empty chair podcast
’empty chair podcast’ is inspired by the loss - the empty spaces left behind. How do we fill these spaces? How do we continue when we do not feel ’whole’? Let’s look at the many ways people develop resilience in the process of overcoming suffering. Your host, Trev Doyle, injects a personal voice behind the statistics and mainstream slant regarding life events such as relationship breakdown, parenting issues, child court, domestic violence, parental alienation, false allegation, betrayal, forgiveness, spiritual development, identity and the value of love and connection - in short, the Good and Bad of humanity! Experience inspirational stories of overcoming adversity and the value of finding your ’voice’. Be prepared to laugh, to cry and to be engaged by real people telling their truth. Add a generous dose of humour and we have a community collaboratively connecting and supporting one another. Expert guests provide strategies to cope with the rocky road of life and people who have lived their personal nightmare talk about their growth emotionally, psychologically and spiritually. ’empty chair’ spreads the message of the importance of kindness and love. So ’empty chair’ is a place for everyone. Share in the Experience the heart-felt stories of those with lived experiences finding the joy amid the suffering and finding the light amongst the darkness.
