Here are some power takeaways from today’s conversation:

The science behind kindness
Why kindness shouldn’t be mistaken for weakness
Kindness is the glue.

Episode Highlights:
The Science Behind Kindness
Known as the hugging drug or the love drug, oxytocin is a type of hormone that gives us a sense of calm, confidence, and a sense of love. It creates safety and removes fear. This happens either when we are giving kindness, watching someone else be kind, or someone is kind to us.
Kindness is Not a Weakness.
Kindness should never ever, ever be mistaken for weakness. Nor should kindness just appear as a strategy that encompasses your well-being, nor a strategy at work or a sign you often see on the wall. It should be seen through your actions.
Kindness and empathy guide us through failures and springboard us into innovation because they create a sense of true psychological safety. It gives you a sense of belonging and that someone has got your back.
Kindness is the Glue!
Every single organization benefits from fostering kindness actively and proactively. There's a domino effect that happens which is exponential. Whenever a person receives an act of kindness, they are more likely to pay back an act of kindness. And they pay it forward, whether with a stranger and whether it’s as simple as holding the door for someone else.
It leads to an expanded heart which leads to a feeling of generosity as well as a culture of generosity in the workplace. Kindness is the glue, hence, it should never be mistaken for weakness because, in truth, kindness is strength.
