Our identities are beautiful, resilient and dynamic. But sometimes, our attachment to them can contribute to unhealthy polarization. In this episode Jennifer talks with facilitator, advisor, and author Gabe Wilson about how to relate more fluidly to our multiple identities with this question: what do you stand for?
As an African American/Brazilian Gabe shares pivotal life experiences that clarified his own answer. He reveals how he created more freedom and fairness inside himself and his transformational conflict work. He shares-
- Two key principles to overcoming tension and conflict
- Why trust is an important outcome (but unnecessary requirement) of risky conversations
- How to uncover bigger identities that can help solve our hardest problems
Join Jennifer and Gabe for a heart-opening conversation on how to relate to our identities to create more fairness and freedom.
