The PUSH podcast is designed to help us show up differently and push through in life while having empathy, understanding, and seeing things from other people's perspectives. To do this, we have to hold even the uncomfortable conversations that some people would want to simply push aside.

Lately, we have been talking about social injustice, racial inequality, and the pandemic. We believe that these are conversations that we all must have if we are to heal and mend as a society. We all must strive to see issues from the other person's perspective. What happens when the shoe is on the other foot?

In light of this, we discuss something that happened when we were enjoying our 16th anniversary. We encountered an older white gentleman who walked into the beachfront condo we had booked and were staying at and told Eddie that he wasn't supposed to be there.

We use it as a learning experience on how we can all build consciousness to understand what other people go through every day. Once we expand our belief systems, we not only have more empathy, but we win in all areas of life, including in our businesses.

Click on the Play Button to listen as we discuss what happened and what we can learn from it, and why we must continue having uncomfortable conversations as a society.
