Gratitude Changes the World
LISTEN TO THE FULL EPISODE:
If you were asked to write a note of gratitude to one person in your life, who would it be? What would you say? Today’s guest Brian Doyle talks all about his passion for bringing more gratitude in all it’s nuanced beauty to the world. Brian is a lover of storytelling with a deep background in the TED community and as an event producer for vital organizations like the LGBT Community Center in NYC and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Brian and Nikki dive into the dynamics of privilege and power that interplay across the various aspects of our identity. They talk about the intersections and hierarchy within non-dominant identity groups and the importance of shining a light on the often unspoken, yet pervasive, influences and barriers of whiteness.
We want to hear from you! What is your relationship with gratitude? Is it something you feel comfortable with or does it make you squirm a little bit? Are there difficult conversations or situations you’ve been through in the last 18 months that you are grateful for in hindsight? www.nikkiinnocent.com/jointheconversation
