Episode 21 - Stupid Cancer

This episode features guest and cancer thriver, Matthew Zachary, founder of Stupid Cancer. In 1995, Matthew was diagnosed with pediatric brain cancer and told he would only live for 6 months. He not only crushed cancer, he stared Stupid Cancer which is now proudly the preeminent nonprofit organization that makes cancer suck less for those touched by young adult cancer. Through its innovative, award-winning, and evidence-based programs and services, the organization serves as a global bullhorn to propel the young adult cancer movement forward.  

In this episode, Garth and Dara talk openly with Matthew about his experience, insights, thoughts and perspective about stupid cancer.

Episode 19 - We Were Wrong

Have you ever been so sure of something? I mean really sure? 

This was us, before we took our daughters to college. 

You might have caught our podcast about transitions, and about how we mentioned we were taking our daughters to college. 

We talked about how SURE we were that we weren’t going to be sad. Because we are grateful and happy and all of that good stuff.

Guess what? 

We were so wrong. 

And, when we’re wrong about something on the THRIVE podcast, we admit it!

Check out this episode and listen to us swallow some serious humble pie! We share our experience, what it feels like to be so sad your heart hurts, and what to do about it.

Episode 18 - It's Time to Let Yourself THRIVE

Do you want more from life? 

Do you feel a lack of fun, joy, passion or success?

We’ve got the solution for you! We’re hosting an immersive weekend workshop, from November 2-4, in the mountains of North Carolina. We will teach you how to thrive rather than just survive. 

We will equip you with the skills and motivation to make the most of every single day of the rest of your life. Whether you’ve been through a tough time, or are dusting yourself off after a perceived failure, or whether you’ve simply fallen into a rut which you’re struggling to get out of — this is the transformative pick-me-up for you. Through a combination of interactive workshops, small group and one-to-one sharing, and personal study time, you will:

• Regain control. Learn to be honest about your wants and needs, and use specific tools to move forward and nurture your spirit.
• Recapture joy. Recognize the importance of attitude, and learn positive self-talk and how to live with gratitude.
• Rediscover purpose. Get excited about your future and identify want you want to get out of the rest of your life.

You will go home with a personal mantra, a host of actionable daily tools for self-care and managing fear, and an action plan to help you move towards your goals.

This event is open to all.
