MindSet with Tom McNulty, M.S. - Behavioral Health, Neurology & Medical Integration
I'm a former health talk radio host (18+ years) and I want to create a behavioral health focus for my podcast. My shows may be 10-12 minutes up to about 30-45 minutes - depending on the topic and if I bring a guest in via online connections. The content will be clinically sound material, opinion, and topical headline issues (trauma, school shootings, workplace depression, bullying, parenting, etc). I have 45+ years in behavioral health. I'm the co-creator, and co-writer of Episodes-The Movie and The Episodes Project, including Spotlight on the Community. I'm a public speaker and I've written a column on Behavioral Health in the Workplace for City Journals' Business First for 10 years. Please tune-in! Thank you very much! Tell a friend, too!-A Program of Spotlight on Hope, Inc. Produced by Success Stories, Inc.- Sponsored by DENT Neurologic Institute, The Episodes Project, and The Buffalo Renaissance Foundation's Military Committee - Thank you!

MindSet 2023: Fentanyl - Today's Hidden Killer: What You Should Know
Welcome to MindSet 2023 with Tom McNulty, M.S.
Without a doubt, Fentanyl is today's most frightening, sneaky, hidden killer that has taken the lives of 110,000 people last year. It is hidden in opioids, cocaine, marijuana, and street drugs that get laced with Fentanyl such as Xanax - is anything off limits? No!
Unless you get your medicine from pharmacies that use child-proof caps (not guaranteed) or sealed containers, you cannot be 100% certain. Recently, Fentanyl has been presented as colored gummies or tablets that can look like chewable vitamins to attract younger users. These dangerous times require that current and accurate information be disseminated to parents, teachers, law enforcement, religious leaders, EMTs, urgent care/emergency care/primary care, campus security, and the public. This is exactly the mission of The Episodes Project and its Spotlight on the Community program - training and coaching frontline stakeholders at rapid assessment, referral, and follow-up. Many EMTs and police officers indicate that, over the last several years, they are on more overdose calls than heart attacks, accidents, strokes, and other life-threatening calls.
This episode of MindSet 2023 gives you very hard realities of what happens when a loved one ingests Fentanyl and resources to follow to learn more.
