Bridging Across Power Differences (Part 2) - NaPodPoMo 2025 Day 14

We all have a mix of privilege and struggle — bridging starts by knowing which one we’re bringing to the table.

Day 14 of our 30-day challenge—our ongoing exploration into the science and practice of bridging divides.

On Day 11, we spoke with Kira Hamman about one of the toughest challenges in bridging—how to build long bridges across vast differences in social, political, or economic power.
Today, we revisit that essential question from another perspective.

How do you account for differential power dynamics in dialogue along the long bridges?

Our guest, Tania Israel, professor of counseling psychology and award-winning author, joins us to share how she approaches this problem.
Tania brings insight into what it means to create genuine connection in spaces where imbalances exist—where listening, empathy, and structure can turn uneven ground into shared understanding.
