Hey, deserving listeners, I want to talk to you about Salvador Mnuchin.

0:12.6

He died recently, and I've received a number of emails and other requests from other people

0:19.0

to talk about Salvador Mnuchin, not only because he's a major figure in psychotherapy, particularly family therapy, but he also died recently.

0:30.2

And it's, you know, sort of customary to do a episode on a major figure if there's some kind of event like that. So that's what I'm

0:39.3

going to do today. Salvador Aminutian was one of the major role models for me. He was just so
