Eric Kussin has a story that is going to sound very familiar to a lot of our listeners out there. Eric was a 4 sport athlete, successful in college, and found himself in a high stakes and high consequence world of the NBA and NHL. Everything in his life was going well... until it wasn't.
When Eric realized much too late that a lifetime of trauma and avoidance had come to fruition, he was thrown into a 2 year period of darkness and despair. But, like all good hero origin stories, that was only the beginning, not the end.
Eric was able to get the help he needed and find a way through his darkness, and that led him to Same Here Global. Initially, Eric started "We're All a Little Crazy Here", a 501c3 organization that wanted to connect all traumas to help others find a tribe to help them through it. That evolved into Same Here Global bringing together Athletes, Celebrities, and Expert Practitioners to help all people struggling with mental health issues.
Please check out Same Here Global at https://samehereglobal.org/ and support if you can. We appreciate Eric's willingness to tell his story and his efforts to find new and better ways to help those dealing with trauma.
