Second-Hand High
Welcome to Second-Hand High, where feel-good stories go to thrive. While walking the dog around our apartment, I was hit by a cloud of pot smoke. I wondered... is a contact high real? Spoiler alert: yes. It also made me think of the happy feels we get when we witness someone doing a good deed to make the world better and brighter-- a feel-good high of a different kind.
Now, I'm ready to hear about the times other people inspired you, whether it changed you profoundly, or simply left you feeling more optimistic about humankind. The goal is for us to leave each other's lives better than we found them. So sit back, relax, and let's ride the high together!

Will's High
It’s great to be back after a long, refreshing hiatus, and now I’m ready to kick off season 2! In the premiere episode, I'm joined by Will Grove— a *Pennsylvania native, serious foodie, and my colleague at the Brain Injury Alliance of Arizona. His high is a two-for-one, where he recounts how at a Phoenix-based museum, the kind treatment of the employees towards a young child in his care with behavioral struggles made the day. This kiddo then turned around and reminded Will what it means to literally give your all to those in need.
*Edit: In the intro, I refer to Will as a "Philly native." He is, in fact, from Erie, PA.
