Hey, listeners! Bernie and I continue our conversations on 'connection' and 'numbness' as we re-connect to each other after a year or so apart (thanks global pandemic).

This is episode 2 of 3 in our series where Bernie goes deeper in describing his feelings of numbness and explores more about where they are coming from, why they're there and what he can do now.

I chime in with my usual... 'it's OK to be here, wow look at your strengths, B... and let's make sense of this...' rah rah support.

With heart and humor, we tackle what it feels like when you're spiraling down and disconnected.

CW: Bernie re-discloses a childhood trauma, he doesn't go into any detail about it, the focus is not on his trauma. It's a naming and an acknowledgement.
