Summary

Humans love duality. But there is great beauty in the grey that lives between the lines. Black and white. Good and bad. Evolution and regression. We are hard wired to categorize. To pick a team and stick with it. It’s our way of making sense of the world. But too often this inclination to self-identify only serves to isolate and divide — working at cross-purposes with our competing desire to more deeply connect with our fellow humans. So what happens when we resist the urge to judge another? This week on the podcast Julie and I peer beyond dogma, belief systems and categories to embrace the grey. Consider it a thought experiment in forsaking judgment for empathy as a path to better understand others and the environments we co-inhabit. Specific topics include: * creating and cultivating community * the difference between discernment and judgment * enhancing sustainability in consumer choice * finding your authentic voice We end the episode with a rendition of the Hedy West song 500 Miles by Julie (aka SriMati) and our boys' band Ana Leimma. I sincerely hope you enjoy the conversation. Peace + Plants, Rich

0:00.0	Hey everybody, today's episode is brought to you by Ring. Did you guys know that there's a
0:04.2	home burglary every 13 seconds? I was really surprised to learn that and even more surprising
0:10.5	is that most of them happen in broad daylight with a burglar ringing your doorbell to make sure
0:15.8	that you're away before breaking in. Well, the Ring video doorbell has been proven to stop
0:20.8	burglaries before they began by allowing you to see and speak to anyone approaching your door
0:26.0	using your smartphone. Now, Ring is using their advanced motion detection technology to protect
0:31.6	your entire property and they're doing it with something they call the Ring of Security Kit.
0:36.5	And this kit includes a Ring video doorbell for the front door and this thing called a Ring
0:41.6	Stick Up Cam, which is basically this wireless weatherproof HD camera and it keeps an eye on all
0:47.6	the other parts of your property. So the Ring video doorbell and the Stick Up Cam both install
0:52.7	in minutes and working together, they provide 24-7 monitoring of your entire home, whether you're
0:58.4	in the living room or thousands of miles away. For a limited time, my listeners get $50 off the
1:04.1	Ring of Security Kit. It's the lowest price anywhere. Go to Ring.com-forthslash-rich-rolled-now
1:09.2	and join the hundreds of thousands who protect their home with Ring. That's Ring.com-forwards-slash-rich-roll
1:16.0	for $50 off now onto the show. It's really all about perspective and so it's an inside job. So
1:24.6	I would say that many of us have a lot of inner work to do and to attend to before we start judging
1:31.8	other people and so it's the old thing. You don't throw stones if you live in a glass house
1:37.9	and you know all of us will be on our knees at some point in our life. Life does not let anyone
1:45.2	off of that. So in a way there's no need for you to judge or for us to judge or for us to
1:52.7	tell another person and as we always say the best most powerful thing is to be a living example.
