Stand Out Quotes From This Episode
We can become more than who we are through our connection with others.
Being in connection with people who were very different than me was almost safer than with people like me because I didn't have to be like them.
At the root of the climate crisis is the growth economy which at its roots are the need to be seen.
Heather Monro is a leadership coach, a former athlete, and a parent. She is a self-described passionate student of human connection. You can learn about her work at Bright Space Thinking.
She has always found great personal meaning through her connections as a young girl so this idea of leading a Sidewalk Talk chapter was in her DNA.
Hear about Heather's fears of being rejected on the sidewalk before her very first listening event.
None of those fears came true.
Instead, what surprised her, is that being in connection with people who are different felt really good because she was liberated from judgment.
Heather learns more about herself, but she gets a sense of being seen as a whole human being at the same time that she is listening.
Sidewalk Talk really challenges Heather's biases and social conditioning.
If you are moved by Heather's work and the work of Sidewalk Talk, consider investing monthly in Sidewalk Talk so we can keep our impact alive.
