  • Flourishing at TEDx
    2024/09/05
    In this episode, Judy sits down with the amazing Minal Bopaiah, an award-winning author and equity strategist, to chat about their takeaways from a TEDx event in DC themed "Terra Incognita". The event touched on a wide array of topics and this conversation reflects that! Tune in for a laid-back yet thought-provoking chat about the sketchy side of MDMA-assisted therapies, Christian nationalism in America, what's hype and what's real around AI technology, and how empathy and accountability play a part in restorative justice. Taking a step back and putting on their facilitator hats, they touch on the event's setup, the styles of different speakers, and the unfair expectation put on people of color to always be "inspirational". 💌 Have a question, comment, or a recommendation for a perfect guest?
