These days are hard. For all of us - regardless of who you are; regardless of your political affiliation; regardless of your economic status; regardless of your age, etc. So what is your frame of mind as you look at the world around you? Do you simply shut down and accept the negativity, or are you interested in trying to be a source of light and kindness? If the latter, how do you go about doing that when it feels as if everyone else around you chooses the former? This episode is for you as Kate and Kellie explore different ways for all of us to look at the world with kinder eyes.

Additional Quotes & References
Andrew Futrell: "…to disagree with someone’s politics or decisions - that’s extremely normal, and sometimes necessary.
What’s also concerning is how quick people are to dismiss anyone who disagrees, refusing even to have a conversation. And when some do engage, it’s often not with facts or clarity—but with emotion and assumptions that cloud real dialogue.
We can (and should) hold our leaders accountable. But we also need to stay grounded in facts, be open to conversation, and not lose our values in the process. It’s okay to disagree—just don’t forget how to listen, think critically, and speak with decency.”
Abraham Lincoln "With Malice Towards None"
“With malice towards none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right … let us strive on to finish the work we are in – to bind up the nation’s wounds…”
