“Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear… all of which have the potential to turn a life around.” — Leo Buscaglia

In this episode, I reflect on a panel discussion I participated in this past weekend and how quickly empathy and compassion can disappear when we become more focused on defending our identities than caring for one another. As always, we begin with a ten-minute meditation. Enjoy the show.
