  • Love the range of topics!

    I enjoyed the podcast you hosted with Shannon. This was my first listen and I will be checking out the rest of your older episodes. Shannon and I went to the same high school together. I never knew she went through that traumatic loss. It hit close to home, as I went through fertility in 2008, and ended up losing my triplets at 19 weeks after weeks of bed rest.

Gone Girl: Red Flags + Dating Safety with Justin Smith
Q: What inspired you to create Cray after your personal experience?
After a nearly deadly episode in his personal life, the creator realized many red flags are missed or misunderstood, so he built Cray to help others identify warning signs early and avoid trauma, turning his trauma into a platform aimed at protecting others.
Gone Girl: Red Flags + Dating Safety with Justin Smith
Q: Can you explain what Cray does and how it helps people evaluate potential partners?
Cray is a dating safety and self-improvement app that offers two main scoring mechanisms: the Cray score for red flags and the Schemer score for deception and manipulation, plus tools like Catfish Check and Background Check to help users assess risk before committing. It guides users toward safer dating decisions by providing contextual explanations for why certain behaviors matter in relationship health.
BONUS Episode: Reprogram Your Subconscious Mind with Matt Johnson
Q: can you talk a little bit about what the heck NLP is?
NLP, or Neuro Linguistic Programming, is like an owner's manual for the brain; it helps people map and adjust internal processes by restructuring how they perceive and respond to stress, which can rewire patterns contributing to pain and trauma.
Start Wherever You’re At with Jason Ott
Q: What can we do to fix this overwhelming stress you mentioned?
You need to create space for yourself and set boundaries, and it's important to accept the need for alone time without justification.
Start Wherever You’re At with Jason Ott
Q: Can you talk a little bit about that mapping of the disease timeline and how that can kind of uncover the root causes of chronic illness?
