Necessary conversations!!

These are the kind of discussions we should be having with friends and family all the time! I’m so glad there is a podcast like this that uplifts youth voice while talking about such pervasive issues.

Love it!!

As a youth voice, I appreciate hearing other young speaking of change and social constructs in society that need to be broken down. It all starts with one conversation and these young voices are doing it. BEST PODCAST EVER!!
