034 — Exploring the Philosophy of Welcome to Humanity with Ryan Levesque & Dr. Fred

If you’ve listened to this podcast before, you may have asked yourself, “Why Welcome To Humanity? What’s up with that?” Today’s show switches things up, as Welcome To Humanity producer Ryan Levesque invites Dr. Fred to the guest seat to explore the underlying philosophy and ethos driving his work as a psychiatrist, coach, and podcast host. 

In today’s bold, candid, and provocative conversation, Dr. Fred and Ryan discuss:

• Listening and “being with” as a source of healing

• The desire to be heard as a fundamental human desire

• Why the phrase “welcome to humanity” is an incredibly compassionate response to suffering

• The “benefits” of a psychiatric diagnosis

• Biological psychiatry and chemical imbalances...what we still don’t know

• What is Non-Diagnosing Psychiatry

• Why “Us” vs. “Them” is an illusion

• A way to think about people whose philosophies we utterly reject

• What makes human beings remarkable

• Dr. Fred’s offers encouragement to listeners who are suffering right now
