What if resistance isn’t about fighting harder, but about living more honestly and compassionately in a divided world?

In this episode, Dave and Poppy explore Living Resistance by Kaitlin B. Curtice, a thoughtful and challenging book that looks at faith, justice, identity, and what it really means to live with integrity.

They unpack Curtice’s reflections on spiritual resistance, examining how everyday choices, language, and actions can either reinforce harm or create space for healing and understanding.

Dave and Poppy discuss the discomfort that often comes with growth, and why listening, humility, and self-examination are essential parts of meaningful change.

The conversation touches on belonging, power, and accountability, as well as how resistance can be expressed through compassion rather than confrontation.

The hosts also reflect on how personal spirituality intersects with social responsibility, and why inner work must accompany outward action.

This episode is reflective, courageous, and deeply relevant. If you’re questioning what it means to live your values in a complex world, this conversation invites you to pause, listen, and engage with intention.
