Civility, The Art Of Human Flourishing. w/ Alexandra Hudson || EP 1476
Author Alexandra Hudson joins Josh to discuss historical lessons of civility. Specifically, lessons we can learn from the relationship between two of our founding fathers, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson. We discuss how their bitter political differences drove them apart and destroyed their friendship, and how they were able to use civility and respect to rekindle that friendship later in life. Alexandra believes we can "revive the wisdom of the past to help us better our lives today," and that the story of Adams and Jefferson is an example of how we can bridge the divisions that build up in relationships, and rekindle the ones that have been strained due to political differences in our lives.
