We are honored to have Krista Tippett on Health Gig. She is the creator and host of the highly acclaimed public radio program and podcast On Being, which features conversations with theologians, scientists and artists about spirituality, community, creativity and how we can build a more just and civil society. She is also the curator of the Civil Conversations Project at On Being. Krista Tippett is a Peabody Award winning broadcaster, a New York Times best selling author and a National Humanities Medal recipient, which she received from President Barack Obama in 2014. In today’s podcast we talk about the importance of words, curiosity and questions. With language we have the power to make people’s day or break people’s day. Generous listening actually invites people to make it reasonable for a person to be vulnerable and revealing. The internet was created as a blank slate, but really we need to use the concept of hospitality as a social technology to help people relax and open up, Tippet explains. In this interview, she eloquently highlights the fact that this is a “time of incredible tectonic shifts in the structures and institutions that came out of the 20th century that don't make sense in the 21st century. And in that kind of change, you have a lot of people where the ground beneath their feet is shifting and the ground beneath what they imagined and expected for their children's future is shifting. That's a trauma.”. Tippet’s calling is creating a connective tissue so that “we're learning together, that our learning gets interconnected, that there's cross pollination. Our world does not want to be fractured, right? We have to do bit by bit, five people at a time, 500 people at a time. We have to show what is this other possibility -- and how does that look -- and how do we get there. And then we have to teach each other, how do we get to this and what are the obstacles.” More From Krista Tippet Website: https://onbeing.org Instagram @onbeing Twitter @onbeing Facebook @OnBeing Linkedin On Being Project
