The Pat Poems Episode 5: Healing ourselves & Communities


Listen Later

Shifting the story we tell ourselves can lead to positive action. In this episode we explore the alchemy of pain and struggle into healing and service by diving into the role anger plays in advocacy and how service to others compounds our own healing. Other topics include: open-mindedness, social justice, transformation, substance use, and recovery.

We end the episode with a call to action, asking how can you use your healing as a guide and map for taking action to heal your families, communities, and the earth itself? What little things can you do to be a catalyst for change?
