Kindness Podcast Episode 3: Same Kind of Different As Me


What’s the single biggest mistake of your life? What’s the one decision or perhaps series of decisions that led you somewhere you never intended to be?

Do you have one?

Or perhaps it’s not something you’ve done, but what’s been done to you.

Our stories often become the secrets we hide in a dark place deep within us. We all have them, and few of us could imagine pulling them out and sharing them with the world.

But that’s exactly what Ron Hall is doing. He’s made decisions he regrets and hurt people who were good to him, but at some point, through an unlikely friendship with a man nicknamed Suicide, Ron changed.

Now, with the help the A-list cast of Renee Zellweger, Greg Kinnear and Djimon Hounsou, Ron is sharing what happens when you crack open a hardened heart and use kindness to transform your life and the lives of others.

His New York Times best-selling book and movie, Same Kind of Different As Me… as well as his interview on The Kindness Podcast inspires us to remember that regardless of what we see, we’re all more alike than we are different.

You can listen to Ron Hall’s interview on iTunes or Google play.
