are you at rock bottom and questioning the point of life? (this one's for you)

are you at rock bottom and questioning the point of life? (this one's for you)

I received two listener emails this week that ripped my heart open. One was struggling with addiction, and the other was devastated by a recent heartbreak. These voicemails reminded me of why I started my podcast in the first place, so I decided to record this episode. It is a love letter to the person at rock bottom. The person who is so heartbroken, they feel like they can’t go on—the person questioning if they even want to be on this earth anymore. Through the words of authors who have inspired me and gotten me through my own dark times, it is my hope that this episode can be a light in the darkness. If it inspires just one person to keep fighting, it will have all been worth it.

Authors quoted in the episode:

In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction by Gabor Maté

The Hero's Journey: Joseph Campbell on His Life & Work by Joseph Campbell

Ether: Into the Nemesis by L.J. Vanier
