In this episode, Anna and Bracey review In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts by Dr. Gabor Maté. They discuss Maté’s compassionate approach to understanding addiction, the stories that stuck with them, and how his insights connect to broader questions of trauma, healing, and human connection. Together, they reflect on what the book stirred up for them personally and what lessons listeners might take away about empathy, judgment, and the hidden struggles people carry.
