I also remember reading about where he confesses to being repelled by an overweight female client and how he explored his revulsion. From what I remember, he always treated this client with respect despite his feelings.
I respect his honesty in his writings and how he keeps any negativity towards his clients “under control” - to use the lingo some in this forest use. Ugh...
I haven’t heard his son on a podcast.
Thanks for sharing
