    One Thing To Make The World A Better Place

    en-gbSeptember 05, 2023

    Podcast Summary

    • Start making the world a better place with active listeningCommit to truly listening to others, ask questions, and be curious to expand understanding and experience new perspectives, fostering greater connection and empathy.

      Making the world a better place starts with active listening. It's easy to get caught up in the polarization of opinions and the frustration of disagreements, especially in the media. But if each of us commits to truly listening to others, asking questions, and being curious, we can expand our understanding and experience new perspectives. This doesn't mean we have to agree with everything we hear or watch, but rather that we keep an open mind and seek to understand where others are coming from. By doing so, we can foster greater connection and empathy, and potentially even find common ground. So today, let's all make a conscious effort to be better listeners. It's a simple act, but it has the power to make a big difference. And who knows, we might even discover some joy or new insights along the way. So join me in this mission, and let's make a promise to each other to listen and be curious today. And if you're in the UK, don't forget to vote for your favorite podcasts in the British Podcast Awards before the 5th of September.

    43 - Sylvia B: Have Faith in Yourself - An Interview with my Nana about Body Image on her 80th Birthday

    "I've gotta get old, I don't have to get old AND fat!"

     

    "It's okay if your body image isn't what the world thinks it should look like." 

    - Nana 

    God, I love my Nana. She's sharp, beautiful, and has such a quick tongue you won't BELIEVE some of the things she has to say in this interview. There's a point where I have to pause because I am laughing so hard. Actually, that happens a few times. 

    I went into this interview with the goal on gaining the perspective on how things have changed in the last 80 years. My Nana's truth is that they really haven't - especially when it comes to body image. She recalls being younger and feeling short and fat. She recalls feeling neglected by her mother. She recalls not fully feeling beautiful until she met my grandfather, getting her self-worth from a man who didn't exactly give her what she was looking for. But she got through it all. The trials, the tribulations, and she came out the other side feeling blessed and grateful for the life she has today. 

    It ended up being a much more personal interview than I expected ... but I am so glad my Nana was willing to open up and share all of this with you. "Have Faith," she says, over and over. You will get through this little thing called life.
