In this episode of PlayGround, I interview Rose Deighton, who I met through the IDEAS Fellowship at Emory University. Rose is a graduate student at Emory studying Sufism and Gender. In this episode, we discuss Rose's childhood in a small town in Canada, her figure skating years, and her interests in the intersections of feminism, religion, and spirituality. We connect figure skating to her academic aspirations of becoming a teacher and discuss the meaning of life. After listening to this episode, you may have some existential thoughts and start re-thinking your life's purpose, so you do not want to miss this episode!
