J.S. Park: Politics & Grief

Show Notes

What if the political unrest we see today is deeply connected to how we process grief? In this episode, hospital chaplain and author J.S. Park joins us to explore the profound and often overlooked intersection of grief and politics. He draws on his experience in trauma care to challenge the hustle culture that pushes us to move on quickly and urges us to create space for lament in our communities.

In this episode, Michael and J.S. Park discuss:

• The ancient roots of grief suppression and its impact on modern society
• How grief can serve as a guide and anchor in political movements
• Practical ways to cultivate sacred spaces for grief amidst the demands of daily life
