You may have heard the popular saying that some things cannot be taught, they must be learned or experienced. 

Some things will only become clear when we engage in it ourselves. When we give ourselves the opportunity to be enlightened, to shift our mindset, to open up our frame of reference, to disrupt our usual ways of doing things.

In this episode Michel shares an experience she recently had, which brings home the message that somethings cannot be taught, they must be experienced.

Michel attended a three day long wedding celebration including Hindu, non-religious and a Christian elements.

Michel labels the event as a masterclass in how we should be consider living. It highlights the level of openness that we need and the way that love  cuts across religious, racial and other boundaries. 

Carefully designed experiences allow us to shift from being quick to reject, resent or fight against ideas to authentically connecting with each other. When we engage and share stories we learn how we are actually so much more similar than we are different. We learn to appreciate our differences.

These opportunities for engagements, and experiences that bring people together from disparate places,  to recognize that we are a lot more similar than we are different are among the recommendations Michel makes in this episode.
