About this listen
Foster resilience in the face of political polarization
Unsettled by provocative news, clashing politicians, and social fragmentation, Americans struggle to navigate the challenges of living in a divided country. Facing the Fracture offers a path out of the distress and disempowerment plaguing everyday people. Grounded in psychological research, this book offers listeners strategies to foster resilience in the face of political polarization.
In this valuable book, Israel moves beyond explaining the problem of polarization to demonstrate how individuals can cope with the political divide, which seems to widen with each passing day. Listeners will find guidance to reduce toxic input from media, manage polarizing thoughts and feelings, and engage effectively with others. And they will learn that they have the power to improve their personal well-being, relationships, community, and country.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 29
Dr. Peterson guides us through the ancient, foundational stories of the Western world. In riveting detail, he analyzes the Biblical accounts of rebellion, sacrifice, suffering, and triumph that stabilize, inspire, and unite us culturally and psychologically. Adam and Eve and the eternal fall of mankind; the resentful and ultimately murderous war of Cain and Abel; the cataclysmic flood of Noah; the spectacular collapse of the Tower of Babel; Abraham’s terrible adventure; and the epic of Moses and the Israelites.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 4,206
Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

The plane is jam-packed. Every seat is taken. So of course the flight is delayed! Flight attendant Allegra Patel likes her job—she’s generally happy with her life, even if she can’t figure out why she hooks up with a man she barely speaks to—but today is her twenty-eighth birthday. She can think of plenty of things she’d rather be doing than placating a bunch of grumpy passengers.

Peace of Mind!
As both a DEI professional and a fellow human being, I can confidently say that this book is the missing tool in my toolbox. While I usually prefer listening to audiobooks, there are rare occasions when a book resonates so deeply that I feel compelled to get the hard copy—and this is one of those books. It's the kind of book that will be filled with highlights and Post-it notes.
It has been a game changer in boosting my confidence to navigate conflicts and assist others in doing the same. Although setting boundaries can sometimes make our world feel smaller, this book offers strategies to expand that world and engage in conversations with people and ideas I previously hesitated to approach. It has also changed the way I view polarization and those with differing ideologies, improving my peace of mind.
We can’t solve a problem we can’t face. This book will not only enhance your professional and personal life, but it will also help you become a better human being! I loved it so much, that I will be leading a book club series for DEI advocates and professionals. So thrilled to hear there are so many committed to building bridges! Unity!
