Retired Navy SEAL and author of
Powerful Peace Robert DuBois is back for part III (
part I,
part II) of the conversation with Michael Ostrolenk. In this podcast Rob emphasizes that a meaningful peace between individuals, groups, or countries requires dialog, trust, respect, and recognizing the dignity of unfamiliar cultures and individuals. In summary,
man up and be accountable for one’s mistakes and
humble down to listen & learn from others’ points of view. Rob depicts his gradual realization of these truths through vivid glimpses of his journeys across the globe. Hard lessons learned from Turkish bars, make-shift strip clubs, and Perdue Chicken all come to light in today’s exchange. Learn more at
