Building relationships with people who speak different languages and come from different places and backgrounds can be challenging, or even scary, for many people. 

But for today’s guest, Chris Schirm, it’s all part of his job as a foreign service officer for the U.S. State Department. He’s on his fifth tour of service abroad, this time in the Republic of Congo. 

Even if you have no desire to ever serve or work or even travel abroad, Chris offers some great perspective on the importance of surrounding ourselves with diversity of people and opinions. He also discussions how curiosity can help us build relationships with people who are different from us––right in our own neighborhoods.
