    The Biggest Lie In American Politics?

    Everyone says voting third party is a wasted vote. But who benefits when voters believe they only have two choices? In this episode, I explain why I've been interviewing grassroots candidates from outside the political establishment and why expanding political awareness matters more than most people realize. This isn't about telling you who to vote for. It's about understanding the power of having options. #ThirdParty #IndependentVoters #Politics #Voting #FromDirtWeGrow __________________ *intro/outro audio: The Plot Thickens by Joshua Spacht Owner: Soundstripe, Inc.

    Too Many Children Of Veterans Fight Battles They Never Signed Up For

    A powerful and emotional interview with the daughter of a deceased veteran exposed to Agent Orange — and the lifelong health struggles she now faces because of it. Her father served his country. But decades later, the damage didn't stop with him. In this episode, my guest Jane and I, dive into the generational effects of Agent Orange, the healthcare battles families face, and the difficult reality many children and grandchildren of veterans are living through without support or recognition from the VA system. This conversation is bigger than one family. It raises questions about accountability, healthcare, sacrifice, and what happens when the consequences of war are passed down to the next generation. Who takes responsibility when service impacts generations? ______________________________ JOIN THE FROM DIRT WE GROW FAMILY - SUBSCRIBE/FOLLOW NOW! ______________________________ *intro/outro audio: The Plot Thickens by Joshua Spacht Owner: Soundstripe, Inc.

    You Can't Heal What You Refuse To Acknowledge

    We seem to accept anxiety and depression as personal problems — but what if they're actually responses to the societal and political climate we're living in?In this episode, I've invited Christine, a progressive counselor to the show. Her focus is across the lifespan — from kids and adolescents, to adults and healthcare workers — specializing in trauma, ADHD, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions.Together, we explore what therapists are seeing right now, why "nothing's happening in my town" doesn't mean nothing is happening to us; and how privilege, hypervigilance, and community play a part in affecting our mental health.From Midwest resilience to collective burnout, this episode challenges the idea that healing can happen in isolation — and asks what it really means to acknowledge reality rather than avoiding it. Or worse, mistreating it.__________________________JOIN THE FROM DIRT WE GROW FAMILY, SUBSCRIBE NOW! __________________________Find Christine on socials under the tag: Life_as_a_counselor __________________________*intro/outro audio: The Plot Thickens by Joshua SpachtOwner: Soundstripe, Inc.
