When Democracy Frays, What Happens to the Human Spirit?

On Saturday, November 15 (10am–4pm PT / 1pm – 7pm ET — in person or via zoom) join me, Ipek S. Burnett, Ph.D., Senator Bill Bradley, Betty Sue Flowers, Thomas Singer, Andrew Samuels and other fine speakers for a day-long conference on to explore the psychological and cultural impacts of the second Trump Administration and the erosion of American democracy.

Together we’ll ask:


– How does the dismantling of democratic structures affect our trust and sense of belonging?


– How do societal breakdowns mirror the fractures within our inner worlds?


– How do we sustain ourselves — personally and collectively — to persist in defending what we hold dear?
