And since he currently works with, friend of the show, Jeff Henson, that means he has even more. This is a hilarious episode that you're sure to enjoy.

I met Steve and instantly liked him.  Later as we talked quite a bit and I was able to find out that there is quite a depth to him.  I'm so grateful that he agreed to meet me and share his story.  He talks about struggle with addiction at a very early age, and how he found peace.  And finally we talk about some experiences that really put that peace to the test.

While working in Champaign, IL I had the unexpected privilege to record this interview. Mia was a complete stranger to me, but we started having a conversation.  She started opening up about herself and she clearly had a story to tell.  She was reluctant, but she agreed to allow me to record the conversation.  Mia has lived a tough life but in the face of it all she still keeps a positive attitude. Enjoy my conversation with Mia.

For those of us who were alive at the time, we could never forget that day.  Where we were.  How we felt.  In this episode we listen to the story of 5 people who experienced Sept. 11th.  All were in very different places, with their own perspectives.  But each certainly has a story.
