LIFE IS NOT THE INTERNET

from The Karen Kenney Show

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about how the internet has trained ​so many people to believe that every thought ​they have deserves a comment, ​their ​opinion, or a post​... And why that ​shit doesn’t ​really fly in real life. I ​t​ell a ​couple of stories about unsolicited opinions (​given both online and in person)​ and the emotional impact they can have​ on the receivers. I​ also share how ​you can start using ​your voice more thoughtfully​ by revisiting the “three gates” of communication​! These questions are simple, yet powerful: Is it true​? Is it kind​? Is it necessary​?​ And when put to good use, these suckers can save us all a lot of unnecessary suffering. So, here's my invitation to you ​(and reminder to myself) to pause before you speak, type, ​send, or hit publish​! ​Together, let's explore turning off the “comment section” in certain conversations, standing up against cruelty, and choosing to use our words as a force for good, ​both on and off the internet.​ ❤️ KAREN KENNEY BIO: Karen Kenney is a writer, speaker, podcaster, certified spiritual mentor, and coach.
