In today's episode, I discuss a few issues I have with Social Media platforms and their users:

  • Content permeating into platforms it wasn't originally designed for, and
  • The "quick and cheap" opinion culture makes it difficult to understand others and become a more knowledgeable, wise human being

In today's episode, I talk about the importance of establishing and maintaining healthy friendships, regardless of how much or what you agree on. Disagreeing can be a good thing for you, or for another, if it challenges you to think differently or understand life through their eyes.

First segment of Feedback Friday!

In this episode, I reference listener feedback I received on a couple different podcasts so far. I specifically look at:

  • Off Limits: the political divisiveness in our country is unnecessary, and how we can do our part individually to help bridge that divide with those we don't always agree with.
  • Wisconsin Wednesday: the Big Ten's decision to "postpone" football is only for political reasons, and there are lasting political and economic impacts that stem from their controversial decision.

Follow up to last week's episode--talking about intentionally doing some of the things you don't want to do, for the sake of your own well-being. Be diligent in your pursuit of health and wellness--even if that means frequently doing the things that don't line up with your "mood".
