About this Episode
Interesting conversation this week with Cetvies who is a human rights activist. We discussed child marriage, forms of trafficking and exploitation as well as hate and violence against the LGBTQ community abroad.

57 min - 47: Become Better Through it - Donald Thompson
About this Episode
This week’s guest, Donald Thompson, digs right in and talks about how growing up the son of a football coach helped guide him to become the man he is today. He treats every day as game day and remembers to celebrate the small wins along his journey. He knows firsthand that the game is not won when everyone is watching, it’s won through relentless practice, in quiet empty stadiums where the only critic is yourself. Donald reminds us that words, narratives and clear objectives matter and the responsibility as to how they are handled are ours alone.

About this Episode
Today we get to hear from Heather’s sister and niece. They share some information and daily challenges faced when a young child is diagnosed with a developmental disorder. While the challenges started out scary with years of effort massive progress has been made. One major takeaway from this episode is that we are all different in one way or another. Let’s remember that before we go around judging others.

31 min - 41: Ableism - Heather, Ninah, and Ben
About this Episode
Ableism talk makes us think. This week we talked about ways we can be more inclusive and more respectful of those who have different needs than us. It’s so important for us to ask rather than assume. We must not fall into the pitfall of marginalizing incredible capable people simply because their capabilities look different than ours.
