At a time of crisis at home and abroad, we find ourselves in a state of unprecedented disharmony. "But that doesn't mean we're going to act," says Dr. Shariff Abdullah, with a reminder that "the call to action may make you very uncomfortable."
Shariff has devoted much of his life to the work of inclusivity and societal transformation. His award-winning book, The Power of One: Authentic Leadership in Turbulent Times, was published in 1991, yet its powerful principles are as relevant today as ever.
In this episode, Shariff and neurobiology expert Rajkumari Neogy discuss the weight of despair that so many of us feel. They explore where this stems from, how to overcome our own resistance, and what we can do to get our hearts engaged in the moment.
