Season 2: Connection and Collective Stewardship

S2E1: Connection and Collective Stewardship

Welcome to Season 2 of the Connecting Across the Diaspora podcast!

2025 was a wild ride, but we had lots of enriching conversations that resulted in some reflection, realization, and hope for what we can do across the diasporas to ensure we feel seen, heard, and like we matter. In this episode I talk about (actually, ramble about) what we still need to work on to foster connection, how we get it right, and my hope for future conversations as we find our way to each other through heritage, customs, and ancestral guidance.

Thank you to my season 1 guests: Jeff Roe, Nagela Dales, Charleen Parkes, Jessica De Anda, and Alistair Scott. You have fundamentally influenced the evolution of my thinking, learning, and approach to collective care.

If you are of Black, Latino, or Indigenous descent, email me at catdpodcast@gmail.com to explore being a guest on the show!
