In this special episode of the Power of Partnership Podcast, host Cherri Jacobs Pruitt speaks with Dr. Riane Eisler and summit director Gina Miltiadou about the upcoming Peace Begins at Home Summit (October 29, 2025). Together, they explore how peace must be redefined—not just as the absence of war, but as the presence of care, equity, and mutual respect, beginning in our homes. Drawing from neuroscience and decades of research, Riane explains how early childhood experiences shape entire cultures, while Gina shares the summit’s origin story, diverse global speaker lineup, and vision for real, lasting change.

Listeners will hear inspiring stories, eye-opening statistics, and a clear call to action: to replace systems of domination with cultures of partnership. With over 20 speakers from 13 countries—including peacebuilders, survivors, youth leaders, and cultural icons—this global virtual gathering will offer both inspiration and practical tools to transform relationships, communities, and the world.
