Defeating The Toxic New Normal, Finding Our Path to Empathy

The human journey can be challenging enough but it is ever more complicated by social and technological changes that are subliminally provoking greater divide and creating a “toxic new normal." Rampant technology growth, rising cultural divides, a hyper-paced world and an increasing culture of dehumanization are all combining to create confusion, fear and separation while tearing at the heart of civilized society. Respect, kindness, and simple appreciation for others, all tenets for human empathy and understanding, are all being displaced. History has brought us to the era of the “toxic new normal”. Can we ever unite together again amid an ever-changing, tumultuous world? How do we understand that we all have more in common than we do different? What can each of us do to help heal the differences while leaving a meaningful, personal legacy? In this new book, The Toxic New Normal, Finding Our Path Back to Empathy and Understanding, the root cause of division in the world today and why we have lost appreciation for each other is examined. Ultimately, there is a way back to unity and understanding, but can we consciously make both the individual and societal choices to do so?
