Episode 71 - "Get Out of the Leaves"

In Episode 71 of the 1life podcast, Behka White discusses the importance of connection and unity within communities, despite differences in beliefs, politics, or other potentially divisive factors. She introduces the analogy of "getting out of the leaves" to connect at a deeper level, moving from individual beliefs (leaves) to shared values (branches and trunk) and ultimately to our shared humanity (roots). Behka emphasizes that connecting with others at this root level, even with differing opinions, is more meaningful and fosters understanding. She encourages listeners to practice getting out of the leaves, starting with their homes, then communities, and ultimately reaching across perceived divides to connect with others as fellow human beings. The episode concludes with an invitation to embrace discomfort as a path to growth and connection.
