When the Child in Me Sees the Child in You

What would happen if we lightened up with one another just enough to see the tender, vulnerable human being behind the bluster? A conversation about treating one another with kindness and truthfulness and letting go of our certainty about each others' intentions, with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace.

Here’s Episode 96 of Turning Towards Life, a weekly live 30 minute conversation hosted by Thirdspace in which Justin Wise and Lizzie Winn dive deep into big questions of human living. Find us on FaceBook to watch live and join in the lively conversation on this episode. We’re also on YouTube, and as a podcast on Apple, Google and Spotify

When we forget that other people are - just like us - often suffering, confused, longing and vulnerable, we can easily hold them to impossible standards. And when we do this, all kinds of conflicts, differences, and irritations gain a rigidity that makes them hard for us to deal with. What would happen if we softened our stance enough to see the human behind the bluster? And, in doing so, revealed our own messy humanity too? 

Join us for a conversation about looking below the surface in our everyday interactions, which begins with a source from Alain de Botton's book 'The Course of Love', which you can find here: https://wp.me/p4Tynu-jN
