Summary
Today we are revisiting one of my favorite podcast episodes that I’ve ever recorded, with the magnificent Gabor Maté. We talk about defining trauma, solving our internal psychological wounds, exploring relationships, and what it truly means to be vulnerable - amongst many other really important topics.
Dr. Maté is one of my favorite people on the planet, and one of the world’s leading psychologists - particularly in the realm of addiction. He’s the author of ‘When The Body Says No: Exploring the Stress-Disease Connection’ and his most recent book, ‘The Myth of Normal’. Gabor is such an exemplary human being in every way possible, so I hope you get a lot from this episode.
