Listen "“Each person is his own judge,” - Native American Proverb, Shawnee Nation - Balancing Self-reflection and External Feedback"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of the Teach Different Podcast, hosts Dan and Steve Fouts honor Native American Heritage Month by exploring a powerful proverb from the Shawnee Nation: "Each person is his own judge." Dan and Steve break down the claim of the quote, highlighting the importance of personal accountability and inner morality, and explore the counterclaim—the value of mentorship, external judgment, and community influence in personal growth. They also ask essential questions for everyone’s consideration: How do we navigate criticism and praise? Can we become better people solely by judging ourselves, or do we need others to guide us?
