Wise words from the creators of the Pantsuit Politics podcast. Truly listen to the people you disagree with. Consider what traumas might have shaped their world view (Vietnam War, 9/11, etc). Find ways to give back & connect in your community. When talking with your kids about politics consider saying “What do you think about that?” instead of telling them what they should think. I liked their first book more but this one still has a lot to offer.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ How to navigate relationships with all the divisiveness of the last few years. In short, how to exist in the world without being in constant conflict. We all have similarities and differences. If you feel overwhelmed, this book provides nuance, grounding and refocus. The friendship bits were my favorite. Bonus points that I‘ve been acquainted with one of the authors most of my life. Happy for, and proud of you, Sarah! #PansuitPolitics

My sons are at running practice, so Champ and I are walking on the greenway. He‘s loving the creek breaks! 😂 And I just started the tagged book; the second from my high school friend Sarah Holland (of the #PantsuitPolitics podcast).
