The political polarization that exists in our country and our world is deeply concerning to me and so many others. As I travel around to different parts of the United States and the globe, one specific topic where we actually seem to have real common ground is our collective concern about the division, and the forces within society, media, social media, politics, and more that seem to exacerbate this dynamic. On this episode, I address this complex and emotional issue in light of the recent presidential inauguration here in the US. I offer some thoughts and perspectives, as well as some specific ideas for how we can connect in a more productive and authentic way, especially with those who may see things differently than we do.

On this episode I had the honor and privilege of talking to my friend, Tyler Merritt, about his brand new book, This Changes Everything: A Surprisingly Funny Story about Race, Cancer, Faith, and Other Things We Don’t Talk About. Tyler’s wisdom, wit, depth, and insight are inspiring and important. In our conversation, we discuss the power of vulnerability, how proximity breeds empathy, why facing death can be both terrifying and liberating, the importance of keeping things in perspective, and why it’s essential to be real about how we feel.
