    Inherited Perspectives and Open-mindedness - Interview with Jessica Barnes

    Join today's guest, Jessica Barnes, on an exploration of how the attitudes and behaviors of parents can subtly pass down through generations, shaping our beliefs, biases, and worldviews. Jessica invites listeners to reflect on which inherited perspectives still serve them, and reveals the importance of listening inward and analyzing our intuitive responses. Jessica also shares the value of surrounding oneself with people from different backgrounds and with different values, as a way to expand perspective and build empathy. Finally, she offers practical advice on how to stay open-minded and balanced in a world of many “truths,” where people’s realities can differ widely, and how it’s perfectly okay to simply disagree while remaining true to your own values.Resilient Kids is #1 on FeedSpot's Top 15 New Zealand Parenting Podcasts! https://podcast.feedspot.com/new_zealand_parenting_podcasts/ Resources: Jessica's Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/2Ps59OvIQF63G4FBGcqbVV?si=7e1b27567df84092 Jessica's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100094182336643 Jessica's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/get.zen.with.jess Catherine Delahunty (Tauiwi experience): https://carecca.nz/catherine-delahunty/ Jase Williams (Trauma Informed Pedagogies): https://www.jasewilliams.nz/index.htmlMatt Brown - (My Fathers Barbers): https://www.penguin.co.nz/authors/matt-brown The Pākehā Project: https://www.pakehaproject.nz/offerings Madeleine's website: https://www.peopleskillsconsulting.co.nz/ Get in touch: resilientkidspod@gmail.com
