As tragic as the unfolding situation in Israel may be, Dan joins the program to bring a welcome degree of optimism to our discourse on the subject. Israel, it turns out, has become one of the happiest societies in the world in recent years. But simultaneously, levels of fulfillment have plummeted in the United States.

To mark Veteran's Day, we're revisiting our2017 interview with author Sebastian Junger a journalist deeply engaged with war and the people who fight in them. As a contributing editor for Vanity Fair, he's covered international stories including the war in Afghanistan, a region and subject he's returned to over the course of his career. In this podcast, Sebastian Junger discusses his book Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging which explores the complexities soldiers can find when they return from war. We talk about his research in anthropology, psychology and history as well as his own observations and experiences in his effort to understand why there are such high numbers of veterans suffering from PTSD. Junger argues there are primal human needs-- for loyalty, a sense of belonging, and a connection to something bigger than ourselves and he discusses how service members often find this connection when they are deployed, and therefore returning home can leave some 21st-century combat veterans with a profound sense of loss. Added to that loss is a society disengaged from the war in which these veterans fought which Junger argues may account for the high-percentage of service members suffering from PTSD. He also discusses ways to address these concerns, the significance of the arts for Veterans and their families in confronting these challenging situations, and the importance of the work being done for veterans and service members through the NEA initiative Creative Forces.

“The most alarming rhetoric comes out of the dispute between liberals and conservatives, and it's a dangerous waste of time because they're both right....If you want to make a society work, then you don't keep underscoring the places where you're different—you underscore your shared humanity,” ― Sebastian Junger, Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/donavon-riley/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/donavon-riley/support

Good morning everyone! Welcome back to the Motivated Entrepreneurs podcast. Today we have a book review called "Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging. Decades before the American Revolution, Benjamin Franklin lamented that English settlers were constantly fleeing over to the Indians-but Indians almost never did the same. Tribal society has been exerting an almost gravitational pull on Westerners for hundreds of years, and the reason lies deep in our evolutionary past as a communal species. The most recent example of that attraction is combat veterans who come home to find themselves missing the incredibly intimate bonds of platoon life. The loss of closeness that comes at the end of deployment may explain the high rates of post-traumatic stress disorder suffered by military veterans today. Hope you like and enjoy this episode.

Back from the Caribbean with a radiant glow, Jonah is joined by Stephen Eide—senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute—for an outrageously wonky discussion of homelessness in America. The two kick things off by exploring the history of transient labor and the categorical distinctions between hobos, tramps, and bums, before turning to the root causes of the growing homeless populations in big cities. They also explore the relationship between homelessness and changes to psychiatric health care, the loss of affordable housing in big cities, and the idea that homelessness is a natural outgrowth of late-stage capitalism.Show Notes:-Stephen's page at the Manhattan Institute-Stephen's recent book, Homelessness in America: The History and Tragedy of an Intractable Social Problem-Stephen: “Housing First's Imperial Overreach”-Stephen: “The Adams Homeless Deluge”-Madness in the Streets: How Psychiatry and the Law Abandoned the Mentally Ill-Sebastian Junger's Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging

Noted economist Russ Roberts provides answers to these pressing questions on today's Remnant, which concerns his new book, Wild Problems: A Guide to the Decisions That Define Us. In life, we're faced with many big decisions that can't be solved by calculation, like when to marry, what career to choose, and whether to have children.

He joins us to discuss his book Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging and what he's learned by covering war for the past 20 years. [Note: This is a previously broadcast episode from the vault that we felt deserved a fresh pass through your earholes!] What We Discuss with Sebastian Junger: Why do some people get addicted to war and recall times of crisis with fondness? Does an affluent society free of hardship and danger deprive its citizens of an intrinsic need to be useful? Are war journalists armed, and do they contribute to group defense in the field? What happens when someone who's been through war comes home, and why is it often so difficult for them to reintegrate into society? Why is there a phrase for “going native” but not “going civilized?” And much more...

Sebastian Junger is an American journalist, author, and filmmaker. He is well noted for his 1997 book, The Perfect Storm: A True Story of Men Against the Sea, and with the success of this non-fiction book, Junger was touted as a new Hemingway. His work stimulated renewed interest in adventure non-fiction. The book received a large pre-publication deal for movie rights, was on the New York Times bestseller list for a year in the hardback edition, and for two years in paperback. Alongside British photographer Tim Hetherington, Junger created The Other War: Afghanistan, produced with ABC News and Vanity Fair. It was shown on Nightline in September 2008 and the two men shared the DuPont-Columbia Award for broadcast journalism for the work. His book, War revolves around a platoon of the US Army173rd Airborne stationed in Afghanistan. Junger, along with Hetherington, used material gathered in the Korengal Valley of Afghanistan for the book and to create a related documentary feature, Restrepo. The film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature and won the Grand Jury Prize for a domestic documentary at the Sundance Film Festival in 2010. On April 27, 2011, Junger was presented with the "Leadership in Entertainment Award" by Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) for his work on Restrepo. Junger's book, Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging, was published in May 2016. Tribe studies war veterans from an anthropological perspective and asks, "How do you make veterans feel that they are returning to a cohesive society that was worth fighting for in the first place?" Junger's premise is that "Soldiers ignore differences of race, religion, and politics within their platoon..." and upon return to America, find a fractious society splintered into various competing factions, often hostile to one another. In Junger's latest book, Freedom, he uses personal experience gathered while on an expedition along the east coast railroad lines along with history to examine human nature as it searches for the balance between community and freedom.

