Episode 12: Looking Backwards: Life Hacks From The Wisdom of Elders

The Evolved Caveman w/ Dr. John Schinnerer

The Wisdom of Elders. What can we learn from the wisdom of men who have suffered trauma, made mistakes & risen above it all? As it turns out, we can learn an incredible amount.
Don St John’s life has been nothing short of miraculous. He suffered abuse in childhood—violent beatings & constant verbal abuse. In his early twenties, he was incapable of feeling human connection, had poor impulse control, drank excessively & had poor physical health. By age 35, he had gone through 3 marriages & 3 divorces. He had very little, if any, sense of connection to his body or to his emotions. His life trajectory looked bleak indeed.
Today, psychologist & author of the award winning book, Healing the Wounds of Childhood: A Psychologist’s Journey And Discoveries From Wretched Beginnings To A Thriving Life, shares & teaches about the work he has done and how he transformed his life from the inside out. He offers ways for others to do the same, no matter what the age or what their beginnings.
