In this episode of the Autonomic Healing Podcast, hosts Tom Pals and Ruth Lorensson explore the transformative concept of xenophilia—"the love of strangers"—and how embracing this mindset fosters resilience and connection in a world where change and movement are constant.
Together, they unpack the contrasts between xenophobia and xenophilia, illuminating how a hospitality mindset toward strangers can enrich our lives, strengthen our communities, and move us from survival mode to thriving.
With personal stories, insights into human nature, and an inspiring call to embrace the humanity in each of us, this episode offers a fresh take on building a truly connected, thriving world.
