On this inspiring episode of Authority On Demand Podcast (formerly Authors On Mission Podcast), host Danielle Hutchinson sits down with Phyllis Leavitt to discuss her book America in Therapy. Phyllis explores how the United States functions like a family system—sometimes healthy, sometimes dysfunctional—and how therapeutic principles can help address national crises and collective trauma.

She shares her personal journey from childhood trauma to becoming a therapist, the writing process behind her book, and why compassion, deep listening, and inclusion are essential for building a healthier society.

✨ Tips shared in the episode:

• Recognize how unresolved trauma impacts both individuals and communities
• Apply family therapy principles—listening, inclusion, and peaceful conflict resolution—to national issues
• Reconnect with your “why” to overcome doubt in creative projects
• Create environments where everyone feels valued and supported

This wonderful conversation is a must‑listen for anyone interested in psychology, healing, and building a more compassionate America.
