THE THREE KINDS OF IGNORANCE
On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, we're exploring three different kinds of ignorance and how recognizing them in ourselves can help us to grow, take responsibility, and respond to others and life with more curiosity and compassion.
I talk about innocent ignorance, when we simply don’t know or don't yet know better; willful ignorance, when we avoid information that challenges us or makes us uncomfy; and belligerent ignorance, when we aggressively reject (like an asshole) what we could actually learn if we kept our hearts and minds open.
You’ll hear why staying open-minded matters and how practicing curiosity can help us to understand ourselves and each another in a deeper way.
We can forgive ourselves and other clumsy humans when we make innocent mistakes...
And we have to commit to taking action to shed our ignorance, and then doing a whole lot better, once we know better!
