Every decision we make moves us in one of two directions – toward love or toward fear. Love expands, even when it’s hard, while fear contracts and keeps us small. But how do we choose love when fear is loud? How do we find love even in the cracks of life, when everything around us tells us to retreat?
In this episode, we explore how love, when practiced with courage, can change not just our own lives but the world around us. We revisit the powerful story of the Greensboro Four, young men who, in 1960, sat down at a whites-only lunch counter and refused to move – not in anger, but in dignity, in resistance, in love. Their decision to stay ignited a movement. Their love expanded. And it is this same practice of choosing love, even in the smallest moments, that we can cultivate in our own lives today.
Using both neuroscience and spiritual insight, we explore how our focus shapes our reality – how training our minds to notice love can shift our experience of the world. Love, like light, expands wherever we direct our attention. And even in the smallest cracks, love is waiting to grow.
