I will be taking a 3 week break, because I AM TIRED! Very excited about some new things to come. Until then, enjoy some older episodes that have meant a lot to me.

This week I welcome back my friend, Erin Jones (@afroeducator on TikTok). Erin is a peacemaker in every sense of the word. She is the author of, “Bridges to Heal US, Stories and Strategies for Racial Healing," and has 3 TEDx talks available on Youtube. She has gained an incredible amount of wisdom as she has navigated this world as a bi-racial woman that grew up overseas and speaks 4 languages. Her work as a lifelong educator continues to this day, as she is now a consultant who talks about equity in schools and non-profits. And as I found out in our conversation, she's working on a new book called "More Than a Race".

To access her book or TEDx talks, follow the links below:

This week, I welcome my new friend Sam, known as "Dope Dad" on TikTok. Sam is the kind of person that is deconstructing all the things.
