Welcome to Episode 11 of the Next Level Voices Series on Kultivation w/ Kevie!
In this deeply healing conversation, I sit down with author and psychotherapist Phyllis Leavitt to discuss her inspiring journey from childhood trauma to spiritual awakening, and how her latest book, America in Therapy: A New Approach to Hope and Healing for a Nation in Crisis, uses the lens of family therapy to help us understand the roots of collective pain, violence, and disconnection.
Together, we explore how personal healing contributes to social transformation, how trauma shapes the human spirit, and why love and non-violence must guide our next chapter as individuals and as a country. Phyllis also shares how journaling, spiritual connection, and creative expression helped her heal, and offers heartfelt advice to anyone seeking recovery, peace, and purpose.
This episode is a powerful reminder that individual healing and collective healing are deeply connected, and that our stories, when shared with courage and compassion, can become catalysts for change.
