What up, Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of The Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with Adam Greenberg, former Major League Baseball Player and CEO of www.lurongliving.com! Episode 15 features Dena Coukoulis. As Dena strived to help her son cope with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder associated with his military service in the Marine Corps during the Global War on Terror, she didn’t expect a brief family video posted on Facebook to go viral. As people enjoyed her family video more than 1 million times, Dena quickly recognized her family’s experience had deep roots in the American consciousness. Since then, Dena committed herself to creating a world of mental health fluency, compassion, and empowerment for those who are overcoming the challenges associated with traumatic stress. She’s in the process of writing a children’s book and regularly raises awareness about the importance of mental health through the powerful, ineffable core connections that exist between animals and people. These are the type of potent, core connections that can help bring men and women great comfort during their process of transitioning from Post-Traumatic Stress to Post-Traumatic Growth. Thank you, Dena, for being a guest on the Get Up Nation Podcast!

My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with Adam Greenberg, Major League Baseball Player and CEO of www.lurongliving.com. Welcome to Episode 16 of the podcast. I had the honor and privilege of speaking with Josh Wege. He’s a Marine Corps Veteran of the Global War on Terror and is currently a member of the Wounded Warrior Amputee Softball Team. Josh lost both of his legs in Afghanistan to an improved explosive device that detonated under his vehicle. He refused to let the loss of his legs stop him from serving others and currently empowers young amputees to be confident and unashamed of who they are. I caught up with him just before he left on a snowboarding trip and had the honor of hearing his story which I share with all of you here. It’s worth the listen especially if you need to hear about good people doing amazing things for others.

Organizations of Change - Overcoming Addiction with Sober Life Apparel and Connections Counseling

What up, Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball Player and CEO of www.lurongliving.com, Adam Greenberg. I love connecting with all of you out there who are tired of the negativity in media and am honored when I hear how you are enjoying the positivity of the Get Up Nation Podcast. Today I’m wishing Renee and Scott Parks health and healing as Renee continues to battle cancer. Renee has one of the most inspiring Instagram accounts I’ve ever seen as she chronicles her journey through her cancer treatment. I was honored to have her as the third guest of the Get Up Nation Podcast. Check out her episode today and wish her well via @resilient.renee on Instagram.

I also recently spoke with Evan Williamson, the creator of www.soberlifeapparel.com based in Texas. Evan created this clothing company to empower and support those battling addiction as they strive to create a new reality in recovery. He shared how his own battle with addiction was the catalyst that led him to serve others battling addiction. After speaking with Evan, I contacted Cory Divine, a Clinical Substance Abuse Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor at www.connectionscounseling.com in Madison, Wisconsin. He shared insights with me on the challenges people face as they attempt to transition from addiction into sobriety and recovery. He describes how the staff at Connections Counseling help people achieve a lasting liberation from addiction through a unique mentorship program that provides guidance and support during the transition.

Get Up Nation Organizations of Change - Overcoming Addiction

What up, Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball Player and CEO of www.lurongliving.com, Adam Greenberg. Today, I have the honor and privilege of speaking with Judy Hoberman. Judy is a true example of a person whose resilience, perseverance, and commitment to valuing her whole self allowed her to conquer massive barriers to success. At the age of 17, her own father told her that “all she was was pretty, and she would never amount to anything else.” She repeatedly refused to allow her intelligence to be suppressed and pursued her passion for business.

Early in her career she was employed by a roofing company. She was told to be the face of company and not to speak in order to be successful. If she would’ve obeyed these voices, the world would never have benefited from the brilliance of her many books including “Selling in a Skirt,” “Famous Isn’t Enough,” “Pure Wealth,” and most recently “Walking on the Glass Floor: Seven Essential Qualities of Women Who Lead.” These business books for sales executives and entrepreneurs have been featured on Fox News Radio, CNN Headlines, ABC, CBS, and Good Morning Texas. If she would’ve allowed these stifling voices to silence her own, the world would never have heard her TED Talk called “The Greatest Missed Opportunity” or listened to her radio show called “Selling in a Skirt” which airs on Mondays at 12pm Central on the Women for Women Radio Network. Her commitment to valuing herself and the entirety of her potential has led to the world valuing intensely her skills, knowledge, and insights. A gender expert, Judy is quoted as saying, “Women want to be treated equally, not identically.” She daily creates a world where people value people and intentionally transcend limiting and inaccurate assumptions about one another. Her perseverance and excellence has earned one of the most vital and important attributes any of us can possess, the respect of others. Judy, thank you for joining me on the Get Up Nation Podcast!

