it's time to set boundaries.
Tim and I talk about how we deal with some of these situations and our past experiences on people who tend to use and abuse the access you give them. Setting boundaries is very important in these types of situations not only for your own mental health but to the other person's mental health. It's important to lay out your expectations on your limited time and if that individual is heeding your advice or not, if they are not taking your advice then what is the point, to even having a conversation.
Always remember whether you are the one reaching out or the one being called to always be considerate of the other's time and mental health.
Say to your self "my Mental Health Is important'.

John Gebretatose is Eritrean born but American raised who at an early age had to learn coping skills in order to deal with the hands that life deals us.
John opens up with me about his mother having schizophrenia and have to care for her at an early age and using laughter to help him cope with all that he had going on at a very young age. His father was around but was dealing with his own demons of alcoholism and not really understanding his wife's illness and how to deal with it was all too much for him to cope with.
John found comedy as a form of escape and a way to channel his feelings and emotions through laughter. While performing stand up he found his new passion and love in the form of Improv. While doing so he realized a community was needed for Black comedians in the Improv world and so he helped create BlackOut Improv. After a long and awaited time away due to the pandemic, they will be performing again at HUGE Theater in South Minneapolis.

This is a very special episode for me not just as a Veteran, Ranger brother, friend but as someone who has suffered tremendously from depression, PTSD, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts but also planning out those acts.
I asked Lora Irving and Edward Goff to sit down with me and talk about their son and brother Aaron Goff.
Aaron and I served together in 1st Ranger Battalion and I had the honor and privilege to serve right alongside him as his junior Fire Team Leader.
Aaron was a very outgoing individual and was always in a good uplifting mood. It was very hard to get him to angry but if you did you definitely did something wrong. He always saw the bright side of things but was serious when the time called for it.
I decided to ask his family to sit down with me and speak about Aaron and talk about the type of person he was growing up, what led to him joining the Army.
I really wanted to focus on the changes that were happening at all major stages of his career from the beginning and the toll the Army and the combat deployments were having on his mental health. It is never easy to notice these signs and actually realize that a loved one is really suffering as bad as they are inside.
Please always listen to your loved ones and actually hear what they are saying and let them know that they are loved and that everything will be ok. We can't force anyone to seek help or make them talk to someone and actually at times that might make things worse.
So what do you do?
That is why we have these conversations to hear what others would do have done or wished they would have done. it's never a cut and clear answer but together we can defiantly bring these questions to the forefront and help those that are suffering and give others ways to intervene to save their loved ones.
If you are suffering and have no one to speak to please DM me on all my Social media that I will leave below.
Love and Respect

I grew up in the St. Louis Park and Hopkins Community. I went to Junior High and some of the High school in Hopkins. My daughters and stepkids go to Hopkins and I moved back to Hopkins with my wife after my retirement from the Army. So ensuring that the right person is in the office that runs my city is very important to me and my family.
Patrick Hanlon is the right person for the job, he is someone that truly cares about the community that he grew up in and wants it to thrive and be a leader on many issues that the people truly care about.
Patrick talks to me about many of the issues that are important to him and what he sees for the future of Hopkins looks like.
Patrick comes from humble beginnings with a mother that became very ill when he was a young age but before her passing had already set important values and morales into him and that was to love and care for everyone and most importantly to always give back to the community and always listen to those around him and act with his heart.
This was very different from my usual episodes but definitely a great episode on many levels, this is an episode that is a must listen and get some great insight into the mind of someone that wants nothing but great things for his community and someone that is taking action into making a change on a bigger scale for his community.
