Is meaningful change even possible—or just a pipe dream sold in five-step formulas and Instagram mantras?
In this tender, fiercely intelligent episode of Everything Happens, Kate Bowler sits down with Malcolm Gladwell to ask one of life’s most spiritual (and suspiciously simple) questions: Can we do better? Together, they explore how history, humility, and forgiveness might offer more lasting transformation than self-help ever could.
With Kate’s trademark honesty and Malcolm’s curious mind, they dismantle the myths we live by—about personal growth, about how people “should” act, and about the invisible grace that makes seeing clearly (and changing deeply) possible.
Expect: no pep talks. Just real talk about the mess and miracle of being human.
