Kind Lips & Self-Kindness: How One Lip Balm Is Building a Kinder World

Our Future Is Kind Episode 75  What if a simple lip balm could teach self-kindness, kindness to others, and even transform a classroom?  In this episode of Our Future is Kind, Michael Neece talks with Joshua Newman, founder of Kind Lips and Kind Lips Classroom, about how small, intentional acts of kindness can ripple out to create a kinder world. Joshua shares his personal journey of learning to love himself, the inspiration behind Kind Lips, and how the classroom program is helping students build self-awareness, confidence, and empathy.  From high school students to adults, Joshua explains how self-kindness and daily reminders to be kind can fundamentally change behavior and community culture. This episode is full of practical examples, inspiration, and tools for creating real-world impact in schools, workplaces, and daily life.  Kindness Challenge: This week, practice kindness by speaking one intentional, positive message to someone else each day and pair it with a small reminder for yourself to be kind, like a sticky note or a gesture of self-care.  Stay Inspired : Stay inspired by connecting with others and noticing opportunities for small acts of kindness. Joshua recommends journaling, observing moments of beauty, helping someone without expectation, or using playful rituals like a lip balm reminder to integrate kindness into daily life. These small, repeated actions reinforce compassion both inward and outward.  Verified Links  Website: https://kindlips.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshuaneumann/  Please visit our website to get more information: http://ourfutureiskind.com/  Michael G.
