<p>Today we reflect on the impact of the stories being shared and the strength they inspire. </p>
<p>In honor of International Women&#39;s month, I share my story of navigating the intersectionality of being a Black woman seeking support from the health system, encountering stereotypes, and the lasting, unseen, impacts of discrimination. I speak to the emotional impact of my experience and how I allowed it to influence my allyship, this podcast, and using my most powerful weapon, my voice.

Barely scratching the surface - Ashely Allen and the Indigenous experience

Time to get comfortable with the uncomfortable! 
I will be sharing my lived experiences of not growing up around other Black people, increasing my own awareness around systemic racism, and interviewing members of different minority groups from all facets of life to hear their stories and learn through the lens of their experiences.
We will be going deep as we answer the questions of how can we be a better ally? What is it that we don’t know, we don’t know? And how are we unknowingly contributing to systemic racism and discrimination? in order to tap into the power we have to change the world.
