    Why Not Now
    Dec 14 2024
    In a moment things can change. Teressa and bernie talk about the question "Why not Now?" often we get so wrapped up in yesterday or tomorrow that the moment we are in becomes lost to what was and what will be. One can't be changed the other has not happened. Procrastination is the enemy of being present in the moment.

  • Shedding New Light

    Shedding New Light
    Dec 4 2024
    What is the true meaning of "recovery"? Often we think of it being about addiction. Is it really about the addiction or is is something more?

    In this short episode I talk about that very question. The idea that becomming more than you were is a process of life. Change is moving forward and to do that we need to learn to shed the past in favor of the present.

    The intro song can be found in the link below as can a movie that demonstrates the jopurney all humans travel.

    Full song used for the intro.
    "Help me to help myself"
