The Data Binge

42 | Anchoring Humanity in Compassionate Conversation


Listen Later

Rodney Campbell and Keith Richardson are hosts of the More in Common Podcast, where their work around guest discussions, focuses on amplifying voices, and abstracting stories that leverage real human experiences. Keith and Rodney are professional conversationalists, but in the context of having really tough conversations, and having them well. As a result of their podcast they also launched a consulting business, where they help organizations engage in the fundamental fact that we all have more in common than that which divides us, and the basis for this, is anchoring humanity in compassionate conversation.

Keith and Rodney are also providing workshops in the community, through the National Conversation Project, in Cleveland and Los Angeles, and they are releasing apparel that will be donated to causes focused on reforming criminal justice.

Items we discuss:

-anxiety, and how we each attempt to deal with in in our lives

-the nuances of maintaining mental health, setting goals, and competing with yourself

-the challenges of being who we are - from the tyranny of "should", to creating safe spaces for engaging dialogues, to the true power of execution vs planning, and "showing up"

-how to have better conversations, and why it's not about you, but about the lived experience of the person you are engaging

Thank you for listening!
