Jeff Brown was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in college at 21. The diagnosis made so much sense that he chose to live “out” as bipolar. Jeff had the full range of madness and brilliance and he has seen life at the peaks and depths of this condition. He also graduated college, have had a successful career in tech and became a patented inventor. Now Jeff is building this advocacy to help people who haven’t made it.

Rebecca, Aimee, and Stephen interview New England's Rachel Kaplan, author and advocate. From Rachel's bio: After spending years dealing with depression and mania caused my bipolar disorder I finally got on the right treatment plan and for the first time in my adult life had the chance to become happy. Over the course of just 3 years I have retrained my brain to go from being depressed to being extremely happy. Becoming happier has also contributed to me living a nearly perfect life with great family, friends, and my dream job defining it. Nothing in this book is just generic advice. It is all based on real steps that I took and are continuing to take in order to live my dream life.

Welcome to BPG Studio's author, advocate, and survivor Keegan O'Connell!
Bio: At age 10 I had my first depressive episode. I was driving with my parents, and a deep sadness overcame me. I could not stop crying, but I had no idea what was going on. The feeling subsided after an hour of so, and from that point on my life has been plagued with paranoia, extreme nervousness, anxiety, depression, and mania.
During my pre-teens, I became paranoid that my father would be killed in a car accident, and that my brother would die in his sleep. On top of this, I felt desperately sorry for people, who didn't need my sympathy, such as my hairdresser, whom I though was poor....

Stephen and Rebecca McDow will launch Circular Faith + Circular Economy (CFCE) spring 2023 on Anchor. CFCE explores the challenges and opportunities of upholding an equitable society for rural and urban communities in America and around the world and how faith is important to accomplishing equity. Faith is commanded to be a reflection of an equitable society not a hindrance! Many people feel faith is weaponized to oppress and marginalize communities and societies for profit. Empirical evidence suggests humans have used faith to kill civilizations, cultures, and economies. CFCE will discuss how those power dynamics exist and impact our local, national and international faith communities and economies. CFCE believes building a circular ecosystem is the ONLY solution for eliminating the poor outcomes the “linear take-make-waste system” has on communities and economies. The values and tenets of faith are critical and has a place in a circular ecosystem! If the faith community is not willing to discuss the failures of faith and equity, then faith has failed its people. As our friends at Faith & Prejudice expressed while discussing race, “There is a difference between being a multiracial church and multicultural.” And the same goes for all of society. If our society is not willing to think of our ecosystem as circular in that it is interconnected but detachable, then we are almost certain that communities in Appalachia to the Rockies; from the Amazon to Baja; from Sudan to the Sahara; from Leeds to Warsaw; from the Outback to Fiji; from Deli to Turkey; and from the Caucuses to Central Asia will remain cynical, angry, unhealthy and covetous! CFCE will also explore what a circular faith and economic ecosystem looks like and how interconnected all parts of our society is to our existence on Earth! God hasn’t thrown us away or left us and we must shift our thinking from linear to circular! You will hear from advocates, faith leaders, parishioners, business leaders, laborers, and academics who care about how faith, business, and society can operate in a manner that is interconnected and not lose independence, freedom, or integrity while giving agency to be a co-equal part of a body - It’s all about power dynamics!
What is a circular economy? Learn more: https://www.sbs.ox.ac.uk/research/centres-and-initiatives/skoll-centre-social-entrepreneurship/social-impact-education/circular-economy-lab
If you want to discuss how your faith can be or already is circular and how those principles can be applied to our entire ecosystem, please email Stephen and Rebecca at smcdow@stephenmcdow.com.

Season 3 ended with Rebecca having severe medication issues because of what we now know was her ADHD medication interacting with her mood medications. The irony, this episode NEVER got published because of said medication issues until now. Originally recorded in May of 2022, Genevieve Engleman, The Remote OT, talks through children and ADHD; spouses and ADHD; and just living with ADHD - Fabulous discussion!
