TRANSCRIPT:

Hi, I’m Maytal, and this, is Heal With it. Join me on a journey around the globe where I meet the people and the communities that are revolutionizing the way we heal.

“We have to ask for the help and we have to be the help.”

Along the way, we’ll learn about the most innovative forms of healing on the planet when it comes to mental health. From barbershops in Arkansas, to park benches in Zimbabwe. From schools in Denmark to the intimate corners of Hollywood.

“I believe we really have to get to a place to want to learn, to explore, to think outside the box.”

On this podcast, we’ll question everything.

“And I think it's been said in many times, in many ways that like, if you're not crazy in this world, then you might not be paying attention.”

And we’ll talk about subjects that matter. Like the forces that shape our current world:

“Our society does not incentivize people to be honest, which is a really big problem when it comes to accountability.”

And the forces that could shape our future.

“If technology becomes intimate in the sense that it satisfies a number of our social needs, might that in a sense kind of serve like a drug, we might turn away from real human relationships.”
