In this episode, enjoy this deeply moving (and sometimes humorous) conversation with my guest, Dr. Greg Linkowski, diagnostic radiologist (retired), spiritual mentor, author and bereaved dad since 2002. From a childhood fuelled by chaos, his dad's addiction, emotional upheaval and witnessing his father’s darkest struggles, to the devastating loss of his young son years later, Greg shares his story of resilience and courage with unabashed honesty and vulnerability to offer hope and guidance to anyone walking a similar path.
In his new book, “Dare to Thrive”, Greg states that while pain is inevitable, it does not have to define who we are. Through faith, courage and hope, we can heal our deepest wounds and transform our lives.

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills
As Director of The Men’s Clinic at UCLA, Dr. Jesse Mills has spent his career helping men understand their bodies, their hormones, and their health. Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t. Smart, straightforward, and entertaining, The Male Room is the show that helps men take charge of their health without the jargon.
