This week during a podcast interview, Elon Musk surprised some listeners when he said, "The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy." While further examination of the context of his statement is helpful, clarity about the value of empathy and its powerful role in our homes, neighborhoods, communities, and the world is vital. This week we're joined by author and speaker Molly Bice Jackson whose new book, "The Commodity of Connection," shares her experience losing a child and how the human connections in her circle literally saved her life. Join us for this beautiful conversation about empathy, connection, and the simple ways each of us can make the world a better place, one by one.
Check out Molly's new book here.
