Show Notes

In this episode, Ron, Gregg, and Dave explore the variety of ways to sharpen our thinking and soften our empathy. Becoming a better citizen goes beyond knowing our position on issues. We must have a perspective, but add to that better skills of caring about others, listening to others, and managing our emotional life. Can we hope to discover common goals?  Not “either/or”. How about teaching ourselves how to achieve “both/and”.
