In this episode, you’ll hear heartfelt stories and practical insights from Kim Schmidt, Deb Schick, Eric Anderson, and Cheryl George as they share what they’ve learned along the way. Together, they explore language through a lens of abundance and normalcy, showing how small shifts in words can create big shifts in culture. You’ll discover some of their “prickly words” and how they’ve made changing language an engaging experience—one that everyone can take part in and benefit from. Tune in for an inspiring conversation about the power of words and the communities they help shape.
