I’ve been following Sebastian Junger’s work for some time now. It’s been his war documentaries, however, such as Restrepo (http://www.sebastianjunger.com/films-1/) and Korengal (http://www.sebastianjunger.com/films-1/), that have pulled me in and had an impact on me and the work I now do.When I saw that he had a new book coming out which looked at our need for community and connection, as seen through the eyes of combat veterans, I knew I wanted to invite him on the podcast. I contacted him on Facebook. A little while later, he responded. Here we are! Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-trauma-therapist--5739761/support.---Thank you for listening!If you want to support the show, I've got three options and every bit helps.$5.00 PayPalhttps://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/NPKS32G8KVSN2$10.00 PayPalhttps://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/495AMDFXQFC3L$15.00 PayPalhttps://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/M7V5RREUKVD8JThank you to our Sponsors: Jane App - use code GUY1MO at https://jane.app (https://jane.app/book_a_demo)

Today, it’s personal. In this episode I share how my experience with the podcast and interviewing my incredible guests have impacted my life--as a husband, a father, a therapist, and as a son. This episode was taken from a blog post (http://www.thetraumatherapistproject.com/blog/let-go-dragged/) I wrote a few weeks ago. I deliberated whether or not I should write it, and I did.
