Episode 32: Your Political System Won't Fix Your Life - I Went To The DNC And It Felt Hopeful And Sad And Unifying And Discouraging All At Once

8/22/2024
I got an invite that I couldn't turn down... I took a last-minute trip to Chicago this week to attend the DNC, and I walked away with A LOT of feelings. I imagine the RNC felt similar—unifying, discouraging, hopeful, hopeless. What I was mostly reminded of was that our political systems can't save us. They're too unstable. Not to mention the fact that they're guaranteed to change every 4-or-so years!! I get vulnerable on this episode. I know that we've been working through the 6 pillars this summer, and they're hard practices to hold. I had a hard time living it out this week. I touch on Pillar 5: We are not naive. We know that walking with those who disagree can be messy, challenging, and even infuriating. But we believe the alternative—a world fractured by division—is far worse. We're not too far gone. We don't have to continue to live in a rage-fueled society that feels like our only hope is in politics. We can vote better. We can do better. We can be better. . . . . .

Episode 31: Chasing Civility Over Silence In The Age Of Rage - Pillar 4

8/15/2024
I’ve been trying to lean into what’s been happening in society and culture as we unpack our 6 pillars. This episode is unpacking Pillar 4: We chase civility, not silence. We reject the false choice between conviction and kindness. We can disagree fiercely, but with respect and a commitment to finding common ground. Let me tell you, choosing civility is usually harder and will cost you more than choosing silence. But it is the MORE REWARDING choice. I believe I chose civility over silence when I posted a prayer for President Trump after the assassination attempt last month. That cost me followers, but I don’t regret it because seeing the humanity in someone who went through something traumatic was the right thing to do, rather than staying silent to keep my follower count up. So how in the world do we make the hard choice to respectfully disagree while still engaging in conversation? Here’s a few ideas: Think before you speak. Don’t assume. Seek out shared values. Take stock of the voices you’re paying attention to. . . . . . Listen here for an overview of all 6 pillars: https://pod.link/1249486443/episode/17ea0d74dace025534324e77893ca97d . . . . .

Episode 30: New VP Announcement Means New Thing To Disagree On & Pillar 3: Walking Alongside, Not Ahead Or Behind

8/8/2024
We’re unpacking the six pillars of our motto: Don’t stand on issues, walk with people. This episode focuses on the third pillar: We walk alongside, not ahead or behind. We acknowledge the complexities of human experience. We understand that the path to a better future is paved with diverse perspectives. This is where it gets hard. We can work towards having civil and honoring conversations, but how do we actually walk alongside someone—especially when the disagreements just feel too big? We’re going to break down what it looks like to walk ahead, walk behind, and what you can do to walk alongside instead. . . . . .

Episode 29: Being Offended By The Olympics Opening Ceremonies And Unpacking Pillar 2 - We Hold Conviction Alongside Compassion

8/1/2024
We’re unpacking the six pillars of our motto: Don’t stand on issues, walk with people. This episode focuses on the second pillar: We hold conviction alongside compassion. The Olympics Opening Ceremony has been a HOT topic, especially among Christians. People were angry, sad, offended, confused—a lot of things. And honestly, I was surprised by the outrage. I’m digging deep and unpacking my thoughts in the context of our second pillar. So how do we do this conviction and compassion thing? Is it possible? I believe it is! Here are a few tips: Hold a generous view of the other person in your mind Be curious and gentle with other’s stories Be confident in your conviction Listen to the episode on Pillar 1 here: https://pod.link/1249486443/episode/fad4bb481248713cd5589e08fb4066bf Listen here for an overview of all 6 pillars: https://pod.link/1249486443/episode/17ea0d74dace025534324e77893ca97d Find Dan McClellan on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/maklelan/ . . . . .

Episode 28: Don’t Stand On Issues, Walk With People Series: Pillar 1 - Seeking Understanding Not Victory

7/25/2024
We’re unpacking the six pillars of our motto: Don’t stand on issues, walk with people. This episode focuses on the first pillar: We seek understanding not victory. We prioritize listening and learning over winning arguments. We believe both are possible. We hold our beliefs fiercely, but we hold them with open hands, not clenched fists. In the age of TikTok, X, and a 24-hour news cycle, it’s easy to feel like an expert on topics we actually don’t know much about. And when we feel like an expert on something, seeking understanding can feel pointless, because we already know everything, right? We’ve got to get to the place where we know that we don’t know everything. And that’s okay. So how do we seek understanding? Here are a few ideas: Be an active listener. (Hint: it’s impossible to be an active listener on social media, so maybe have those conversations offline.) Limit distractions. Leave your phone in another room. Remember that just because someone stops talking, doesn’t mean you need to start. Flip the funnel: ask open-ended questions to gain a fuller picture of what the other person believes Remember that the other person and their beliefs are not a problem to solve. And a single conversation isn’t going to change that. . . . . .

Episode 22: I’m Spilling All The Secrets That You Want To Know About My NEW BOOK Reconnected PLUS A Sneak Peek Of The First Chapter

6/6/2024
This book means a lot to me. I put my life on hold for it. I put a lot into it. I didn’t look at a screen for 7 weeks. I lived with monks at a monastery. And I lived with an Amish family on their farm. And then I lived with my family at home. I didn’t disconnect. I reconnected. I’m not unpacking everything in the book today. But I am answering some of your questions! . . . . . Find Micah Kandros’ work here: https://www.micahkandrosdesign.com/ . . . . .

5/23/2024
Join me, Heather, Seanna, and Sohaila (and our friend Jacinda!) as we work through some BIG feelings about the wedding in 4 days. What’s it like to be the father of the bride, the mother of the bride, the sister of the bride, and the bride herself? Listen and find out. This is raw and authentic. With lots of tears. And there are nuggets that come out of this that I think are applicable to every season of life. This might be the most memorable conversation I have with my daughter Sohaila.
