It seems almost impossible to have a civil political debate. Why is that? Why must things get so nasty? Is there a way to discuss our differences and still be kind to one another and not accuse the other person of being ignorant and uninformed? The answer is yes according to Monica Guzman.

She is a psychiatrist and author of the book The Anatomy of Anxiety (https://amzn.to/3863pKp))
