BHT Bytes: Navigating Post-Presidential Election with Curiosity & Compassion – Episode 358

Behavioral Health Today

Polarization is not inevitable—it’s a tactic. The real challenge is learning to listen, seek understanding, and embrace the opportunity for growth that comes from different perspectives. In the first episode of BHT Bytes, hosts Dr. Graham Taylor and Sharlee Dixon explore how polarization is often a tactic designed to divide us, and how we can break free from it by focusing on understanding, listening, and growth. In this quick and digestible episode, we reflect on the political division post-election and discuss how we can approach the new year with a grounded, intentional mindset. Instead of reacting with frustration, we explore how to take control of what we can—starting with how we listen, understand, and make a meaningful impact in our local communities. Join us as we shift from division to agency and focus on creating positive change, one conversation at a time.
