The Brain Scrub
Are you a target in parental alienation, are you trying to live your best life, is stuff getting in the way? The Brain Scrub focuses on mental health and I share how I am coping during these unpredictable times by focusing on self-care, improvement and building community. My goal is to support you in living your best life by sharing what I have done during my journey as an alienated parent. This podcast explains my path to living a more authentic life by taking a courageous look at my self and focusing on what I can control, me. I am not an expert and the tools and techniques I share are based on my research, practice and ideas. For mental or physical health challenges, please seek the advice of a qualified practitioner. Absolutely seek professional help to deal with trauma, depression, personality disorders, etc. Support is out there - get it.

I am a coward in some aspects of my life. A recent situation in my life shone a light on the fear that I hold and the consequences of that on myself and my alienated son.
