In this thought-provoking episode, I sit down with Phyllis Leavitt, author of America in Therapy: A New Approach to Hope and Healing, to explore how trauma affects our nation and the path to collective healing. Drawing from her extensive experience as a psychotherapist, Phyllis shares how the same principles used in personal therapy—self-awareness, accountability, and emotional healing—can be applied to the divisions and trauma we face as a society.
We dive into the psychological roots of polarization, the impact of unhealed generational wounds, and how compassion and responsibility can pave the way toward unity and transformation. If you're seeking insight into how we can heal not only ourselves but also the world around us, this conversation is a must-listen.
Tune in for a powerful discussion on breaking destructive cycles, fostering deeper connections, and embracing a new vision for America's future.
