From Fighting and Frustration to Friendship - Brian Parrish
When an articulate critic in a Facebook group challenged his long-held Conservative beliefs, Brian Parrish, exhausted by years of echoing the same arguments and encouraged by his brother, chose to begin engaging openly with opposing perspectives. This encounter sparked a journey of self-reflection and learning, transforming his approach to dialogue with people he once saw as the enemy.
Brian Parrish is host of the podcast Parrish the Thought. He listened to Uncomfy and reached out to us to share his story—and you can, too!
