The Revolutionary Conversation Guru - Hannah Pillow

In this segment, you will hear from the Revolutionary Conversation Guru - Hannah Pillow. We talk about the importance of cross-cultural communications and how it is so needed to bridge gaps.   WHO IS HANNAH? She is South African, of Indian heritage, and was born and raised in the city of Durban, South Africa. At the age of 18, I married into a Pakistani family in South Africa. I lived with and amongst them for seven years. This was my first ever experience with living within a new culture, it was the first time The marriage lasted seven years but taught me a lifetime of value when it came to understanding difference. At the age of 26, I moved to Istanbul, Turkey, where I lived for 2 years. In Istanbul, I interacted and lived with many cultures from all over the world. My experience with cross-cultural communication grew even more and I started noticing microaggressions and biases in practice. At the age of 29, I got married to a very British, a white man, and moved to Manchester UK, where I currently live. Moving to the UK and marrying into a white family opened my eyes even more to how we need to address the elephant in the room! I used to feel like I was wearing a neon shine around my neck and everyone in the room was pointing at me because I was ‘different, I became the subject of microaggression and unconscious bias.   Well-meaningly, people want to learn about me and my ‘culture’, but they would go about it completely wrong, making me feel the need to defend who I truly am to them. This experience thought me that there is a huge gap between the knowledge we are thought about stereotypes, microaggressions, unconscious biases, and how to use this information practically to create meaningful connections and bridge misunderstandings.  With all my first-hand experiences and education, I have created a new, unique program designed with the mission of Harvesting understanding with cross-cultural communication between family members and close relationships so that we can unite with clarity and understanding.   HANNAH'S CONTACT:   IG: https://www.instagram.com/revolutionaryconversationguru/?hl=en LinkedIn: Hannah Pillow   Sign up for a Freebie:  https://mailchi.mp/05a24c5b1ffd/howtoapologise GENESIS'S INFO [email protected]   https://linktr.ee/GenesisAmarisKemp    SUPPORT   https://www.buymeacoffee.com/GenesisAKemp CALL TO ACTION Subscribe to GEMS with Genesis Amaris Kemp Channel, Hit the notifications so you don't miss any content, and share with family/friends.    **REMEMBER - You do not have to let limitations or barriers keep you from achieving your success.
