In this episode of Changing Minds, I speak with James Kimmel Jr., J.D., lawyer, author of The Science of Revenge, and Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Yale School of Medicine. James is a leading researcher on revenge, addiction, and forgiveness, and he was the first to identify compulsive revenge seeking as an addiction. He developed the behavioral and brain disease models of revenge addiction as public health approaches to prevent violence. James is also the creator of the Nonjustice System and the Miracle Court App, innovative tools that help people manage grievances, control revenge cravings, and embrace forgiveness.

We also explore the difference between true justice and revenge, the neuroscience of forgiveness, and how forgiveness can rewire our brains. If you've ever struggled with anger, resentment, or the temptation to seek revenge, this conversation will provide you with powerful insights into how to move from pain toward peace.
