I'd like to invite you to check out my other show, mentioned on the podcast called I Am America presented by Tracee Ellis Ross. This show tells the story of ten extraordinary people and how their journey to better understand themselves led them to create community for others. I love this show. I am so honored to have had the chance to work on it and I think you'll love it. Check it out and give it a rating/review while you're at it. It helps other people find the show.

You can also do the same for this show if you feel so inclined!