Sean Illing talks with Sebastian Junger, journalist, filmmaker, and author of the recent book Freedom. Informed by his experience hiking (and trespassing) along America's rail lines, Junger discusses the paradoxes of a "free" society, his recent near-death experience, and how the definition of freedom can change over the course of a life.

In this episode, Monk uses Sebastian Junger's recent book, Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging, to examine the current state of mental and community health in affluent societies. Here is a little more about Junger's book: Combining history, psychology, and anthropology, TRIBE explores what we can learn from tribal societies about loyalty, belonging, and the eternal human quest for meaning. It explains the irony that-for many veterans as well as civilians-war feels better than peace, adversity can turn out to be a blessing, and disasters are sometimes remembered more fondly than weddings or tropical vacations. TRIBE explains why we are stronger when we come together, and how that can be achieved even in today's divided world. *** "Accuser"single drops November 1. Reserve your copy here.

"Podcasts need three basic things in order to be content: they need to feel competent at what they do; they need to feel authentic in their lives; and they need to feel connected to others." Alex, Jodi, and Laurie discuss Lodi's first Community-Wide Read of Sebastian Junger's book Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging. They reflect on the panel event in July, what went well and what might be done differently, and where things could go next.

Sebastian Junger - Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging - Author, filmmaker, adventurer Sebastian Junger is our generation's Hemingway. His ability to view and convey the essence of humanity in some of the most extreme circumstances gives him a unique voice - one that is direct but not brash, spartan but not unpolished.

Alan shaved his beard! Opening with a few breaths together before diving into this heavy topic. Thank you to our listeners for providing feedback; you asked us to dive deeper into the impact our gender identity has on the roles we play in life. The topic also felt timely due to current events during the week of recording. Alan shares a text thread regarding the signing of an executive order that allows participation in men's or women's sports based on gender identification/ identity regardless of biological sex. They talk more specifically the impact transgender females will have on women's sports. Feb 3rd is Women in Sports Day, Bre talks about her own experience & the influence that high school, collegiate & semi pro sports had. They address there are always exceptions, but they are exceptions, not the rule. Women worked hard to get their own division in sports. Bre played water polo which wasn't in the olympics as a women's sport until the year 2000. They talk about the biological differences in men and women, specifically as it relates to sports. They also share it is important for transgender men and women to be able to compete and suggest transgender divisions. Alan and Bre talk about testosterone, estrogen and the advantages that Performance Enhancing Drugs (PEDs) plays in sports. Discrimination is part of the human DNA. It's what kicks on fight and flight mode which helps us make split second decisions ultimately keeping us alive. We are different!! And that is great! Imagine if we all had the same superpower. That would be lame AF. There are physiological differences. Women bleed monthly! They can also get pregnant & potentially deal with abortions. Rape happens, and it happens to everyone. And to support everyone more effectively, we need to acknowledge these differences. They bring up if we can identify as different genders, why is there such a problem with identifying as different cultures. A double standard that needs to be addressed. Union is not uniformity. Equality is not equity. One only equals one, it never equals one and a half. Life isn't fair, and that is a good thing. We all don't want the same thing. The feminist movement has pushed women into male roles which is creating sameness. You can be both CEO and parent, but then who is raising the children. There is a pendulum swinging - men realize they want to be home more with their families - this is a warning sign for women to not to let that pendulum swing so far as you will regret not being with your families. Alan circles back to feminism and his hatred for the term “toxic masculinity.” A man's job is to protect and provide. Masculinity and Femininity is in all of us. Men and women should be honored for their roles, their superpowers and their choices around it. Everyone needs role models that look like them. Helps to see what is possible. Alan shares his journey in masculinity with a shout out to Sheryl and Paul Titone for raising a functional human being. Always ask for permission to give feedback and learn to ask the question - “How can I support you?” JOURNAL PROMPT:: Write about your thoughts from the episode. Write about your thoughts on masculinity and femininity.

