I'm a compulsive gambler in recovery (last bet June 19, 2011), and I want to find ways to merge recovery and innovation.

I am so excited to let you know that I am *finally* launching my problem gambling podcast, called The Push. It is FAR from perfect, but I hope that it resonates and helps further the conversation. Trying to keep #PGAM2021 going! buzzsprout.com/1698154/8261994

I think this is only the starting point. Less than half of all states have legalized sports betting so far. It's critical to educate and provide resources for problem gambling in new laws. Betting on Baseball Could Break $40 Billion Mark This Season ggbnews.com/article/bettin…

#RadioGarden makes my day so much more fun. Today, I'm grooving to a station in Majunga, Madagascar and getting a lot done!

I'll be tuning in to MPR News Monday at 11 am to hear Angela Davis talk with experts about problem gambling in Minnesota and the impact of increasing online options. Grateful to see this getting more attention! mprnews.org/episode/2021/0…

I just read a review of Grand Casino Tycoon. You advance by maximizing casino revenue. One marketing segment is 'Compulsive Gambler'; another is 'Slot Zombie.' So, the more you encourage compulsive gambling, the better you do. Is that really where we are? screenrant.com/grand-casino-t…

Today I am celebrating 10 years since I last placed a bet. I am making it my mission to help educate the public, promote treatment resources and support early intervention efforts. In that way, I am grateful for this horrid affliction...it has clarified my life’s purpose!

Dakota County clerk who stole $650K to feed gambling habit gets 2¼ years in prison strib.mn/3jdhKqv There is so little understanding of gambling addiction in the courts. @JudgeMossGTDC We need your voice in Minnesota!

I'm excited to launch my 3rd episode of "The Push," a program about better understanding gambling addiction. In this episode, I talked with Dan Olson, an expert in change management. We chatted about how we can apply CM concepts to addiction recovery. buzzsprout.com/1198808/8995051

I was laid off from my job of 12+ years yesterday. If this had happened when I was still gambling, the result wouldn’t be pretty. Instead, I went to a GA meeting. Today, I know this was the push I needed to move on to a new career in helping decrease gambling disorder!

Several years ago, I saw Simon Majumdar speak BizInnovationFactory. He said world leaders should talk in a kitchen with a chicken roasting in the oven. He’s right. I have a chicken broth going now, and all I feel is peace and love!

Happy Problem Gambling Awareness Month! The awareness is so critical to decreasing stigma and encouraging people to find resources! #PGAM2022

Sports betting bill gets final push before session ends HBI. Minnesota Senate may be voting on sports gambling bill. House and Senate bills are quite different in addressing gambling harm. Critical work to be done in a VERY short amount of time!

I'm going to be a fanboy this week at #NCPGConf22. I can't wait to meet and listen to the folks who are making positive change to decrease gambling harm!

Serious question to those fighting gambling harm. Has anyone studied how to address stigma from the public? There’s help for the gambler and family, but this stigma comes from somewhere. It’s still viewed as a moral weakness. How do we change public opinion?

It was nerve wracking to post this, but it’s the only way to de-stigmatize this devastating addiction. minnpost.com/community-voic… via MinnPost
