World-renowned social scientist, best-selling author of "Forgive for Good," and director of the Stanford Forgiveness Project, Dr. Fred Luskin recognizes why forgiveness is so "unpopular." It takes hard work, intentional practice, and deep vulnerability.
Grudge-holding may feel more justified, but it only makes us sick. In his seminal "Forgive for Good" workshop and class series, which he has presented around the world, Dr. Luskin takes people through his forgiveness training methodology that’s been validated through six successful research studies conducted through the Stanford Forgiveness Projects. Workshop participants learn to move from hurt to hope as they learn how to release grudges and free themselves from grievance.
Through his research at Stanford University, over the past 25 years, Dr. Luskin has confirmed that forgiveness has been shown to reduce anger, hurt, depression and stress and lead to greater feelings of optimism, hope, compassion and self confidence.
Dr. Luskin holds a Ph.D. in Counseling and Health Psychology from Stanford University.
He continues to serve as Director of the Stanford Forgiveness Projects, an ongoing series of workshops and research projects that investigate the effectiveness of his forgiveness methods on a variety of populations. The forgiveness project has successfully explored forgiveness therapy with people who suffered from the violence in Northern Ireland, Sierra Leone as well as the attacks on the World Trade Center on 9/11.
In addition his work has been successfully applied and researched in corporate, medical, legal and religious settings. He currently serves as a Senior Consultant in Health Promotion at Stanford University and is a Professor at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology.

Since he was a boy, Gregg Levoy has always been fueled by a lifelong quest for the questions. Little wonder he grew up to become a brilliant journalist, international speaker, and bestselling author of Callings: Finding and Following an Authentic Life and Vital Signs: The Nature and Nurture of Passion, among many other publications.
He just exudes curiosity, insight and wonder, and shares the gifts of his incredible enthusiasm for life, for curiosity itself and for discovering and living the practices that cultivate aliveness right now.
Honestly, I feel like I could ask him anything and he'd give it his full attention and draw deep from his well of intuition and awe, and take a shot at it. He is both wise and wide-eyed, both a giver and a humble receiver. Our conversation is full of soul and surprise - and little suspense. I felt like we were on a kind of an archeological dig. We riff on how to stay in conversation with ourselves during chaos, and why the power of rituals can mark our turning points in profound ways.
And I just love how he spontaneously offers up real-time guidance on some really interesting practices that help us get to the truth of the stories we tell ourselves - to, as he puts it, "make a little edgewise room for doubt just enough that the story begins to change and crumble.”
We talk about the power of presence, the hidden energy of stuckness, and his "deep trust in the relationship between setbacks and breakthroughs" as he navigates the now.

"We heal the past by embodying the present. Now, now, now, now, now. That's all we have. When we change the present, history changes." ~ Bethany Saltman
Bethany Saltman is a phenomenon. She's also the author of a brilliant and poignant book called Strange Situation: A Mother's Journey into the Science of Attachment (Ballantine Books, 2020). This book absolutely floored me.
“A fascinating mix of memoir and the history of a major revolution in the scientific theory of the relationships we form in our first year of life…” —BOOKLIST (Starred Review)
It was her pursuit of the answer to a daunting question - what kind of mother am I? - that captivated me. This question led her to search for, find, and follow clues that offered no map, no timeline, and no guarantees...and also eventually led to unforeseen discoveries about herself, her family, the science of attachment, the guiding figures she would meet along the way, and of course the scientist she would only know through archives, records, recordings, and notes - Mary Ainsworth, the attachment researcher who captured Bethany’s imagination and heart.
From her Zazen meditation years seated on her cushion “being with what is” to the years of searching to discover what is, what was, and what might be, Bethany teaches us what it means to see ourselves and our children more clearly. We talk about the practice of awareness, the power of sensitivity, the reality of presence, the process of seeing and trusting in ourselves, self-care as child-care, and the predictive power of delight. This conversation is just a wonder.

A profound, illuminating, and unvarnished conversation with neuroscientist Mike Niconchuk about polarization and the biology of belonging; the power of science, storytelling, and the narrative of trauma; the constant balance between urgency and safety; and what's possible when we center collective care, and take a "do no harm" oath with ourselves as "wounded healers" trying to reduce suffering in the world.
Mike demythologizes the concept of ‘bouncing back,’ calls "science-activists" into action, and shares why he believes "nothing is more relevant than how the body responds to trauma."
Mike Niconchuk is the Program Director for Beyond Conflict’s work on Trauma and Violent Conflict. Beyond Conflict combines nearly 30 years of experience in conflict prevention, resolution, and reconciliation with the latest cognitive and behavioral science. Mike leads the strategy and execution of initiatives focused on trauma and violence prevention in the U.S., Germany, Jordan, and Lebanon. These initiatives focus on the link between neuroscience and participation in group violence and the mind-body effects of conflict, forced displacement, and violence on youth and adults.
He’s the author of the Field Guide for Barefoot Psychology, a unique psycho-educational and trauma recovery program for communities affected by trauma and adversity. The Field Guide is grounded in the belief that “science is a right and self-awareness is an asset”. First piloted in the Za’atri Refugee camp in Jordan with 160 participants, it now exists in both print and mobile app formats. In one of the largest neurophysiology studies ever conducted in a post-conflict setting, the Field Guide was determined to be effective in reducing mental health stigma, PTSD symptoms, and emotion regulation, even 3 months later.

This conversation is pure BOLTE-energy. Enthusiastic. Enlightening. Irreverent. Profound. Deeply human. And, at times, hilarious. (Nothing quite prepared me for her answer to my last question!) She is equal parts gritty, gutsy, and grateful to be alive. We talk about the morning, 13 years ago, when a massive stroke struck her left brain. We talk about her eight-year recovery and her life's discovery. We dive into her new book "Whole Brain Living", her acronym BRAIN, and how to "huddle" with our brain distinctly designed four modules in order to create opportunity for creating change, agency, and wellbeing.
This conversation is will make you think again about your own brain and its (your) functional relationship with the past, present, and future. Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor joins me from her boat...named "Brain Waves."
Dr. Taylor is a Harvard-trained and published neuroanatomist whose research specialized in understanding how our brain creates our perception of reality. She was interested in this subject because she has a brother who is diagnosed with the brain disorder schizophrenia. She is the author of the New York Times bestselling memoir My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist’s Personal Journey (Viking Penguin, 2008). Her new book is Whole Brain Living: The Anatomy of Choice and the Four Characters That Drive Our Life (Hay House, 2021).
Her Foundation Jill Bolte Taylor BRAINS is dedicated to providing educational services and promoting programs related to the advancement of brain awareness, appreciation, exploration, education, injury prevention, neurological recovery, and the power of movement for mental and physical health. She is the National Spokesperson for the Harvard Brain Tissue Resource Center (Harvard Brain Bank), and educates the public about the shortage of brain tissue donated for research into the severe mental illnesses.
