Epigineics, Intergenerational Trauma and global change, with Dr. Rachel Yehuda PhD and Jeffrey Van Dyk

Dr. Rachel Yehuda PhD is a highly respected leader and true pioneer in the field of epigenetics, intergenerational trauma, and the use of psychedelic-assisted therapies. A few years ago, a Dr Yehuda released a groundbreaking study on the children of Holocaust survivors, demonstrating how the lessons from trauma to be passed down intergenerationally, through markers in the genes. We talk about the implications of that on our society, and how psychedelics are providing great promise in supporting people to resolve deep-seeded traumas that they otherwise can’t seem to access. Dr. Yehuda stresses that while the maladaptive responses trauma are handed down, so are the responses that create resiliency. My hope is that this conversation will help you see that when you engage in personal and leadership development, that work sits inside of a larger cultural and intergenerational container.
