We ALL fall down, together we rise. Whether you’re going through dark days, or have dealt with them in the past, or perhaps maybe they have impacted someone you love, we have all been impacted by mental health struggles in some way, shape or form. No matter what it is that you are going through, life can and will get better for you. We have all felt that same feeling of being alone in this world, when the lights are all out, and nobody else is awake and all we have is the voice in our head. The…

Sometimes the hardest part isn’t doing everything — it’s simply showing up. In this episode of The Risen Fallen Podcast, I talk about why running one block is better than never leaving the couch, why action can create motivation, and how that same idea applies to the people we love. The people in our lives don’t always need us at our best. They don’t always need advice, solutions, energy, or some…
Most of life isn’t made up of huge breakthroughs, perfect routines, or life-changing moments — it’s made up of ordinary days. In this episode of The Risen Fallen Podcast, I talk about why learning to make the boring days your best days can completely change the way you approach your health, mindset, and life. I also get into my own tendency to look for “the one stretch” or “the one exercise” that…
In this episode of The Risen Fallen Podcast, Mark sits down with bestselling author and certified mindfulness instructor Aaron Hendon for a deep conversation about mental health, purpose, and reclaiming control over where we place our attention. We explore how easily life can become driven by stress, distraction, fear, and outside expectations—and why mindfulness is about far more than simply…
We are more digitally connected than ever, yet more people feel isolated, lonely, and disconnected from real human relationships. In this episode, I talk about why so many adults no longer have a true community outside of work and home. Whether it is a jiu-jitsu gym, church, art club, running group, sports team, fishing group, or regular gym, we all need somewhere we can consistently show up, see…
In this episode of The Risen Fallen Podcast, I talk about what it really means to advocate for yourself in everyday life. Whether it is asking for better treatment at work, communicating your needs in a relationship, addressing tension in a friendship, or pushing for answers in healthcare, too many people stay silent and expect others to understand what they are feeling. That silence often turns…

After recently reaching one year sober, Mike shares what recovery has taught him about discipline, identity, mental health, and facing hardship without falling back into old habits. We also discuss the recovery-focused app he is developing to connect people with…
In this episode of The Risen Fallen Podcast, I sit down with Corporal Brad Savage, an RCMP officer who speaks openly and honestly about mental health, PTSD, trauma, and the realities that come with serving in law enforcement. Brad brings a powerful perspective on what it means to carry the weight of the job, the importance of speaking up, and why mental health conversations matter — especially for…
We often think peace will come once life finally calms down — once the pressure lifts, the bills are paid, the relationship is easier, work slows down, or the season changes. But if peace depends on having no problems, peace will always be temporary. In this episode, I talk about why peace is not the absence of problems, but the ability to stay grounded in the middle of them. Real peace is not…
In this episode of The Risen Fallen Podcast, I talk about the idea that love and peace are not things we simply find — they are things we build. We live in a world where everything feels replaceable. Don’t like something? Upgrade it. Order something new. Swipe to the next person. Find a better job. Move to a better house. Chase the next version of life. But that mindset can slowly train us to…
In this episode of The Risen Fallen Podcast, I talk about the difference between overthinking and avoidance. Sometimes we convince ourselves we are planning, processing, or waiting for clarity, when really we are avoiding the action we already know we need to take. I break down how overthinking can become a form of procrastination, why clarity often comes after movement, and how fear disguises…
