    Cindy Van Arnam - S1E4

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Off the Script & Over the Bar, I sit down with Cindy Van Arnam to talk about addiction recovery, rebuilding your life, filmmaking, self-awareness, and what it truly means to become a free thinker in a world that constantly tries to think for you. We dive into personal struggle, creativity, healing, perspective, and the uncomfortable, but necessary, process of confronting yourself in order to grow. It’s honest, reflective, occasionally chaotic thanks to some technical difficulties, and exactly the kind of conversation this podcast was built for.  Support the show

    Failure & Motivations Before Rising - S1E3

In this episode, we explore how hardship shapes us and what it really takes to get back up after the fall. With a little wisdom from the Dragon Warrior and your friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man, we’re reminded of one truth every hero knows: falling is part of the journey. Rising is the choice. Enjoy.

    Trust & Purpose - S1E1

    Send us Fan Mail This episode explores trust, finding purpose, and pushing past the fear of hearing your own voice, with reflections sparked by Train Dreams. It’s vulnerable, slightly self-roasty, and a reminder that showing up imperfectly still counts. Support the show
