Seeking the Happy Story (part 2) – Reality Ain’t What You Believe

June 7, 2013

“If you really grasp the idea that this is not suddenly going to turn around, in six months or a year, you begin to look at your life very differently,” says Dr. Kathy McMahon, clinical psychologist and self-named “Peak Shrink.” Despite government silence, she declares, the US is in a Great Depression. Collapse is happening now, not in the future. She empowers people to face reality. When they do, she finds they are freed to take appropriate action for themselves, their loved ones, and their communities. And therein lies her hope for the uncertainties looming ahead. Episode 234.
