Mocha Latte Dante Sheppard & David Heiliger

Mitchell Goldstein is a friend of ours who has a great story and maybe even a greater voice. Mitchell has career in the world of medical marijuana as he currently works at a local dispensary. We get into his journey with marijuana, both legal and illegal, and how that’s shaped his journey. We also get into the confrontation where Dave asked Mitchell to step away from serving with the volunteer youth ministry staff a few years back. And in case you were interested, we had issues AGAIN with our attempt at video podcasting…so, sorry.

On this episode we have our friend Angel Jimenez talk about his weight loss journey and how it’s played a huge part of his entire adult life. We cover more topics like marriage, relocating, redemption, and cheese. Discussing one’s weight may be taboo but Angel is an open book on the subject. We’re hoping this talk brings light to some struggles that people face and we can be better prepared to know how to love and care for our friends who may be struggling with their health in this way.

Episode 14 features our friend Carolina Montenegro! She’s a Chilean-Canadian-American wife and mother of 3 beautiful kids. We get into her life as a mother, the responsibility it entails, and what does one dream about when your kids grow up? What is your personal identity outside of being a parent? What do you do when the kids are out of the house? This was recorded many months ago which is why we’re drinking egg nog.
