Welcome to the Uncommon Conversations podcast, where we create comfort out of discomfort. This podcast is created to foster a safe space for people to come together and talk about topics that are typically avoided or absent from our every day lives. Some topics that will be covered are: relationships, opportunities, careers, the ideology of expectations, and more. Each topic will be laid out in a series where we will unpack each theme deeper and deeper every week for the duration of the series. Join us to begin the investment of building comfort out of our own discomfort.

    With recent events happening in our country, I thought it would be relevant to talk about abortions and the affect of the overturn of Rue v. Wade that happened on 6/24/22.

    Episode 6: Wrapping Up Opportunity

    As we wrap up the series of "Opportunity" I decided to bring a friend of mine to get her perspective on opportunity. The conversation holds space for her to be vulnerable and share what opportunity means for her, what types of opportunity she has experienced, and what she has learned through opportunities. Join us this week as we close the first series of Uncommon Conversation to close the loop on Opportunity.

    Episode 15: A Conversation about Sexuality

    Join me and one of my good friends in a conversation about sexuality and what it means to identify within the LGBTQIA+ community. We often don't share the challenges or nuances that exist with identifying anything other than heterosexual. I'm excited about this raw conversation because it allows others who may not be educated in this field or are a bit uncomfortable in asking questions, get some exposure about identifying a different type of way.  Follow us on instagram and share our page with others @_uncommonconversations
