Ron Kurtz is speaking to a group of students in 2001 and talking about his mission which he calls his “main job,” a lifetime mission to inspire people to see what is possible and to provide a wider range of freedom in their lives. He quotes Chogyam Trungpa: “The basic work of health professionals in general, and of psychotherapists in particular, is to become full human beings and to inspire full human-beingness in other people who feel starved about their lives.”
