The Conversation is the Relationship 🎙 Podcast 🎙
HOSTED BY LILLAH PENDDAH
Welcome to The Conversation is The Relationship Podcast!
I'm Lillah Penddah, CEO and entrepreneur of AFRO FACTS, where we create educational games to raise awareness about Black History and DEIB (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging).
Join me as we dive into all things DEIB, share my personal experiences as a Black woman in Alberta, and learn from interviews with diverse voices. We'll explore how to be better allies, uncover hidden biases, and reflect on our roles in systemic racism.
Get ready to reflect, acknowledge, and be inspired as we journey together toward greater awareness and change.
