Episode 2
In this episode, we review Cultivating Love: Wisdom for Life by Ken McGill, a practical and compassionate guide to growing wisdom and love throughout life. Drawing from psychology, theology, and neurobiology, McGill explores how wisdom can become compromised by trauma and maladaptive coping, and how it can be recalibrated through self-awareness, reparenting, and intentional growth. The book offers concrete tools for healing, strengthening self-love, and developing healthy adult behaviors such as empathy, boundaries, emotional regulation, and attunement. Ultimately, Cultivating Love invites readers to grow wiser, love more deeply, and live more skillfully in their relationships and daily lives.
