Summary: This week is Random Acts of Kindness Week and in this latest episode of Amplify Your Life Podcast, I'm chatting casually with Galit Breen about kindness. It's one of my favorite topics. Her story about kindness began in a dark place a couple years ago when she wrote for the Huffington Post in which she shared a wedding photo of herself. Almost immediately, commenters came out of internet woodwork and began fat shaming her. She fell into a deep, dark place and felt very low about herself. As she slowly climbed her way back up, her daughter, who was 10 at the time, began showing an interest in being online and having her own access to social media. That's when Galit knew she needed to take action. She's been on a mission to teach kindness ever since. In this episode we talk about many ways we can have that conversation with our children about being kind online and in real life. And Galit talks about the importance of teaching our children how to be kind and, of course, to do that we have to be good role models. She shares her thoughts on her 80/20 rule about kindness in her recent blog post 27 Everyday Ways to Be Kind to Our Kids Check out Galit Breen's book Kindness Wins on Amazon or read her blog These Little Waves.
