Gabor Maté, MD

Everyone is talking about Gabor’s new book The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness and Healing in a Toxic Culture. This year for our 2023 Summit, Gabor is joining us again for a new interview focused on embodied healing.

He is asking us to see the truth of our toxic culture without falling into despair. To acknowledge the struggle at the same time as we cultivate agency through personal healing and collective action. 

What kind of world do we want to live in? That’s the question we’ll explore in our talk.

Watch these clips from our 2023 interview below.

Through Compassionate Inquiry, the client can recognize the unconscious dynamics that run their lives and how to liberate themselves from them. The purpose of Compassionate Inquiry is to drill down to the core stories people tell themselves – to get them to see what story they are telling themselves unconsciously; what those beliefs are, where they came from; and guide them to the possibility of letting go of those stories, or letting go of the hold those stories have on them …”

Books by Dr Maté: Realm of the Hungry Ghost; Hold On To Your Kids; Scattered Minds; and When the Body Says No. His latest book is The Myth of Normal, to be released in 2022.
