River Time: Reclaiming Your Place In The World
About this episode
Today Doug opens the container with author and river guide Bridget Crocker.
Doug opens the show describing the magic of river time. The feeling when one goes on a river trip and the confines of our modern lives go out the window. Where the simplicity and routine of the tasks required on the river take over and how this is especially true for those with ADHD.
Doug is then joined by Bridget Crocker, a renowned river guide and author of The River’s Daughter; which is available to the public on the same day this episode comes out.
Bridget shares her insights on how navigating rivers can serve as a metaphor for personal growth and healing from trauma. She recounts the lessons she learned from a life on the river and the learnings it provided her as she navigated her own family trauma and subsequent healing.
