Speaker: James O'dea

Social Healing

Every week, we have a "Forest Call" to share insights and inspiration from various corners of the ServiceSpace ecosystem.  Typically, the call opens with a circle of sharing, then features a guest speaker and is followed by dynamic Q&A around the emergent themes.
Our guests this week will be:  James O'dea!  ​James has had a very interesting personal trajectory.  After a spiritual journey that began in his early teens, his activist years peaked as the head of Amensty International's DC office; after that, he focused on international development as the ED of Seva Foundation; and then, as the President of IONS, he dived into the science of spirituality.  Now he is in a phase of integrating all of those elements into what he calls "social healing".  On this call, James will share stories from his colorful journey and insights around his latest work around collective healing.
