Palmside Chat with Ambassador Michelle Kwan is a podcast about diplomacy -- what it is and why it's important. When people think diplomacy, they think big countries and big capitals and big issues. But important work goes on in places like Belize, which is a close U.S. partner on global issues that range from security to climate to countering human trafficking. So pull up a chair and join Michelle Kwan -- former Olympic skater now ambassador -- under the palm tree!
