About this episode

Myrna Lewis discusses her journey in psychology and the transformative power of conflict, loss, and death.

Myrna Lewis is a clinical psychologist and an inspiration. Fresh off of her experience at Africa Burn, we explored her fascinating early life story, how that galvanised her passion for psychology, mental health literacy, collective change and using conflict as a tool for reconnection. This multifaceted conversation traverses everything from psychedelics to leveraging loss and death for aliveness, the paradoxes that are implicit in all of life and how we are beginning to think about mental health and it's treatment differently.
