Epic Comebacks, with Cindy Finch

"Grief is actually a guru that guides us, taking us through the dark night of the soul and transforming us—even when it feels like it’s breaking us down." Listen in as Cindy Finch, a seasoned therapist, cancer survivor, and author of the powerful new workbook Epic Comeback dives deep into the gritty journey of healing from life's toughest challenges, including cancer, grief, divorce, and personal betrayal. She opens up about the importance of relationships, the concept of post-traumatic growth, and the critical difference between empathy and sympathy. Join us as we explore how hardship reshapes us and how Cindy's workbook is designed to guide readers through their own epic comebacks with empathy, resilience, and a healthy dose of real talk.
