Listen "Taha Vahanvaty: The Acceptance Project"
Episode Synopsis
If you want to be secure in your viewpoint and opinions as a leader, making an effort to fully accept opposing perspectives may seem counterintuitive. But that's exactly what Taha Vahanvaty proposes. A recent high school graduate, Taha founded the Acceptance Project in his Pennsylvania hometown in an effort to support civil dialogue about divisive issues, and strength the community as a result. Now, Taha joins us from his gap year in India, where he is embarking on a spiritual journey to better understand his place in the world. Tune in to this episode to hear our discussion about starting an organization when so many other people are doing similar things, navigating difficult conversations, and encouraging people to be facilitators. Plus, Abigail reaffirms her stance on Team Moth, and Tim learns the meaning of the word "henchman."
