Building Bridges: Emotional CPR with Dr. Daniel Fisher
“The opposite of addiction is not sobriety, the opposite of addiction is connection.”
How do we truly connect with others in times of emotional crisis? In this episode, Dr. Anna Baranowsky sits down with Dr. Daniel Fisher and Shontelle Prokipcak to discuss Emotional CPR (E-CPR), a transformative approach designed to foster real human connections and strong communities. E-CPR stands for Connection, emPowering, and Revitalizing, and it's all about learning how to be present for those everyday emotional revelations that can significantly impact our lives. Dr.
Fisher, a psychiatrist and the brain behind E-CPR, shares his belief that the essence of recovery lies in these genuine connections. He delves into how this method helps individuals navigate their trauma by building a supportive network around them. Also joining the conversation is Shontelle Prokipcak, who has been instrumental in bringing E-CPR training to the Ottawa region. Together, they explore the intersection of trauma, mental health, substance abuse, and post-traumatic growth. Dr.
Fisher also touches on a powerful idea: the opposite of addiction isn't sobriety; it's connection. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the profound impact of human connection in emotional healing and recovery.
