AN HONEST CONVERSATION WITH GENERATION Z (PART 2)

From left to right: Clay, Kevin, Kristina, Lauren

This is part 2 of a longer conversation I had with some friends awhile back, so if you haven’t listened to part 1 of my conversation with Generation Z, you’ll probably want to do that first (and you can find it here).

This episode picks up right where that one left off with Lauren, Kristina, Kevin, and Clay sharing their personal reactions to injustices we all witnessed in 2020, as well as even some tangible and practical things they did in response. So if you’re someone who likes to take action and wants to but you’re not quite sure how or where to start, be sure to listen for that. Whether you’re a teenager or in your 60s, they’re all things each of us can do.

And that’s the thing, so much of what they said seems relevant and helpful to people of all ages and circumstances. Even if you’re not someone who considers yourself an expert of social media or someone who stresses over how many likes or followers you have, I’m willing to bet the feelings and interactions they describe are still relevant to how you talk or don’t talk to people sometimes, that it might describe how you choose to engage or not engage with people (or posts you see on social media). And I’m sure we can all relate to their thoughts and concerns when it comes to cancel culture.

Because regardless of whether it’s on Instagram, Facebook, a text message, a phone call, or even a face-to-face conversation, we all have those feelings of nervousness, hesitation, and the desire to avoid people sometimes rather than having hard or uncomfortable conversations.

So, like I said, no matter your age or circumstance, I hope you can take away something encouraging and helpful from what they shared.

Oh yeah, and during the conversation you’ll hear me mention the average age of Senators. Here is where I got that from!