Climb aboard the wagon for the third installment of "On the Dusty Trail". This week Dusty updates you on his training, gives his pick for the McGregor-Poirier fight, and then dives into the topic of the week- In the Spirit of Adversity. War, tragedy, and disaster. Hard times and periods of adversity have a funny way of bringing people together. More curiously, though, is the bonds formed during these periods and how one longs for and becomes nostalgic about these hard times. In this episode I refer to a few books that initially piqued my interest on the topic and that have shaped me as a person:Tribe- On Homecoming and Belonging written by Sebastian JungerBehave- The Biology Of Humans At Our Best And Worst written by Robert SapolskyThe Great War For Civilisation- The Conquest of the Middle East written by the late Robert Fisk

Our mental health heavily influences our quality of life, so it makes sense that mental health, just like physical health, needs to be taken care of and maintained. One way that it can be maintained is through finding a sense of community, however, the way we are living today in Western society has created a big problem of loneliness. 60% of Americans report they don’t have a single person to go to in a time of crisis and in a struggle. This disconnection from one another has created endemic loneliness and isolation for many people. Loneliness has been shown to have similar health effects as smoking, or being overweight. The progressive disconnection from ourselves and other human beings is at the root of the problem with the way we are living.On today’s Broken Brain Podcast, our host Dhru talks to Dr. Omid Naim, a Western-trained psychiatrist who came to see the need for more holistic, spiritual, and community-based approaches to health care, by seeing the limitations of the conventional model first hand. He completed General Psychiatry and Child & Adolescent Psychiatry residency at the University of California San Francisco, and went on to work in community psychiatry with the most high-risk and severely ill youth in the county coming out of foster care. Dr. Naim is the founder of Hope Integrative Psychiatry, a multi-modal approach for whole person transformation and healing. He also founded the non-profit, La Maida Project, which designs new models for families, communities, and organizations to become ecosystems of optimal health and well-being based on our innate human nature. In this episode, Dhru and Dr. Naim talk about why society is so sick, what is contributing to the epidemic of mental health disorders, and how we need a new model for addressing chronic health conditions. They discuss how unresolved trauma and grief underlie most chronic health conditions. They also talk about what it really means to be in community and how we have an innate capacity to heal under proper conditions.In this episode, we dive into: -The current state of society in America and the real problem of loneliness (1:51)-How our stories shape us (11:02)-The birth of the nuclear family and the rise of mental illness (13:32) -How anxiety, distress, and body pains are an expression of what we’re holding onto (14:53)-What community really means and the core conflicts of modern life (18:03)-How disasters and crisis bring out the best in us, and how we heal through connection (24:27)-The power of purpose and the healing process (35:27) -Unresolved childhood trauma and mental health disorders (41:59)-The influence of culture and society on mental health (49:21)-Where listeners can learn more about Dr. Omid Naim (58:23)For more on Dr. Omid Naim you can follow him on Instagram @LaMaidaProject, on Facebook @LaMaidaProject, and through his websites https://www.hopepsychiatry.com/ and https://lamaidaproject.org/.Also mentioned in this episode:-Broken Brain Podcast Episode #20 - Depression and Trauma: Looking Beyond Medications with Dr. Omid Naim - https://drhyman.com/blog/2018/09/14/bb-ep20/-Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging by Sebastian Junger http://www.sebastianjunger.com/tribe-by-sebastian-junger-The True Believer: Thoughts on The Nature of Mass Movements by Eric Hoffer - https://www.amazon.com/True-Believer-Thoughts-Movements-Perennial/dp/0060505915-Aging in an Era of Fake News Study - https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/0963721420915872For more on Dhru Purohit, be sure to follow him on Instagram @dhrupurohit, on Facebook @dhruxpurohit, on Twitter @dhrupurohit, and on YouTube @dhrupurohit.

I’m a huge fan of morning routines because I think they can transform your ability to focus, sleep well, and get the most out of your day, especially in this busy, modern world. What I’ve found is that the best way to begin your day is to feed your body the right information or the right nutrients. That’s why Dr. Mark Hyman and I created the Pegan Shake. It’s a nutritionally packed morning blend designed to support healthy blood sugar, energy, and brainpower. It contains some of my most favorite brain-boosting foods like MCT and avocado. It also features acacia fiber for healthy gut function and collagen, pumpkin, and pea protein to support muscle synthesis. Check it out at getfarmacy.com/peganshake.

Welcome to The Academic Life. You are smart and capable, but you aren't an island, and neither are we. So we reached across our mentor network to bring you podcasts on everything from how to finish that project, to how to take care of your beautiful mind. Wish we'd bring in an expert about something? Email us at cgessler@gmail.com or dr.danamalone@gmail.com. Find us on Twitter : The Academic Life @AcademicLifeNBN. In this episode you'll hear: disaster stories, finishing a book project, poetry, and what resilience is and isn't. Our guest is: Jennifer Strube, a writer, educator, and licensed therapist who loves chronicling life's stories. After three master's degrees and a decade of teaching, she relocated west from New York City in search of open sky. An avid believer in the wild places, her work highlights the spaces that wake one up—the byroads of travel, the subtlety of everyday grace, and that impetuous ache called love. She is the author of the poetry book Wild Everything, discussed in this episode. Your host is: Dr. Christina Gessler, a historian of women and gender. She specializes in decoding diaries written by rural women in the 19th century. She credits her ability to read nearly-illegible things to a childhood spent trying read her dad's handwriting. She reinterprets traditional narratives through her blogs, podcasts, essays, photography, and poetry. She met Jen at a community supper c.2014 and they've been friends ever since. Their county has faced three disasters—the Thomas Fire, a deadly debris flow, and the Covid-19 outbreak—in the last three years. Somehow, Jen and Christina are both still here. Christina supports her resilience by taking photos in nature, which you can find here.

