In celebration of our fourth anniversary, we’re re-releasing one of our favorite episodes from the past year. We’ve been taught to think of anxiety as though we have a mental disease. Anxiety is primarily a physiological reaction. If we can sympathize over those fight or flight moments, we can start to retrain your brain and manage that moment in a different way. In this episode, Dr. Graham Taylor speaks with Faust Ruggiero. Faust is a seasoned professional with nearly 40 years of experience in counseling and psychology. His career has spanned a wide array of settings, from clinics for deaf children to prisons and major corporations. As the President of the Community Psychological Center in Bangor, Pennsylvania, Faust developed the Process Way of Life counseling program, now featured in his award-winning book, “The Fix Your Anxiety Handbook”. This program offers a comprehensive approach, addressing over fifty internal human processes to help individuals overcome life's challenges. Faust's expertise has earned him recognition nationally and internationally, and he hosts the radio show “Fix It With Faust”. In 2023, he released the second installment of The Fix Yourself Empowerment Series, titled “The Fix Your Anxiety Handbook”. Faust is committed to improving lives through his innovative counseling and personal development programs. We’re excited to have Faust with us today to discuss anxiety, desperation, and his book “The Fix Your Anxiety Handbook”.

Support is steadfast, ever-present, regardless of circumstances or company. In every moment, in every trial, it patiently awaits. Sometimes, it's about humbly setting aside pride, embracing vulnerability, and simply reaching out. Take that step, for help is there, ready to guide you forward. In this episode, Sharlee Dixon speaks with Bruce W. Brackett. Bruce, also known as BWB (dot) positivity, is a social media personality, author, entrepreneur, self-taught visual artist, and international motivational speaker. Originally from southwest Montana, BWB moved to NYC at the age of 18 to pursue his dreams of being on Broadway. After many distractions, making it to Off-Broadway, and struggling with addictions and mental health, BWB found his true calling and his way back to sobriety through art and by advocating for recovery to his online audience of over 1.2 million people. This online community of recovery fuels BWB’s love, passion, creativity, and mission to share positivity and the possibilities of recovery. After many tries in Rehab and Outpatient therapy care, Bruce has done the work for himself to honestly live a better life. Now that he is on this side of recovery, he finds a responsibility to give that back to others. We’re excited to have Bruce with us to discuss overcoming addiction, trauma recovery, motivational speaking, and his book “How to Breathe While Suffocating”.
