WOWZA! I was blown away by where my chat with Dr. Shawne Duperon, the founder of Project Forgive and one of the world’s leading experts on forgiveness went. That’s right! Blown away…
And I am thrilled to welcome to The Autoimmune Hour my friend Dr. Shawne. In addition to Project Forgive, she founded ShawneTV; she is a winner of Six EMMY® awards, 28 EMMY® nominations, and her conflict resolution tool, The Apology (You’ll Never Receive)TM garnered the honor of a Nobel Peace Prize Nomination. 


Why the topic of forgiveness? Current studies have linked past traumas to playing a part in specific immune dysfunction. It is an accepted standard that too much stress adds to inflammation—a common component in autoimmune diagnoses. And general population research shows prolonged anger, hostility, and bitterness are linked to health risks like depression and heart disease.

So, in our time together, Dr. Shawne shares many “juicy” thought-provoking truths and ideas, including
• Why forgiveness isn’t what most people think, and what it really is;
• Tips on knowing yourself, your needs, staying present, and letting go;
• The five stages of forgiveness (Hint, ‘forgive and forget’ isn’t one of them);
• Triggers, boundaries, and how the words we use can change outcomes,
Plus, her world-famous conflict resolution tool “The Apology (You’ll Never Receive)TM,” and much more.
