We wanted to acknowledge current events in the United States which have opened up wide-reaching discussions on racism and perspective, and it inadvertently ended up being our entire episode of discussion. While our sphere of influence may be small, and our claim to expertise on this subject even smaller, we feel that it is important to keep discussions going, even while we are in the midst of learning, and un-learning, or when figuring it all out is sometimes uncomfortable. This is not meant to be an episode about white-fragility, but more of a call to action for us, and for others, to be introspective, reflective, and examine where we can begin. That's exactly what this podcast is all about! Sharing perspective and telling it like it is in our realm of LIFE. After all, we can't hope to really develop stronger empathy and understanding until we are all willing to listen to each other's stories and lean in. And we suspect there may be others in similar circumstances as us! So if you're learning and un-learning, observing, and feeling, and growing too, let's start together.
