This episode is a departure from my usual Weight Wednesday content, but it is just as valuable! This episode is all about America Unfiltered, a terrific new documentary created by @horacio_marquinez and @kirillmyltsev, with @marc.brackett as producer.

This film is raw, emotional, and honest. It follows two immigrant filmmakers (Horacio and Kirill) as they travel across the U.S. to hear unfiltered stories from everyday people. It's all about capturing the complicated, beautiful, messy truth of what it means to be American, especially during a time when the country has been asking some hard questions about itself.

We get into how America Unfiltered came together, what surprised the creators most on their journey, and why emotions, and emotional intelligence are at the heart of understanding each other better.

Marc Brackett, who you might know from my podcast and as the founder and director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence (@emotionallyintelligent), shares his perspective too..

This episode is a must-listen if you care about how feelings drive connection and change.

You can stream America Unfiltered right now on Amazon Prime! 🎥🇺🇸
