Thoughts on racial equality - an emotional episode.

I didn't know what i didn't know about the fight for racial equality until this week. I'm sharing with you what I've learned. I'm hoping to help start the conversation and help those that are wanting to understand understand a bit more.  The color blind theory: https://www.forbes.com/sites/janicegassam/2019/02/15/why-the-i-dont-see-color-mantra-is-hurting-diversity-and-inclusion-efforts/#7f2f5f2e2c8d [https://www.forbes.com/sites/janicegassam/2019/02/15/why-the-i-dont-see-color-mantra-is-hurting-diversity-and-inclusion-efforts/#7f2f5f2e2c8d] White privilege article: http://www.antiracistalliance.com/Unpacking.html [http://www.antiracistalliance.com/Unpacking.html] White Fragility article: https://www.uua.org/sites/live-new.uua.org/files/diangelo-white_fragility_and_the_rules_of_engagement.pdf [https://www.uua.org/sites/live-new.uua.org/files/diangelo-white_fragility_and_the_rules_of_engagement.pdf] Petitions, funds to donate to: https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/ [https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/]

My dragon journey: a tale of why we call our baby a dragon.

Today's episode explains how and why our baby got her nickname a dragon. How her first two years changed me. It was a hard two years. I'm hoping this episode helps mama's who may be struggling with hard babies (colic, non sleeping, constant crying). You are not alone!
