Daniel Lurie on Changing Peoples Lives Oct 15, 2019

A philanthropist and president of Tipping Point Community, Daniel is the rare person that combines true idealism with real-world practicality. In this episode, we’ll learn about the current homelessness crisis in San Francisco and what we can do to give people the opportunity to change their lives. Daniel will show us how being optimistic and having mental strength is key to power through tough times.

“There’s a lot of misinformation out there. There’s a lot of people that say, ‘Oh, there’s a lot of people that don’t want help on the streets’. It’s not true, no one grows up saying, ‘I wanna be homeless when I’m older” - Daniel Lurie

“There are still a lot of good things happening around us and we need to kinda pull together during times like this. And so, some of us have the responsibility of reminding our friends, and our peers, and other leaders in the community that they are a force for good.” - Daniel Lurie

Triggers with Hailey and Ronnie Lott Oct 08, 2019

Show notes

In this episode, Hailey and Ronnie tackle the topic of triggers and how to handle ourselves in those moments where things don’t go our way. You can’t control every situation and so trusting others and letting go can help you improve your relationships. By knowing each other and understanding our triggers, we can avoid putting ourselves in situations that trigger us.

Everyone has their own triggers and their moments.
We have to respect and give space to each other.
Being present can help us become aware of our triggers and not be as reactive.
There are ways to trigger people to feel good about themselves.

“Great people help you when you’re down” - Ronnie

“I know the wisdom is inside of me and these questions take me there when my mind is open to it.” - Byron
