Description

Our brains are wired to focus on what is wrong, but this means we often miss the cultural and ethical wisdom right in front of us about what is working, good, and new to find real solutions to our problems. This podcast features inspiring personal development tips and stories of overlooked ethical and cultural wisdom told live from incredible unconventional leaders, as well as curated from original poetry, social justice book reviews, and overlooked historical recaps, written and produced by Christina Blacken, founder of The New Quo Learning Community, which is a weekly email newsletter and monthly coaching community that helps mission driven folks use the power of personal storytelling and overlooked ethical and cultural wisdom to create a better future. The Tell it Proud podcast will inspire you with overlooked topics that crusty, inequitable leaders often want erased or ignored, because they change the status-quo for the better. *Formally known as the Sway Them In Color Podcast, which you can find older episodes of with that title.
