About this episode

What if healing from trauma required more than just personal work? In this profound chat, Prentis Hemphill, author of What It Takes to Heal: How Transforming Ourselves Can Change the World, dives deep on the somatic practices key to both individual and collective healing.


They share eye-opening insights on envisioning new possibilities beyond society's limiting scripts, remapping relationships through authenticity and hard-earned trust, and expanding our "we" through truly relating - not just racking up social media followers. Hemphill's work points us toward transforming the very systems and conditions that wounded us in the first place through an ethos of radical love.
