On this episode of We Can't Do It Alone, Nōn sits down with Katya Lidsky, author of Be Your Dog's Best Friend, to explore the entanglement of grief and anger, how intent and impact play a crucial in how we help, giving kids space to be mad at their parents, eating disorder recovery and the disconnected body, practicing the art of detachment by writing stuff down and throwing it away, and the ceaseless tension between the constricting mind and the expanding heart.
