Justin Long: Asking for Help Isn't Weakness
from Real Things Living Hosted by Brigitte Cutshall
Author, Justin B. Long, spent decades bouncing through life like a pinball, reacting to everything but directing nothing—until trauma therapy at age 40 showed him that childhood wounds don't have to define his adult life. His raw, honest conversation reveals how one man's journey from abuse to authenticity is changing workplace culture and proving that asking for help isn't weakness, it's transformation. 3 Key Takeaways: (1) Resilience is Learned: Justin and Brigitte discuss that resilience is not an inborn quality, but rather something that grows and develops over time, fueled by your life experiences. (2) The Path Through Trauma: Justin shares the story behind his book, "The Righteous Rage of a Ten-Year-Old Boy", and how his journey through therapy helped him unlearn negative self-beliefs and overcome the effects of childhood abuse. (3) Redefining Leadership: As the Hospital Administrator for the Spring Hill Equine Veterinary Clinic, Justin discusses how he shifted his leadership approach to focus on providing his team with the resources, tools, and emotional support they need to truly excel.
