Warning – We discuss some delicate topics surrounding mental health, suicide, sexual abuse, and drug taking. There is also a little bit of bad language. 



Today I do the follow-up episode with the purveyor of truth Kiran Shokar Essene! Please check out the earlier episode. Today we look at addiction and trauma in more detail, before discussing how we can develop and find true meaning in the world. We then conclude by looking at Kiran’s approach to healing and therapy and have a general discussion about counselling. Kiran is a truly inspirational figure!
