Episode 2: Reflective Step 1: Noticing the Unseen | Six Stages Framework Journal Series


Welcome to Episode 2 of the Six Stages Framework Reflective Journal Series with Dr. Shungu M’gadzah!

https://youtu.be/Yn-sI3krxuA


📄 Video Description 


In this episode, we explore Reflective Step 1: Noticing the Unseen — the powerful practice of slowing down, observing our environments, and recognising the voices, experiences, and stories that are missing from our daily lives.


🌱 This step is all about awareness.

Who’s not in the room? Whose perspective are you not hearing? What assumptions are you unconsciously making?


Using the Six Stages Framework (SSF), we shift from passive awareness to active noticing — a foundational practice for any personal or professional journey in diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB).


🧠 Journal Prompt:

“What identities or perspectives do I rarely hear from — and why?”
