Being Well with Forrest Hanson and Dr. Rick Hanson

I am so glad I stumbled onto this show a year or so ago. Rick and Forrest both have so much great knowledge to share. On top of that you can just tell that they genuinely care about people and the work they are doing. I have seen some criticism of Forrest since he doesn’t have the credentials his Dad does. Normally I would feel the same, but I have learned a ton from both him and Rick. Forrest clearly cares and is informed about what he’s speaking about. This isn’t another no substance self help podcast from people who haven’t a clue. These guys are the real deal and I learn something every single time I listen. I also wanted to note that they have calming, friendly voices. This may seem trivial, but if you are someone with trauma who is listening to learn about sometimes tough subjects, a friendly and calm voice is so welcome. They don’t try to be funny or cool, they just seem to be themselves and we are so lucky they decide to share that with us. Thanks Rick and Forrest, you both continue to add to my life in a positive way.

Please keep up the interesting and amazing work! Also, just finished the “everything I’ve learned (so far)…” episode and loved it so much here’s the text I added when I shared it with my parents (74 & 76 years old and still reaching for realization): “I just finished this episode, and thought you guys would also appreciate it. Not only is it stuffed full of great and enlightening information, but it also celebrates the part of each of us that has been pushing for self-realization these last few years. I hope you find time to enjoy this episode in its entirety ❤️❤️”

I have listened to this episode twice and found it to be very helpful and challenging at the same time. This topic is one I have been struggling with and you presented it in a way that was meaningful and had great strategies to apply. Thanks for all you do to bring this content to the world.

I found a lot of insight in the conversation about emotionally pursuing- avoiding relationships. Much new fodder for self-awareness. Thank you.
