Being Luminary
By Angela Browne
In this podcast, you are going to get to hear a combination of my thoughts on how we can be luminary. I'm going to be talking across the vast topic area of diversity, equity and inclusion. I'm going to be shining a light on the complexities of holding marginalized and intersectional identities. I'm going to be in conversation with every day, but by no means ordinary, thought leaders and providing safe harbour for challenging and difficult ideas.
