This week we sit down with Allie Cashel. Author of Suffering The Silence, Allie discusses her battle with Lyme disease and how to find your place in the world when confronted with a system that wants to shut you down and how to find common ground through compassionate conversation.


Show Notes:


Big issues in 2020 - The unknown requires us to be fluid. 


The news cycle - Are human beings prepared to integrate the quantity of news and information available today? 


Feelings: Process, sort and integrate information. Taking time, finding space to accept and feel our human feelings. 


Persistent change and how we fit in with the changing reality around us. Change can be exciting if one is grounded. Change as a stepping stone towards good. 


Lyme Disease / Suffering the Silence / Senior Thesis Ultimately, the stories & conversations found during her senior thesis are the heart & backbone of the book. 


Mental and physical health are so inextricably connected. 


Difficult Conversations - Sharing perspectives, exploring differences. Good intentions are not enough? Compassionate Communication. 


Let’s find common ground / We are so much more alike than different. 


There are Heroes among us: Allie, who’s your hero? People who are telling their stories with bravery and authenticity.
