“Different” is indeed the point!
You are ABSOLUTELY right that our goal should be to appreciate, nourish and harvest each people’s unique traits. Remember me, way back when Driven to Distraction was new? You were so right about the *difference* being what matters - it’s not “What’s wrong with you and how can we beat you into conformance,” it’s “What are you like and how can we all make the most of it?” For me, spontaneity and in-the-moment intuition have given me a new career - after beating an unbeatable cancer I ended up co-founding a medical society, testifying in Washington for new federal policies, then becoming a global keynote speaker in healthcare, known for being attuned to each audience’s different interests.

GREAT podcast.
