Its Be.Human's 1 year podcast anniversary!  Briana and Kevin celebrate the journey, discuss what it's like to record virtually and literally hundreds of miles away, and how the podcast has impacted the folks who listen. This is a short episode to say Thank You to all our fans, supporters, and guests. Without you all this podcast wouldn't be possible. 

On this weeks episode we have Justin Davis on the show! 

Justin is the CEO of Spectrum Labs, an organisation focused on mitigating online hate speech, making the internet a safer and more valuable place for everyone. More importantly, he’s someone who has made mistakes in the past, learned from them, and evolved into a better human because of them. 

Justin started his career on the sales floor at BestBuy, dropped out of college to pursue a career in tech sales and went on become the CEO of his own company, Spectrum Labs. He’s gotten to this point thanks to a growth mindset and the innate ability to use the low points in life as a launching pad to greater things. 

Huge thanks to Justin for being vulnerable and speaking openly about the challenges he’s faced, understanding his triggers and focusing on what makes you happy by developing a “to-feel” list. Make sure to tune in and share with a friend or family member!

This week episode features Frank Murphy a senior engineering leader who speaks candidly about his journey through parenting a child with disabilities and the trauma of losing a child. 

Frank shares how those in the workplace can hold space for others experiencing grief and what families can do as they journey through the stages. 

In this weeks episode, Briana and Kevin discuss the power of taking action, what stops us from taking action, how to overcome fear, get the ball rolling and reap the benefits of being someone who consistently pushes past their comfort zone.