Get Up Nation Podcast Episode 20 Guest: Judy Hoberman, TedxSpeaker, Author, Trainer, Coach

What up, Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball Player and CEO of Lurong Living, Adam Greenberg. On this Memorial Day, I offer you Episode 22. Recently, I spoke with Travis Partington of Oscar Mike Radio. A United States Marine with a passion to serve the veteran community with his radio show, it was my honor to connect with Travis, listen to how he decided to invest himself in the service of those who’ve served, and learn more about his passion to end veteran suicide. If you live in the Greater Boston area and share a passion to bring healing and hope to those who are dealing with the psychological impact of violence and war, connect with Travis. He’s Oscar Mike, On the Move, toward and for more conscious systems that truly meet the needs of people who place their lives on the altar of freedom and survive. If you are interested in creating systems where people are able to effectively heal into wholeness after experiencing traumatic stress, trauma, and violence, please take the time to not only listen to this podcast, but join Travis, Oscar Mike Radio, Get Up Nation, and me in creating a world where wounds are soothed and bound at the highest and deepest level, where conflict is resolved with unparalleled power and efficiency, and where people who offer their entire selves to creating a brilliant world free of terror, oppression, and abuse experience the honor and satisfaction of knowing their sacrifices were worth every moment. 

Get Up Nation, if personal and organizational resilience can be established in these environments, just think of what that means for every facet of society, whether in refugee populations, populations who have survived oppressive and abusive forms of government, populations who have survived natural disaster, domestic violence survivors, human trafficking survivors, those attempted to heal from Adverse Childhood Experiences, those suffering from the effects of poverty and mental illness—the list goes on and on. We are on the cusp of a New Era. Be a part of creating a world where no one gets left behind. Veterans lead the way into the most violent places on earth, now they’re helping to lead the way out of the most affected places within.

This episode is dedicated to Nathan Vacho and Dan Thompson who made the ultimate sacrifice to create a world free from terror. Rest in Peace. Brothers, I’m doing my very best to honor the sacrifice you made, to be worthy of it.

Get Up Nation Podcast Episode 22 Guest: Travis Partington of Oscar Mike Radio

What up, Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball Player and CEO of Lurong Living, Adam Greenberg. Recently I had the honor and privilege of speaking with former National Football League Player Cory Procter. He was a member of three teams in the NFL: the Detroit Lions, Dallas Cowboys, and the Miami Dolphins. After 6 years in the league he suffered a Patellar Tendon rupture in his left knee which ended his career in the NFL and led to the phenomenal work he is doing now to empower, inspire, and champion people to become their very best with relentless grit, endurance, and perseverance. Cory recently joined Mark Pattison in climbing Mount Kilimanjaro as part of Mark’s Summit Project and Chris Long’s Waterboys organization. Every season, Green Beret and former Seattle Seahawk Nate Boyer joins Chris Long in challenging combat veterans and NFL alumni to join him in conquering Africa’s highest peak, Mount Kilimanjaro. Cory conquered it even after losing vision in one eye due to altitude sickness. He is a phenomenal example of resilience and speaks frequently about how to possess the habits that create greatness as a keynote speaker. This podcast highlights the power of human beings, the importance and value of our closest relationships, and how people can accomplish amazing impact no matter where they are in their lives.

