Episode 24: From Trash to Triumph: A Mom's Story of Having a Trans Child in Utah

Talking to Candice Bithell was eye opening. She helped me see things in a new light and different perspective. As an infant, she was thrown in the trash when she was 2 days old, and later grew up in an abusive home. After overcoming her own trials and meeting and marrying her husband, she had to learn to manage kids learning to navigate their identity, her faith, and balancing culture and love all at the same time. She is amazing..

Episode 23: IT WASN'T MY BABY

I have so much respect for Megan Phillips. After learning that her younger sister was born without a uterus, she knew she would have a baby for her. After having 4 of her own, including twins, she became the surrogate for her sister and delivered a healthy baby boy. She discusses her journey of loneliness, empowerment, discomfort, selflessness, and JOY. I'm so dang proud of her.

Episode 21: THE LUCKIEST MAN ON EARTH: LIVING WITH ALS

https://thompsontough.org/ IG: @erikthompsontough First of all, I'm SO SORRY about the sound. I forgot my mic and he was soft spoken so I apologize. But it was truly awe-inspiring to be in the presence of Erik Thompson and his wife, Skye. It was a different approach, but I wanted to hear about Erik's story and learn about how Skye has had to deal with it. Erik has turned tragedy into something beautiful. His relationships with his boys, his wife, and his savior have deepened. His testimony has been strengthened, even amidst all the physical and emotional pain. He is the definition of Grit and his wife is right there beside him fully locked and loaded with Grit and Strength. I love them both.

I think it's fitting that TODAY, marks the 5th anniversary of Don Cash's death on Mount Everest. This episode speaks for itself. Don Cash had no regrets. He held nothing back and literally lived life to its fullest. His daughter Brandi talks about his courage and how he became a better Dad the more he dominated on the mountains, and even in death. She talks about being single for a long time, and having an unmedicated birth at home on her FIRST BABY! She is proud of her Dad, and of the mother she's become and is on her way to inspiring thousands of people everywhere on her new MoonLight Ranch!
