On this bonus episode, I’m bringing back one of the most downloaded episodes of the podcast to highlight an incredibly potent and powerful conversation with activist, educator and facilitator, Andréa Ranae.

Andréa Ranae is a vision-led facilitator and coach who believes that together, we rise. She is deeply committed to doing her part in cultivating a world that works for everyone and does so by placing her work at the intersections of personal growth, social justice and conscious business.

We may have recorded this in November 2018, but the state of the world is the same now as it was then (and for many many years before when it comes to racism in this country).

Things we discuss in today’s episode:

The pitfalls of personal development
How to be a true activist
Where to start when it comes to making change
Oppression — especially when it comes to racism, ageism, transphobia, sexism etc
A profound way to look at privilege
Cultural individualism
White privilege
Creating space to have emotion about the state of the world
