Men and Emotional Processing? We don't see enough of it in today's world . . .
In Part 1 of this 2 part episode series, host Lindsay Poelman interviews Dan Gurley, the first male guest on the podcast. Dan shares his journey from growing up in a high-demand Southern Christian culture to dealing with severe family trauma and emotional struggles. He discusses the impact of his high-pressure upbringing, his experiences with spiritual bypassing, and the profound challenges he faced as a father.
The conversation delves into the processing of emotions, the concept of spiritual bypassing, and the importance of emotional healing. Dan's story illustrates the need for self-compassion and inner child work, particularly for men navigating complex emotional landscapes. This episode highlights the significance of trauma-informed coaching and provides a compelling case for Lindsay's certification program in emotional recovery and healing.
