HOW TO TAKE A COMPLIMENT: A Live Stream Party Remix

11/2/2020

0 Comments

 
In case you missed the big news (yes election, yes covid numbers, but the other big news) - this podcast just had its 1st anniversary. To celebrate, we released a Greatest Hits episode, threw a party, AND renamed/rebranded the dang thing.

If you missed the party, fear not! We harvested some of the best moments and arranged them in this thoughtful audio wreath for you to enjoy.

We were so happy and grateful to have some of our favorite humans join us as guests and as audience members on Friday to celebrate, as we said, our one-year anniversary as a podcast. Drew and Candace sang us a couple of awesome songs. Bill Konigsberg, Jim Natal, and Matt Ruff read the perfect passages, and some of our smartest pals talked over how to save the world.
We also made the big announcement that we are re-branding this very podcast. After much consideration, we felt that a new name would serve our audience and get our message out into the world a bit better. Welcome to the HERE.together Podcast.

Key Take Aways: 
  • Take compliments and positive feedback graciously. Learn to integrate them into your self-conception. It’s OK to know all your faults AND to know that others can see the truth of your gifts.
  • We all crave fairness but to create a workable community, we might need to give each other support while we reach across divides. We will not get reciprocal love and empathy in all our interactions.
Do a Science:
  • Send a message or a card to someone who supports a different political candidate than you. Let them know you will still be their neighbor, family member, or co-worker, no matter who wins. 
    Pro-tip: Do this while still remaining 100% true to your own values.
