S14 E7: The Inconvenient Truth About Building Community

"How do you find a community of like-minded people who share your beliefs?" I get this question a lot and my answer might surprise you.

It also prompted some interesting discussion on social media, so I'm diving into all the nuance and messy, community-building truth in this podcast episode.

Podcast Episode Highlights

• Why community is a pillar of the old-fashioned on purpose lifestyle
• Common questions about creating community
• Tensions and drama that occurred recently about community on social media
• Community vs. inner circle (and the topic of influence)
• Personal foundational beliefs vs. community connections
• Challenge yourself to be slightly uncomfortable (why that can be a good thing)
• Why it's good (and also old-fashioned) to push against polarization
