Show notes

This Beyond Well was created from our Chasing Chaos interview with Andrew Shayde, a fan favorite on the hit Discovery series, Naked and Afraid. Andrew came out as a gay man to his Baptist parents, traversed the wild ride of the Amazing Race and then decided to test himself even further by stripping down and enduring the African wild. The hardest part? Overcoming the fear, sleep deprivation and psychological distress of extreme conditions. Andrew's five steps for survival are genius.

Ep.128/ Stephanie Thornton Plymale/American Daughter Feb 15, 2021

Show notes

Stephanie Thornton Plymale lived in a car with her mentally ill mother, became a ward of the state of California and an abused foster child, endured multiple car wrecks and physical traumas, and is one of the most optimistic, cheerful people I know. How do we bounce forward from trauma? How do we work with the anxiety and fear in our body that is created by trauma in order to understand and assimilate what happened to us? For Stephanie, it was investigating the onset of her mother's multiple personality disorder and realizing the extent of intergenerational trauma. American Daughter is above all, a book about hope.
