Building Real Unity with Nava Kavelin

What if unity isn’t a lofty ideal, but a daily practice rooted in how we speak, act and build together?

This week, Simran is joined by writer, podcaster, and spiritual thinker, Nava Kavelin, for a conversation that grounds the Baha’i teachings of oneness and justice in real, everyday action.

Together, they reflect on the collective exhaustion so many are feeling and how spiritual frameworks can help us move from fragmentation to belonging. Nava invites us to imagine a world shaped by human education, universal language, and shared values.

Through stories, questions, and personal reflections, Simran and Nava explore how consultation, community-building, and consistent alignment between values and actions can transform all of us

This conversation reminds us that small, sincere acts of connection matter. That unity isn’t something we wait for - it’s something that we practice together.
