Today’s episode is a big one. On the first day of spiny lobster season, we announce something deeply personal: Chris and I sold the fishing business. Chris has been fishing since he was 15—lobster, salmon, sea cucumber, Bristol Bay—you name it. Over 15 seasons, I’ve been alongside him, which eventually inspired the creation of the Partners of Commercial Fishermen. Selling the Joseph Warren marks the end of a chapter and the start of something new. In this episode, I share: The emotional and logistical process of selling the boat. How therapy supported us through the transition. The power of the POCF community (we literally helped make the sale happen!). Why “salt in our blood” means this community is forever part of us. Whether you’re navigating a career shift, considering therapy, or just curious about what happens when a fisherman retires or sells their boat, this episode is for you.
