Being Vulnerable Can Lead to Victory When Emotions and Feelings Get Set Apart

Welcome to Run Toward The Roar!

How important is passion in thriving? Doesn’t it mean that being passionate about something means being emotionally vulnerable to it?

In this episode of Run Toward The Roar, John continues to guide us in running towards the roar, as he tackles our understanding of counseling versus coaching, and how people in crisis don’t even know that they are in that state.
