JR's Path to Purpose: Recovery Without a Higher Power
“I'm here to be authentic, real and vulnerable with you and try and connect in some shape or form, and I think that's a great point you mentioned earlier. I didn't realize it, but those are the three things. Number one, empirical principles are the concept of learning through experience, that you deduct all of our knowledge through stimuli within a moment or environment. So, by that being the case, when we're able to talk about our experiences and have them relate to each other, that authenticity, that realness that happens there becomes powerful.”
