As society we tend to run away from the hard conversations that are necessary to have in order to have effective change and this causes a disconnect in being able to truly dismantle divides that have passed down for many generations! Once a week, I will seek someone to have an uncomfortable conversation with and my hope is to have a bigger understanding of the disparities that plague our world. Learning how to listen better, empathize with stories that we cannot relate to, then we will try to always offer solutions. The sky is the limit when it comes to discomfort so buckle up for an hour ride once a week and make sure you are truly taking off your shoes so you can walk a mile in someone else’s shoes.

@Kosmicxkarma and I met back in the Kathleen Clay and Webkinz days (who knows how many years ago). Throughout the years we have randomly seen each other throughout the city and more recently through our lack of silence on the topic of systemic racism. See, the plan was to solely focus on having her educate me on the misconceptions that are associated with black alt culture but as usual we explored other connections to this issue. This culture receives excessive scrutiny because of their expre...

PART 2 of Predators, Men, Justice.... Amplifying @ncsafetyalliance_gso: A Focus on Safety, Privacy & Transparency w. Devon & Alexa
This episode is simply what I can only describe as necessary.
