A diagnosis is a shock. No one is ever prepared.

Being smart (IQ), or educated, or successful in your career won’t help very much. 

How do you survive and even thrive in your relationships and career when you or someone close to you is facing this challenge?

Well you start with Dr. Jackie Black––our guest on this episode of Walking the WalkOne of the life challenges I hear from leaders today is facing the prospect of a serious illness––either our own or someone close to us.

Dr. Jackie Black is a noted author, speaker and coach––and that’s the short list of her talents. She is rated by COSMO as one of their most beloved love gurus and now she’s the creator and facilitator of COUPLES DARING TO LIVE WELL (with illness) PROGRAM™ - a 7-Week online program guiding couples living with illness to reignite their closeness, effectively comfort themselves and each other, skillfully relate to each other during challenging times…
