I am so honored to have had the privilege to interview Melanie Weiss and her husband Paul Frank Weiss. Those that know her story, know that she is sharing this with others to try and help and inspire. I feel we really need to reflect on that. For someone to relive that experience over and over again can be troubling. You may hear some of that in the episode, but there is healing in that process. Especially when you know you are helping others.
For those that are not familiar with her story. She had a scarily amazing story with her bout of prescription drug addiction. How she has also turned this experience into a way to help others. This was an emotional episode for me as well. Since I have dealt with alcohol abuse in my life I can see it from the parent and the child's point of view. It's inspirational, raw, and organic. Talk about making the most positive out of a situation! WOW! I hope you enjoy this episode and can feel our passion.
A huge Thank you from the bottom of my heart to them both for doing this for us! Paul is quite the inspiration too. He plays a difficult role during this journey.
Props to my wife Kathryn Thyen Jurrens for taking pics of our interview.
