The Road Less Traveled

Episode 64 - Semantics

Ever feel like people don't know what they're talking about? Me too. I'm usually the first to say I have no idea what I'm saying, but a lot of people operate from a position of arrogance confused with confidence. This episode is a smattering of examples on why I'm losing my mind. Enjoy! -db

Episode 63 - Looper

Greetings! Ever feel caught in a loop? It's not groundhog day, or the movie Looper, but it could be addiction or avoidance. Today's episode is an update as well as light exploration of some of my biological family's addictions and habits and why being aware of the generational loop is important. As always, thank you for listening and being respectful. -db

Episode 62 - Prison Politics!

Everyone's talking about politics these days.... Don't worry! This episode is focused on the micro-politics that go on in jail and prison, not the macro-politics that apply to our nation our world (although I do try to tie the two together in my own meandering way). As always thank you for being respectful and listening. Enjoy!

Episode 61 - Suicide

Today's episode covers a very heavy topic, although my approach is more of an open discussion on the importance of providing not only context and transparency when reporting statistics, but also the responsibility people reporting these facts have on how they are relayed to us. You only get one chance to make a first impression, let it not be a misleading one. -db

Episode 59 - Episode 58 Follow Up

On this episode I add a few additional thoughts and context to my previous episode. Consider this the third part to a three part story arc. As always, thank you for tuning in and being respectful. - db

Episode 58 - The Big Story (PTSD - Revisited)

On this special episode of The Road Less Traveled I finally open up about one of the most traumatic experiences I had while incarcerated... and it wasn't even inside prison. After so many events over the last few years, I thought I would revist the topic of PTSD, especially due to incredibly recent events. As always, thank you for tuning in and being respectful. - db

Episode 57 - Motivation

Welcome back listeners! This episode is dedicated to my newfound motivation to improve not only this podcast, but myself in general. I'm finally to the point that I've been out of prison for a few years and can now start effectively planning week to week rather than just trying to make it day to day. (This isn't to say I wasn't planning for things down the road, but there's only so much you can realistically accomplish when you're trying to start over.) I also think I found my stride with the podcast. The recording sounds great, I just needed to adjust a few things and rethink how I was going about it. As always, thank you for listening! -db
