It will get you thinking

This is a talk which will get you thinking about everything in your life and how we as a society need to change.

Edit out the music, please!

Excellent podcast. I am a fan of consciousness literature and didn't know of Dr Will Siu so this was a good introduction to him, specifically. I was pleasantly surprised to hear so much from Dr Gabor Mate as well whom I am very familiar with and is always great. Content here is top notch.

Unfortunately, the background music was highly distracting and totally unnecessary. Not sure why it was added throughout the entire podcast. Music for the intro and outro, sure, that's fine, but competing with the guests and narrator the entire time made no sense.

Excellent content!

What a great find! Thanks for sharing your personal story and dedication to healing yourself and others.

The most comfortable podcast ever!!

Wow! Just wow! I struggle A LOT with migraines and headaches so I seldom listen to podcasts/audiobooks, they are triggering and tiering for my head. But this one, mmm. Such a comfortable listen! The voice of Will Siu is so comforting.
And then to the content 😆
That was great too! Loved the switching dialogue between the three men and the woman.
A lot of the information resonated with me. I liked this a lot.

Insightful

Forgiving and insightful - will definitely be listening a second time to take notes on the subject.

Toward Healing

Hearing Siu’s healing journey is genuinely moving and inspires me to open to a new level of understanding. My only criticism is that I wish it was longer…

Trauma healing truth

You are so correct regarding the empathic witness, which I call the sacred witness, and that key aspect in the healing process with trauma

Healing one at a time

I really liked the concepts and ideas. The delivery was dry and I had to speed up to 1.2x and it was still hard to stay engaged in some areas. I would have liked more personality and character to shine through.

Healing In A Sick Society

Very rare that you hear psychiatrist and physicians of Dr. Will Siu and Dr. Gabor Maté’s caliber share deeply personal history regarding their own lives. As someone who is healing from over a decade of childhood sexual/violent abuse, their own personal traumatic experiences resonate very much with my own in how the trauma manifested. Their candid openness helps to inspire so many others in their healing journeys, including my own. I would love to hear Dr. Will Siu host a series on this topic of “Healing In A Sick Society”. These kinds of conversations are continuously needed. Thank you for this episode.🙏🏾
