Surviving Chaos with Harold Phifer: Episode 331

Send us a text For over a decade, Harold Phifer served in a war-zone as a contract air-controller in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Guantanamo Bay. He even survived a suicide bombing by the Taliban. He tells a moving story in his newest book, My Bully, My aunt, and Her Final Gift. It comes on the heels of publishing his earlier book, Surviving Chaos: How I Found Peace At A Beach Bar, which exposed a lot of people that affected the life of the author. Besides his problematic mother, Aunt Kelly left a lasting imprint.  “She was the opposite of all things positive,” says Phifer. “At the end of her twisted life it was painfully obvious to me that she deserved a book of her very own. The death of my evil aunt allowed me to see myself while operating a door for my brothers and me.”  Most of the contents in this story are recreated from real-life experiences of a lost and misguided kid. Some things have been changed for the sake of a better read.  For more information on Harold Phifer, please visit: https://www.riseandread.com Book your interview today, visit website: https://www.itsallabouthealingpodcast.com or email me: itsallabouthealing17@gmail.com If you're ready to talk, we're ready to listen!  ©2025 Soul Healer17:77, LLC.
