Dwarfism Pt 1: Little People, Huge Stories with Christophe Zajac-Denek - Ep 55 The Third Place
-
- Relationships
Since birth, Christophe has proved everyone wrong when they discounted his ability. Standing 4’4” and having a rare form of dwarfism, Christophe endured three major surgeries before age 18.
We had so much fun in our conversation with Christophe! We asked awkward questions, including "what is the politically correct phrase to use when we meet someone with Dwarfism?" His response caught us off guard to say the least!
You won't want to miss this irreverently funny, real and honest episode!

The Third Place Podcast is a weekly podcast that invites listeners into the hard conversations that we have a tendency to avoid.
We “go there” on things such as…
How anger is beautifulHow to find presence amidst chaosHow to have difficult conversationsHow to be an allyHow to live with grief
The Third Place is a safe place where curiosity is encouraged, differences are welcomed, and empathy is embraced through healthy dialogue.
We've forgotten how to talk to each other… Life has become polarized and dualistic - you’re either with me or against me. To embrace the complex human experience is to see the world through other’s eyes. The Third Place podcast helps with the disconnect. This looks like less conflict and tension and more like a peaceful existence with others. The Third Place podcast restores the art of dialogue.
