About this listen

 A show, a movement, and a mission to break down the barriers that divide us. In a world growing louder with hate, division, and misunderstanding, we choose a different frequency: love, compassion, and the courageous power of connection.

Each episode invites you into real, unscripted conversations over chocolate and coffee — simple rituals with the power to disarm, disarmour, and deeply connect. Here, we don’t just talk about change — we live it. We bring together people from different walks of life to share their stories, their hopes, and sometimes, their hardest truths.

What will you get out of it? Perspective. Courage. Humanity. A spark of hope that maybe — just maybe — the world isn’t as divided as we think.

This is your invitation to slow down, listen deeply, and discover the extraordinary in everyday people. Because when we make space for the conversations that matter, love doesn’t just whisper — it roars. So grab a cuppa. Break the chocolate. And stay for the conversation that might just change your day — or your life.Copyright Vids Inc. TV Social Sciences
