How do we know what we don't know? How much value is there in having empathy for others as opposed to sympathy? Snoopy and I approach these questions from a few different angles in relation to different issues, and with a combination of serious contemplation and humor.

If you are wondering how to stay fit or GET FIT after surgery, it may not be as difficult as you think. Very often, it is your mentality or mindset that decides the ease or difficulty of your path to better health. In this episode, I share my experiences and methods that I have used to stay in shape, and in fact, improve my strength and overall health in between several surgeries since 2015.

I will freely admit that when Snoopy is on my side, it is a sign that I am on the right path, and it motivates me to keep moving on. In this episode, we talk about the mixture of fortune and struggle that I and some other American expatriates are faced with, and we also touch on issues like health, surgery, and the importance of recharging by taking road trip vacations.
We laugh and joke, I tease and flirt, but Snoopy and I also get deep with some serious talk about life and our observations.
THIS EPISODE WAS RECORDED ON 16 July 2021.

We talk about who engages in mansplaining and we speculate as to why they do it.
Tiffany Trautman came to me with a subject that affects her life and the life of many women. Mansplaining is often mansplained away, but not today.
Tiffany is a copywriter and an all-around tough little woman who has been a guest and/or co-host on my show many times.

Survivors of human trafficking are not to be written off as useless in the fight against the trauma that traffickers have put these victims through. They are the specialists, they can do much when it comes to preventive work, and they are the best advocates for current survivors and victims of human trafficking. I am quite honored to have spoken with Sara Pestana during this in-depth conversation about the work that she does. She is a passionate advocate for strengthening the victims that many have forgotten.
Sara Pestana is the founder and Executive Director of Humans For Humans
Humans For Humans is based in Oslo Norway and provides free mental health support for human trafficking survivors and for the professionals working in the field. They work towards preventing human trafficking by creating awareness among the general public, by providing articles, workshops, and events.