In today’s episode of Rebel Performance Radio, James speaks with former U.S. Marine and private military contractor Tim Lyons. We spend much of our conversation focused on the fundamental role of mental toughness in his roles as a Marine and private contractor and how much of the people in the world today are in dire need of the mindset he acquired throughout his military career. Listen in as Tim discusses the modern phenomenon that is the fragility mindset, why he is dedicated to the phrase “live for those who can’t”, the importance of maintaining the momentum, and overcoming all show, no go syndrome. Key Highlights [09:11] An introduction to Tim Lyons [14:00] What human performance or being “life-proof” means for Tim [17:09] Can Marine-level mental toughness be trained, or is it innate? [22:12] Tim’s take on the “fragility mindset” so prevalent in today’s society [29:44] What “live for those who can’t” means for Tim [42:32] The importance of lifting weights for performance [45:23] The “all show, no go” syndrome Powerful Quotes by Tim When training in the Marines, you will very quickly see who is capable of putting one foot in front of the other and who breaks down in front of everyone. You can feel broken, but you need to keep it internal. Suffer in silence. People with a fragility mindset have never really had to wake up and do something that challenges them in a way where, if they do not do what they need to do today, they will not live to see tomorrow. In their brain, many people today think they have serious issues, but if there's a roof over your head and food on your table, it’s really not. You can always work harder, but sometimes you don’t need to work harder. It’s about knowing when enough is enough and you’ve done all you can for this piece of art before finally putting it out. True happiness is achieved not through constant pursuit alone, but through those times you have to overcome particularly tough challenges. If you have a clear vision for your career, even if there are setbacks and events that you didn’t expect, like COVID-19, as long as you feel in your gut that you’re headed in the right direction, just keep going.

Sebastian Junger is a journalist, author and film director. His books include bestseller The Perfect Storm, War, and Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging. He directed Restrepo, a harrowing and touching documentary that follows the brutal deployment of a U.S platoon in the Korengal Valley in Afghanistan (ex Navy Seal commander Jocko Willink has pointed to the documentary as the best depiction of life on the front there is; it's on Netflix, go watch it). We talk about how much modern life differs from the lives of our ancestors. We explore how evolution shaped us as social primates but increasingly we live alone and apart from those close to us, noting how in cities we regularly pack ourselves like sardines into public transport but avoid each other's gaze like it's a mortal sin. We discuss the intense meaningfulness found in close knit communities where survival is on the line, and examine why this means that soldiers often do not want to return to society after war. We note the discrepancy between being on the front line, where every day is about keeping yourself and your brothers alive and every action matters, and living in a safe wealthy society, doing a fairly inconsequential job with seemingly no impact on personal or group survival. We consider the importance of person to person interactions and social rituals like weddings, and examine how tribal societies used ritual to assist returning soldiers in reintegration and healing the psychic traumas of war, noting how we lack any equivalent rituals today. Finally, we share reflections on growing up in affluent middle class neighborhoods and tips for leading a satisfying, community oriented existence.

