Lunch 'n Learns with Matt Burton

Description:

Male Grief and Partner Grief. There are two expressions of grief that are rarely discussed. Grief experienced by Male trauma survivors struggle and Partner Grief. The societal myth that Men don't grieve is a lie that men and women alike have widely bought into. Many believe that if you're a real man, you're supposed to "suck it up and move on." Partner Grief is the loss of fidelity, safety, and financial security. The loss of emotional and spiritual stability. Join Matt as he shares about both and this unique process of recovery.

Trainer Information: Matt's life has been one spent in two different worlds. One as a business leader/media personality, the other as a trauma specialist and recovery coach. He's a former star athlete, radio personality, CEO/ founder/serial entrepreneur. But his other work was more important. Matt worked as a front-line worker at a group home for boys, spent 10 years serving Native American young people and their families on Indian reservations, and founded Helping Men Heal. He led the training of thousands of front-line workers and clinicians on male trauma, black male trauma, the impacts of male trauma on the family, male trauma and corrections, the impact of male trauma on women, and has helped men and their partners heal from the impacts of pornography addiction, infidelity/affairs, and intimacy anorexia®. Matt is the author of the groundbreaking book, The Unbound Man - Breaking the Shackles of Trauma & Abuse Experienced by Men.
