The Transformational Power of Knowing Your Boiling Points
In this episode, I reflect on a few powerful moments I’ve experienced as host of The Space In Between. I explore a core theme from Season I: how self-awareness is essential for both taking principled stands on the issues we care about and finding ways to bridge divides. A key concept is understanding our personal 'boiling points'—those moments when we’re so emotionally charged that our ability to engage empathetically with others is limited. Knowing our boiling points gives us agency to make ...

In this episode of The Space In Between, I explore this evocative idea through the work of Dr. Todd Rose, whose research reveals that while polarization feels real, it’s largely a collective distortion. It turns out that beneath the noise, A...
