Staying Kind During Conflict - with Brian Groves
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
How do you normally react when you hear or read something that you strongly disagree with? Most of us have a similar response—our blood pressure goes up, we get tense, and our body responds about the same way it responds to any other threat.
But is it possible to have discussions—whether in person or online—with people who disagree with us and not feel threatened? Is it possible to value and respect a person while strongly disagreeing with them? This is what a community project called United as Neighbors is trying to accomplish.
In this episode, Brian Groves, a community member involved with United as Neighbors, shares how he has seen positive changes in his own life by getting involved with this project and using some of the ideas and tools shared in this episode.
As mentioned in the episode, you can check out The Joyful Roberts Group YouTube channel here.
The Joyful Roberts Group is a real estate team led by Daniel Roberts, host of The Giving Town.
