Episode 110: Connection — More Than Just Being Around People Many people assume connection is built through shared activities, friendships, and time spent together. But authentic connection goes much deeper.

In this episode: Why connection is more than friendship or proximity The difference between knowing someone and understanding them How awareness improves relationships Why judgment blocks connection The role of curiosity and empathy in authentic relationships Accepting differences with neutrality instead of judgment Building deeper connections through understanding Scripture 📖 Romans 12:15 Journal Prompt Where in my life am I seeking agreement when what I really need is understanding? Who in my life might I better connect with if I approached them with curiosity instead of judgment?
