Description: Marianne Williamson joins me on The Coachable Podcast this week to talk about Healing the Soul of America. In this episode, we discuss healing ourselves and the world, how to impact and change society, and what we can do to turn off fear and turn on love. Get ready to take some notes and be inspired. Heal Through Love [4:33] “We’re not going to change as a society, unless we change as individuals.” “Our purpose, why we’re here, is to love one another.” “The world is in need of healing” It’s Time To Get Involved [10:00] “As a citizen, if you want to make a change, you can vote! Get involved.” “There’s a temptation to dissociate when it’s ‘not our fault’ but that’s the time to work harder” Build The Future Together[13:17] “Wake up. Stand up. Show up. There is nothing we can’t do.” Healing Takes Your Brain and Your Spirit[18:49] “Deep healing can’t be done on just an intellectual basis.” “The hallmark of trauma is often choicelessness. Reclaiming our sovereignty is recognizing we have a choice in how to address it.” Grief is Mutual[20:30] “A miracle can be a shift in perception- how do we move forward during or after crisis?” “There are seasons of life and one of them is grief.

Don’t analyze the dark, turn on the light. Don’t analyze the fear, turn on the love.” Learn Through Connection [37:45] “We must learn to forgive and we must learn to love each other” “Every relationship, every connection is a lesson.” Wisdom Is Built Through Application [43:02] “Knowledge isn’t power-we have to learn to apply it.” “Behave in a way that contributes to the love that will heal the world.” Transform The World; Transform Each Other [49:00] “This isn't an age of data collection, it’s an age of applicat Connect with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachablepodcast/ Connect with Tori on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachtorigordon/ Guess what?!
