I met her this week at the Rohingya camp in Cox’s Bazar.
Those eyes reminded me that compassion must become action — not just emotion.

We have a shared responsibility to make sure no one can erase this smile.

We don’t have to think alike to love alike.

Empathy transcends borders, faiths, and differences — it’s what makes us human.

Spoke at the Woman’s National Democratic Club — a powerful symbol of women’s leadership and civic courage.

We reflected on rejecting hate, choosing humanity, and the responsibility to be engaged citizens in this defining moment.

Never let age or ideology stand in the way of learning and growth.

My conversation with Dave Stachowiak crossed 25,000+ downloads in the first week!

We explored how #empathy can drive smarter, more human leadership.

Community isn’t just about friends and colleagues—it’s about reaching further. That means stepping outside our comfort zones to build dialogue that strengthens our shared future.

Our country needs this now more than ever.

If you’re in DC or Southern Maryland, I’d love to see you there.

I’ve learned that in a world full of conflict, one act of kindness can be louder than a thousand arguments.

Just dropped: My conversation with @WilkWilkinson on Derate the Hate. He’s a Christian conservative. I’m a progressive Hindu.

We talked about legal immigration, purpose, and why empathy matters.

Thank you, @jenszalai.bsky.social for tracing its complicated journey—from moral compass to political football.
In my book "Do More Good: Inspiring Lessons From Extraordinary People," I frame empathy not as weakness, but as a strength we can train. Your piece is a powerful reminder.

neilghoshauthor @neilghoshauthor.bsky.social · Jul 22

We are NOT powerless. Yuval Harari reminds us: if you're feeling helpless, don’t retreat—Act.

That’s why I included a list of vetted nonprofits in my book "Do More Good: Inspiring Lessons From Extraordinary People"—so anyone can take the first step.

🎥 Watch the clip.

Patriotism isn’t just pride—it’s participation.

🇺🇸 What does it mean to put Patriotism into Action?
On July 4th, I had the chance to discuss this with NTD.

Many of my friends—smart, thoughtful, law-abiding citizens—are afraid.

Afraid to voice their opinions.
Afraid to be who they are.

Humor, like music, gives us strength & courage.
And right now, we need both.

Yes, we’ve got problems—but there’s no better place to solve them. 🇺🇸

I joined Paul Johnson and Larry Aldrich on Optimistic American to discuss bridging divides, lessons from past heroes, and the power of individual action.

Good news: Empathy is on the rise 📈
Gen Z is showing a 40% surge in compassion since 2008—reaching levels we haven’t seen since the 1970s.

Empathy isn’t soft. It’s strength. Let’s keep modeling it. Ask me how?

Anger is understandable. But what do we do with it?

Blinded at 10 by a rubber bullet, Richard didn’t give in to anger.

He chose action—founding @childrenincrossfire and helping 1000s of children in conflict zones.

We spoke about violence, resilience, and why empathy must lead to action.
