Episode 47: Monica Guzman

Monica Guzman is a bridge-builder, journalist, and entrepreneur who lives for great conversations sparked by curious questions. She’s director of digital and storytelling at Braver Angels, the nation’s largest cross-partisan grassroots organization working to depolarize America. She is also the author of the book, “I Never Thought of It That Way: How to Have Fearlessly Curious Conversations in Dangerously Divided Times.”

I first discovered Monica on Twitter; where I then found her incredible and thought-provoking TED Talk. I was fascinated by her Third Way approach to politics, discourse and being curious about how humans think and behave.

In our visit, Monica and I both answered these questions:

  1. How have you personally experienced hyper-polarization in your work, family, etc?

  2. If you had the power to change one thing about the mindset of a polarized person, what would you change?

  3. What are some signs of hope and progress?

Enjoy!
