Great question! One reason (among meany) is that they have unmediated access to carefully crafted identities and lifestyles on platforms like Instagram and TikTok. What is crazy is that they have never known a world without influencers. This leads young people to comparisons, causing many of them to feel they have shortcomings to fix. Also, the widespread presence of cosmetic surgery over content over on social media has been associated with growing self-scrutiny among young people. I would love to hear your thoughts on the identity focused aspect of this.

@ I’ll have to give it some thought. They def live in a computer mediated world. All of it is computer mediated - relationships, friendships, learning, identity formation - they only know formation with it.

Man, I am loving these convos! Leadership and Identity, what a concept 😎

What a great convo. Mentorship needs to be a topic explored more frequently. Think of how many leaders are out there who need to bring someone under their wings to pass on the greatness. How cool would that be...

Glad you enjoyed it!

Such good convos with Bailie. She is a riot 🤣

I wish leaders took more risks. The only way to get good is to GET GOOD 🤣

@ and then GET BETTER!!

Absolutely! That is why it is so important for us to remember... someone is always watching. Thanks for engaging.

Thanks, brother! I am ready. It's gonna be fun. Love to have you on the journey and hear your comments as we talk about the movies ✊🏽

Man, what a great discussion! Seasoned leaders do really need to take more responsibility to find younger leaders and offer them a chance at coaching and mentorship. I look forward to our next episode.

Thanks for the encouragement! And, thanks for watching.

How do you mean? Are you saying there is a time to be rude, or that being rude is just a fact of life for some people and the rest of society should deal with it? Thanks for listening and engaging!

What about if you are a polite person and people are rude, though? Thanks for listening and engaging!

lol, the long-form answer is in the full video! But also in this short... "Don't give your opinion." Try it out for a month and I bet you see a difference in the way that people bring stuff to you. Let me know how it goes. Thanks for watching 👊🏽

An empath in general, or per relationship? If it is the latter then I would consider that person part of one's inner circle of confidants. Thanks for watching and engaging ⭐

Tell me more, brother! I love common sense answers. Thanks for watching 🕺🏽

Tell me more 🤷🏽

Now THAT is relational genius right there. I should have you on the podcast! Thanks for watching 👊🏽

Well, he's not arguing that confrontation is bad What he's saying is it's just my opinion, I could be wrong, this could be a terrible decision, so I'm just not gonna give my opinion, I'll let you make the decision for yourself While I do disagree with him, I have to acknowledge that you're just putting words in his mouth My thought process is to give your opinion if you are a trusted individual to the other person, but specify that you're not sure if this is 100% the best idea, they made the decision, you're not responsible, and if they don't take your advice, so be it, we live happily ever after

In all situations?

Well said, brother. To the first part of your post, people like to give out there opinions like candy. I think there are a lot of opinions out there that people give in the heat of the moment and end up giving really bad advice. The unfortunate part about this is that it doesn't affect them directly since they are the one giving the opinion. But, it can have disastrous ramifications for the person to whom they are getting that opinion. To the second part of your post, I agree with you that there are confidants in the lives of others who have the ability and reputation of giving worthy advice. Unfortunately, those are usually not the people that we are taking advice from. I for one have an inner circle (as Maxwell puts it) that speaks in my life -- trusted men and women who speak into my life. But, those people are few and far between, and usually the first ones to not want to give me their opinion. That's how I know it is a worthy opinion, and most likely good advice. Thanks for watching and engaging! If there are any topics you would like to hear about, I am all ears, and would absolutely love and invite those opinions 🤣

Lol 🤣 Thanks, brother! I never thought of it that way. Thanks for watching and engaging 👊🏽
