Finding common ground during divisive times with Shola Richards

from Powerful Stuff · host Meredith Baker

Ok y'all. This is one of my most vulnerable and powerful episodes to date. On this episode, I have author and keynote speaker Shola Richards, who is on a mission to help everyone around the world treat each other better. Shola not only wrote the book Civil Unity, about how we can have kind and productive discourse around polarizing topics, but he has also testified in front of the House of Representatives on how to bring more civility to congress. Shola and I dive into what we can individually do and how we can think about approaching difficult conversations with people with love, kindness, and curiosity. I also share a few personal examples I've been sitting with and Shola and I work through them in real time. If you're feeling like you want to transform the feelings of fear and separation in this election season to opportunities to heal and find common ground, this episode is for you!To find out more about Shola and his book Civil Unity, you can check out his website: sholarichards.com or follow him on IG
