Hayden Mora’s Myth Mar 24, 2022

Show notes

This week we have my good friend Hayden Mora on the show. I met Hayden through Fit For Service and wanted to bring him on to talk about how we can contend with ideas we don’t agree with in good faith. In this episode, we lay the ground work for having difficult conversations with people we disagree with, and we walk through an example of what one of these conversations might look like.

A quote from Hayden’s recent article on Medium sums our conversation up perfectly…

“I’m not suggesting we water down our truths, if anything, I think we need to bring fuller, more nuanced, more vulnerable versions of our truth to one another. I am arguing though - that we must find ways in which we do not allow our passion and conviction for creating a more beautiful world - to be a part and parcel of a process in which we undermine the humanity of those who disagree about what that world could be.”
