Welcome to Season 2!I'm honored to kick this season off with my best friend's story. "Seeing Kendall" will be a two-part series. Afterward, there will be a 3 part series entitled "The Lighthouse" where our paths merge.Kendall's life as a child was not all it seemed to be.  Had you opened her front door, you would see a family living in emotional abuse constantly in a state of terror.  Their picture-perfect family was cracking at its seams.  Come see why she became the person who would save my life later on, but first, she had to save her own.  How'd she got through? The love and strength of a mother

Season 1 has come to an end, but Season 2 is right around the corner.  Please listen to hear my reflections on Season 1, and what's to come with Season 2.  Also, make sure to follow me on my Instagram "AuthenticityEP."

We've all been in them or know someone who has.  A toxic relationship can not only deter your happiness, but it can ruin your life.  So, how do we survive them? Listen to find out!

In the '70s, personal problems and mental health weren't something you just opened up and talked about.  You kept it quiet, you kept it moving, and you kept your mask on. Debbie knew something was wrong with her husband, but she had no idea how bad it was until she heard the gunshot that changed her life forever.  

With society constantly projecting a "fake" life, we often find it hard to be honest with those we love.  But, in all actuality, the hardest person to be honest with is ourselves.  I have found this to be true in my own life.  So many times, when I should have told people how I felt or my thoughts on things, I held back, and I not only hurt them by doing so, but more so, I almost destroyed myself.  

Social media can really wreak havoc on our minds.  For me, it was no different.  I bought into the life I "thought" I was supposed to have.  It had a slow burn on my life until I was completely consumed. What's interesting is when you hit the bottom of the barrel you expect no one there to relate, but that is where I found my biggest supporters...they all happened to be wearing orange jumpsuits.  Come and listen as I process through one of the hardest periods of my life.

In the last part of our series, we get to hear how two broken men decided to take back a city they helped to tear down.  Come and listen to how Chad and Jason decided to partner up and help men, like them, find their second chance. 

Who would have thought the lights of a police car would bring him peace? After 36 times of going to jail, this time was different. Come and listen as we finish Jason's story, and hear what familiar face happens to shows up at the door of his jail cell.

In this episode, we get to hear Jason's story.  For a while, he thought he was cursed as everyone around him died.  So, he turned to drugs to seek solace. After using and selling, he found himself at the worse place possible...until something miraculous happened.

Everyone thought my failure would kill me, but I'm still standing.  Society tells you if you fail, you don't deserve a second chance. Well, I have failed a lot in life, and in this podcast, I talk through those failures leading up to my biggest one.  I saw my name disgraced, my family and best friend suffer, and watched people walk away from my life.  But, after the earthquake of failure, those few people left took my arms and help me to stand back up.  To my family, Kendall, and Landon, I owe all.
