Being HumanKind: Choosing Courage, Compassion, and Clarity in a Distracted World

What if kindness wasn’t something you did, but a way you lived?

In a world that glorifies busyness and rewards distraction, Being HumanKind is a call to slow down, pay attention, and live with courage, compassion, and clarity. Strategist, storyteller, and creative leader Justin Ahrens offers a field guide for rediscovering what matters most, one small, intentional act at a time.

Drawing from three decades of leadership, creativity, parenting, and personal growth, Justin shares stories that are both deeply human and refreshingly practical. From lessons learned on cross-country rides for clean water to quiet moments of stillness that changed everything, Being HumanKind shows how kindness isn’t weakness, it’s movement, endurance, and the blueprint for a meaningful life.

Each chapter blends story, science, and soul, ending with reflection prompts, simple practices, and weekly challenges that help you turn insight into action. Whether you lead a team, run a household, or simply want to show up more fully in your own life, this book will help you:

  • Reconnect with what’s real in an age of overwhelm.

  • Lead with empathy, clarity, and courage.

  • Create ripple effects of kindness that change culture, work, and relationships.

More than a book, Being HumanKind is a movement, an invitation to live with purpose, lead with presence, and remember that being human and being kind aren’t separate practices.

They’re how we build a life that matters.
