From friendships to Facebook to far-off countries, what do we do when our lives seem mired in conflict? How do we find connection when our differences are constantly on display? If you are tired of the anxiety, frustration, and fear that pervade your connections with other people, both online and in real life then today’s episode is for you!
Today, Mary is joined by co-hosts of the wildly popular “Pantsuit Politics” podcast - Sarah Steward Holland and Beth Silvers. Also, authors of the brand new book, “Now What? How to Move Forward When We’re Divided (About Basically Everything),” Sarah and Beth prioritize curiosity over the conflict that often drives political conversations.
On today’s episode, Mary, Sarah, and Beth dive into the transformative power of hard conversation as they tackle:

Ways to explore shared values within your community
-
The importance of understanding your work as a citizen in a diverse country

Why you should hold lightly those things that are beyond your control around the world
