This week, we’re talking all about emotional abuse; the ins and outs of how to recognize the abuse, how to heal from the abuse, and how to protect others from its insidious effects. Joining me are two trusted friends, Dr. Dave Strubler, whose 40-plus years in organizational leadership and social work have given him an up-close view of emotional abuse at work in culture, as well as his son, another friend, Mark Strubler, a licensed professional counselor, who specializes in trauma recovery.
