301. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Are NOT Bad Words w/Brandy Coleman

Welcome to a new season of The Lucky Few Podcast! We’re starting off strong with an episode all about… diversity, equity, and inclusion. Because these are more than just buzz words, friends. Let’s talk about it:

  • What is DEI? What is it NOT?

  • Recent changes to DEI standards.. have we seen these changes in our own lives?

  • The intersection of race and disability

We’re also introducing our guest host for the season.. Brandy Coleman! She’s an advocate, educator, wife, and mother of seven - including her daughter with Down syndrome! Brandy works with the Down Syndrome Diagnosis Network to make sure all families feel seen, heard, and supported. She’s a fierce advocate for BIPOC families and we’re SO grateful for her perspective this season.
