Alec Pulianas is a real one. He shared vulnerably about his ongoing healing journey. We talked about:
-how losing his dad created ripple effects through his life: from dealing with the stages of his dad’s illness, to his final memories going to Rush concerts together, the shifts in his relationship with his mom, and the importance for him of maintaining a sense of self in his marriage knowing the worst that could happen
-the weakening family ties that changed his social network in favor of chosen family
-healing perfectionism through working on his podcast and learning what’s “good enough”
-how his relationship with his wife forced him to confront his unrealistic expectations
-healing through associating feelings and soothing himself with music
