Send us a textIn this raw and deeply personal episode—which Coach Rodo calls his own "therapy session"—he opens up about the 13-year anniversary of losing his best friend and brother, Lorenzo Donnell Marshall.Rodo challenges common clichés about grief, rejecting the idea that "time heals all wounds" or that a lost loved one is simply "in a better place." He offers profound advice on how to live with the pain of loss, discussing the difference between moving "forward" (forgetting) and moving "ahead" (carrying on).The episode gives listeners a critical lesson in resilience, vulnerability, and remembrance: the importance of saying their name so they don't die twice. Rodo shares how his own children saw him cry, emphasizing that it's okay for men and fathers to be vulnerable. This conversation is dedicated to anyone who needs a session of real human emotion.#Grief #Loss #MentalHealth #MensMentalHealth #Brotherhood #Vulnerability #WinningRegardless(01:30) - Rejecting Clichés: Why Rodo rejected the "better place" narrative at his brother's funeral.(03:00) - Core Grief Advice: You don't "get over it" with time; you learn how to live with the pain.(04:00) - The Equalizer Lesson: "If you don't say that person's name, then they die twice."(05:00) - Validation: A Pastor validates Rodo's raw human emotion about loss.(07:20) - Moving Ahead vs. Forward: The difference between forgetting and carrying on.(08:00) - Family Connection: How his brother's passing brought him closer to his nephew and nieces.(09:30) - Happiness in Grief: Why not all grief is bad; sometimes it's happiness at the memory of them.(11:00) - Vulnerability: It's okay for men and fathers to cry and be vulnerable.(12:30) - Conclusion: This is Rodo's "therapy session."Support the show