Hello, and welcome to another edition of the Inside The Newsroom podcast newsletter! This week’s guest is Sebastian Junger, author of five books including The Perfect Storm (remember that movie?). Sebastian and I talked about his latest book, Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging, which is a detailed history of how and why tribes are formed, and why today’s society isn’t set up for humans to function properly. It’s one of those books that you know is going to change your life and way of thinking within the first 20 pages. Below is a post-game analysis of everything we talked about. The Premise For a BookTribe is only 138 pages long, but that’s what I like about Sebastian’s work the most. Authors often try to fill out a 300-page book and, as readers, we’ll suffer with a ton of waffle. With Tribe, I was in and out within a couple of days. The book is actually an extension of the below longform piece Sebastian wrote on how PTSD became a problem for soldiers beyond the battlefield. Even if you skip the book and just read the original article, I promise you your mind will be blown. Sebastian Junger for Vanity FairWhy Do They Keeping Taking Us To War?At school I was always told that wars were fought over for economic and religious reasons. Take the U.S. and UK’s war against various terrorist groups in Iraq and Afghanistan. It’s very much a war of different ideas with big economic interests. But what I haven’t ever been told, until now, is the positive psychological effects that war brings — unity, cohesion and meaning. Now, this doesn’t mean I condone war. I do not. But to unpick things you disagree with, you have to dig deeper under the shell to understand the human traits that lead people to do certain things. Steve Taylor, The GuardianLike Me, PleaseBefore you read on, please like this edition of Inside The Newsroom by clicking the ❤️ below the title. That way I’ll appear in clever algorithms and more people will be able to read. Cheers.Why Do Disasters Bring Us Together?Turns out it’s not just war that unites us. The first thing we’ll hear whenever a hurricane or other natural disaster hits is about how tough the people affected are, and how they’re already rebuilding the community. Disasters, as well as wars, trigger our need for social-connection, and more specifically an increased willingness to help others in times of stress. Wars are one of the greatest stresses anyone could bear, so maybe we just need to get the world’s leaders to legalize weed and everything will be alright.Emma Seppala, Scientific AmericanThe Cult of Extreme SportsBack in May I completed my first ever walking marathon. Six hours and 51 minutes of complete hell. Seriously, don’t knock until you’ve tried it. As I crossed the finishing line with my new 70-year-old walking buddy, Gill, I felt a sense of direct connection with her. We’d just walked for seven freaking hours together, and I knew many far-too-personal things about her. I’ve already signed up for my next one in September with hopes that Gill will be there too (I forgot to take her number). Anyway, this is a roundabout way of saying that I now understand the obsession of extreme sports. It’s about social connection and having an identity, especially in this modern world of comfort and routine. Take Badwater, for instance. Covering 135 miles through Death Valley is no joke. But the ability to be one of only a few to complete it each year is enough to drive people to do crazy things.Heather Hatfield, WebMDThe Value of SufferingWithout becoming a depression newsletter, it is fascinating to learn about why we feel the way we do. For me, a big turning point was realizing I could turn rejection and unfavorable events into positives. Below, David Goggins neatly sums up why suffering is actually a good thing that we need in order to succeed. The Need To Be NeededThis will be a test for my dad to see if he actually reads these things. Stephen Levitt recently retired after a 40-year career in the finance industry. He had a tight-knit group of about five or six colleagues he’d see or talk to every day, all conversing for the good of one shared goal. Now that he’s out of the business he, like millions of other retirees, has found it hard to know how to spend all of his free time. This is one of the most common misconceptions about retirement, the notion that no more work will be heaven. But no. Work and feeling needed is essential for the soul.Michael Mamas for Huff PostRelated Podcasts#39 — Henry Abbott (TrueHoop)#30 — Art Markman (Psychology Professor University of Texas)#24 — Ben Hammersley (Technologist)Next Up…… is James BallLast Time#43 — Kashimir Hill (New York Times)Thanks so much for making it all the way to the bottom.

War is good for mental health! Don't believe it? Suicide rates DROP during wars and other disastrous times. Why? Because people experience a much deeper connection and unity with each other. It reconnects us to our tribal habits of sticking together, supporting one another and being a community. It brings out the best in people, not just their worst. Their love, their courage, their selflessness, a purpose. How can we create that unity without needing a disaster or war?
We initially met up with historian and philosopher Daniele Bolelli to discuss the Lakota people and other Plains tribes, but naturally our conversation expanded into modern individualism, practical intellect, disdain for variety, narrative thinking & bad mental health, happiness, community, what constitutes a tribe, nationalism, conservative post-modern utopian thinking, morality & religion expressed through politics, lose-lose situations (screwing over the world and still being unhappy), living on autopilot, lazy thinking, centrism, sh*tposting, social media toxicity creating addiction, Taoism & thinking in percentages (Bayesian reasoning), game theory, absolute thinking IS dogma (even when you think splitting it down the middle is always the right answer), the mixed mental arts of mixed martial arts, podcasts & continued education, and then more about American Plains tribes. It's a long podcast but we sincerely feel like not one second was wasted. And though we veered into nearly everything, we believe what we ended up recording will go down in podcasting history as pretty good. Pretty, pretty, pretty good.

Having a feeling of losing your 'tribe' and your sense of identity is difficult. Isolation, depression, and anger can easily creep in. In this episode, we are joined by Jonathan Lambert and we dive into the world under the sea and discuss the challenges of homecoming and belonging. It is a problem many veterans face post military. “Humans don’t mind hardship, in fact they thrive on it; what they mind is not feeling necessary. Modern society has perfected the art of making people not feel necessary. It's time for that to end.” ― Sebastian Junger, Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging Jonathan Lambert is a retired USN Submariner. Robert is a retired US Army Armor and Recruiter/Retention MSG turned Fortune 50 executive; Paul Martinez is a retired US Army Ranger and sniper NCO; Erich Martin is an active duty U.S. Army Special Forces Master Sergeant; Scott Johnson is a former British Army Sapper and EOD NCO.

It is hard for humans to survive on their own. They need a tribe. Challenges and pressures are hard on an individual in a group, but much greater for an individual in isolation. We talk about the ancient tribal human behaviors: loyalty, inter-reliance, cooperation - that flare up in communities during times of turmoil and suffering. What can we learn from our tribe? What can we do to help our tribe flourish. Just over a year ago, we did a podcast referring to Sebastian Junger's book, Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging. As it turns out, Sebastian was a runner, and a pretty good one. Today, Sebastian joins The Nation and help us understand the concept of Tribe better and how it can relate to running.

