The Kindness Podcast Episode 15: The Good Virus


Breaking news: Nice guys DON’T finish last. In fact, people who are kind have more success in the workplace and on the home-front! And like the common cold or that nasty flu that’s going around, kindness spreads like a virus!

Several years ago, I wrote an article for my “Kindness is Contagious” column about a documentary film also titled “Kindness is Contagious.” The man who put it together, David Gaz, dedicated several years of his life to gathering scientific and social research about the effects kindness has on an individual and on a society.

I was so inspired, motivated and intrigued by the information in David’s film that I knew I needed to share it in a podcast interview with the filmmaker.

You can check out David’s interview in Episode 15 of The Kindness Podcast on itunes, google play or wherever you find your favorite podcasts.

When you’re done, melt some butter, pop some popcorn and settle into the fascinating benefits of kindness in David’s film, “Kindness is Contagious” available for sale on their website or rental on Amazon.
