Local Author Molly Salans about her debut novel A Break In The Fog
On Talk of The Bay on Tues Oct 21st, at 5 pm, host George Cadman interviewed local author, psychotherapist and Family Constellation facilitator, Molly Salans. They discussed her psychological thriller, A Break in The Fog, about a family in turmoil and a dangerous cult, which explores how faith can be used to heal, but also to abuse, and how love and family is what matters most in the end.
Molly and George also talked about: cults more generally (including the cult of Trump); what draws someone into a cult or controlling system; the longing to belong – and how that deep human need can lead either toward love and connection or toward control and manipulation; how to awaken oneself and others to mind control; how compassion and understanding can free us from fear and polarization both personally and collectively; and the power of creativity, community, and ceremony to restore love and empathy in a divided world.
Deeply involved in Santa Cruz’s creative and spiritual communities, Molly Salans reminds us that compassion is not just a feeling – it’s a path forward in healing ourselves and our world.
For more than thirty years Molly has guided people through the landscapes of grief, love, and transformation—blending psychology, spirituality, and creative expression. Through her Constellation circles and community gatherings, she helps people uncover the hidden love that lives beneath pain and conflict. abreakinthefog.comPublished on 3 days, 15 hours ago
