Thom Rutledge & the good Dr. Allen Berger are proud to announce that they know what a podcast is…and they even have one.
Courage is to fear as light is to darkness.
The dark never goes away.
We turn on the light.
PSYCHOTHERAPIST AUTHOR SPEAKER CONSULTANT
I have discovered something more important to me than happiness: self-respect. Even on a bad day, a day when I am far from being my own biggest fan, my integrity can remain intact. That is the ultimate measure of myself, at the end of a day, and ultimately at the end of my life. It's not about what happens to me; it is always about how I respond. It's not about how I am treated; it's about what I choose to do with whatever that is. - Thom
