I think in our everyday world, I mean we also encounter saints you know, not necessarily canonized, but you know in my own personal experience I can classify some people or some friends or some of my ancestors, as you know saints they try to live life to the fullest and they really try to keep the faith and they prayed all the time they went to church, all the time they taught us to faith.
Imagine growing up in a culture where the essence of humanity is deeply interconnected. In this episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles sits down with BJ Gonzalvo, the insightful author of 'Gift of Kapwa: The Filipino Core Value of Shared Humanity Shared with All of Humanity'. BJ's journey is a rich tapestry of personal growth, cultural heritage, and the pursuit of self-love.
Raised in the Philippines by immigrant parents, BJ's life story is a testament to the power of community and shared experiences. He delves into the Filipino concept of Kapwa, which emphasizes our interconnectedness and mutual respect. As a psychologist, veteran, and father, BJ brings a unique perspective on how these values shape our relationships and personal success. He also touches on the impact of technology on our connections and what we can learn from aboriginal cultures.
With reflections from the serene Pacific Northwest, BJ's conversation with Valeria is both enlightening and heartwarming. Tune in to explore how personal stories can bridge gaps and foster a deeper understanding of our shared humanity.
