Description

Why are we so divided — and what can we really do about it? In this episode, Rich Harwood, founder of The Harwood Institute and author of The New Civic Path, returns to the show to share how communities across America are rebuilding trust and taking action — without waiting on Washington.

We talk about how to bring people together, restore belief in each other, and start healing our divided country from the ground up.

If you're tired of outrage, political fighting, and feeling stuck, this episode offers a new path forward.

Topics include:

  • Why national politics won’t fix what’s broken
  • How local action rebuilds trust and connection
  • What it means to “turn outward”
  • How to start making a difference in your own community
  • The power of small steps to spark big change
