As election season looms, tensions will naturally start to rise. This year especially has brought with it new challenges and obstacles in the form of the current Coronavirus pandemic, which has only amplified our need for strong and compassionate leadership.  

What I feel we’ve lost in the face of disagreements that are politically charged, is the ability to communicate respectfully. It feels so much of the time, we approach confrontation with a need to be right, rather than a desire to listen. In this episode, I’m going to be discussing how social media has played a role in the exacerbation of strong emotions, why I believe we should abolish the ‘partisan’ system in US politics, and why we should be more open to each other’s viewpoints.    

I also share some of my experiences within the Real Estate field, touching on how Covid-19 has affected both tenants and landlords, as well as my personal opinion on these disputes. It’s going to be one you’ll definitely want to engage with, so join me on Episode 20 of Joyful Souls to hear more!
