breaking cycles Featured The Brokenness Narrative (Part 4) 'Normal' survives through the pathology paradigm - the belief there’s one correct kind of mind. From schools to politics, this lens breeds shame, silences free speech, and punishes difference; costing us innovation, empathy, and our shared humanity.
