I hope you’ve been enjoying your summer. I sure have! Here you’ll find a NEW Interview on the “When I Stop Fighting” Podcast and an introduction to Hot Stuff–an Awesome Children’s Book!
We just returned from 2 weeks in Norway and Copenhagen, and I could not believe how gorgeous the fjords are–especially those up above the Arctic Circle! Here we are at the Troll museum in Tromso, at the very top of Norway. The mirror was interactive and made Peter’s image into a troll; I was behind, taking a picture of him!
“WHEN I STOP FIGHTING” PODCAST WITH DARYL AND GIGI
If you want to know about Daryl, just consider the title to his 2023 book: WHEN I STOP FIGHTING The Unexpected Joy of Getting My Head Out Of My Ass . When I saw the title I just had to read it! It’s really good!
What I love about being interviewed on podcasts is that I learn SO MUCH from the host. Here we discuss how people need guidance in many areas of life, not just addiction: worry, anxiety, perfectionism, workaholism, or dysfunctional relationships. Here are a few more key ideas we highlight. To listen to us, just click on picture above or click HERE.
- Our pace of healing is not always orchestrated by us. Left to our own devices rarely works. We need some type of help and assistance.
- How family can barrel over us emotionally and mentally. We desire to be loved and we try everything in our power to achieve that.
- Relationships are the toughest part of recovery. Gotta find the patterns and coping strategies we’ve used. People pleasing, workaholism, martyrdom, etc.
- There’s freedom in knowing we can have a lot of input on what goes on in between our ears.
- Alanon, AA, Adult Children of Alcoholics can all be very helpful in emotional healing.

HOT STUFF, THE DRAGON by Patti Anderson
Last summer, my neighbor, Patti Anderson, called and asked for some guidance on publishing her children’s book. I must have given her some helpful tips, because, here it is in my hands, released this summer; and it is AMAZING!
