“Hope is a function of struggle.” – Brene Brown
“The struggle is real.” We see this in social media, on mugs, on t-shirts. It’s overused and often shows a lack of understanding of actual struggle.
In this episode we dig deep into the concept of true struggle and our need for empathy. When we ask “How are you?” we need to really mean it. Beyond individually, empathy is necessary in order for us to be able to provide help and advocate collectively.
America is a country in deep pain. We need to create safe spaces. Allow for different journeys. Be open to difficult conversations. We need to build collective empathy.
Join us as we take a closer look at what true struggle is and how we can help.
