#216 The Myth of Normal (with Dr. Gabor Maté)

This week one of our favourite guests, Dr. Gabor Maté, joins us again. Gabor is a physician who specializes in addiction, stress, trauma, and childhood development. Gabor’s new book, The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness and Healing in a Toxic Culture releases in 2022. In this episode we discuss healthy and unhealthy attachments; tech addiction and its hold over our consciousness and behaviour; the importance of becoming disillusioned; and how crises can become a moment of opportunity.
