About this listen
What if the tension you feel during a hard conversation isn’t a sign to shut down — but a signal to go deeper?
In this episode, I’m sharing one of the most uncomfortable weekends of my life — and why it turned into one of the most powerful. From navigating blind spots in a cross-cultural interaction to unpacking allyship, identity, and what it means to truly listen, this is an invitation to lean into discomfort — not run from it.
We talk about:
- Why I don’t use the term “race” the way society does
- What productive tension actually feels like in real time
- Why real allyship requires more than reading books
- The emotional reality of being a Black mother in America
- How honest dialogue can create real understanding — and real change
🧠 Reflection Questions:
- When was the last time you felt tension in a conversation and stayed present instead of shutting it down?
- What part of you gets activated in those moments — and why?
- How can you create or hold space for open dialogue, even when it feels hard?
This is your invitation to stay open, stay grounded — and most of all, stay in the conversation.
