Healing in a Broken World. A Live Conversation with Dr. Gabor Maté & Chief Rueben George
What does it mean to heal when the systems around us are sick? When the water is poisoned, the land is stolen, and we're told to fix ourselves individually while the world burns?
Join Chief Rueben George—Tsleil-Waututh Nation leader, land and water defender—and Dr. Gabor Maté—physician, trauma expert, and truth-teller—for an urgent conversation about collective healing, intergenerational trauma, and what it takes to stay human in a world designed to break us.
This isn't therapy talk. This is about the trauma of colonization, capitalism, and disconnection from land, spirit, and each other. It's about why we can't heal in isolation from the systems that harm us, and why personal healing and collective liberation are inseparable.
What you'll experience
- How colonization lives in our bodies and relationships
- The false promise of "healing" without justice
- What Indigenous wisdom teaches us about true wellness
- Addiction, attachment, and belonging in a disconnected world
- How defending the land is defending our humanity
