Ep. 4: A Book of Job Survival Manual
CJ has had a particularly difficult last 5 years or so, including battling alcoholism & depression, only to have his wife become disabled just as he was starting to come out of those struggles, which gave him & his family a bunch of new stresses, including severe financial ones that he's still trying to battle at the moment. In this episode of Archetopical, he shares some of that story, followed by a discussion of the things that he has found most helpful to him in getting through these struggles with his life, health, & marriage still intact, in the hopes that some of them may help you if & when you have to deal with your own seemingly endless series of very unfortunate events.You can support CJ's work on Archetopical via Patreon here: CJ Killmer | creating Dangerous History & Archetopical Productions | Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/c/profcj)Like this episode?You can throw CJ a $ tip via Paypal here:https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=D6VUYSYQ4EU6L (https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=D6VUYSYQ4EU6L)Throw CJ a $ tip via Venmo here:https://www.venmo.com/u/dangeroushistory (https://www.venmo.com/u/dangeroushistory)Or throw CJ a BTC tip here:bc1qfrz9erz7dqazh9rhz3j7nv696nl52ux8unw79z
