Bridging Social Gaps: Jared Glenn's Take on Polarization

I think the first thing he's really talking about is not buying into this trap of tearing everybody down, but really trying to build confidence, and that starts with yourself.
Ever wondered how to keep peace with family members who have starkly different political views? In this thought-provoking episode of 'A Little Help For Our Friends', hosts Jacqueline Trumbull and Dr. Kibby McMahon sit down with Jared Glenn, a former professional fighter turned historian and youth advocate. Jared brings a wealth of experience to the table, sharing his journey from the boxing ring to academia and community work through the All Stars Project.
He offers practical advice on how to bridge the social divides that seem to be growing wider every day. From challenging our own biases to having tough conversations with empathy, Jared's insights are both eye-opening and actionable. He also touches on the pitfalls of social media activism and stresses the importance of gathering information from diverse sources. One key takeaway is his emphasis on building confidence and focusing on common ground rather than differences.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone struggling to maintain relationships in today's polarized climate.
