A Loving Disruption with Elena Kunkel

Elena Kunkel 1 Episodes Aug 21, 2026

A Loving Disruption explores the idea that the opposite of depression is not happiness but expression.

Each week, she talks with artists, founders, neuroscientists, somatic practitioners, coaches, philosophers, astrologers, and others who understand what brings a person online and what shuts them down.
