Description

Is familiarity, not fear, what's holding us back from true change?

Wendi Park and Johan Heinrichs dive into this thought-provoking idea while reflecting on their conversation with David and Shannon Steeves. They discuss the richness that comes from stepping outside comfort zones and embracing diversity, drawing from Johan's personal experiences in culturally varied communities and Wendi's encounters in the Middle East. The conversation challenges listeners to break out of echo chambers and engage with different perspectives and communities, emphasizing that growth and love flourish through discomfort.
