These PODCASTS have been a life line of sanity

Dr. Stacey has captured what I have experienced or witnessed in every episodes. As a Mental Health Clinician working in a historically white profession and spaces I have faced so many of these challenges alone..but no more...Being the Dot has made what I’ve felt and struggled with so real by share that I am not alone. Thanks for elevating these reflections and experiences with such grace.
