The Fo0H Tribe Podcast - Hog's Growing Up Story- #fo0h #thefo0htribe

Welcome to the thirty fourth episode of The Fo0H Tribe Podcast, Where Men Can Be Men!

If you are new to the podcast, my process for getting out information to you has changed overtime and it evolves and shifts weekly depending on a number of factors. Since I have a "better than average understanding" of what I want to try and accomplish for this podcast, the process of getting there isn't very fluid or structured at all. I kind of like it that way. I'm adding little tweaks here and there and trying new words and their definitions as I  sift through new ideas and absorb more information from other experts. Some might say it's a "creative" process and I wouldn't argue. It ebbs and flows on a daily basis. 

Up until this this episode, I've shared some personal stories/experiences with you throughout the SOAM 2023 Study. This is first time I attempt to just lay it out there for you, the listener to hopefully try and identify instead of compare. This isn't a competition so you don't need to worry yourself with who has the better or more compelling personal stories. It's my hope, my personal stories might compel anyone to stop for a moment and consider searching inwardly for how any personal experiences may of shaped or modeled you in the person you. Has it been a benefit to you? If so, how? If it's a liability, how has it taxed you? Do tell yourself you shouldn't look or are you at a point when NOW might be the time to consider searching? 

In my story, alcohol beat me into submission and I was compelled by a disease once I reached of place of being totally emotional and spiritually broken. I was in a dark, cold and deep ditch all by myself, convincing myself I wasn't partially responsible for the reason why I was in this ditch.  It was then and only then, after accepting my actions might have lead me to this point of despair when I became willing to ask for help. To my shock, I received it and I haven't looked back since. In the coming month, I plan on putting some kind of "course" work together for those who have "accepted" and are "willing" to venture down a new road of discovery. More to come on that later.

So sit back and listen, chill out, grab a beverage, do whatever you have to do to relax and come on a walk with me down my personal "memory lane" and take it for what it is. Just my story, nothing earth shattering. There isn't going to be any movie scripts written about my average normal every day life, I can tell you that for sure. If you learn anything from my story or can identify with anything, then that's a home run for me. 

Next week I'll dive a little deeper into the first stage of MEN and we will see where it takes us. In the meantime, Smash The Day. I'll see ya in there!

Also, here is a clip of when this music was inserted into the movie and the powerful impact it had on me when I watched it for the first time. If
