About this episode
Ever wonder what genuine kindness feels like when it permeates an entire city? After celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary in Montreal, I returned with more than just fond memories—I came back with a profound lesson about how we might all approach life differently.
What struck me most was the noticeable calm and enjoyment of daily life evident in Montreal's residents. Despite facing the same global uncertainties as Americans, they seemed unburdened by the chronic anxiety that characterizes so much of American life today.
The experience has me wondering: What if we all tried living "a little more Canadian" in our approach to community and daily interactions? Could intentionally choosing kindness transform our collective experience?
Listen now to hear the full story, and remember—be safe and be kind.
