028 — Stepping Forward From Grief & Loss with John Marshall Roberts
While many of us have faced challenges since the onset of COVID-19, today’s guest has experienced an onslaught of losses in the past several weeks, beginning with contracting Coronavirus, then unknowingly passing it to his father, who ended up dying from it. Add to that the end of a five year relationship, and the death of a beloved pet, and you’ll get to see a picture of how the last couple of months have gone for John Marshall Roberts.
While John is known for his research, teaching, writing, and speaking, today’s episode focuses on the deeply personal, including dealing with overwhelming emotion, core wounds, feelings of abandonment, and insights John has come to as a result of the “condensed curriculum” offered by the past few months of his life.
In today’s deep and vulnerable conversation with John Marshall Roberts, you’ll hear about:
Learning to embrace and accept the emotions that arise from painful experiences
John’s approach to dealing with his core wound
Why the real problems in the world stem from unconscious trauma
Having internal security in the face of changing circumstances in the external world
Seeing the love behind the darkness in yourself and others
Core principles John strives to follow (Truth, Honor, Love, Integrity)
The work of Clare W. Graves, including Spiral Dynamics
Anger as a fundamental component of being human
John’s near death experience in 2014
Why John, despite being essentially non-religious, looks to Jesus Christ as the ultimate role model
