For our sixth Episode, I catch up with Claire Weaver who’s a friend from Rhodes College where we both attended undergrad in Memphis, TN.
We talk about how our upbringings in Mississippi and Massachusetts respectively influenced much of the way we were raised talking about and engaging and also not talking about and not engaging conversations around politics and more specifically race.
Building upon her childhood and transformative college years, Claire shares with us how her marriage today has been made stronger by sitting down with her more conservative leaning husband and talking about politics.
In a time of seemingly unlimited division, it’s important to understand the unifying power of intentional conversation around difficult topics.