Get Up Nation Podcast Episode 23 Guest: Former NFL Player Cory Procter

What up, Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball Player and CEO of www.lurongliving.com, Adam Greenberg. Recently I had the honor and privilege of speaking with United States Air Force Veteran Colonel Don Taylor. He is the author of a book called "The Quiet Heroes: Timeless Reflections of an American Airman." The book highlights the experiences of World War II veteran Technical Sergeant Erwin "Itch" Harrison of the United States Army Air Corps. We discuss the book and how the process of writing it caused Don to draw from his experiences serving in Iraq as the Commander of a military hospital to gain valuable insights into honoring Itch’s challenges and service. If you’re interested in gaining a greater understanding of how servant leadership can transform one of the most terrifying and traumatic environments on earth into a place of health, empowerment, resilience, and cohesion by making peace with your own mortality and voluntarily risking one’s own life in the service of the broken, welcome to Get Up Nation Episode 24. Nowhere is resilience more valuable and important than when human beings decide to enter the jaws of modern warfare to heal and serve. Don shares how he honored the sacrifices and challenges of those who volunteered to go, recognized and communicated the supreme privilege of their duty to save and heal in a war zone, and sustained his staff’s mental health as they faced the tremendous challenge of caring for those who suffered the most vicious trauma the world has to offer. He also reflects on those who survived prior wars and conflicts and how the need to better serve them creates his calling to tirelessly help these heroes every day of his life. Thank you, Don, for joining me on the Get Up Nation Podcast.

What Up, Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball Player and CEO of www.lurongliving.com, Adam Greenberg. Recently I had the honor and privilege of speaking with Alyse Price-Tobler, an integrative psychotherapist and counselor who has created numerous valuable programs and services that support mental health which you can access on her website www.alyseprice-tobler.com. During this episode of the Get Up Nation Podcast, we discuss her SEMPI Social Communication Model which is creating a global impact. This model “is designed to stop loneliness, isolation, and stigma” associated with mental illness and is based on an “altruistic, reciprocal philosophy allowing any person from any social class” to use the model in order for all communicating parties to “feel heard, validated, and understood” while also leading to a “more equal social class power balance.” Listen to the podcast to learn more about how Alyse is helping to create a world where people do not simply survive but engage in a way that works to achieve invigorating internal and interpersonal satisfaction. Thank you, Alyse, for joining me on Episode 25 of the Get Up Nation Podcast.

What up, Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball player and CEO of Lurong Living, Adam Greenberg. Recently I had the honor and privilege of speaking with Gwen Lawrence. You may have seen her on the Better Man Television Show, which she co-hosts with Brian Jones, read her book Body Sculpting with Yoga, or heard how she serves professional sports teams and countless others with her program called Power Yoga for Sports. Her unique ability to read bodies helps her analyze any imbalances and asymmetry that can lead to injury. She’s helped elite athletes like Alex Rodriguez and Plaxico Burress prevent injury and enhance their performance. Her clients include the New York Knicks, the New York Yankees, the New York Rangers, the New York Giants, David Letterman, Regis Philbin, Coach Larry Brown, UN Secretary General Kofi Anon, Kathie Lee and Frank Gifford, Kate Hudson, the New York Redbulls—the list goes on and on. You can access a detailed list, training opportunities, testimonials, tips, T-shirts, at her website Gwen Lawrence.com. You will also find some blog posts that give a window into how Gwen has achieved such success.

In March of 2018, Gwen described on her blog how she does not believe in regret. A survivor of unspeakable childhood sexual abuse, Gwen wrote “I believe I have a purpose to fulfill” and embraces her journey that “has ups and downs of learning, creating, discovering, disappointment, and great highs.” She also describes how people “can’t appreciate or even conceive of a high or an accomplishment unless they have felt the lows.” She describes how the adversity in her life has made her “tough as nails” and “aware of her surroundings.” She’s developed “peak, finely tuned intuition,” and a ferocious sense of protection for her family and those she cares about. Listen to this episode of the podcast to learn how powerful it can be when we refuse to be a victim.

What up, Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball player and CEO of www.lurongliving.com, Adam Greenberg. It’s been said that an Army marches on its stomach. Recently I had the honor and privilege of speaking with a renowned butcher, Jason Nauert, who fills the stomachs of those fighting the Global War on Terror including the 10th Special Forces Group. He’s creating military members who are not merely able to nourish themselves in austere environments and prevent food-bourne illness, he’s creating military members who fuse their passion with service and enjoy creating meals in the field of unparalleled quality. He also serves as a consultant to civilian organizations that desire butcher based menu development, in house charcuterie development, recipe development, wild game butchering and cooking services, and curing at home. With more than 35 years of experience and certification through the Rocky Mountain Institute of Meat, Jason Nauert is transforming the image of the Army Cook from a soldier in charge of mass meal production into passionate leaders who take great pride in serving America’s noble servicemen and service women with food that fuels them toward mission completion. Thank you, Jason, for taking time to talk with me on the Get Up Nation Podcast!

