41. A Mission to End Human Trafficking: The Story of Guardian Group - Jeff Keith Nov 16, 2020

Show notes

Meet Jeff. He's on a mission to disrupt U.S. sex trafficking networks and protect America’s children. Why? Because human trafficking is fastest growing crime in the world right now. "The enslavement of people is the fastest growing crime is not normal. And it’s not ok." Hard to discuss, but THIS right here requires community to eradicate it. Let's do our part, friends.

38. Real Talk: Anxiety, Imposter Syndrome + Finding Acceptance - Dr. Amanda Burke Nov 09, 2020

Show notes

It's the week after the US elections, and there was really only one thing we wanted to focus on giving our community: healing. So we brought in the big guns.

Meet Dr. Burke. Not only is she wicked smart as a clinical psychologist, but she's also the most frank, tell-it-like-it-is nurturer and virtual hugger you'll meet. As host of the Psych Junkie Podcast, she talks about the stuff that we don't typically share but need to. She'll get vulnerable about herself too, and show us how there's healing AND strength in that vulnerability. We are here for it and for healing ourselves and those around us. We hope it will make your heart feel a little fuller today
