In this episode, Armand DiMele and co-host Stephanie D’Ambra delve into the complex topic of revenge. They explore its origins, psychological implications, and societal consequences, questioning whether seeking vengeance truly brings satisfaction or merely perpetuates unhappiness.

The discussion encourages listeners to reflect on their own experiences with revenge and the potential for healing through forgiveness and understanding rather than retaliation.
