🔥 #735 FireSide Chat w/ Dr. Adena Shaviva Blickstein of Family Mastery Academy & the Crew | 15 Sep 2026 🔥 What happens when we stop asking, “What’s wrong with you?” and start looking at what may be putting a person or family out of balance? On this episode of The Lost Art Project: Veterans’ Voices, AJ is joined by Dr. Adena Shaviva Blickstein of Family Mastery Academy, along with crew members Jess Kindelspire and Mike McNany, for a powerful conversation about mental health, parenting, veterans, family relationships, and the difference between nurturing and coddling. Dr. Adena shares her approach to helping individuals and families better understand one another, while the conversation explores stress, communication, emotional vulnerability, parenting, and the challenges veterans can face when bringing a military mindset back into their family lives. The discussion also gets personal as the crew talks about how veterans express love, the emotional walls that can remain long after military service, fathers connecting with their children, relationships between veterans and their spouses, and why asking for help should be viewed as strength rather than weakness. 🎙️ Featuring: Dr. Adena Shaviva Blickstein – Special Guest, Family Mastery Academy AJ Cox – Host Jess Kindelspire – Crew Mike McNany – Crew This conversation goes well beyond mental health. It’s about family, connection, communication, vulnerability, parenting, and learning how to bring the person behind the uniform home. 🎧 Listen. Share.