What up, Get Up Nation? Recently, I had the honor and privilege of speaking with Ben Baker from Richmond British Columbia in Canada. Ben’s company Your Brand Marketing assists clients with creating a resilient Living brand in order to engage the client audience and get the client noticed. Some of the ways www.yourbrandmarketing.com serves clients is personal brand development, helping clients understand their brand so they can communicate it more effectively internally and externally, auditing brands and communication so that all assets are saying the same thing in the same way in order to communicate value effectively, and assessing corporate brands to provide an understanding if a brand shift is needed. If your company does 5 to 40 million dollars in the business to business arena but can’t justify the costs of a full time Chief Marketing Officer, www.yourbrandmarketing.com, can become your part-time Chief Marketing Officer. If your marketing budget is $100,000 or more, Ben can set up a free one hour consultation to discuss designing a program that specifically addresses your needs at yourbrandmarketing.com. 

I’ve been looking forward to speaking with Ben about his company, his new book Powerful Personal Brands: A Hands On Guide to Understanding Yours, and why he does what he does. Ben, welcome to the Get Up Nation Podcast!

What up, Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball Player and CEO of Lurong Living, Adam Greenberg. Recently I had the honor and privilege of speaking with Kasie Lynn, the Founder and CEO of Kasie Helps Kidz www.khkidz.org, a non-profit organization dedicated to children fighting cancer. She is a 2 time childhood cancer survivor who has taken her experiences as a child survivor and created an organization that strives to continuously provide children and their guardians with a strong support system during and after their battle against cancer. Her organization focuses on lifting the spirits of those currently undergoing treatments by providing them with teddy bears, pizza, and a movie night in the hospital. Kasie also facilitates other events where child cancer survivors can connect with peers to experience the strength and resilience that is generated by spending time with others who are facing similar challenges. In 2013, Kasie created the Kasie Helpz Kidz Financial Assistance Program which assists families with up to $500 per year in reimbursement for co-pays, medications, and travel expenses during their child’s battle with cancer. I am honored that she took time to share her journey with Get Up Nation.

**** This podcast episode concludes with the song “Forever Be” by Katrina Stone. A family who supports Get Up Nation and prefers to remain unnamed dedicates this song to their child who they lost to cancer 1 year ago today.****

What Up Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with Adam Greenberg. Today I have the honor and privilege of speaking with Eva Magdalenski AKA DJ Evaa AKA DJ Game Changer AKA Eva Magazine. You may know her from her work at Comedy Works in Denver Colorado, her work with Chelsea Handler on the television show Chelsea Lately and E’s After Lately, or her recent album called 3 Block from Compton. She’s a graduate of the legendary Scratch DJ Academy founded by Run DMC’s Jam Master Jay (www.scratch.com), where she trained with legends like DJ Revolution of LA’s Wake Up Show. She’s unleashing her DJ skills upon the world and describes in this podcast episode her experience performing at Red Rocks for 10,000 people.

She also shares why she’s passionate about supporting an organization called Girls Inc. (https://girlsinc.org/) which inspires “all girls to be strong, smart, and bold.” This organization was founded in 1864 to serve girls and young women who were experiencing upheaval in the aftermath of the Civil War and continues working with schools and communities today to create “safe gathering places for girls to learn and to share in a sisterhood and a strong premise that each girl can develop her own capacities, self- confidence, and grow up healthy, educated, and independent.” DJ Evaaa is an amazing person whose game changing mentality is certain to inspire us all today, especially if we’re struggling or reeling from life circumstances that aren’t going according to our plans. I am so happy to welcome Eva to the Get Up Nation Podcast to hear Eva share her method of remaining resilient, savoring each moment, and helping us all to develop an awareness that when life doesn’t go as planned, it might just be because something even better is making its way to the surface.

This podcast episode concludes with a song by the amazing Karmic called Wake Up. I can’t stop listening to this song. Check out Karmic on Instagram at @thisiskarmic, on Facebook at @thisiskarmic, and Soundcloud, itunes, and any music platform on your mobile device that can get this song onto your next playlist. If you’re committed to developing resilience in your life and refuse to live in fear, shame, doubt, anger, or negativity, this is fuel for the fire within you. Eva, welcome to the Get Up Nation Podcast.

