Thom Rutledge & the good Dr. Allen Berger are proud to announce that they know what a podcast is…and they even have one.
Courage is to fear as light is to darkness.
The dark never goes away.
We turn on the light.
PSYCHOTHERAPIST AUTHOR SPEAKER CONSULTANT
I have discovered something more important to me than happiness: self-respect. Even on a bad day, a day when I am far from being my own biggest fan, my integrity can remain intact. That is the ultimate measure of myself, at the end of a day, and ultimately at the end of my life. It's not about what happens to me; it is always about how I respond. It's not about how I am treated; it's about what I choose to do with whatever that is. - Thom

About Thom Rutledge
Best-selling author, Thom, is the inspirational, motivational and constantly entertaining speaker for your next event. He has been featured on NBC's Today Show, CNN's Anderson Cooper 360º, Australia's Channel 10 and has consulted for The Dr. Phil Show.

A Lifetime of Being Helpful for Living
At 70, having been in intimate conversation with people about most every subject imaginable for more than 40 years, having written several books about fear, forgiveness, self-respect, addiction, eating disorders, relationships, love, success and even meditation, having spent years on the road facilitating professional training seminars and personal growth workshops, I am just looking for opportunities to talk with people about what I consider the most fascinating things I have learned. If you have a group of people -- employees, friends, clients, patients, Congress, whatever -- please consider inviting me to speak and/or facilitate a program for you. Thank you. And peace be with you. TR
The International Involuntary Covid Retreat has changed the world in many ways. For one, most every one is at least reasonably fluent with online video conferencing (Zoom, FaceTime, etc). I am seeing clients in my Nashville office again, which is a pleasure. But I remain available for remote individual and group consultations. Contact me to set a time to meet.
Living in a Post-Covid World
Also, the past four years have included a lot more collaboration with my colleague and friend, Allen Berger. We produced a 12-Episode Video Series for extra support during the pandemic and I believe that series remains relevant for our ongoing recovery practices. Plus, we did a 40 Episode Podcast called Start Right Here: Conversations about What Matters Most that remains available, and we are hip deep into an ongoing weekly podcast called Emotional Sobriety: Recovery's Next Frontier. Look for both of those wherever you get your podcasts. Allen and I are now making plans to do some in person workshops and we are also available to come to your organization/city to present our latest work with emotional sobriety. If you have an interest, just let me know.
