We Should Talk About This is a podcast about unpacking shady practices in online business.
Join Learning Designer and IP Consultant Mariana Peña and Web Design Mentor and Global Inclusion Specialist Danbee Shin as we explore topics like time zone prejudice, anti-oppressive learning, pay equity, passport privilege, and interracial marriages. These are the kinds of conversations that usually happen behind the scenes, with personal stories, unscripted answers, and real-time reactions, and we’re inviting you to join us.
Season 1 is all about decolonizing online business. Listen now to rethink and reshape how we do business online.

What is possible when we run inclusive, decolonised businesses? How much better could our online business industry could be if we all took action on the different elements of decolonisation that we've covered this season? And what's the connection between decolonising our businesses and building the unshakable confidence that we need to build successful businesses?
