Hello Warriors and Battle Buddies!
Welcome to A BATTLE WITHIN, Episode 137
Advocacy can be a challenging thing, especially when your world is turned upside down, your in pain, and maybe even struggling to find yourself again. This can be a real struggle and one that cannot be pushed aside as one tries to heal.
In today’s conversation Drew and Terry explore this topic, offer some insight from their experiences, some resources available, as well as some strategies that might help you as you learn to or look to enhance your own ability on this front.
Advocacy is all about self sponsorship and not raising your hand and waiting, but an active and ongoing necessity. It is also not only reserved for the medical and legal professionals, but in all aspects of life.
Let us know what you think after listening in!
