Drops July 29, 2024

 

Just about everyone has had an experience that has led to wondering if there’s a way forward. Sometimes it’s so devastating that you can’t see a path no matter how hard you try. According to Dr. Ken Druck, it’s not always clear how to go on. And that’s okay! He offers a guide for when we find ourselves feeling lost, uncertain, or even terrified about the road ahead. Dr. Druck is one of the nation's leading grief and resilience experts. Since losing his own daughter in a tragic accident, and later working with families after 9/11, Sandy Hook, and Columbine, he has dedicated his life to helping others learn how to face hardships and navigate life’s daily ups and downs. Dr. Druck is a best selling author of more than a dozen books, a recipient of the prestigious Distinguished Contribution to Psychology award, and a speaker. He is often featured in national press. His new book is, How We Go On: Self-Compassion, Courage, and Gratitude on the Path Forward.

Also in this episode, Dr. Greg Sorkin, the chair of Emergency Medicine at Bergen New Bridge Medical Center, discusses Summer health and safety.
