​​We hope these episodes give you an opportunity to check in, reflect, and process how you are experiencing these times. We learn a lot by being in conversation, and by listening to diverse perspectives. Please continue these conversations with your communities, your families, your teams, your organizations. The more we speak of these topics, the more we normalize their existence and complexity; providing the crucial antidote to erasure and division.
