Random Acts of Kindness: "It's The Holiday Season"

This Christmas morning, we’re leaning into something simple, but incredibly powerful: kindness.

In this special holiday episode, we explore how small, unexpected acts of kindness can ripple outward in ways we may never fully see. The holidays can be joyful, but they can also be heavy, lonely, and complicated for so many people, and kindness has a way of cutting through all of that.

We start by reading some of the most moving stories of the year from the Random Acts of Kindness Reddit page, moments of humanity, generosity, and quiet care that reminded us how good people can be. From there, we share our own experiences with giving and receiving random acts of kindness, along with realistic ideas for how you can spread kindness in your everyday life.

To close, we read listener write-ins about moments that changed them, times when a stranger showed up, or when they were able to be that person for someone else.

Whether you’re celebrating, grieving, resting, or just getting through the day, this episode is a reminder that you never know what someone is carrying, and kindness can go a long way. We hope this episode feels like a soft place to land this holiday season. 🎄✨
