Ep. 11 - Learning to have a different Conversation

Let's have a different conversation.....about race!  Conversations about race are incredibly uncomfortable, which is exactly why we ought to have more meaningful conversations about it.  Why on a mental health podcast?  Because your discomfort is a sign you have work to do on yourself and this is a way to do just that.  So let's dig in and have a different conversation about race, especially us white people who avoid them the most as many studies have shown.  When we show up better when we show up where it's uncomfortable.....we grow, expand and elevate our life experience.   Here is a link to the book that I am referencing in this episode -  Nurture Shock: https://www.amazon.com/NurtureShock-New-Thinking-About-Children/dp/0446504130 The Belonging Blueprint Connect with your host Ross Leppala!
