Monica Berg and Michael Berg
About this episode

In this episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we explore the hidden roots of judgment and how it often reveals more about us than the people we judge. We’ll unpack how judgment narrows our focus, preventing us from seeing things clearly. Instead of judging, what if we got curious? What if we chose connection over criticism? Join us as we talk about the shift from judgment to compassion, and the healing power of truly being seen and heard.
