Request access only on Fireside to be part of the live show! Firesidechat.com/daniellapark As 2022 comes to a close, it appears a new breed of health-conscious sub-species has reared its head for all to see. Egotism and vanity have been attributed to the practice of fitness and physical health, but it has been retorted as unnecessary bias from a crowd, who may not have all its ducks together in the first place. And the Us vs. Them-thought process was any different maybe? Here’s s...

EP34 "Bling Empire" Star Kevin Kreider Talks About Reinvention, Sobriety, Identity and Sans! You don't want to miss this great episode!

December 07, 2022 22:52 - 32 minutes - 20.4 MB

Reinvention: Identity, Sobriety and The Wheel with Kevin Kreider @kevin.kreider Broadcast journalist and pioneer of BBC’s HardTalk Chris Sackur once made the astute observation that artistic types are confined to a single label, as it is more convenient to survey the skill of an artist to the public, but . . . Art doesn’t have limits, only small minds do as is paraphrased by Stanislavski. On this show and many subject programs, pay attention long enough and you’ll notice that seekers a...

November 30, 2022 00:45 - 34 minutes - 23.3 MB

Rhyme to Rhyme, Beat to Beat of Recovery with Rami Matan Words of metered rhyme has been a pastime to get outage of inner - conflict or reflect Like with beat poetry, words have the propensity to make the audiences cry, think, become enraged and hopefully not kill anyone . . . There’s no such thing as justifiable homicide. Words also have the ability to give hope. The best thing about sobriety is words are made concrete with action . . . . . Or beats as the case May be. This is w...

EP29 Reverend Rex: Author, Minister Recovery Mentor Talks Suicide Epidemic, Heroin Addiction Biking

November 13, 2022 17:22 - 1 hour - 43.9 MB

How to know what Love is, a Love Story by Reverend Rex If you have been following this show for any measure of time, you’ll come to learn that child neglect and abuse may often have led to the breeding of drug addiction. Tiresome as it may seem to some in society, the curtain is pulled back and the faults of individuals are laid at their very feet. In contrast, judgment is reserved purely by the court judge and the judgment of the Deity. What is overlooked by society, is how we, the sober an...

EP29 Luc Zoratto: Running a Marathon 2 Sobriety

October 29, 2022 18:42 - 59 minutes - 37.4 MB

For both constituents of “normality” and early Recovery . . . Be honest it’s an unpopular war. In the Big Book, a passage is even dedicated to how simpler times have been, when the sanity of the first drink was the order of the day.  Now with all barriers stripped and deeds laid bare (don’t get any ideas), now an uncertain future looms on the horizon . . . Although that notion should be replaced with the beauty of the Savannah to indicate what potential is to be found. However, like bu...

EP28 Jessica Faulconnier Weis: Four Seasons of Sobriety in the Small Country of Luxembourg

October 29, 2022 18:09 - 37 minutes - 26.8 MB

The opposite of loneliness in addiction is a community in Recovery.

A noble quote from our previous guest Alex Talbot states that RecoverWE is CommUNITY. In the second to third year of the program, students and adherents are motivated to try their hand at starting their own meetings or even influencing of community. True to form, we stretch our wings...

October 09, 2022 17:00 - 55 minutes - 42.8 MB

We have Dareen Reed! A very informative episode if you are new or struggling in recovery or out of recovery! Recovery saved my life. I was broken. I was spiritually bankrupt. I had lost nearly everything. I had hit rock bottom several times but just kept digger deeper. I was at a crossroads, I had a choice, if I continued to use drugs and alcohol I would destroy myself and everyone around me as they watch me die. Or I could completely surrender to the disease of addiction and recovery. Rec...

EP25: Tim Lodgen- Fitness, Meditation & How Giving Back Has Helped Him Find His True Purpose In Life

August 28, 2022 23:27 - 1 hour - 35.3 MB

Another rather disconcerting dalliance with regard to addiction is its bedfellow of mental illness. A handful of criteria had been recorded as to be the sole cause of a mental disorder - brain injury, trauma sustained in a family setting, excessive bullying or worse yet . . . A curse of genetics. What is even more concerning is the after-effects that prolonged use of drugs and alcohol is a direct contributor to the development of such disorders NL. Anxiety, psychotic disorders such as sch...

In truth despite the media attention, courtesy of many books, film,s and TV productions over the last seminal amount of years - it comes to mind that audiences really cannot fathom what the lingering effects of abuse may seem like. Have you ever confused that still small voice in your head as the voice of God, however...

Legendary Comedian Craig Shoemaker Talks Recovery, God and Being Authentically Funny

August 17, 2022 00:51 - 55 minutes - 39.9 MB

You don't want to miss this one! 🌟🌟🌟 Laughter is the best medicine . . . A snigger, titter, or guffaw per day keeps the nuthouse farther away. Comedy is the essence, or rather the “tonic” that proves faithfully that a sense of humor is indeed life’s greatest equalizer. Not only an equalizer but also a practical healer. The Living Word, in the book of Psalms, states expressly: ”He who sits in the Heavens LAUGHS.” In itself, the verse dictates laughter has a healing factor - for bo...

"RHOC's" Braunwyn Windham-Burke: On Getting Sober & Staying Sober

July 24, 2022 01:07 - 26 minutes - 18.8 MB

On Getting Sober and Staying Sober - Braunwyn Windham-Burke If the pen is mightier than the sword . . . . Mightier still is the registered coil of the mic and the sure- shot barrel of a camera lens. Pioneer Steven Spielberg believed at one time that television held more potential than the big screen itself; that statement wouldn’t perhaps preclude the birthing of the concept of “unscripted” television. Reality TV in premise provides viewers with insight into how a person reacts to real-...

Mark Kendall: Great White Band Member Guitarist Talks About His New Life

July 03, 2022 20:58 - 43 minutes - 60.4 MB

The world of rock ‘n roll has been famed . . . Or rather notorious for the full-tilt subculture of recklessness, although that phase came and went in the same manner as the typewriter. Whether that notoriety has had a lingering effect from a combination of tabloid journalism, continued participation by misguided followers . . . . The actual truth behind the industry of hard rock today has seen a paradigm shift, regarding socio-economic issues and even the build of positive relationship ...

Jenna Dillulio: Breaking The Generational Cycle of Addiction

June 26, 2022 00:49 - 36 minutes - 22.9 MB

Breaking the Generational Cycle of Addiction with guest Jenna Dillulio on DIS LIve on Fireside! Addiction we’ve come to learn hops like a bunny rabbit from generation to generation sitting on each of the individuals with a similar last name like an 800-pound gorilla. The truth is certainly that a question should be raised how to break that cycle - by being only present? Do we cruise through like a smooth plane ride from day to day in a quasi-sedated manner? Or can we faithfully embrace...
