“In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.” (Albert Camus)
On this lovely first day of winter, I am so honored to have been the guest on Nicole Phillips’ latest weekly podcast. The Kindness Podcast has interviewed people who are changing the world through their kindness. It is a great honor to be in the company of such people for whom kindness is simply a way of life.
Nicole herself is one of those people. She’s also a tremendous interviewer and made the somewhat daunting experience of a radio interview downright fun. If you’ve never listened to The Kindness Podcast, take a listen. Start anywhere, maybe even with mine!
Happy first day of winter. May we all find in it invincible summer!
Wonderful honor!❤️

Thank you so much for listening to it, Kris, and for your kind comment. It was surprisingly fun … after I got over the initial terror. Wishing you and Paul a relaxing holiday and astounding joy in 2018. Looking forward to seeing you in the new year.

Thanks so much for listening, Carol! I think I can credit Toastmasters with helping me organize and convey my thoughts. I’m still a newbie, but it’s been a fun addition to my life … partially inspired by you!

Hi Donna, it was wonderful to hear your voice and your inspiration for the kindness project. Your comments about thinking about situations before they happen resonated with me, and I’m giving it some thought to help me be a little kinder this year. Thank you for sharing your wisdom!

Thank you so very much for listening! I’m glad it resonated with you. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if a year from now we could look back on 2018 and say that the world has become a bit (or a lot!) kinder?

Thank you so much for listening and for your kind comment, Clare. And Roxie! I am honored that she deigned to sit still and listen. I’m sure she has some thoughts of her own on the subject—and they may center around her feeding schedule.
