In our politically diverse world, it can be challenging to remain grounded amidst the influx of negativity, injustice, and discord that floods our newsfeeds. If we're not careful, we can be easily lured into the perceived safety of labeling, judging, and even demonizing those that do not align with our set of political beliefs. This week’s guest, journalist and best-selling author, Kirsten Powers is all too familiar with the harm this divide has on our individual health and our collective humanity. 
 
Throughout the episode, Kirsten invites us into a frank conversation about how our past experiences and trauma often lead us to binary thinking and reminds us that it is possible to remain centered even amidst politically divisive seasons—leading to more empathy, grace, and understanding for self and others.
