233. Fulton Sheen, Hostage Negotiator Chris Voss, and Reaching the Unreachable
Manage episode 470758815 series 2974338
How do you help people who isolate themselves? "Hikikomori" is a worldwide phenomena--where young men (usually ages 18 to 25) isolate themselves. They tend to talk to no one and not have jobs. In Japan, there are 1,200,000 people like this, and there are many in other nations, including the U.S. These people don't have goals and they don't have relationships. Can they be helped?
It takes a lot of work, but popular Catholic Bishop Fulton Sheen, and professional terrorist, and kidnapper-negotiator, Chris Voss, appear to have found a way.
If someone you love is in this situation, and you'd like to help, but you don't know how, this might be an answer.

Note: I'm not endorsing any of the above. I'm just saying that it's worth looking into.
