Episode Summary
In part two of this episode with Alan Shebarro, we talk about topics such as the question of whether or not to seek a therapist who’s qualified in treating veterans, the healing that comes from saying nothing at all with people who get it, the paradox of how curious we are for the welfare of others, but not ourselves, and how the mask we wear can suffocate us.