Get Up Nation Podcast Episode 32 Guest: Eryl McCaffrey, www.erylmccaffrey.com

What Up, Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball player and CEO of Lurong Living, Adam Greenberg. Recently I had the honor and privilege of speaking with Richard “Buzz” Bryan and Alejandro Villanueva. Buzz served in the United States Navy as a corpsman and deployed to Iraq with United States Marines. During his service in combat he earned a Navy & Marine Corps Commendation Medal with Combat V, Combat Action Ribbon with a Star, Fleet Marine Force Device, and more. His commitment and intensity to serve his country and the Marines he patrolled with was unparalleled. When I spoke with some of the Marines Buzz served with, they did not hesitate to share stories about his maturity, leadership, and dedication that contributed to preserving and saving the lives of Marines in combat during the Global War on Terror. After completing his military service, Buzz continued to serve those who went into harm’s way. The intensity of his commitment to serve veterans led him into a variety of dangerous and interesting circumstances to help ensure that veterans were receiving sufficient and satisfying support. His duties as an outreach coordinator for the VA connected him with a person named Alejandro Villanueva.

Alejandro is a veteran himself. He is a graduate of West Point and completed Infantry, Airborne, and Ranger Schools. He served with the 10th Mountain Division and the First Ranger Battalion. He completed 3 tours of duty in Afghanistan. His actions during combat operations earned him a variety of awards and commendations including a Bronze Star with “V” Device. If you are listening to this and you don’t know the significance of the V attached to this medal, it means Alejandro earned this award by demonstrating heroism or valor in combat. More specifically, Alejandro, who stands 6 feet 9 inches tall rescued wounded soldiers while under enemy fire. And by the way, Alejandro is also the starting left tackle of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Thank you both for taking time to speak with me through technical difficulties, illness, and busy schedules to record Episode 34 of the Get Up Nation Podcast.

Recently, Everett Gibbons was kind enough to speak with me about his song “Getting’ Well.” This song plays at the end of the Get Up Nation Podcast Episode 32 and speaks to the importance of taking care of ourselves and our mental health as we all strive to create impact in our worlds. Listen to Everett bring fire when he describes how he created the song, how it’s impacting others, and how he stays #resilient each day and night as he pursues his personal and professional objectives.

What Up, Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball player and CEO of Lurong Living, Adam Greenberg. Recently I had the honor and privilege of speaking with Marsha Elle. Marsha is a gifted singer-songwriter, speaker, mentor, and model. She was born with a rare birth defect called proximal femoral focal deficiency resulting in the amputation of Marsha’s lower leg. Born in Haiti, she traveled to the United States to receive medical care and received her first prosthesis when she was 5 years old. In response to stares and bullying, she often disguised the prosthesis and didn’t wear shorts until she was 23 years old. Adjustments in her prosthetic during childhood made mobility difficult at times, leading to falls in the school cafeteria. Music became her “release and comfort.” She also attended a summer camp at the age of 16 for teenage amputees. This experience transformed the way she saw her ability and potential. She began to share her music and her journey with others. She defied the idea that there was no room for her in a body-image focused world, removed from her mind defeating perceptions and limits, and now serves as a beacon of light and faith for those who have difficulty with self-acceptance. I can’t wait to explore and share how Marsha transitioned from adversity to what she describes as a “series of triumphs on top of triumphs over time.” From People Magazine to Essence Magazine to the Huffington Post to Jada Pinkett Smith, people are heralding Marsha as an inspiring example of the beauty that happens when we believe in ourselves and refuse to be limited. It was an honor to have Marsha as a guest on the Get Up Nation Podcast! She even shares something during this episode that no one knows about her legendary photo shoot!

Recently I had the immense honor and privilege of speaking with Rudy Reyes. Rudy is one of America’s most elite and resilient Special Operations warriors who served as a Recon Marine during the Global War on Terror. Born into extreme poverty, Rudy shares how he defended and protected his brothers from gang influences and the cruelty, death, and violence of the streets during the crack cocaine epidemic in the 1980’s. He shares how his desire to serve the unseen and unheard resulted in his decision to serve in the Marine Corps after seeing how American service members were helping orphans during the Kosovo War. After facing numerous internal challenges which resulted from surviving multiple combat deployments, Rudy now supports veterans in crisis with his Recon Sniper Foundation and works with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the finest marine scientists, and veteran combat divers to save and restore coral reefs at Force Blue Team. I am honored to share this 39th podcast episode with Get Up Nation, where we learn how a person who has endured the most violent and brutal realities in this world helps to heal our oceans, our earth, and ultimately, each other.

