A FINAL TRIBUTE TO FRIEND AND GUEST GORDON CORSETTI
In show #33 Gordy and Tinamarie spoke with Gordon Corsetti, Founder of the Speaker Series and Blog, Mental Agility (mentallyagile.com), Gordon Corsetti was brutally honest about his lifelong struggle with depression and how struggling with mental illness put him in debt to the tune of $112,000. To listen to him speak of his life changing epiphany, career reboot and ability to pay off all his debts would leave you thinking he had finally left his past in the rearview mirror. Sadly, Gordon Corsetti lost his battle with depression around Thanksgiving, 2022. This show is a tribute to Gordon Corsetti, along with a conversation with mental health experts from Mira Vista Behavioral Health of Holyoke Mass. Gordon Corsetti was a courageous person who shared his struggles in hopes of helping others. If you or anyone you know is contemplating suicide, the new National suicide and crisis hotline is 988.
