Are you sick of hearing about the "divisive" time we live in? Me too!
Tarek Mounib shares how to foster sincere dialogue and better understand people with viewpoints different than your own. Tarek's tips were learned on his journey with an unlikely group of U.S. travelers to the Middle East. He captured this experience in his film Free Trip to Egypt to help people see the power that sincere listening and simple human connection have in overcoming "divisive" worldviews.
Today’s conversation will not only inspire you but give you the tools to become part of the solution.
If you enjoyed hearing how human connection can change the world, you’ll love my conversation with Leon Logothetis. Leon travels the world relying solely on the kindness of strangers, which he pays back in unexpected, inspiring ways. Listen to Leon on Live Inspired Podcast ep. 136.
