Listen "3. Unexpected Connection, Purpose & Impact with Amy Mortensen & Daniel Shvartsman"
Episode Synopsis
On this week's Being All of Us episode, we go on a journey with two guests: Amy Mortensen and Daniel Shvartsman, co-hosts of the Voices of Migration / Voces Migratorias podcast. They talk about how they met, how their background and international life has helped them see the world differently, and how they try to find their place in it.
I was really inspired listening the the story of this couple. It made me smile, made me laugh, made me feel warm and fuzzy - and it helped me understand the power we all have to make a difference. I hope it does the same for you!
We talk about:
0:45 - Amy’s background and story on how they met
8:50 - Daniel’s side of the story
18:00 – No soulmates, relationships take work, and questioning the Golden Rule
24:30 – The origins and aims of Voices of Migration / Voces Migratorias
31:30 – Running away or running towards
41:30 – Understanding privilege
49:30 – Businesses that serve
54:00 – Challenge – seeing and listening to those around us
Challenge of the Week: Practice the power of listening. Reach out to someone on a human level that you might see everyday, and listen to them. Really listen; do it like pro.
