Dr. Alice Kerby on Addiction and Life Beyond the Pink Cloud

After suffering from severe stress while going through her doctorate, Dr. Alice fell into a downward spiral of alcohol abuse. This continued until she realized her problem, and she has been sober for three years since.

It’s this experience that led Dr. Alice to starting the Beyond the Pink Cloud podcast, where she talks to people that have overcome their own battles with substance abuse, as well as inspired others by living their best lives.

Topics up for discussion this week include:

Introducing Mental Health and Us

This week is a little different. As some of you might know, I also run a couple of other podcasts – one, as a host, and the other as a co-host. Today, I want to share an episode from the podcast I co-host, Mental Health and Us.

It originallystarted out as a solo hosted show by my wife, Jaclyn, and was called Mental Health and me. It shared self-care and wellness tips to help other mental health sufferers and their loved ones cope.

Jaclyn uses her 20 year battle with both depression and anxiety ...

Joenrhuz “JR” Tabanda on Everyday People and Everyday Stories

We wanted to give people hope, especially young people that may feel alone.

JR talks about what their goals were with the show, and how that’s taken shape, and how the pandemic gave them the opportunity to put these goals...

Season 4 is Coming, and Joining the Quite the Thing Podcast Network

So a funny thing happened on the way to getting Season 4 of Podcaster Stories ready – from personal and work life, to guests that weren’t really right for the show.

This resulted in the new season being delayed by about a month, which I apologize for. The good news is that Season 4 will be released next week, so I’m looking forward to sharing more awesome stories with you.

There’s also an update about the Quite the Thing podcast network that Podcaster Stories is now part of, and is very much ge...

In episode 2, I spoke with Roman Mironov of the be Version 2.0 of Yourself podcast...

A Look Back at The First Year of Podcaster Stories

On April 21st 2020, Podcaster stories was launched. Unlike my other podcasts up until that point, this wouldn’t be a solo show – instead, it’d be an interview-style show.

Not only that, but it would be an interview-style show with fellow podcasters, many of whom had interview shows of their own. So, to say I was a little nervous would be an understatement!

But, 12 months on, I’m enjoying it as much as ever, and have some fun ideas regarding the next 12 months and beyond.

Thank you so much for l...

Steven Webb on Managing the Stillness In the Storms

This week, I sit down with Steven Webb, host of the Stillness in the Storms podcast, a show that helps you find inner peace at difficult times.

Steven has survived childhood divorce, family suicide, his own suicide attempt, broken neck, bankruptcy and numerous heartbreaks. Basically, life. We talk about some of that in this episode.

Steven Webb on Overcoming the Stillness In the Storms

This week, I sit down with Steven Webb, host of the Stillness in the Storms podcast, a show that helps you find inner peace at difficult times.

Each episode, Steven brings a different perspective and way of living life that eases your suffering. Being severely paralyzed is just a fraction of Steven’s mountain climb to find his inner peace. If Steven can sit with stillness, you can also.

It’s the first time, really, that being paralyzed really creeped up.

Steven talks about the moment that he hi...
