Jamie Rittenberry has one heck of a story, but he might sometimes be reluctant to share it as he admits to being uncomfortable participating in the "trauma-olympics." While he faced a ton of adversity, his humble and kind nature led him to downplay his own experiences so as not to diminish anyone else's.
I was simply hoping to learn more about Jamie's life and what kind of magic it took for him to not only survive but to garner so much wisdom along the way, while serving as an RN and co-parenting his children.
What I didn't expect? To be educated on polyamory... stick with us, it's towards the end! We talked about foster care, love, co-parenting, sobriety, early interventions, and ultimately being a cycle breaker.
The book I attempted to reference: This Naked Mind
(Sidenote: I fully support Alcoholics Anonymous, I know many for which it has helped greatly! For those who are seeking support, there is much to be had! Find what works for you!)
I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did.
Join me on the Fall Retreat in Northern Michigan November 2-5th.
