Here is the link to my Introduction Playlist on YouTube. I created this series so new viewers could spend time learning and listening to our primary purpose of The InBetween Man Podcast, Who the host is, Where can you find the content and How the podcast is going to use different social media outlets to help create a new narrative for who and what the Modern Man may be going forward.

This week I published a podcast episode, titled, “How Do You Know If You’ve Hit An Emotional Bottom?" The link to the episode is below. I edited the last 30 minutes of DJ Shipley’s interview with Shawn Ryan. DJ goes into great detail describing and giving us an example of how someone experienced hitting an emotional bottom. What DJ was willing to do and what DJ wasn’t willing to do and how the consequences for “NOT” being willing to share our secrets could impact our state of mental health. The link to the episode is below.

This week I also published a podcast episode titled, “Can You Identify With My Pain?”. The examples I provided were specific and hopefully left you with a sense of finality. I believe, men will rarely share their true feelings about any past or present emotional trauma until they have reached a point where they can no longer “keep it” inside.

In this episode, I provide the Top 5 dynamics addicts and alcoholics may find themselves in before they are ever ready to admit they could have a drug or alcohol problem. If you’re not an addict or alcoholic, these examples may seem extreme and don’t apply to you. If that is the case, good. The reason for sharing these dynamics is to hopefully widen your perspective on how deep some drug addicts and alcoholics are willing to go to keep their habit going. 

Being able to identify with one or more habits, behaviors or emotions in a less extreme sense may compel you to investigate further on your own with help from a professional counselor, the clergy, a close friend, loved ones or a recovery expert. Understanding the cause and effects of our behaviors may help us to be more accountable for our actions. Not anyone else's. 

This episode should be considered a “point of reference” you could use personally or share with a friend or maybe understand why someone in your family might be acting the way there are and you suspect they are using. PERSPECTIVE, PERSPECTIVE and PERSPECTIVE. I’ll see ya in there. 

Keep smiling,
