While Eric is in transit, I’m up to bat for posting for the day, beyond IG stories where he’s showing how his size poses interesting travel hurdles – Stacie.
Today, Dr. Bhrett McCabe posted a podcast he did with Eric on his show: Exploring The MindSide.
Dr. McCabe came across WAALC, the #SameHere Movement, and Eric’s personal story after Darren Rovell first tweeted about it. Eric told me to mentioned he is a big fan of Dr. McCabe’s work, thinks he’s an enormous advocate for mental health stigma, and the changes needed. I’ve posted the link to the podcast below. Here is Dr. McCabe’s bio below as well. Very accomplished. He’s published a book and many articles in prominent publications on top of all of this:
Dr. Bhrett McCabe is the founder of The MindSide and a Licensed Clinical Psychologist holding a PhD degree in clinical psychology from Louisiana State University (LSU), with an emphasis in behavioral medicine having completed his internship at Brown University in Providence, RI.
