Welcome back to the Little Pick Me Up podcast with your host, Lisa DiVito! In this deeply personal and universal episode, we dive into the challenging topic of judgment—how we all do it, often without realizing, and how it affects us and those around us.

Lisa shares poignant stories from her own life, including a powerful moment when she stood up for her son during a sensory overload meltdown and the pain of being judged for the products at Tiramisu Paperie. These stories highlight the harsh realities of snap judgments and the profound impact they can have.

We explore why we judge based on appearances, behaviors, and circumstances, and how these quick assessments can mislead us and cause unnecessary pain. Lisa also reflects on times when she has judged others, only to later form meaningful connections with them, demonstrating that judgment blinds us to the beauty in others.

Join us as we learn to catch ourselves in moments of judgment and pivot towards empathy and understanding. This episode encourages us to engage instead of assume, to learn the stories behind the faces we see, and to choose kindness, curiosity, and open-heartedness.

Let's make a pact to lift each other up, spread understanding, and sprinkle confetti-like kindness into our lives. Tune in for a heartfelt exploration of empathy, and discover how every act of compassion can transform our communities.