Growing your relationships with those that you are close to will add much more than a conversation to your life. The close relationships will add support and encouragement to help you excel in all areas of life.While social media makes us think that we are growing closer together with all of our friends, it can actually keep you further from them. Check in with those you want to grow closer to. Ask them how their week is or what is going on - and genuinely listen to them. Caring about others will naturally bring you closer to them, so start by reaching out, then listen to them.Hosts: Ryan Gardner and Nik HallResources:-Joe Rogan Experience #975 - Sebastian Junger [podcast]-Joe Rogan Experience #1034 - Sebastian Junger [podcast]-Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging - Sebastian Junger [book]-Road to the Games Ep. 18.05: Mat Fraser Vs.

We discuss "Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging" by Sebstian Junger. In his book, Junger reflects on combat trauma and the role of community in providing meaning and support for warfighters. The book highlights the contrast between the cohesive, mission-driven community life of the soldier and the individualistic, sometimes isolated nature of peaceful suburban life. In Junger's view, the transition between a focused community and an individualistic one exacerbates the difficulties in recovering from wartime trauma.

In this interview, I talk to Sebastian Junger. Sebastian wrote Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging. Sebastian is also the author of The Perfect Storm, which was made into a major film. His films include the award-winning documentaries Restrepo and Korengal. Sebastian Junger began his career as a journalist in war town countries such as Bosnia and Afghanistan. Through his own struggles with PTSD and his study of units on the battlefield, Sebastian dives deep into what it is like for someone to return from war. What are the struggles of returning to modern society where life is easy, and people are separated from each other? How has the loss of community hurt veterans returning from battle? Sebastian takes on difficult topics, and challenges us to think about issues related to the state of American society. Be sure to check out Sebastian’s website: http://www.sebastianjunger.com/
Dede Devine, Native American Connections President and CEO, talks with Jim and Jan about her organization's mission as a sustainable resource for recovery, housing, employment, wellness, and traditional healing for the Native American people of Phoenix. Key Takeaways [1:52] Dede outlines the mission of Native American Connections (NAC) as a grass-roots-style nonprofit, serving Native American individuals in the Phoenix Arizona area move toward health and wellness. [3:04] The 180 employees of NAC are engaged and committed because of the difference NAC makes in people’s lives. It’s life-changing and life-saving. Dede has seen many changes in processes over 40 years, while the mission remains the same.[5:19] In the 1970s, Native American people came to Phoenix from the reservation areas looking for work. Nonprofits, such as NAC, formed to serve them. NAC was founded to help them with addiction issues, housing, and jobs, and to encourage wellness in a healthy Native community. [14:33] Dede is most proud of the unchanging mission of NAC over the years. NAC provides recovery services in a safe living environment, connecting people to jobs, and creating a healthy community. She is really proud that they didn’t have mission creep, chase grants, or do marketing. NAC is promoted through their work. To have a sustainable service organization you need a sustainable business model. [18:48] Dede and the NAC campaigned for, organized, and developed the Phoenix Indian School Visitor Center commemorating the Federal Indian boarding school that operated in Phoenix from 1891 to 1990. The school played a major role in the tribes of the Southwest. Now its story is preserved. [25:26] Native American tribes are sovereign nations. Tribal leaders have authority and responsibility for their nations equivalent to that of the U.S. President for America. Tribal leaders focus on economic development in the context of the needs of the whole community. Dede and NAC look at the whole person’s needs and the whole community’s needs — how the history and culture impact the individual. [30:57] There are over 540 Federally-recognized tribes. They each have their own culture, language, and resources. They share a connection to the land and a commitment to their homeland. They are grounded by their community, even as they move around the U.S. [34:08] We’re all in relationship with each other. We have interconnectedness. People step up and lead at different times. Think of it as a circle. In the community, you give when you’re healthy and when you’re in need, others give to you. When you’re connected, it’s not about ego, or who’s in charge. There is an integrity that you will help, reach out, and step up in the community. It’s reciprocity.

It’s life-saving. The mission is the same — the way we care about people.” “We recognize [in] people — regardless of their past — what their future potential is.” “I was highly influenced by those healers, early on.” “There were several of those healers that took life very simply. They were committed to the environment … to people’s human spirit.” “To really have a sustainable service organization you have to have a really sustainable business model.” Decisions need to be made in view of their effect on the next seven generations. “[In the Native American communities] ‘enough’ is about when everybody is interconnected and everybody is taken care of.” “I give when I’m healthy, and when I’m in need, other people give to me.” Bio Diana “Dede” Yazzie Devine, Native American Connections President/CEO has been working with Native American urban and tribal entities since 1972 and has been the CEO of Native American Connections (NAC) since 1979. NAC is a 501 (c) 3 Native American operated nonprofit corporation that provides comprehensive behavioral health services that integrate Native cultural and traditional healing practices, affordable housing, and community-based economic development opportunities. NAC serves all populations with a targeted mission to serve Native Americans living both in the Phoenix urban area and from tribal communities. NAC has developed, owns and operates over 700 units of affordable housing for working families and permanent supportive housing for homeless individuals.

