A Balm for Politics Anxiety with Guest Chris Niebauer, Ph.D.

  • Summary

  • America has a big problem. Most Americans feel their problems will be solved if the political party they prefer is the party in charge. But in this delicate conversation between Lisa and her friend Chris Niebauer, Ph,D., they point to the bigger problem of a nation divided. When we engage in “othering,” of any kind, we are training ourselves away from our most natural human capacities for empathy and compassion toward all people. And the tragedy is that you can’t erase empathy from your heart in only that selective way. If you’re training yourself out of that capacity, you risk losing it across the board. Lisa and Chris share the perspective that any kind of “othering” is harmful to all parties – to the party being hated, and equally harmful to the party doing the hating. An inspiring and healing conversation!
