- Mastering Skills, Building Community, and the Power of Kindness with Sarah Stewart Mike 33:57
What if mastering multiple skills could lead to a richer, more connected life? This week on the Kindness Matters Podcast, we're thrilled to welcome Sarah Stewart, a remarkable individual known for her boundless kindness and diverse talents, ranging from photography and Travel writing to homeschooling and entrepreneurship. Sarah shares her thought-provoking journey of honing various crafts with intent and passion, all while reflecting on how the pandemic has reshaped our social interactions. Learn from her insights on breaking societal norms and the profound value of lifelong learning.
Board games aren't just a pastime; they're a gateway to human connection. Sarah takes us into her world of over 1200 board games and annual family trips to the World Board Game Championships in Pennsylvania. This vibrant community event contrasts sharply with the competitive, often isolating nature of video games, highlighting the importance of kindness and responding to those who reach out. Discover how these games, and the principles they embody, can foster a sense of community and support that's increasingly rare in today's fast-paced world.
Wrap your mind around the transformative power of genuine listening and creative expression. In this segment, we delve into the importance of authentic, attentive conversations and how asking, “How are you, really?” can change lives. Sarah also introduces us to PolyKindred, a collective that nurtures artists through community and shared endeavors, underscoring the indispensable role of creativity in human life. Concluding with a discussion on the uplifting power of positive interactions, this episode is a compelling reminder of how small acts of kindness and the joy of creativity can enrich our lives and those around us.
