Have you ever started a podcast and five episodes in you get to have a conversation with one of your favorite teachers that you've never met in person?

Traver Boehm is an author, 2 time TEDx speaker, podcast host and creator of the worldwide men's community: Man Uncivilized.

I first stumbled on to Traver's work in 2017, via his TEDx talk from the year before. I was in the beginning stages of my own "how did my life get like this" moment navigating the dismantling of my 15 year marriage and walking into life as a single mom.

I had known grief through the loss of my parents in early childhood and young adulthood, but I had never met the type of pain that comes from this kind of chapter ending.

Travers twelve minute TEDx talk helped set the framework for my own healing journey as I listened to his lived experience that catapulted him into the transformative work he now leads others through.

In this episode we discuss his personal story of loss, his attempts to run from pain, and the year he decided to face it all.

Take a deep breath and be ready to be blown away!
