Summary
Jason VanRuler, author of recent new book, Get Past Your Past: How Facing Your Broken Places Leads to True Connection, joins Heather to address past pain and hurt as the first step to find healing and authentic connection. He uses biblical wisdom, clinical experience and his own personal story growing up surrounded by abuse, addiction and conflict, leading to his own drug and alcohol issues. He remembers hitting his rock bottom, looking in the mirror and hating who he saw, falling into the same unhealthy patterns he saw growing up and swore would never be his life. He reexamined his relationship with drugs/alcohol and went back to school to become a therapist. Now Jason is known for his ability to relate and connect with his clients and offer hope to those who have felt hopeless. He has an engaged and rapidly growing online audience for his insightful, short videos sharing practical tips for psychological care, self-help, and healthy relationships.

| 0:00.0 | Hey friend, welcome to Healthy by Heather Brown. |
| 0:04.6 | Do terms like mental health, intermittent fasting, and buzzy wellness words make you feel overwhelmed? |
| 0:10.0 | If you don't know where to start with loving the life you already have and letting your good things grow until they become daily habits, I got you, Mama. |
| 0:17.3 | So join me as we unpack what it looks like to live a life well-loved and redefine a new |
| 0:22.6 | approach to health from the inside out. Think of the space as your girlfriend's group text with the |
| 0:28.1 | occasional dad joke and point of view from my Yankee hubby, Eric. We promise to give you key |
| 0:32.9 | takeaways that you can implement right away to pursue health in your mind, body, and soul. Because |
| 0:39.0 | God made us that way. Don't stress. Let's hop on this Hot Mess Express together. |
| 0:48.8 | Hello, everybody. Welcome back to another episode of Healthy by Heather Brown. I am so thrilled today to bring on to the mic, Jason Van Ruler, who is a speaker, former podcaster we were talking about before we hit the record button. He's also an author, a licensed therapist, and he has over a decade of experience and specializes in relationships, trauma, and intimacy. |
| 1:11.4 | And he also loves to travel the world hosting retreats, which I'm like, maybe I'm in the |
| 1:15.9 | wrong industry. |

| 1:18.9 | But what he specializes in is helping people get past their past and get connected |

| 1:28.7 | and how that interacts with your health because it's more than you think. And with all that said, |
| 1:32.9 | Jason, welcome to the show. Hey, thank you so much for having me in those kind words. I've been looking |
| 1:38.2 | forward to this all week. Yeah, same here. Actually, Jason, little behind the scenes. I'm basically, |
| 1:45.1 | and I've been on Christmas break with a podcast since the beginning of December. So you're actually my first interview back. |
| 1:50.0 | So if I'm a little rusty, then that's what's going on. Oh, I love it. It's good to take that time off, |
| 1:54.8 | and it's nice to get back, too. Yes, agree on both friends. So, Jason, do you mind telling people a little bit about where you're from? |
