“When I’m in one of the Third Spaces that I’m intentional about creating or being a part of, I feel like I’m a lot less judgmental. I don’t know if that’s maybe the comfort of those spaces. But when I hear something that I maybe disagree with, I’m much more empathetic to listening to that than I am judgmental in listening to that.”
– Reid Auger
In this friendly chat, Ed and Reid dive into the fascinating realm of Third Spaces, one of the three main social arenas where folks get to mix and mingle. They shine a light on the importance of intentionally carving out these Third Spaces and the pure joy that comes from doing stuff together. They underline how crucial these Third Spaces are in sparking social connections, mentorship opportunities, and personal growth. They also tackle the tricky part – engaging in these Third Spaces as life, work, kids and travel take more of your time. The Guys Fishing Weekend is brought up as a brilliant example of a purposefully created Third Space that offers a laid-back and genuine setting for some quality male bonding.
