Forever Isn’t Long Enough

by Dan Clouser | Apr 24, 2025 | Four Paws and Six Wheels, Many Little People, The Journey, Youkilis, the Golden Retriever | 0 |

Today marks one year since Youk took his last ride.

I don’t think a day goes by that Sandy and I don’t have a conversation about him. When we arrive at a new spot, or a park to walk or ride our bikes at, almost inevitably, one of us will say, “Youk would have loved this place.”

Our life is so different without him in it anymore.

This past weekend at my book signing in Clarksville, Tennessee, I was telling a family Youk’s story. I told them, “He had a good long life. He lived to be a little over 15-years-old, got to see 46 states, and one Canadian province with us, but we still miss him every day. No matter how long you have them, you want them around longer.”

The father of the family, immediately responded, “Yeah, forever isn’t long enough.”

That hit me like a ton of bricks. “Ain’t that the truth.” I replied.

Bryan Driscoll – The Goodness Game

by Dan Clouser | Apr 4, 2025 | Many Little People, Podcasts, The Journey | 0 |

That one small act of kindness left an indelible mark on Bryan’s life and set off a ripple effect that lasted over twenty years now, with most recently leading him to write his first book, The Goodness Game.

Bryan states, “It all started with a single act of kindness. About 20 years ago, I found myself at a crossroads in life-lost and unsure of where I was heading. That’s when a kind stranger, a woman I’ll never forget, picked me up off the street and gave me a helping hand when I needed it most. This small act changed the entire course of my life, reminding me of the power one person can have on another’s future.”

“Years later, I decided to pay it forward. Inspired by that experience, I made a simple Craigslist post offering free help to anyone in need. The response was overwhelming, and that small gesture quickly caught the attention of local media. The story spread across the country, making national headlines as a shining example of how small acts of kindness can create a ripple effect far larger than you ever imagined.”

Dr. Michael Hutchison – Concussion Reduction

by Dan Clouser | Mar 28, 2025 | Many Little People, Podcasts, Sports, The Journey | 0 |

Dr. Hutchison is a cosmetic and Neuromuscular Dentist who lives in Traverse City, Mi and has researched, developed and patented a new technology that uses your body’s physiology to increase your strength and lower the chance of concussion.

While treating TMJ, Head and neck patients Dr. Hutchison discovered that there is a body mechanism that is found in the position of your jaw that either blocks or releases motor nerve communication to all the muscles in your body. When it is working correctly you can increase your strength and performance by 16.8% on average. While testing this mechanism, none of the subjects had a concussion for the 6 years of the study. These two factors led to the development of a new jaw positioning mouth appliance that immediately increases strength and lowers the chance of concussion down to 0.2%.

This new technology is called NeuroGuard+. Its mission is to help prevent concussions in youth athletes. We want to teach everyone to embrace the discovery of Physiologic Jaw alignment when participating in sports because you will reduce the risk of concussive forces reaching your brain, and you will increase your strength and performance.
