Text Us Your Feedback! (Likes, Dislikes, Guest/Conversation Recommendations). As per a CBS news poll, 70% of the public believe that we are incapable of solving problems because we are so DIVIDED. So what does that mean for us as a species? Imminent doom?Well, I sat down recently for a panel discussion on our show The ManKind Podcast to clarify if and how it might be possible to begin the healing process.Key takeaways from this episode: Many today have found their identity based on what they are AGAINST instead of what they are FOR.  A social phenomenon called Schismogenesis.In the past, we were more likely to disagree without the need to dehumanize the other person and consider them "Evil" simply because we disagreed with their views and opinions.My triggers are often the key to discovering how I can do my healing in relation to how those I can't entirely agree with fire me up.That "Bridge Building" isn't about finding "Common ground" with those we disagree with. It's about being able to disagree and debate in a healthy way that doesn't villainize the other.If you are committed to healing divides, then you must be willing to change your opinion/stance on that which you are debating.Follow Benjamin DancerWebsite: https://www.benjamindancer.com/Blog - Embracing My Triggers: https://www.benjamindancer.com/the-old-man/2022/8/5/embracing-my-triggersFollow Jordan BowmanJordan's Website: https://jbowman.org/journeymenJourneymen Triangle: https://journeymentriangle.org/Additional ResourcesSubscribe/Rate/Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: >>>HERE<<<To The ManKind Podcast to stay in the loop with powerful figures in the world of Men's Work.Find A Men's Circle Near You: https://mkpusa.org/mens-groupWith over 1000+ Men's Circles worldwide, men are waiting to welcome you into a kind, supportive and safe brotherhood of men.
