As Entrepreneurs, we sacrifice health for wealth or overlook trauma for the sake of “pushing forward.” High achievers are just as (if not more) susceptible to deteriorating mental and physical health. Genius Network® is about building Better Entrepreneurs and ultimately, Better Humans. Dr. Gabor Maté’s clinical experience has come to recognize the prevailing understanding of “normal” as false, neglecting the roles that trauma and stress, and the pressures of modern-day living, exert on our bodies and our minds. Maté will help you untangle the web of a toxic culture and guide you through a compassionate approach to health and healing.

I am heartbroken... 😔💔 After listening to this I realise how I failed the person I loved... By getting angry, trying to motivate to get out of difficult situations I only pushed back to relapse... I should have known better as it is not the first time I listen to Gabor and his empathetic and powerful speeches... 💔

[@beckystopford7352]

"you cannot punish the pain out of people"..... 💯💯💯💯💥👋👋👋

I'm addicted to Gabor Mate. And amazed how similar my story is to Joe Polish. Molested at the same age. For the same amount of time. Not telling anyone, the silence, became a weapon I seemed to direct inwards at myself. I abused all the same drugs. I'm just learning at age 38 how to recover my authentic self. I went to therapy for 6 yrs after college... not 1 counselor ever mentioned reconnecting with my authentic self... or why I had to do it... or who my "authentic" self even is. But listening to Gabor, it's all instinct it seems. I know who I was. I know who I'm suppose to be. I know what I need to do. Thank you so much for this video.

You must be willing to feel the pain of withdrawal if you wish to be free, truely free!!!

Gabor Mate is absolutely amazing, ive battled addiction for 15 plus years and I've loved hearing all of his videos he brilliant

[@RK_peace]

Even more concerning is the amount of people dying as a result of prescribed pharmaceuticals.

Their truths are the stories of so many of us out there 🙏. How many of us have ever heard two people being so very honest about their own lives ?

[@mogourmetzulu213]

So beautiful that he always honors the pain and trauma indigenous people & black people have gone through bc of the traumas the west has caused.
