Reflecting On Our Personal Losses with My Step Brother, Ed Gosselin
<p>In this episode, I’m joined by my stepbrother of over 40 years and great friend, Ed Gosselin.

The Hero in the Story
<p>What could be tougher than anybody leaving this earth too early?</p><br><p>As much as no one ever wishes to have a loved one die, it does happen, and everybody copes differently with the loss. The way we perceive a tragedy like that can really change our life, but the truth is, only time is really going to help heal the wounds we have.</p><br><p><strong>Today</strong>, I talk with Harry Morell - a friend of mine, that tragically lost his father in the 9/11 events.

(01:20)</li><li>As you were working through things, did you ever have an epiphany that, “Hey, things might be alright! I’m going to work my way through this”? (03:13)</li><li>Do you feel like your friends, consciously or subconsciously, have played a role in raising you, to an extent?
