Advocate for Yourself – Protecting Your Well being During Chaos | Guest Dr. Ericka Goodwin

The Full Contact Life Podcast

Today my guest is the accomplished and intellectual Dr. Ericka Goodwin. Listen closely as Dr. Goodwin shares her insights on managing the impact of the current reality on our overall well being. With all that is unsettled right now, many people struggle to find inner peace or any peace for that matter. These feelings are new for many of us. Especially those who crave human physical contact. Simple things like a week without the kids to be all alone with no one to touch or the daily handshakes or hugs we took for granted seem more important than before. The messaging and marketing that is ever-present in our current society is borderline offensive for its volume if nothing else. So how do you keep your sanity and peace when you feel like you have no control? Dr. Goodwin does an incredible job of answering that and other questions as we go Full Contact with Coach Arlo the SwitchOn Coach on this episode of The Full Contact Life Podcast.
