    Healing the Country

    With a new administration coming in, there has been plenty of calls for unity and healing. Healing was a tall task at the end of 2020, but the beginning of 2021 and the Capitol Riots made the task that much harder.

The event has left the nation shaken and battered, but fewer people are willing to reach out the opposition in hopes of healing. Get insight on ways to heal from special guest meglitz_ and what that might mean for you and those around you. Due to the passion expressed for this topic, listener discretion is advised. We drop some f_bombs.