Laura Love, is the Founder and Chief Cultural Officer of GroundFloor Media, Inc., which has been recognized four times by OUTSIDE magazine as one of the top five Best Places to Work in America (including twice at No. 1). Laura joins Jim and Jan in a discussion about building a startup around a vision of shared values and culture, and shares leadership basics learned over the years that have given her company an attrition rate of 2 percent (the metric). Key Takeaways [2:21] Laura believes that investing time in the hiring process, including informal meetings, helps discover if a candidate will be a good fit. Immediate and thorough onboarding brings a new associate into the culture and teaches them the values. It is essential for associates to feel welcome and wanted. [5:08] Laura wants people to feel that the company is a family that always has each other’s back. Extending the family to their clients means getting to know them on a personal level. Feedback to clients comes from a place of integrity and support. [6:30] Laura started GroundFloor Media from her basement, and she wanted to design a company where people were treated like human beings and where people actually wanted to work because it didn’t feel like work. [12:58] Laura finds that being personally open and vulnerable with her team allows her team to be open with her when they are going through difficulties. [14:13] Laura hires based on values. She has filled her company with people who embrace the same values and culture so she knows they will make the decisions she would make if she were present. [18:34] People remember the words you speak and the feeling behind them. If a leader is not aligned with the words they speak, people will notice. Be intentional and be aligned with what you say. [26:36] Laura depends on peer groups, and meets quarterly with a forum and checks in with them monthly. She has a ‘painful 7:00 a.m. accountability call’ each week with a peer, where they share experiences, not advice. Laura offers three reasons to get involved. It can be lonely at the top, so feedback advisors are crucial. You are in this together and learn from each other. Your forum is loyal. [29:57] Laura has one-on-one walking meetings to give associates space to unpack their dreams for her. Then she empowers them to work on that development ideal for four weeks and report back to her. [32:25] Laura puts an emphasis on hiring people who are smart and able to go create and to make decisions. Laura’s entrepreneur father taught her to do business on a handshake. Use contracts but business should be based on trust and respect, and with people whose company you want to keep. To make the business world better, deal with people you like and respect. We all work harder because of it. Website: GroundFloorMedia.com LinkedIn: Laura Love Twitter: @LoveGFM Facebook: LoveGFM Quotable Quotes “Culture is like a heartbeat. You can really feel it when you walk into a room of any company that has a strong culture.” “We are a family, … we have each others’ back, and that extends to our clients, as well. We are part of their family.” “I knew that I knew how to do PR. I never imagined owning a company.” People who see the silver lining in every situation can learn from bad experiences and apply the good in new circumstances.Unless you are open and vulnerable and allow people to support you in your journey, they will not engage with you when they go through trials. “If you hire correctly and you hire based on values, then it doesn’t matter as much that you’re not in the room, anymore.” Much of leadership is about hiring the right people and creating a culture where it’s very intentional but organic. Culture is set from the top but if it’s only a mandate from the top and it’s not embraced, it will never flourish. People remember the words you speak and the feeling behind them. If a leader is not aligned with the words they speak, people can sense that. Leaders give takeaways. The goal is to have people hear you and create their own takeaway. “Everyone has a chance and a choice. They choose ‘in.’ And if they choose out of our organization I will support them fully.” “If [a development goal] comes from me, it’s not going to be as impactful as if it’s something they’re dreaming.” “I hire people much smarter than I am and I get the hell out of their way.” “Do business with people you like and respect. We all work harder because of it.” “The biggest learning I’ve had … is so simple, but it’s just — be real. People are so comfortable when somebody’s real.” “It may mean that it looks messy … it may be painting outside the numbers but at least it’s your artwork and it’s exactly who you are.” “I would tell people that are younger and starting out — don’t try and be any different than who you are.” Put together a list for the year of 52 things you will do that scare you or you have never done before. Bio In 2001, Laura Love decided to take a leap of faith and create a public relations agency that was unlike any she had experienced before. Drawing from a background in journalism and extensive experience in media relations, she launched GroundFloor Media (GFM) out of her basement in Boulder, Colo., with a focus on hiring senior-level talent who both served as strategists and handled tactical execution for clients. Sixteen years later, the peer-to-peer model still stands, and GFM is now an award-winning communications firm focused on public relations and crisis & issues management and staffed by nearly 40 seasoned professionals. In 2016, Laura co-founded GFM’s sister agency, CenterTable, offering social media, digital advertising, website design and development, SEO, video production, creative campaigns and content development. GFM has been recognized four times by OUTSIDE magazine as one of the top five Best Places to Work in America (including twice at No. 1). GFM was also named the Best Boutique Agency to Work For in the nation by The Holmes Report, an influential public relations industry newsletter. It was also recognized by the Denver Business Journal as one of the top small companies on its Best Places to Work list for seven years in a row. In 2016, GFM was named a Certified B Corporation® by the global nonprofit B Lab®, which recognizes companies meeting the highest global standards for corporate transparency, accountability, and social and environmental performance. In 2015, Laura created GFM’s primary charitable giving arm called The Get Grounded Foundation. The private 501(c)(3) foundation provides one-year community grants for new or expanded, innovative or entrepreneurial programs or projects within an existing, qualified nonprofit that directly support the healthy development of at-risk or neglected youth between the ages of 3 and 13 in the Denver Metro area. Community involvement is not only a passion but a way of life for Laura. Since she launched the agency, Laura has dedicated at least 15 percent of GFM’s work to nonprofit clients and pro bono accounts. She serves on numerous boards including Center for Women’s Health Research, Downtown Denver Inc., Early Milestones Colorado, Emmanuel Sanders Foundation, Havern School, Rocky Mountain Children’s Law Center and Tennyson Center for Children. She is a member of the Colorado Women's Chamber of Commerce and she serves on the Denver Art Museum’s marketing & strategic alliance committee. She is also past president of the Colorado chapter of the Entrepreneurs’ Organization (EO). Laura earned a master’s degree in journalism from Northwestern University and a bachelor’s degree from Vanderbilt University. In her spare time, she likes to dabble in real estate investing, is a frustrated interior designer and can’t figure out why she is always last on the Peloton leaderboard. Her teenage daughter just got her driver’s permit (so she encourages you to please stay off of the road), and her two young sons may have given her a gray hair or two, but they also always keep her laughing.

