In this episode of Counsel Culture, Eric Brooker sits down for a deeply human conversation about hardship, presence, and what it really means to show up for others.
The discussion moves from personal crisis to professional leadership, exploring how adversity reshapes identity, relationships, and perspective. Together, they examine why small moments matter more than we think, how teams and families grow stronger through shared struggle, and what happens when leaders choose clarity, consistency, and care over avoidance.
This is a conversation about resilience without bravado, leadership without performance, and the quiet power of being present—at work, at home, and in the moments that matter most.
This episode is dedicated to Jodi's journey. This conversation is what we make it. This, is Counsel Culture.
