At 30, Byron Katie spent a decade trapped in depression and self-hatred.

Then one morning, she woke up with a single realization… and everything changed.

In this episode, author and speaker Byron Katie joins us for a powerful conversation on how questioning your thoughts can transform suffering.

She shares her process called The Work and explores how ego, identity, love, trauma, and forgiveness all relate to self-inquiry.

Aaron and Katie discuss real-world examples (from relationships to world conflict) to illustrate how understanding our beliefs can change everything.

OUR GUEST

In 1986, at the bottom of a ten-year spiral into depression and self-loathing, Byron Katie woke up one morning in a state of joy. She realized that when she believed her stressful thoughts, she suffered, but that when she questioned them, she didn’t suffer, and that this is true for every human being. Her simple yet powerful process of self-inquiry, which she calls The Work, consists of four questions and the turnaround, which is a way of experiencing the opposite of what you believe.

Byron Katie has been bringing The Work to millions of people for more than thirty years. Please join her at https://athomewithbk.com/ for At Home with BK on Zoom every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday from 9–10 a.m. Pacific Time.

Her books include the bestselling Loving What Is now in a revised edition, I Need Your Love—Is That True?, A Thousand Names for Joy, and A Mind at Home with Itself. For more information, visit https://thework.com/.
