Navigating conversations about identity, diversity, and justice can be fraught with linguistic traps and emotional landmines. On this episode we learn from Kenji Yoshino, Professor of Law at NYU School of Law and Faculty Director of the school's Meltzer Center for Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging how to have nuanced and empathetic conversations about our differences, whether in our workplaces, our social circles, or in our homes and how to teach our children this skill so that they can thrive in a diverse and complex world.















 

Studies have shown that 69-90% of us will experience at least one serious traumatic event during our lifetimes. The sudden death of a loved one. A debilitating illness.  A natural disaster. War. What differentiates us?  How we respond;  how resilient we are.  Our guest today has found that extremely resilient people share  the 10 attributes we discuss in this episode.  As we reflect on the  personal and global challenges we have all faced in 2023 and look forward to the new year, understanding how we can not only become more resilient but teach our children to develop resilience, is undoubtedly one of the most important lessons we can learn.
