In Episode 24 of the 365 Proof Podcast by Defining Wellness, Carly Caver sits down with Rudy Bazin a Haitian-born entrepreneur, husband, father, author, and founder of Sommet Accounting Systems for a conversation about success, identity, community, and the pressure to carry everything on our own.

Rudy shares how growing up in Haiti shaped his view of community, how his definition of success changed after coming to America, and why true strength doesn’t always mean independence.

We also talk about the difference between helping and fixing, the importance of preserving dignity during difficult seasons, and the message behind his forthcoming book, The Voodoo Priest Next Door.

This conversation is a reminder that overcoming doesn’t have to mean doing it alone and that sometimes the most powerful thing we can offer another person is the chance to feel seen, valued, and supported.

In Episode 23 of the 365 Proof Podcast by Defining Wellness, Daniel, Courtney, and Linda sit down with Dr. Greg Caudill for a powerful conversation about addiction, recovery, medicine, and the role of spirituality in healing.

Dr. Caudill shares his remarkable journey from struggling with severe opioid and heroin addiction while attending medical school to finding recovery and ultimately becoming board-certified in general psychiatry and addiction psychiatry. He discusses the people who helped save his life, the science behind addiction, medication-assisted treatment, harm reduction, and why recovery requires more than simply removing the substance.

It’s an honest look at what happens when personal experience, medical science, and a life of recovery come together to help others find their own path forward.
