Our goalThe Brave Pod was a weekly podcast series where we aimed to amplify the voices of young people, women, LGBTQIA+ folks, immigrants, BIPOC, entrepreneurs and visionaries who are dreaming big and making an impact in their communities. We explored themes of identity, bravery, and radical self-love.
The Brave Pod was an initiative that ran between 2020 and 2022. We are grateful to our outstanding host, Ketia Jeune, and to our over 100 guests for sharing their stories with us. You can rewatch all of our Brave Pod episodes below! |
