The Hope Straightahead Podcast - stories of brokenness finding hope in unexpected places.

Dr. Tim Stein, DC CACCP

This world is broken, but the good news is that there’s HOPE...it’s closer than you think, and we often find it (or it finds us) where we least expect it. That’s the idea of “Hope Straightahead” - real life stories of brokenness finding hope in unexpected places. Hi, I’m Dr Stein & having spent countless hours & over $200k in personal/professional development, I’ve concluded that I’m a work in progress...and so are you! I’d like to invite you to join me & some friends (expert, both professionally & practically) on this journey towards “better”; as we vulnerably press into this space of hope.

    4. "Dealing with Difficulty" (Part2) - "Growing Through Greif," with special guest Sarah Perrenoud.

    Its been said that if you know more than others in the room, you are an expert.  Nick and Sarah Perrenoud are experts in SO many ways and categories.   Very few, if any, people have experienced what they have... and I think it's safe to say, they would do it again in a heartbeat.  Tune in to this episode (4) as it is the second part of an interview I had the pleasure of doing with Sarah.  But before you do, if you haven't already, go back and listen to the first part (Episode 3). Joining me today in this episode of The Hope Straightahead Podcast is one of our closet family friends and a Mama that we admire more that words could say.  Her name is Sarah Perrenoud, and maybe you've heard their family's story before?  Her and her husband Nick adopted a son named Angel, and their story of finding hope in brokenness is nothing short of miraculous!  From being a micro-premie, to IV nutrition, adoption, a two year life expectancy, multiple organ failures, rejections, and transplants (on more than one occasion), cancer, isolation, masks, etc... they've endured a lot!  Yet, they remained anchored in hope!  You DO NOT want to miss this episode.  You might even want to listen more than once, and share it with everyone you know... especially those struggling right now! This episode is raw and real.  There is nothing held back, including my own tears. If you want to learn more about Angel's story, or perhaps how you can get connect to the Perrenoud family and help in their efforts to make this world a better place, especially for kids, check out these links: Team Angel: https://www.facebook.com/teamangelhope/ Angel's Hope: https://www.facebook.com/angelshope.org/

    1. “Hope Straightahead” with special guest Dr. MaryEllen Eller, MD.

    The greatest common demonstrator we all face as humans is brokenness, but not everyone finds hope.  In this very first episode of “The Hope Straightahead Podcast”, Dr Stein & Dr Eller discuss: Perfectionism Parenting Stress Shame Identity Self-Awareness Mental Health & Prevention Mindfulness the Enneagram (briefly) and a WHOLE bunch of other topics & practical steps towards becoming a “better you”; as we unpack this idea of “Hope Straightahead”, with our special guest Dr. MaryEllen Eller, MD. MaryEllen Eller graduated from Loma Linda University School of Medicine and completed psychiatric residency training at Loma Linda University Medical Center. She is a board certified Psychiatrist with speciality training in psychopharmacology and high performance medicine. MaryEllen has partnered with her husband, Nick Eller, DPT; together they have founded Rx Performance Therapy and The Performance Lab where they provide mental skills training and movement consultation services for individuals seeking non-pharmacologic interventions to optimize performance and pursue wellness. Additionally, MaryEllen provides psychiatric care in an inpatient setting where she oversees the care of individuals in acute psychiatric crisis. While MaryEllen is passionate about psychiatric care and the importance of preventative mental health, her highest calling and greatest joy comes from being the mother to two spirited children. Her greatest desire is to raise her children to understand the value of kindness and responsibility while embracing their God-ordained purpose. She intentionally reinforces the ideas “I can do hard things” and  “practice kindness” while attempting to model this for her children. In her free time, MaryEllen enjoys doing nothing. When she feels compelled to do something you can find her practicing latte art, sipping coffee, baking scones, off-roading with her family and feeling guilty about not exercising.
