    Kidnapped in Romania, House Burned down in London, Drunk in South Korea, Cocaine, Borderline Personality Disorder, RockStars and...Musuems? "Sober Barbie," Dani Megaffin Will Entertain and Inspire You

    I am so excited for y'all to meet Danielle Megaffin. I briefly connected with Danni at Dopeycon and stayed in touch through socials - and I'm so glad we did! Her story is incredible - partying her way across Europe, dating rock stars, traveling the world and of course, snorting copious amounts of cocaine ;) What began as glitz and glamour eventually became grimy, chaotic and tragic. After a physical assault that left her spiritually broken and defeated, Danni finally surrendered. Sobriety hasn't been continuous, but her recovered life is a testament that sobriety doesn't have to be linear to be a life saving and valuable journey. After one year sober, Danni relapsed four months ago, and opens up about the circumstances surrounding her relapse and what she is doing differently this time. Now in sobriety, Danni is combining her two passions - recovery and museums!

    I am very excited to introduce y'all to my beautiful friend, Sam. Sam was my last "bunkie" in institutions.

In and out now for a the past decade, Sam has made incredible progress...and then used again anyway. Her parents have had custody of her son since 2014 and we talk about the complicated mix of guilt and gratitude involved in that situation. I love Sam, she now has 15 months and I am so proud of her.

    Learning to Make Meth at Age 8, First Pistol at Age 9, Indicted at 17 for Running Prostitues, Manufacturing and Distributing...Mackenzie's Story is a Story of SURVIVAL and Healing

    Interview begins at 4:07 I already know y'all are gonna text and DM me that today's episode is your "new favorite!"  I had the opportunity to meet and chat with Mackenzie Selby, a woman in recovery since 2009. Mackenzie was the victim of every type of abuse a child can experience. Her mother was a stripper and drug dealer, her grandfather (who was the primary father figure in her life) was a member of the MC Iron Horseman in Memphis, TN. Mackenzie was gifted her first gun around 7 or 8 years old and her mother began teaching her how to make meth at a young age. At age 17, Mackenzie faced either 5 years in adult prison or going to rehab for one year. She chose rehab and has been sober ever since. With zero intention of actually changing her life, Mackenzie is a great example that the program works for those who do it...regardless of feelings about it. I can't wait to hear what y'all think!

    Hootie & The Blowfish Drummer Jim Sonefeld! Almost Peeing on Bob Dylan, Landing Spycraft in Iraq, Smoking Weed with Willie Nelson, the Ultimate Cocaine & Alcohol Rock Star Journey

    I am so excited for y'all to hear my interview with Hootie & The Blowfish drummer Jim Sonefeld! Jim has been the drummer for Hootie & The Blowfish since 1993, and he actually wrote their hit song "Hold My Hand." Jim lived the ultimate rock star life and I LOVED his book, ⁠"Swimming with the Blowfish"⁠ Convincing himself for years that he couldn't possibly be an alcoholic or an addict was easy - he was a successful musician with multiple home, multiple cars and platinum album sales. At forty years old, his four year old daughter said something that moved him so much, he finally made some changes. Let me know what y'all think!

    Body Building, DJing, Empty 40s, Infidelity, Depression, A Near Fatal Car Accident and the Wisdom of Old School Midwest Twelve Step Old Timers

    Today's interview is with one of our own from the Nod Pod community, Chuck Zamzow.  Chuck grew up in the midwest and began drinking alcoholically after catching his wife having an affair in his early twenties. The next several years of Chuck's life continued to spiral until a near fatal car accident in 2008 scared him enough to finally stay sober.  Working with mentors and "old timers" in Twelve Step has given Chuck incredible wisdom and insight into the steps and the program of Alcoholics Anonymous. I learned so much from Chuck and I know you guys will too. Let me know your thoughts! DM me on ⁠Instagram⁠ Connect with Chuck on ⁠Instagram⁠ Connect with me on ⁠TikTok⁠
