There is an old Primary song that says, \\u201cI want to be kind to\\xa0everyone,\\xa0for that is right, you see. So I say to myself, \\u2018Remember this: Kindness begins with me.\'\\u201d Melaney Tagg, our guest on this week\\u2019s episode, is a living example of what this\\xa0Primary song\\xa0looks like\\xa0in action.\\xa0When she observed the contention running rampant in her county\\u2019s school board meetings, Tagg knew she couldn\'t stand idly by\\u2014she had to, as President Oaks put it, "seek to moderate and unify,"\\xa0knowing that kindness\\xa0needed\\xa0to begin with her.
