Nicole J. Phillips: Why Kindness is Contagious

from Our Future is Kind Podcast · host Michael G Neece, Nicole J. Phillips

Meet Nicole J. Phillips. She is a speaker, author, chaplain, and host of The Kindness Podcast. She joins host Michael G. Neece to talk about the power of reframing your thoughts, practicing kindness during crisis, and her move from North Dakota to North Carolina after a major life shake-up. Nicole opens up about her early battles with depression, her husband's near-death car crash, the joy of rediscovering life, and how she believes kindness saved her. They also discuss what it means to tether your mind like a leash, how kindness doesn't mean ignoring pain, and why joy, laughter, and The Amazing Race matter more than ever.   ⭐⭐⭐⭐ How to connect with Nicole ⭐⭐⭐⭐ https://nicolejphillips.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/phillipsnicolej/ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐   🧠 Nicole's Mind Leash Kindness Challenge Practice thinking about what you're thinking about. Set a timer to check in with yourself 2–3 times during the day. If your thoughts wander to fear, self-criticism, or judgment, gently "click the leash" and redirect them to kindness, gratitude, or curiosity.   ⭐Inspiration and depictions of kindness in the world: ○ Read Workplace Positivity by Nicole J.
