In this week's vulnerable episode we wanted to introduce Jordan's brother, Hunter Abney, and his girlfriend Amber Phillips. Hunter is an alcoholic and just finished a nine month stint at a rehabilitation facility. He wanted to join us to share his story with others on how he became to be an alcoholic, the process(es) he's gone through and where how he plans on using his new fresh start. Amber sheds light on the couple's journey throughout the years, and how she has also had to change many aspects of her own life in order to help Hunter's. Today's episode is very real and raw but extremely inspiring on how past choices do not define us and how one can always turn their life around no matter the circumstances.

In this second episode of our two-part series featuring Joel Collins M.D. (otherwise known as @TheRealDoctorJoel), we don't talk medicine... or try not to. Not only is Joel one of the first people I met during my first year in Grenada, but a loyal friend. He has gone on to be not only a consumer of media, but better yet, a producer (click the play button to find out what we mean by this). Joel also has invested what time he does have to stay physically fit and enjoys playing in the Crypto currency world. This man has many talents other than medicine so we wanted to give you all a second episode to show you that physicians like him do other things other than saving lives. If you're aspiring to be in the medical field, follow our guy on all social media to get the full story.
