Author Anne Applebaum has chronicled the rise of European right wing politics for more than two decades. Weaving history with current events, Anne stresses how fragile our democracy really is and the importance of staying vigilant against the threat of authoritarianism. Also she makes clear in this interview that just because Trump is out of office, that doesn’t mean the United States is in the clear.  Anne's Website: https://AnneApplebaum.com Follow Anne on Twitter: https://twitter.com/anneapplebaum Twilight of Democracy: https://bookshop.org/books/twilight-of-democracy-the-seductive-lure-of-authoritarianism/9780385545808 Subscribe to The Marianne Williamson Podcast YouTube Channel:  https://bit.ly/3lEb6JT Apple Podcasts:  https://apple.co/36qnqH4 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2JV8pW4 Follow Marianne on Social Media Twitter: https://twitter.com/marwilliamson Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/williamsonmarianne Instagram: https://instagram.com/mariannewilliamson

A doctor of functional medicine, Dr. Mark Hyman makes clear that healthy food choices are the best way to prevent and in many cases heal disease. But how can we make the best food choices when corporate forces too often conspire against our ability to do so? Hyman’s work dives into this topic head-on.

I sat down with Mark this week to discuss the history of our food system and how current corruption is accelerating the threats of food-related chronic disease, climate change, poverty, educational achievement gaps and more. Fortunately, he knows how to fix it! With his books and non-profit work, Dr. Mark Hyman is leading a food revolution.

With its current re-release in China, the film AVATAR becomes the highest grossing film of all time. That’s how much the people of the world are enchanted by the forests of Pandora, the wisdom of the Na’vi, and the drama of the Avatar.

All of those emerge from the mind of writer-director James Cameron, known not only for his extraordinary record as a filmmaker (Titanic, the Terminator films, etc.) but also as a deep sea explorer.

I was excited to have a chance to sit down for a deep dive conversation with Jim Cameron, covering everything from the mysteries of Avatar to the current state of American capitalism. As he puts it, humanity is on a precipice between being “takers” and being “caretakers.” Which we choose will make all the difference.

Cameron is one of the geniuses of our time, and it was an honor to get to know him.

Dr. Gabor Maté’s approach to working with patients suffering from addiction, stress and trauma has earned him worldwide praise. Maté, author of “In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts,” stresses that trauma is not what happened to you, but what happens inside you and when this is acknowledged the healing process can begin.

In this interview, Gabor and I discuss the larger societal issues that are causing so many stressors, generational trauma, why we develop addictions and the importance of self-compassion.
