I'd say about 50% of our population is going to be really, really upset. There's something about that that does not sit right for me at all, I want the disconnection to go away, I'm mourning connection hugely. And I just think no matter what happens, we must figure out a way to move towards connection in our society. I think the root of a lot of our issues has to do with language.

Key Points Discussed:

  •  Much of the way that we're talking to one another today, especially on the political level, we could say all of it and still hold our truth without having all the judgment, and there just seems to be that on steroids right now. (2:12)
  • That's the person's feelings, so that's a real thing. It is what it is, and the need there is wanting people to see things similarly as you. (4:50)
  • You put a group of people together in a room, inevitably they're not going to see eye to eye on things. But when that would happen, what we would do is, we would slow everyone down and make sure that everyone would reflect on the other person's needs before they comment. (6:22)
  • When you can do that, then miraculously strategies, ideas that maybe never surfaced before, can actually rise up. I've seen it happen many times, it all starts though, with hearing one another. (8:23)
