Braver Angels Connect in Healthy Ways Across Divides with CEO Maury Giles

How can we talk with, learn about, and relate to people with very different ideas, beliefs, and views from ourselves in ways that reduce our stress levels and increase our burnout resilience? Maury Giles is the CEO of Braver Angels, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to depolarization, empowering people to have calmer, more productive and respectful interactions with people who think differently from each other. Ramsey and Maury discuss what it’s like to be a “Red” or “Blue,” why discovering someone’s life experience is a breakthrough to finding common ground, and how Braver Angels creates opportunities for people to have real discussions. Ramsey also directly asks Maury’s advice on how to navigate the political nature of the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement moment. If you dread those holiday meals with extended family or have tense moments at work with your opinionated colleagues, this is a great episode to learn how to lower the temperature of those interactions … and your blood pressure.
