Gary Malkin, Hope Fitzgerald, Tezikiah Gabriel: Finding Peace -- We Rise As One – Part 1

With so many things that divide us, what can possibly connect us? It seems our nation, and our world, are in daily conflict. How can we begin to have unity in such a fractured place? Our guests today have spent decades working toward the idea of hope, peace, and connection. Gary Malkin is a multiple Emmy award-winning composer, resonance strategist, and music and wellness activist; Hope Fitzgerald is a spiritual teacher, intuitive dowser, and healer; and Tezikiah Gabriel is the Executive Director of Pathways To Peace, a UN Peace Messenger Organization, in consultation with ECOSOC and DGC.

Peace in the world cannot be created without having inner peace. Gary talks about his journey through grief and trauma and how we, as a society, tend to avoid these feelings of pain. He talks about how we need to metabolism our grief and unburden ourselves. He realized that we cannot have peace if we don’t have unity. And we cannot have unity, if we don’t address the thing that caused us grief. He began working with Hope Fitzgerald and they developed workshops together to awaken people and move them through the grief process. He also worked with Tezikiah Gabriel and together they founded “We Rise as One” which is a celebration of connection and compassion through the power of music. It’s an inclusive, multi-generational, multi-religious, multi-cultural event as a way to feel our unity. This is a way to transcend the toxic division we are experiencing at this time. This is another way to celebrate both the International Day and Week of Peace.

They are hosting the We Rise As One – A Celebration of Connection, Compassion & Hope event on Saturday, Sept 27 at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco. This will be a powerful day of music, healing, and unity, live in San Francisco and globally streamed. Co-produced with Pathways to Peace (founders of the UN International Day of Peace) and Grace Cathedral. This is Part 1 of the interview.
