299: How to move from apathy, empathy, and Into action – Darren Calhoun

It's a charged world these days. From politics to religion. Even in
our own gay world. It seems that from the apps to even in person
meetings, we throw shade at each other without exercising empathy
and understanding. Yet what happens when you to take a second look?
When we slow down and exercise empathy and understanding, rather
than staying in your apathetic ways of being in your beliefs and
only your beliefs? That's what we're exploring today with the host
of Second Sunday podcast, Darren Calhoun. He's an open-minded
explorer teaching how we can all be more open and understanding to
one another from the pulpit to the ballot box. In this provocative
episode:

We explore apathy and empathy and how to become more of the
latter

Learn how to utilize the pause in all situations

Uncover the means for seeing each other as gay men for who we
truly are
