Dharma Lab

Sharon joins Richie Davidson and Cortland Dahl at Dharma Lab for a conversation about lovingkindness, connection, and the quiet ways our lives are supported by others.

Sharon reflects on why she often thinks of metta as connection, a way of remembering that our lives are part of a much larger network. She points to the people who help us do our work, the strangers who grow and transport our food, and the “neutral people” we may pass by without really seeing.

At a time when many people feel lonely, cut off, or pulled into habits of criticism and competition, Sharon offers a simple experiment: pause, notice who makes your life possible, and see what happens when appreciation becomes part of daily life.
