Nothing Wrong, Something Missing
from Brilliant Perspectives · host Graham Cooke
What happens when we discover there's nothing wrong with the difficult person in our life—only something missing? Graham Cooke shares the story of completely losing his composure with an intensely negative person, and the stunning revelation that followed.
