Beyond Your Bubble by Tania Israel. Fascinating and practical take on how to engage in meaningful dialogue with folks who have completely opposing political views. While the book primarily focuses on connecting with others across the political divide, it also can serve as a practical guide to engage in other types of difficult conversations. The book offers helpful resources ranging from increasing self-awareness to building effective listening skills. Strategies we can all use to help keep our cool during these challenging times. —Jonathan Asayag, staff counselor, Counseling Center
