"How do you find a community of like-minded people who share your beliefs?" I get this question a lot and my answer might surprise you.

It also prompted some interesting discussion on social media, so I'm diving into all the nuance and messy, community-building truth in this podcast episode.

Podcast Episode Highlights

Why community is a pillar of the old-fashioned on purpose lifestyle
Common questions about creating community
Tensions and drama that occurred recently about community on social media
Community vs. inner circle (and the topic of influence)
Personal foundational beliefs vs. community connections
Challenge yourself to be slightly uncomfortable (why that can be a good thing)
Why it's good (and also old-fashioned) to push against polarization
