You Start Today With Dr. Lee Warren | Weekly Prescriptions To Become Healthier, Feel Better, And Be Happier.

Our special guest for this episode is Dr. Curt Thompson, an acclaimed psychiatrist and author of one of my favorite books, The Deepest Place: Suffering and the Formation of Hope. Join me for a profound discussion about trauma, suffering, and the healing journey. You'll learn from Curt that suffering is shaped not just by traumatic events but by individual responses and narratives. The conversation explores the need for community and support, highlighting that healing involves integrating past experiences into a hopeful narrative rather than forgetting them. Dr. Thompson discusses the neuroscience of trauma and therapeutic practices like EMDR that aid in emotional processing. The episode will encourage you to confront your pain and seek connection, showcasing that hope can arise from suffering and that your future is not solely defined by it.
