Speaker: Terry Harrigan
Introduce yourself! Where are you from? Profession? What did life look like before END? What made you decide to work with us?
Terry Harrigan: Hi, my name is Terry Harrigan. I'm from New Jersey and it's currently pouring out. It's been pouring for three days straight. Um, I am, uh, again, I'm from New Jersey. I'm self employed. I have been, uh, self-employed for a number of years now and I've been very successful with my professional life, but not necessarily with dating. So, I mean, I was dating on and off for a number of years but no, no real success. And I finally decided to move forward because I realize I'm getting older and this is it. I mean, if, if I'm not gonna do it now it's never gonna happen. So that's why.
What are the three biggest benefits from working in END?
Terry Harrigan: So the program has been extremely useful for me for a few different reasons. I mean, the women that I have come into contact with and have connected with watching what they go through and just connecting on a regular basis has made me feel supported and it's so useful. Um, the, the program is giving me clarity to what I should be doing in my life. What I shouldn't be doing just I had a list a mile long before of, of what I wanted as somebody and it was so confusing. So I've gotten a lot more clarity and the other thing is going back through my past, through all the relationships is fascinating, scary, but fascinating. Absolutely useful. And I'm doing it again. I'm going back through it again to make sure that I haven't missed anything.
What was your biggest breakthrough while in the program?
Terry Harrigan: For me, the biggest breakthrough. Um, the biggest, aha moment was really looking at one relationship next to the other, next to the other and seeing my patterns, scary but fascinating. Um, I, I, there's so many things I don't think I realized that, um, I came, my parents were avoided and I actually carried over some of those traits for a while. I, I don't think I'm quite that now by any means. Hope not. Um, but such so useful to be able to perceive it and go through it and just figure it out and work with it and use it in my life every day.
What would you tell others who are thinking about joining the program?
Terry Harrigan: I would say if you're thinking about joining, if you wanna make a change in your life, a real change, do it, go ahead and do it and sign up because this will force you to focus on what you haven't been focusing on before this part of your life. That's so very, very important and I'm gonna miss everybody.
Is there anything else you'd like to add about your experience in END?
Terry Harrigan: I also just wanted to say to realize about your experience when you go through the program that there's no perfection, it's gonna go up and down, up and down. And as long as you're making strides forward, that's what's important and you will.
