I connected with Caroline about her book "Validation" and discovered how she turned decades of mental health struggles, including breast cancer and multiple sclerosis, into profound tools for healing others. Her story reveals why traditional therapy failed her but electric shock therapy provided the breakthrough she needed. The most powerful moment came when she shared how her darkest experiences became the key to validating suicidal patients in ways no one else could. This conversation will transform how you view suffering and teach you why validation, not just love, creates real connection in relationships.</p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/3ZkCYbt" target="_blank">Buy Dr. Fleck’s book <i>Validation: How the Skill Set That Revolutionized Psychology Will Transform Your Relationships, Increase Your Influence, and Change Your Life</i></a></p><p>In this episode you will learn:</p><ul><li>How to transform your deepest suffering into your greatest superpower for helping others</li><li>How electric shock therapy saved Dr. Fleck when traditional methods failed</li><li>The difference between validation and love in relationships and why both are essential</li><li>Why validation is the universal antidote to the world's greatest pain - invalidation</li><li>How to support someone who is suffering without enabling destructive behaviors</li></ul><p>For more information go to <a href="https://www.lewishowes.com/1791" target="_blank">https://www.lewishowes.com/1791</a></p><p>For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960</p><p>More SOG episodes we think you’ll love:</p><p>Dr. Caroline Fleck – <a href="http://greatness.lnk.to/1774SC" target="_blank">greatness.lnk.to/1774SC</a></p><p>Muniba Mazari – <a href="http://greatness.lnk.to/1684SC" target="_blank">greatness.lnk.to/1684SC</a></p><p>Liz Gilbert – <a href="http://greatness.lnk.to/1681SC" target="_blank">greatness.lnk.to/1681SC</a></p>
