    S2Ep5. A Mental Health Check with Sunrise Counseling

    Mental health is something that we need to talk about more. With recent tragedies in our community we felt moved to make a series surrounding just this very topic. We have an opportunity to hear from Katie of Sunrise Counseling and Psychological Services, Brandon Liburd (DJ Be Eezy), Evan and myself on the personal journeys that brought us to this point. I appreciate the space to speak to you freely about some situations that I've death with and hope that in this episode you find comfort in this groups vulnerability. Strap in, we're going in on our first instillation of our mental health series. - C

    S2Ep4. Always Bet On The Underdog w/ Evan Vang!

    Well ladies and gentlemen, grab those oh shit handles, strap in and prepare for an episode from us like you've never experienced! It's time to take the "governor off", get down to the raw truth and unmask some SERIOUS social issues in our community. This week we have an opportunity to hear two amazing underdog stories about personal mental health journeys and perseverance through all odds. Evan Vang, Regional Manager for Boil Bay and now new operator of Bottlecraft Virginia Beach located in Hilltop, drops in to give us an overview and update on all the MAJOR news from his neck of the woods. We're also joined by ex bartender, comedian and fight promoter Kevin Bianchi Jr.! Who drops some hilarious, informative and big news that we are exclusively airing for YOU! In the wake of the tragic loss of one of our most talented local musicians and great friend of the community, we all bare our souls for the world to listen to in this episode. We've got some amazing things in the works for our community and plan on breaking the stigma behind understanding mental health this season. Be on the lookout for more information on the next episode! Now hold on tight, because this is about to get real.
