In this episode, enjoy this deeply moving (and sometimes humorous) conversation with my guest, Dr. Greg Linkowski, diagnostic radiologist (retired), spiritual mentor, author and bereaved dad since 2002. From a childhood fuelled by chaos, his dad's addiction, emotional upheaval and witnessing his father’s darkest struggles, to the devastating loss of his young son years later, Greg shares his story of resilience and courage with unabashed honesty and vulnerability to offer hope and guidance to anyone walking a similar path.
In his new book, “Dare to Thrive”, Greg states that while pain is inevitable, it does not have to define who we are. Through faith, courage and hope, we can heal our deepest wounds and transform our lives.
Key Insights From Our Conversation:
• A Life Shaped by Early Trauma
• The Generational Impact of Trauma
• Faith as a Foundation for Healing
• Parenting a Seriously Ill Child
• The Power of Community and Support
• Finding Meaning After Loss
This is a heartfelt conversation to help anyone navigating trauma, loss and other struggles.
