Dr. Seku Gathers: Cutting Through the Bullshit

Good People, This week I wanted to share a conversation I had on Dr. Wayne Pernell’s show One Sharp Sword. On this episode, I take you through my own journey – some of which may sound familiar if you’ve been listening in for a while. I talk about what my childhood was like and about some of the physical abuse I went through, and how that led me to attract abusive relationships as an adult. I tell the story of my tipping point, which was when I contracted hepatitis and needed to commit to taking care of myself to live. As we go on, I talk about my work, how I’m transitioning out of medicine, and why I want to do more film and creative work. Lastly, however, Dr. Wayne Pernell and I discuss the power of anger and why it’s not always a bad thing. The truth is, when anger is properly utilized, it can be a great tool. So sit back, relax, and take a listen. I’ll see you in the next one. Some Questions I’m Asked: What turned your life around?
