An Indomitable Healing Spirit

For the past two years, James O'Dea has synthesized his remarkable life experience into what he calls "social healing". A former Director of Amnesty International's Washington, DC office and President of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, O'Dea's journey has taken him through both the depths of human suffering -- and it's transcendence.

This enriching conversation with O'Dea explores the roots of this tangled question and surfaces poignant reflections on the roles of forgiveness and service in healing the wounds of our world.
