Listen Later

Marianne Williamson joins me on The Coachable Podcast this week to talk about Healing the Soul of America. In this episode, we discuss healing ourselves and the world, how to impact and change society, and what we can do to turn off fear and turn on love. Get ready to take some notes and be inspired.

Heal Through Love [4:33]

  • “We’re not going to change as a society, unless we change as individuals.”
  • “Our purpose, why we’re here, is to love one another.”
  • “The world is in need of healing”
  • It’s Time To Get Involved [10:00]

    • “As a citizen, if you want to make a change, you can vote! Get involved.”
    • “There’s a temptation to dissociate when it’s ‘not our fault’ but that’s the time to work harder”
    • Build The Future Together[13:17]

      • “Wake up. Stand up. Show up. There is nothing we can’t do.”

      Healing Takes Your Brain and Your Spirit[18:49]

      • “Deep healing can’t be done on just an intellectual basis.”
      • “The hallmark of trauma is often choicelessness. Reclaiming our sovereignty is recognizing we have a choice in how to address it.”
      • Grief is Mutual[20:30]

        • “A miracle can be a shift in perception- how do we move forward during or after crisis?”
        • “There are seasons of life and one of them is grief. Grief is functional, and it’s how the mind, heart, and spirit experience it and help us get through it.”
        • “Suffering gives you X-ray vision into the suffering of others.”
        • Suffering Doesn’t Happen Alone [27:24]

          • “It is statistically possible that others around you have suffered just as much.”
          • “Our suffering takes individual form, but most of us are suffering.”
          • Society Needs Healing [31:51]

            • “So much of the despair we feel is based on the anxiety over economic tension.”
            • “Policy after policy makes it too hard for the average person: they fear of having a child because of environmental factors, they can’t be in the job they want to be in because of the lack of benefits.”
            • Turn Off Fear and Turn On Love [35:50]

              • “There is so much fear to unlearn and release.”
              • “Fear is to love as darkness is to light. Don’t analyze the dark, turn on the light. Don’t analyze the fear, turn on the love.”
              • Learn Through Connection [37:45]

                • “We must learn to forgive and we must learn to love each other”
                • “Every relationship, every connection is a lesson.”
                • Wisdom Is Built Through Application [43:02]

                  • “Knowledge isn’t power-we have to learn to apply it.”
                  • “Behave in a way that contributes to the love that will heal the world.”
                  • Transform The World; Transform Each Other [49:00]

                    • “This isn't an age of data collection, it’s an age of applicat
