The Man and The Monkey Podcast

This episode looks at our price versus where we find our value in life.

This episode looks at an all-too-common mistake we make with those we love. We want them to be in a better place, but are we truly helping them or hurting them? This episode dives into the difference between helping and enabling, and why we should stop enabling immediately.

While working with others last week, the common theme seemed to be the need to sit in our pain. Often times, we feel the fires we are in are too intense for us to get through. This episode covers the importance of those fires and how to get out of them. 

This episode discusses why we focus so much on other people's opinions. It covers the psychological reasoning behind it, what it does to us, and ultimately, how to get our freedom back. Stop worrying about what others think or say about you, and learn to live your authentic self.

Matthew and Jamie discuss why it's so easy for us to blame others, particularly God. 

This is another episode with an interview involving a law enforcement officer and how his vicarious trauma helped contribute to a problem with alcohol. This episode might contain topics which maybe disturbing for some listeners.

This week is a return to our mindset and how we are choosing to live. Do you want to continue living check to check? Do you like being broke? If you feel like you're lacking something and you know that you deserve a better life, this episode is for you. Matthew tackles the issue of living life to the fullest. 

This episode is unlike anything heard on the podcast. It is another interview which discusses child abuse, intrafamilial sexual abuse, rape, addiction, and trauma. Although this episode covers these topics, the story is one of survival and resiliency.

I sit down to talk with the former spouse of a law enforcement officer who struggled with addiction before ultimately taking his own life. This episode discusses the trauma experienced, family violence, and the raw experiences which were faced. Leslie's story is powerful for any family member who is dealing with addiction in their home.
