This week, we’re joined by my good friend, psychiatrist, and author, Dr. Curt Thompson. About today’s conversation, Curt said, “Most of our well-intended attempts to counter the storms of our inner and outer lives involve identifying our problems and devising solutions for them. But in our hurry to diagnose and treat our diseases of the soul, we are often outrun by the very fear that is driving us to identify and resolve them.” This is perhaps one of the most emotional episodes I’ve ever recorded, but there’s a holistic approach to understanding shame, loss, trauma, and our souls’ deepest desire that I trust will bring a fresh perspective and hope to you today, so buckle up.
