E50 Beyond the Guru: Building a Safer Self-Help Community w/ the folks at SEEKSafely.org

In this episode, I am joined by Dr. Glenn Doyle, SEEK Safely Board President, and Jean Brown, manager and board member of SEEK, to discuss several upcoming events and programs we are launching in the coming months.

SEEK Safely was born in response to the tragedy that took three people's lives, including Jean's sister Kirby Brown, due to an irresponsibly run pseudo sweat lodge. Almost 13 years later, the self-help and wellness industries continue to be among the most risky and unregulated spaces out there.

Listen in as we discuss the launch of what we are calling the SEEK Safely movement. We'll cover the 'whys' and 'wherefores' of the upcoming programs and opportunities SEEK and iLumn8.Life are collaborating on. We'll also discuss why we believe those of us who have been impacted in both good and bad ways are precisely the right people to advocate for a safer and more ethical self-help space.
