In this episode, Wynne Leon is with co-host, Vicki Atkinson, and we are talking about the latest book from author David Brooks, How to Know a Person.

We talk about his great encouragement to be vulnerable enough to be seen and his image of each of us as a creative artist who has a unique way of seeing the world.

And we dive into the methods that help us listen well.

We have a great conversation around what it takes to tell our own stories.

Vicki also shares with us the wisdom she learned listening to David Brooks give a commencement speech when she was a faculty member. She explains why his approach was so much more meaningful than many of the others she heard in her 40 years in academia.

This is a great episode about how we can be intentional about getting to know others. We know you’ll love it.
