Welcome to the GRIT Podcast Getting Real; Immersed in Truth -Intersecting hard conversations with the gospel. My goal is to seek and speak the truth about what’s going on around us. Join host Robrenna Redl bi-weekly as she invites you to go deeper in genuine, unpolished conversations. Episodes will include dialogue with friends, strangers, those I agree with, and those I don't. When applicable, I'll provide resources to help process the discussions. I'll also have a one-on-one with you about what I've learned from my experiences, the people around me, and how the gospel's message intersects with our everyday lives. Check out my other podcast - Mama, Take Heart: Understanding Your GenZ Girl.

Getting Real About Cultural Curiosity & the Benefits of Immersive Experiences
What’s in a name? Dr. Louie Yang, also known as Dr. Louie, joins me in a conversation about cultural curiosity and the benefits of an immersive experience. In this episode, we discuss the evolution of his name and what sounds like a seemingly innocent question, where you are from. Finally, we discuss the benefits of cultural curiosity and how immersive experiences provide an understanding of another person’s story and authentic relationships.
