1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 !!This episode is being re-released because Matt accidentally released the wrong file for Spotify Users. So extra listen for some of you and a fixing of an error for the rest! Sorry if it was an extra something but ultimately a yada yada yawn yawn for those Spotify Users who tried!! Matt sits down with Kiki, a professor, yoga instructor, Vipassana practitioner, and family member. &amp;nbsp;We seek to explore the intersection of wisdom, relationships, and hard conversations about sensitive topics. We begin by framing the conversation by discussing some skills useful to such conversations – Walking the Middle Path, Validation, and Mindfulness of Emotion. Then we actually have a radically genuine, hard conversation as we rdiscuss the horrors of Uvalde, Texas just 24 hours after the shooting took place (15:37). We end the episode by discussing wisdom using the Self Assessed Wisdom Scale (SAWS; 61:36). Please take care while listening.
