How to Stop Taking People’s Behavior So Personally - Jesse Lipscombe

What if the people who hurt us are also the people who heal us?

In this powerful conversation, Dr. Jody sits down with actor, speaker, community leader, and all-around remarkable human Jesse Lipscombe to talk about empathy, resilience, hope, and what it means to truly see another person.

From growing up in a mixed-faith household to navigating racism, parenting, acting, and life in a rapidly changing world, Jesse shares the lessons that have shaped the way he understands humanity and why he refuses to give up on people.

Together, Jody and Jesse explore: Why empathy is one of the bravest things we can practice What acting teaches us about human connection How relationships can both wound us and heal us Why play is essential at every age The difference between toxic positivity and genuine hope What it means to stay soft in a world that often asks us to harden

This episode is a reminder that people are hard to hate up close. That every person is carrying a story we can't see. And that hope isn't something we find, it's something we choose.

If you've been feeling discouraged by the state of the world lately, this conversation might be exactly what your heart needs.