Welcome to Episode 41 of the Get Up Nation Podcast! Recently I had the honor and privilege of speaking with Paul Guarino of PG Sports. Not only is he one of the State of Connecticut’s 40 Under 40 according to Connecticut Magazine, he’s also the Host of the Average 2 Savage podcast where he interviews the finest athletes on the planet. Not only did I have the pleasure of speaking with this entrepreneur and fellow podcaster, but we’re excited to announce the launch of the PG Sports Get Up Nation athletic apparel line! I love linking Get Up Nation with Paul because PG Sports is “Everywhere & Anywhere” worn by the finest athletes on the planet like MLB’s Brandon Phillips, the NFL’s Rob Jackson, and the NBA’s Brook Lopez. Just as athletes have to overcome opponents, injuries, losses, and pressure to survive in the arena, we all have challenges in our lives we have to face regardless of whether we are athletes or not. When you wear PG Sports Get Up Nation apparel, you’re making a statement about who you are, what you will be, and how no matter what comes your way, you and yours will keep getting up. Paul Guarino, thank you for joining me on the Get Up Nation Podcast!

My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball player and CEO of Lurong Living, Adam Greenberg. Recently I had the honor and privilege of speaking with Dr. Stacy Drury of the Tulane Department of Pediatrics and Tulane Brain Institute in New Orleans.  Dr. Drury and her team just won the 2018 Norbert and Charlotte Rieger Award for Outstanding Scientific Achievement which was issued by the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. She and her team are doing revolutionary work when it comes to understanding how stress and adverse childhood experiences impact our lives, even across generations. Her character and intelligence are extremely impressive. I knew I wanted to interview her as soon as I saw her describe how she “couldn’t imagine a better job” than helping children and their families cope with mental illness during some of the most tragic and devastating medical problems children can face. Her kind heart and brilliant mind are invested in easing the suffering families face during adversity. I am honored Dr. Drury took the time to speak with me on the Get Up Nation Podcast.

What Up, Get Up Nation? My name is Ben Biddick, the Host of the Get Up Nation Podcast and Co-Author of Get Up: The Art of Perseverance with former Major League Baseball player and CEO of Lurong Living, Adam Greenberg. Recently I had the privilege of speaking with James “Murr” Murray from TruTV’s “Impractical Jokers” where Murr, and his lifelong friends Joe, Q, and Sal compete to embarrass each other with a series of dares in public. If they refuse the dare, they pay the consequence that their friends dream up, knowing each others’ deepest fears and discomforts. After enduring some of the most horrendous punishments his friends can think of, embarrassing himself intentionally for the enjoyment of his friends and fans, I’m honored to have the opportunity to learn some of his insights into the power laughter can have in developing resilience, especially during the holidays. He’s also the author of the new book called Awakened, currently available from Harper Collins! Murr, thank you for joining me on the Get Up Nation Podcast!

Recently I had the honor and privilege of speaking with the amazing Jas Boothe. Jas is an author, entrepreneur, disabled Army Veteran, Cancer Survivor, Innovator, Philanthropist, and Speaker. Prior to deploying to Iraq, her life was significantly impacted by losing everything she owned during Hurricane Katrina and a month later being diagnosed with an aggressive head, neck, and throat cancer. She needed complex full-time medical care, employment, and a place to live with her son. She was advised there were no existing programs for women Veterans with children. After extensive cancer treatment, Jas was allowed to serve in the Army National Guard. Remembering what she and her son had been through when they were in need, Jas committed herself to ensuring that no servicemember would be left behind and that all women Veterans would be treated with the dignity and respect they earned during their service. She founded Final Salute, an organization that has provided more than a million dollars to provide homeless women Veterans with safe and suitable housing. This only scratches the surface of what this amazing human being has accomplished during her life, and I’m honored she’s taken the time to join me. Jas, thank you for joining me on the Get Up Nation® Show!
