    Right Where You’re Supposed To Be

    Nancy shares how her marriage, subsequent divorce, and her grandmother’s final days in hospice forced her to confront unhealthy coping, heavy drinking, and the fear of repeating childhood patterns in front of her kids. She talks about her grandmother’s journey from an unschooled girl in El Salvador to a beloved businesswoman and community anchor, and how those roots inspired Nancy to use her voice and multiply the blessings she was given. They also touch on the power of being still (with a nod to Psalms 46:10), the mental side of letting loved ones go, and the quiet suffering that comes from staying in situations just to protect the status quo. Takeaways:  Painful seasons (like divorce and grief) can position you to show up more fully for the people who need you most.You may only recognize you were “right where you were supposed to be” after the storm has passed.Staying in a relationship, job, or role just to protect others’ feelings can lead to silent suffering for everyone involved.Unhealthy coping—like heavy drinking—can be a signal that your life feels out of control and something deeper needs to change.Asking “What am I avoiding?” can reveal the exact things keeping you stuck in the wrong situation.Families sometimes need to give loved ones permission to let go at the end of life so they don’t suffer longer than necessary.Being still—rather than constantly distracting yourself—creates space to see what’s really important now.MUSIC LICENSE CERTIFICATE: Envato Elements Item Item Title: Healthy EatingItem URL: https://elements.envato.com/healthy-eating-VNN4M4PAuthor Username: CrazyTunesLicensee: Marvin BeeRegistered Project Name: Unhealthy PodcastLicense Date: January 3rd, 2026Item License Code: XPFS6HD54W === About the Unhealthy Podcast Hosted by Marvin Bee (Uncle Marv), the Unhealthy Podcast dives into real conversations about health, wellness, and everyday habits that impact how we live, work, and age.

    Running From Grief to Healing

    Nancy shares how being a single mom, starting a business, and caring for her sick grandmother forced her to ask, “What matters most right now?” and to choose capacity over hustle for the sake of her mental health and nervous system. Marv offers his own framework from a Lou Holtz story—WIN: “What’s Important Now”—and explains how that guides his choices when work collides with caring for his mom and other family responsibilities. The conversation becomes a real-time example of prioritizing stress management, emotional health, and boundaries over non-stop productivity. Takeaways You can’t take care of everyone else if you never put your own “oxygen mask” on first.​It’s okay—and sometimes necessary—to step back from business growth and focus on survival and capacity.​“What’s Important Now” is a powerful filter for making decisions when work and family collide.​Listening to your body when it demands rest is a crucial health habit.​Unresolved grief and fear of loss can keep you stuck in unhealthy partnerships and coping strategies.​It’s possible to look back on hard decisions without regret, recognizing that you did the best you could with what you knew.​Part of healing is growing your capacity to hold more without collapsing—emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.=== MUSIC LICENSE CERTIFICATE: Envato Elements Item Item Title: Healthy EatingItem URL: https://elements.envato.com/healthy-eating-VNN4M4PAuthor Username: CrazyTunesLicensee: Marvin BeeRegistered Project Name: Unhealthy PodcastLicense Date: January 3rd, 2026Item License Code: XPFS6HD54W === About the Unhealthy Podcast Hosted by Marvin Bee (Uncle Marv), the Unhealthy Podcast dives into real conversations about health, wellness, and everyday habits that impact how we live, work, and age.

    Struggling to Feel at Home? Build Your Own Community

    This episode centers on how connection and community shape both workplace culture and personal wellbeing. Lori Saitz shares how she helps companies use internal podcasts to improve communication and build culture, while also telling her story of moving from digital nomad life to creating a grounded, community-focused life in Charlotte. Gratitude, intentional relationships, and honest storytelling run through the whole conversation, from leadership communication to personal health. Top Takeaways Internal podcasts act as a modern replacement for company newsletters and sporadic town halls, giving leaders a direct, human way to communicate with employees.Lori’s “core four” focus—culture, communication, connection, and community—guides short, weekly 15‑minute internal episodes that employees can easily consume.These internal shows are especially powerful for midsize companies and distributed teams (remote workers, people in trucks, manufacturing staff) who can’t always attend live meetings.Gratitude and grounding practices can be woven into workplace content, helping people reset before or after stressful meetings and stay more centered.Lori’s own shift from nomading to settling in Charlotte highlights the importance of intentionally building community and creating a “nest” for emotional health.Relationships change as people grow; part of staying healthy and authentic is accepting when certain friendships are no longer aligned.Social connection and a sense of purpose are major contributors to longevity and wellbeing, often outweighing purely nutritional or medical factors.=== MUSIC LICENSE CERTIFICATE: Envato Elements Item Item Title: Healthy EatingItem URL: https://elements.envato.com/healthy-eating-VNN4M4PAuthor Username: CrazyTunesLicensee: Marvin BeeRegistered Project Name: Unhealthy PodcastLicense Date: January 3rd, 2026Item License Code: XPFS6HD54W === About the Unhealthy Podcast Hosted by Marvin Bee (Uncle Marv), the Unhealthy Podcast dives into real conversations about health, wellness, and everyday habits that impact how we live, work, and age.
