Chasing Peace

Today’s conversation with former Clinton/Gore speechwriter Tom Rosshirt left me speechless. In his book Chasing Peace, Tom reveals how crippling anxiety and 'complicated grief' nearly destroyed him—until neuroplasticity and spirituality rewired his brain. We explore fear as the root of physical illness, dissolving self-image traps, and why embracing ALL feelings is the essence of true peace. If you’ve ever felt stuck in perfectionism, avoidance, or unexplained symptoms, this episode is your roadmap to freedom. Plus: My course for therapists on spiritually informed therapy opens soon! Join us as we bridge science and soul.
