How Do You Turn Grief & Trauma Into Forgiveness, Healing & Hope After Unimaginable Loss? | Maoz Inon

Forgiveness might be the most underrated health practice we have. What does it take to choose it after losing both of your parents in a single morning?

Maoz Inon is an Israeli peace activist, Co-CEO of InterAct International, and co-author of the New York Times bestseller The Future Is Peace. We talk about rejecting revenge, radical forgiveness, and his five-step framework for turning a dream into action. Forgiveness is how you stop living the life someone else chose for you. Hope is an action, so next time you feel hurt, ask what you want to build with it, not who to blame.

What we explore:

- How Maoz and his family chose to reject revenge after losing their parents.

- Why forgiveness is personal freedom, and how to practice it when betrayal runs deep.

- What a farmer father's daily catastrophes taught about agency and rebuilding.

- How a 5-step framework turns hope into action: dream, values, coalition, roadmap, execution.

- Why vulnerability and storytelling open doors that arguing never will
