    Sometimes Healing Requires Rest, Not Repair - Season 4 Intro

    The Pursuit of Self-Actualization is officially back for season 4! This is the first episode of 2023 after a long and much needed hiatus. In this episode we breakdown the flawed logic behind the concept that "it is lonely at the top". We dive into the theme for this season, which is healing. This includes personal healing as well as healing of relationships and entire communities. The truth is that sometimes healing requires rest, not repair. We breakdown what that means and provide actionable insights that you can implement today to better understand when you need to rest versus when you need to actively repair something that feels broken. There are also some exciting announcements regarding the future development of the podcast and ways to get free access to resources that will eventually cost money. We look forward to healing together from this episode forward in 2023.
