Description

You never know how a podcast interview will turn out with someone you’ve just met.  I take a chance every time I set one up.  But this podcast session with Eric did not disappoint.  We did everything but cry (maybe next time) in his quest to help my men over 40 with their divorce recovery issues.  Eric is a certified counselor with years of experience in treating trauma, addiction, depression, grief and other concerns.  Discussions of Acronyms, self-love and self-compassion, Survival mode, setbacks, four types of bouncing (back), and grief are all touched upon in this podcast.
