We all have a good heart and we all deserve to be trusted. Today’s Well Source is Bill de la Cruz. Bill is an exceptional mediator and leader who has been guiding individuals and groups through the process of personal transformation for more than 30 years. He is passionate about helping individuals and groups build self-awareness, enhance relationships, and folstor positive and sustainable personal growth. His approach to bias work grew out of his own experiences attending hundreds of self-help trainings and self-help books that instructed him to “do the work”. However, they failed to define what “the work” should look like. From this, he has developed daily practices that continue to support his personal growth and self-awareness, and he is committed to sharing these with others.  This Podcast Covers: The “why” behind ending stereotypes, division, and judgements  Doing your own work instead of blaming others Using self awareness and critical self reflection to have productive conversations Showing up with vulnerability Developing daily practices  Understanding the difference between intentions and impact Developing strategies to let go of judgements and biases that lead to shame and blame Addressing situations that make you feel judged Finding the origination point of your biases  Recognizing the narratives that drive your behavior  Avoiding the defend, justify, or fix conversations Healing from trauma Resources: Website: Bill de la Cruz: Belonging and Inclusion Thought Leader Book: Finding the Origination Point: Understanding Our Biases to Create a More Peaceful World Podcast: Origination Point You can email Bill at [email protected]
