Today’s episode is not only timely but truly one of the most impactful and informative conversations you might hear. This conversation is about drug addiction. A report recently released stated there were over 93,000 drug overdose deaths in 2020 which is nearly a 30% increase from the year before.    My fear is that these numbers will continue to climb. This episode is going to be a masterclass on drug addiction and recovery. It is going to feature different parts from three previously released conversations surrounding these topics. We will talk statistics, causes and solutions. You will discover contributing factors and also hear a few transformation stories.   The first part will feature renowned interventionist and hostage negotiator Heather Hayes as she provides some staggering statistics on what we are facing, what’s causing the epidemic and how to know if someone is having addiction issues. Then you will hear from health and wellness influencer Arielle Lorre and Internet personality Mike Majlak as they both share their riveting stories of overcoming addiction. The episode will then become more solution-oriented as you hear from Heather again on practical steps to take if someone is suffering with addiction as well as advice from Arielle and Mike.    My hope is that after listening to this conversation you will feel educated, hopeful, and inspired to take action or be prepared to take action if you or a loved one are ever suffering from addiction.    Links to full episodes featured in this conversation:   Arielle Lorre:   https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/arielle-lorre-deep-dive-on-addiction-recovery-wellness/id1496406333?i=1000515322639   Heather Hayes:   https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/heather-hayes-nation-thats-being-held-hostage-by-addiction/id1496406333?i=1000515777062   Mike Majlak:   https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/from-drug-addict-to-internet-celebrity-redemption-story/id1496406333?i=1000518614684   Connect with Arielle Lorre:    Website : https://theblondefiles.com/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ariellelorre   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ariellelorre/   Twitter: https://twitter.com/ariellelorre   Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-blonde-files-podcast/id1458992375   Connect with Heather:    Website : https://www.heatherhayes.com/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heatherrhayes/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HeatherRHayesInc   Connect with Mike Majlak:   Instagram: www.instagram.com/heybigmike   Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMk0u-pViW-Ff4F9SAGcI4g   Twitter: www.twitter.com/mikemajlak   Buy Mike Majlak's book "The 5th Vital": https://www.amazon.com/Fifth-Vital-Mike-Majlak/dp/B087L8DWZQ   Listen/Watch Impaulsive Podcast: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGeBogGDZ9W3dsGx-mWQGJA   Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/impaulsive-with-logan-paul/id1442164847?at=1l3vwYf   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/36PzTdM4rvRPaJYdBW1ZNa   Connect with Doug:   Instagram: www.instagram.com   Twitter: www.twitter.com/dougbopst   Facebook: www.facebook.com/dougbopst   More on Earth Echo Foods/Cacao Bliss:   www.earthechofoods.com/dougbopst   Use Promo code "Doug" at checkout to receive 15% off your order Learn more about your ad choices.

My intention with this conversation to share a different perspective and get the answers to the questions many ask regarding the subject of plant-based nutrition.   We discuss the why, what and how of plant based nutrition and the benefits that come from with it and of course we get into the million dollar questions surrounding protein, supplementation and amino acids.    Our conversation also goes into how to course correct when eating more plants becomes challenging.  They also share something from their book will shock some non-plant based eaters as well as their personal stories.   Buy "Plant Based Athlete" here:   https://www.amazon.com/Plant-Based-Athlete-Game-Changing-Approach-Performance/dp/0063042010   Connect with Robert:   Website: https://www.veganbodybuilding.com/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/robert.cheeke/   Connect with Matt:    Website: https://www.nomeatathlete.com/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realmattfrazier/   Connect with Doug:   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dougbopst/   Twitter: https://twitter.com/dougbopst   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dougbopst/   Website: https://www.dougbopst.com   More on Earth Echo Foods/Cacao Bliss:   www.earthechofoods.com/dougbopst   Use Promo code "Doug" at checkout to receive 15% off your order Learn more about your ad choices.

She is also the host of the highly popular podcast, Kelly Corrigan Wonders as well as the PBS hit show “Tell Me More” where she has interviewed people such as Jennifer Garner and James Corden.   Kelly recently gave a commencement speech to the 2021 graduates of the Walker School where she shared some life-changing wisdom on the importance of human connection. Here is a quote from her speech that I think you will appreciate helping set the tone for the convo today…   “Great lives are made up of a series of great days. And great days are made up of a series of great connections.”   Our discussion today centers around just that. We talk about the unbreakable bond that she had with her late father “Greenie,” how it was built, why it was so special, and some tips on how it could be replicated.  Kelly also shares why listening more and asking better questions is the secret sauce to building deeper connections and how you can apply it to specific types of relationships. We get into parenting and how to effectively communicate with your kids so that they feel safe, validated and connected. Kelly also chats about how she has healed from many painful moments in her life and some wisdom her Dad left behind that helps get her through tough times. Essentially this chat is about love. It’s about connection. It’s about humility. It’s about taking the focus off of yourself and putting it onto others so that you can live a life full of joy, fulfillment, and happiness.   Connect with Kelly:   Website: https://www.kellycorrigan.com/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kellycorrigan/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kellycorriganauthor/   Connect with Doug   Instagram: www.instagram.com/dougbopst   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dougbopst   Website: www.dougbopst.com/   Private Facebook Group:   https://www.facebook.com/groups/690686891674188   More on Athletic Greens:    www.athleticgreens.com/doug to get your free year supply of Vitamin D and 5 free travel packs!     Learn more about your ad choices.
