    Today we are time-travelling to the US in the sixties. Grace Carter was among the first black women to get access to a formerly "all white" school and "all male white" college. In this conversation she shares her first moments of courage, the impact it had for her life, and draws the lessons for today's world.

    * How to stay strong when you aren't liked or welcome

    * How to deflect hatred and bigotry
    * How to cultivate friends and allies
    * How to overcome feelings of inferiority as well as superiority

  • Having A Difficult Conversation

    This is one of the top skill you want to have in life. It will help you to turn around relationships, and it will put you in a position where other people will perceive you as a leader, it will help you to solve problems. This process works.
