Who We Are Inside
Who We Are Inside
Podcast Description
We all have the people we present as in our different spaces, and then we have who we actually are on the inside. The important parts of who we are on the inside may change, but we are expected to show up as the same on the outside. We recognize that maintaining both who we are and who we are expected to be is exhausting. This podcast provides space for us to share who we really are and invites us to be human instead of being all these roles that we are asked to be on any given day.
