Transacting Value Podcast

Joshua "Porter" Porthouse

Looking for ways to reinvigorate your self-worth or help instill it in others? You're in the right place. Transacting Value Podcast is a weekly, episodic, conversation-styled podcast that instigates self-worth through personal values. We talk about the impacts of personal values on themes like job satisfaction, mitigating burnout, establishing healthy boundaries, enhancing self-worth, and deepening interpersonal relationships. 


This is a podcast about increasing satisfaction in life and your pursuit of happiness, increasing mental resilience, and how to actually build awareness around what your values can do for you as you grow through life. 


As a divorced Marine with combat and humanitarian deployments, and a long-distanced parent, I've fought my own demons and talked through cultures around the world about their strategies for rebuilding self-worth or shaping perspective. As a 3d Degree Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do and a lifelong martial artist, I have studied philosophy, psychology, history, and humanities to find comprehensive insights to help all of our Contributors on the show add value for you, worthy of your time.

  • 135 - Embracing the Fire of Adversity: Michael Allison on Cultivating Resilience and Self-Worth

    Have you ever wondered about the steel that forges a person's resilience in the face of relentless adversity? My guest, Michael Allison, CEO of Adversity Academy, joins me to unravel the profound resilience and self-worth that are born from life's harshest trials. From surviving natural disasters in Jamaica to navigating the gritty streets of Miami, Michael's life story serves as a backdrop for our conversation about embracing our unique experiences to fuel leadership and personal growth. We contemplate the significance of self-validation and integrity in today's digital landscape and how to turn individual challenges into catalysts for change.

    Trauma can be a tenacious shadow, but the journey toward healing and growth is illuminated in this episode. Michael and I tackle the arduous task of finding the right counselor, the courage required to confront one's past, and the role of neurolinguistic programming in battling PTSD. We share stories of individuals who've rewired their thought patterns and, in doing so, have transformed not just their own lives but also the emotional climate of their relationships. The narratives are a testament to the readiness for change and the power of focused intention in overcoming life's scars.

    Concluding our heartfelt discourse, we address the universal struggles of quitting, recovery, and burnout, acknowledging the silent battles many face. With personal anecdotes and discussions on the value of community support, we underscore the availability of resources like SAMHSA.gov and the National Crisis Line for those in need. Our exchange is not just a conversation; it's an invitation to you, the listener, to join us in this collective journey of self-discovery and growth, reminding you that you're an integral part of a much larger narrative.

  • 134 - From Surviving to Thriving: Manya Chylinski's Tale of Recovery with Empathy

    Have you ever wondered what it means to truly walk in someone else's shoes, especially when their path has been scattered with the debris of trauma? That question is at the heart of our latest episode, where I sit down with Manya Chylinski, a courageous Boston Marathon bombing survivor, and delve into how personal tragedies can reshape the landscape of our lives and work. We navigate the silent battles of mental health, revealing the power of community support and understanding in healing emotional scars.

    In our conversation, we don't just recount Manya's harrowing experiences; we also dissect the necessity of compassionate and human-centric spaces, particularly in our professional environments. As we uncover the stories behind the work facade, we champion the creation of workplaces that honor the full spectrum of the human experience—spaces where vulnerability isn't a liability but a gateway to authentic connections and collective strength. Our discussion serves as a call to arms for leaders and coworkers alike to embrace empathy and psychological safety as cornerstones of a supportive culture.

    Wrapping up with a candid look at trauma and advocacy, Manya's journey illuminates the significance of facing one's past with an open heart and mind. This episode is a powerful testament to overcoming the stigma associated with PTSD and other mental health challenges through the transformative act of vulnerability. Join us for an intimate exploration of personal resilience as we share not only our struggles but also the profound insights and tools that aid in recovery.

  • 133 - Navigating Life's Tapestry through Legends and Values with Jamie Ryder

    Host Josh Porthouse sits with Jamie Ryder to discuss the intricate weave of personal values and timeless legends; we uncover the threads of honor, duty, and loyalty that bind our collective human narrative. Jamie, hailing from the UK and bringing a love for all things fantasy, comics, and Japanese culture, shares how these tales, from samurai to Kintaro, parallel modern quests for identity and purpose. Our dialogue reveals the universal constants in our ever-evolving societal tapestry, reminding us that these values are as relevant today as they were in the ancient stories that continue to shape us.

    Writing can be a beacon in the fog of our internal struggles, something I've found true in my own journey through journaling and reflection. Jamie opens up about his path through mental health issues, how literature has provided a sanctuary, and the subsequent birth of his own business. Together, we navigate the synergy between creativity and therapeutic self-expression, touching upon the transformative power of storytelling in understanding our lives. There's a harmony in writing that allows us to authentically connect with others, a theme resonating through our discussion on how creative outlets can reframe our experiences with anxiety and shape our social interactions.

    Venturing into the abstract, we examine the potential of cosmic energy to influence our creativity and worldview. I share the profound personal changes brought about by immersing myself in Japanese culture, a journey of becoming more open-minded and daring. Our episode wouldn't be complete without acknowledging the vital role of mental health in our pursuit of self-discovery and the importance of fostering resilience and positivity. Through these conversations, we not only seek to understand the diverse facets of the human condition but also to inspire others in their own explorations of self and society. Join us on this expedition through the rich and complex landscape of human experience and the art of the written word.