In this episode, I talk about returning to Canada after spending my 20s in China, and how reverse culture shock is similar to PTSD! "Humans don’t mind hardship, in fact they thrive on it; what they mind is not feeling necessary. Modern society has perfected the art of making people not feel necessary. It’s time for that to end." - Sebastian Junger ("Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging")

It is hard for humans to survive on their own. They need a tribe. Challenges and pressures are hard on an individual in a group, but much greater for an individual in isolation. We talk about the ancient tribal human behaviors: loyalty, inter-reliance, cooperation - that flare up in communities during times of turmoil and suffering. What can we learn from our tribe? What can we do to help our tribe flourish. East Coast Executive Producer, Andy Jones-Wilkins and Brian Chontosh sit around the table to talk about the Sebastian Junger book, Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging. Don met Brian, a decorated and retired Major in the Marine Corp and Navy Cross recipient, international adventure racer last year as they were experiencing the Tahoe 200-mile Endurance Run.

Sebastian Junger (@sebastianjunger) is a journalist, filmmaker, and bestselling author; he joins us to discuss his latest book Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging and his experiences covering war for the past 20 years. The Cheat Sheet: Why do some people get addicted to war and recall times of crisis with fondness? Does an affluent society free of hardship and danger deprive its citizens of an intrinsic need to be useful? Are war journalists armed, and do they contribute to group defense in the field? What happens when someone who's been through war comes home, and why is it often so difficult for them to reintegrate into society? Why is there a phrase for "going native" but not "going civilized?"

Bestselling author Sebastian Junger talks with Matt about his new book 'Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging.'
Decades before the American Revolution, Benjamin Franklin lamented that English settlers were constantly fleeing over to the Indians-but Indians almost never did the same. Tribal society has been exerting an almost gravitational pull on Westerners for hundreds of years, and the reason lies deep in our evolutionary past as a communal species. The most recent example of that attraction is combat veterans who come home to find themselves missing the incredibly intimate bonds of platoon life. The loss of closeness that comes at the end of deployment may explain the high rates of post-traumatic stress disorder suffered by military veterans today. Combining history, psychology, and anthropology, TRIBE explores what we can learn from tribal societies about loyalty, belonging, and the eternal human quest for meaning. - Amazon The Avid Reader Show is sponsored and produced by Wellington Square Bookshop in Chester County, PA.

“We hear of of war and the rumor of war.” We thank our soldiers for their service and we think that we are welcoming them back into society. But what are actually welcoming back into? They return often with an experience we cannot really comprehend. An experience that often bonds them together into their own tribe. One that makes them different from us. In fact as many of us work hard to breakdown the tribal bonds that divide us as a society, as globalization continues to homogenize us, both domestically and internationally, the experience of war often forms new, personal and deeper such bonds among the soldiers. In so doing, it makes it so much harder for them to be among us. Sebastian Junger the bestselling author of The Perfect Storm, A Death in Belmont and Fire takes a look at this phenomenon in Tribe: On Homecoming and Belonging My conversation with Sebastian Junger:
Summer’s here, and that means it’s time for Stephen’s summer reading list.
