Lee Mars and Justin Zorn argue that we need to start paying attention to some of the negative consequences that come from being around too much noise. Join them as they talk to notable guests like former Attorney General Eric Holder, restorative Justice Leader Daniel Serid, and other notable people about how to make sense of this moment. Listen to season two of some of my best friends are wherever you get your podcast.
We're surrounded by noise. That "noise" can be actual sounds - but also other annoyances and distractions that make it hard for us to concentrate or think clearly. And it's only getting worse - we're all being bombarded with more sirens, more pings, more chatter, more information. And then there are our internal monologues. Silence is just harder to come by.
Leigh Marz and Justin Zorn (co-authors of Golden: The Power of Silence in a World of Noise) join Dr Laurie Santos to discuss the benefits of silence and how we can all seek out more moments of quiet and recognise their value.
