Kind words from readers, colleagues, and coaching clients.
Because shy bladder syndrome is such a private struggle, many coaching relationships remain confidential. I’m grateful to those who have given permission to share their experiences and to the respected professionals who endorsed Feeling the Flow.
“Feeling the Flow: Creating Freedom from Shy Bladder Syndrome” Book Endorsements
“A luminous addition to the literature on shy bladder syndrome . . . insightful and profoundly moving, offering not just practical guidance but genuine inspiration. This book stands as an outstanding testament to resilience and the power of personal triumph.”
~ Steven Soifer, Ph.D., M.S.W., Advisor and Consultant, International Paruresis Association, co-author of The Secret Social Phobia: Shy Bladder Syndrome (Paruresis), Treasurer, American Restroom Association, Adjunct Professor, Adelphi University School of Social Work
“Feeling the Flow is a timely, helpful and meaningful addition to the growing body of literature and media around paruresis. I highly recommend Hurd’s generous contribution to those with, or in relationship to, those with paruresis.”
~ Dan Rocker, LCSW, MA, President, International Paruresis Association
“Michael Hurd’s new book, Feeling the Flow, is really three books in one: it is a chronicle of his lonely struggle with paruresis, it is a narrative of his recent discovery of the International Paruresis Association and his remarkable progress toward recovery from the disorder, and it is an introspective guide through the life-lessons that he has learned along the way. I would encourage anyone suffering from paruresis to read this book; it may just change your life.”
~ David Kliss, International Paruresis Association (IPA) Board Member and Support Group Leader
“This is your last stop!
Choosing Michael as your coach would be the best investment you could make for your personal and professional wellbeing. Michael brings his vast personal/professional experience to the table. But most of all Michael is one the most compassionate and grounded human beings I have worked with. Anyone would be lucky to have him as his or her coach!”
Catherine Casey, B.S.W, M.S. Clinical Psychology, International Training Consultant
“I attended a workshop Mike offered on chronic pain this past winter. From his class, I acquired a new way of thinking about chronic pain and shifting my mindset around it. From his own personal experience and from working with clients, Mike is very knowledgable about the mind-body connection and how to guid you to shift your perspective around pain and dis-ease. Thank you, Mike!“
