Trailer for the Us Podcast w/ Jeff Burningham
Jeff Burningham is starting a podcast and asking the questions: What can we learn from the people around us? How do we make a difference? 100% of us are flawed but 99.7% (or thereabouts;) are good, really good & have much to teach each one of us. No matter our differences, we are ALL a lot more alike than we often realize. A goal of this podcast is to elicit more compassion & less comparing to those around us. Another is to eradicate fear; we too often let mistakes of the past & concern for an unknown future destroy our happiness & stunt our progress moving forward. These are the stories of people you may or may not have heard of that will change your life for the better.
